mmm chocolate

Normally I just let the templar zombies take out the generators in Origins, but I was running at the excavation site stairs by the MP40 in No Mans Land, with Semtex's and an Instakill going. The templar zombies had just made it to generator three so I lobbed two semtex's over the map and took 'em all out. Thanks Insta-kill.

Just did it now, pretty cool. You're pressing 1 1 5.

Totally, I was going to add this, but I like people to have to use their brain a little too. I wait until its past 3/4 full then step off. When I said this "I know 10pts from Templars is petty, but it adds up when you want to Pack a Punch the Mauser before round 8." .... I should've said 'want to have Juggernog by round 4' Another thing to look out for is when they send you three templars at once in a bunch. Going down on round 1 is no fun.

Hey everyone! How's it going? I've had a bunch of time off from work lately and have had time to comment more often on here...and I think I may have a few more tips to share to make Origins a little more forgiving. I thought of posting this after watching a 'well-known' zombies youtube persons video guide to Solo point building on the first few rounds of Origins. They missed a few things in the vid that I thought I would point out just in case some of you here wanted the info as well. On round 1, if you turn on the generator ASAP and kill Templars by knifing them you can get an extra 100. Most people only kill three or four before the generator is turned on. You can kill ten total. What I'm saying is, start the generator and step off the platform before it turns on, knife more Templars while off the platform (I stand at QR). I stand back on the platform at around eight kills and then get two more and the generator turns on. By now, the zombies will have gotten in and you'll notice it times out pretty well. I pick up the 2x from the reward box and line up two zombies, I then duck, and shoot six times in the stomach. (I know u can do 8 on legs, but you run the chance of missing) knife the first zombie and then shoot three more into the second zombie in line, then knife. Same for the rest of the round. Then pick up shovel and Maxis brain. You might get a nuke or an instakill, but as long as you have 2550 (doors 500 and 750 plus MP40 1300) while leaving the first room (going to generator 2) in between round one and two, you will be ok. Anyway, I dont want to get too in-depth, but killing the Templars by stepping off the pad and lining up the zombies are good ways to get some extra points. I know 10pts from Templars is petty, but it adds up when you want to Pack a Punch the Mauser before round 8. On round 2, its 20 Templar kills. I leave a slow zombie at the end of round 2 and stand in the corner near wunderfizz at generator 2 and kill as many Templars as I can before it gets too nuts with one shot headshots with the MP40 before letting it turn on. I haven't tried it on round three, but I assume its 30 Templar kills allowed.

Origins. Origins. Origins. World War feel that brought back the WaW vibe. Thats all I wanted.

Thanks! I like the finished look of the perk icons.

Yesterday I had all the staffs built and was going for the achievement for building the Ultimate Staffs... ..was filling the last staff and had it done, all i had to do was pick it up, but i got swarmed by templars and got trapped by the changing walls and died. It even said it was built when u hit select. That was a good waste of two hours.

Wait, I've seen that one up on the Generator 3 platform by the window before. Is that the one you mean? ...nah. That ones correct. In the video i saw, the guy was walking around with a raygun shooting the spots to show u where they were, and he shot just in front of where u buy semtex.

Has this been mentioned anywhere? I know theres better threads to add this to, but has anyone agreed that the zombies storyline, and the ending cutscene is a metaphor? (I did read someone post that on here)... ...but has anyone made the connection that its a metaphor for video games being 'for children'?

Keep the Mauser and horde them into groups of two. Dont use bullets unless they're going to hit more than one zombie. Every bullet that goes through a zombie and hits another, is only half as strong when it hits the second zombie. matty, you can hit them a few more times on each round...round 2 is twelve bullets, round 3 is two full Mauser clips I believe.

I was just comparing the two maps we have, reddit and here....and I think yours is missing the one at generator 4 Also...the video we were using before was wrong i guess...they showed one at Semtex (by gen 3)... And there isnt one there.

Just encountered this in solo: Bought four perks: jug, staminup, mulekick, and speed cola. Then picked up doubletap from the reward box. Used ice staff to get zombie blood and found glowing mound. Picked up perk bottle and exited zombie blood. Went to buy a perk at wunderfizz and it tells me i may only have five perks. This has never happened before and i assume its a better stategy to just get doubletap from the reward box for your fourth perk instead of making it your fifth. This way you dont have to find two glowing mounds before it will let you buy the sixth.

I want a little mini Raygun

Nice!!

Haha ok. (Weasel is using an old paper to hide his drawings in)

Pretty sure its totally random. In solo, I've dug up a weapon from a regular grave, and the same mound appeared instantly before I could even pick up the weapon.

I think that was just in there for a bit of historical reference only. Just to show MotD was around that date.

Can someone please post all the images?

My guess,...IF this is the last zombies map...is that they didnt have anything left to foreshadow. i.e. something to show 'under' the giant zombie blueprint. Cuz its the end. So they used to origins poster.

What? I just stated its not possible.

I just went back and looked, in theatre mode it shows the second one spawning right as I pick up the second zombie blood...so I would say its not possible to have two in one zombie blood. Even with the graphical glitches...this looks legit.

...

thanks man...didnt mean to hi jack. just here to help

Alright, well the periods applied that the sentence continued making me think you didn't know the answer :roll: ..if you've been reading the thread...you'll notice I've been one of the main contributors, you could've just assumed I knew this info already. Done ...plus why would i ask about getting two perks if i had no idea where the first one would be.

All I was asking was about the two in one zombie blood. But anyway... :roll:
