Origins
Witness the origins of Group 935, as an ancient evil is unleashed upon the battlefields of World War I.
CoDz Code of Conduct
Listed below is the Code of Conduct.
Please don't just read numbered points and say "I'd never advertise!" and skip over it, because there are things you may not realize are categorized as advertising, or anything else, that are and you might have already broken them. If you have any questions regarding this, please ask, and have a good time and be sure to follow the rules!
1. ADVERTISING [ADV]:
Rule: Advertising to other users inside the CoDz Forum, whether it be via a post, personal message, or profile/signature links, to buy or view any products, websites, or other service is strictly prohibited. Non-intrusive links in signatures to personal YouTube accounts may be allowed, but that is case-to-case and each will be reviewed individually.
Consequence: The infringing user’s account will be banned, as well as the IP address. Any post with the intentions of advertising will be immediately and permanently deleted.
Example: If you are a spam bot, a hired advertiser, or a desperate website/business owner, this may apply to you. Signing up and making your only post a promotion for your zombie gameplay YouTube channel is breaking the rule. However simply sending links to a fellow forum goer who wants to know where to buy a capture card is not breaking this rule, PMing your buddy a link to a funny YouTube video isn't, etc.
2. DOUBLE ACCOUNTS [DBLE]:
Rule: Creating another account when a a user already has one account on CoDz is not allowed. There is little to no need for a separate account. If you've forgotten your password and need access back to your main account, use the Forgot Password link. Should there be a logical reason outside of forgetting credentials for the double account, contact a staff member immediately with details of the situation..
Consequence: The secondary account created by the original user will be permanently banned given with evidence of double accounts. In addition, the original account held by the user will be temporarily banned as well. Using the secondary account to avoid a suspension/ban on the main account will result in both accounts being permanently banned.
Example: A user creates a double account because they've been banned. If that account matches up the original user and no case has been made to the staff about the reason for the double account, both accounts will be banned after contacting the user.
3. SPAMMING [SPAM]: Spamming is defined as many things, and all of them aren’t allowed. As a CoDz user, you should hold yourself to a high standard and use common sense when posting.
Duplicate Posts -
Rule: Creating a thread that discusses a topic that has already been brought up in another thread is generally frowned upon, as each user is responsible for finding the pre-existing thread and making their remarks there. Cross-posting violations (making more than one post of the same question/answer across multiple forums) is prohibited.
Consequence: The infringing duplicate thread will be either merged (with the original thread), locked, or deleted, depending on the situation. When dealing with two duplicate threads, the staff will sometimes exercise their own personal judgement with regard to the thread’s posts, to avoid conversations being broken up and posts losing their cohesion, as all the comments in both threads are merged and arranged by the date they were posted.
Cross-posting violations will be dealt with by deleting all cross-posted threads. Users are responsible for figuring out the appropriate section in which to post their topic. If you have any trouble you may ask any staff member for advice!
We always welcome PMs from the users!
Example: If two threads are created that both discuss the exact same element of a newly released Zombie Map trailer, they become ‘duplicate posts’, as they consist of identical, or very similar, material. However, if someone makes a thread about, for example, who they think the Pentagon Thief is, and then someone else makes a thread in which they argue that it is actually someone completely different, they would not be breaking the rule.
Moreover, if someone made a thread that came to the same conclusion as the first user’s thread did, it still wouldn’t necessarily break the rule, as long as they brought new evidence to the table (or reevaluated old evidence) while doing so. If they reach the same conclusion, then they will be merged, in which case the older thread will remain, and the newer thread will become a reply to the older post.
Post Pumping -
Rule: Any user that makes a post just to increase their own post count is considered disruptive to the community, and is interfering with the other members’ usage of the CoDz forum.
Consequence: Violations will be dealt with on a case-by-case basis - some users will be warned verbally by PM, others may receive an official warning, and posts/threads may also be deleted (which will make your post count drop again!). Repeat offenders will suffer a Permanent Ban of their account on the forum.
Example: If a user makes a post saying “I agree,” or “We know,” or something similar and they do not further the conversation or productivity of the thread, that would be grounds for deletion of the post. The specific details of post pumping are left for staff to decide case-by-case, as there are a broad range of possibilities, which are quite dependent on the circumstances.
4. FLAMING [FLAME]:
Rule: Posts, signatures, avatars, or PMs that are intended to harass, threaten, embarrass or cause the distress or discomfort to another member of the CoDz Forum Community or any other individual or entity is unacceptable. (For this reason, the emoticon known as “facepalm” has been removed from the forum.)
Consequence: In some cases, warnings may be issued, but flaming is likely to result in Permanent Banning. It is therefore advisable to always be respectful to your fellow members; this does not mean you cannot disagree with someone, but you do not need to tear a person down in order to prove your point, so be careful with sarcasm! The response “I was only joking” will not get you much sympathy.
Example: If a user says to another on the forum that they are stupid, dumb, illogical, incompetent, etc., that is an example of a user tearing another down, and is considered to be ‘flaming’. Even sarcastically saying “Wow, you’re a bright one, aren’t you..” or “Did you figure that out on your own?” would qualify as a form of harassment.
5. OFFENSIVE CONTENT [OFF]:
Rule: Using offensive language in any context is not allowed here at the CoDz Forum. We believe that our intelligent members can make their points and offer their contributions WITHOUT the necessity of vulgarities. Included in this would be racism, sexism, or any other form of discrimination that may end up causing the distress or discomfort of a user or any group in general. Along with offensive language, displaying or linking to offensive content is not allowed at CoDz. Please be sensitive towards others and how they may react to sensitive material.
Consequence: Posts, signatures, or profiles containing offensive language, content, or links will be edited and/or deleted by the Forum Moderators and Warnings will be issued as appropriate. Repeat violations of this policy may result in more severe actions, up to and including Permanent Banning.
Example: You can come up with your own examples for sensitive language, I trust we all have at least a few in our heads, but simply starring out a letter or putting a strike through the word does not excuse its usage, such as f*ck, sh*t, etc. An example of offensive content could be an avatar of the Twin Towers falling with the caption “Burn baby burn!” This is very offensive to many people, and although it may not be so to you, please respect the feelings of other users.
Examples of offensive links include Pornographic, Racial, Defamation, or any other derogatory content. If it does not pass our CoC do not link to it on our site.
6. SIGNATURES [SIG]:
Rule: A user’s signature may only be 5 lines high, 15 pixels high per line and 65 pixels wide per line. A signature must follow all of the above guidelines concerning offensive language and material, and also concerning advertising.
Consequence: If a user creates a signature that violates the above rules, they will first be contacted and asked to change their signature. If they do not comply, someone will change it for them. Particularly horrid offenses will be dealt with by staff in an appropriate manner.
Example: A “good” signature could contain a few links to some threads (as long as they follow previous rules), zombie round numbers, a small image, or something personal, such as a saying or quote. A “bad” signature would contain any annoying “flashy” .GIFs, or any content that would not comply with previous CoC rules.

I'm having a very hard time with this map, and I would consider myself slightly above average at zombies. Has anyone found places to train besides the generators? At the moment I'm running Generator 4, right by Jug.

I have noticed that on round 4, after whatever lone robot finishes his pass, all 3 always come on round 4. Last night i noticed they all came on round 8. Is it a given that they come every 4 rounds? Or is there some variety to their dance? Leaving 'rain fire' out of the equation, of course. Does anyone have any further insight into this? Edit: 1 reason that i ask is that I've been trying, against all reason, to attempt a 4-soul-box-full a.s.a.p. (with no luck) and these blighters ruin my day often. I've learned to not try until 10, but I'm trying to push the proverbial envelope. On 4, i often get Odin, all three, start to fill center boxes, Odin a…

In the map origins one of it's most unique features is it's totally revolutionized weaponry, weapons like the scorpion evo, the scar, and many other weapons seem to be mostly from the futuristic time period, with the exception of: -The m14 -The MP40 -The STG -The python -The type 25 -The galil -the FAL and -the m1927 Every other weapon is either presumed to be built in origins or crafted from the far future. (I did not look into every gun, sue me if I miss one or two) Now look at this quote from maxis's radio: Ludvig Maxis: When 115 is channeled towards the ancient stones, an energy field appears to drag unknown objects into our reality. Is it possibl…

Vril, Element 115, and Origins Being relatively new to the whole Zombies experience I am finding the plethora of theories and assessments surrounding the Zombie storyline fascinating. One of the most ubiquitous subjects is Vril. This substance has captured my attention had has had me scouring the darkest corners of the internet and I thought I would share my thoughts. The Vril Society I’d like to start IRL if I may with an organisation known as The Vril Society (VS). There a differing opinions on when VS was first formed, it is either in Venice in 1917 or in Germany after WW1 (In either case it is purported that it was these occult beliefs that the Naz…

I looked through the forum and have not seen an idea like this. if it is in the wrong section or has been discussed please remove or lock. it is long so be prepared lol Every story needs a hero. As you can see by the title I believe the true zombie hero to be our mad doctor / aetheral being Richtofen! What say you? Im waaaay off? Well, let me share my thoughts of where the story / ee / canon is heading. The first reference I will make is MotD. There is division amongst the forum on how this story was connected to the main story line. While the reasons being many including the discovery of 115 in our story to the announcer in that map / time frame. To that I say…

Hello,Marko here bringing you another thread(No,really?).This time,I'll try to express my ideas of how I think the map might be,and the things it might have.It will be a "big" read,but I'm almost sure it will worth your time.Anyway,let's not waste any more words... Map What I'll talk about here is simple.Very simple.We all know "Origins" is the Game Mode,right?So,what I'm thinking right now,is that the map will be called Le Tombeau.You know,almost everyone talked about the map being it(including the infamous PTG),and it makes sense now.The ancient ruins they're going to give us might be this "Tomb".Maybe a Alien/Vril tomb.The mystery involving this place will…

When making the ultimate staffs, do you need to build all of the regular ones first, before one can be upgraded? So could I build the fire staff and then upgrade it, without building any others?

I just wanted to make this thread to throw this out there because it seems not many people know this- If you did not know, once you make a normal staff into an Ultimate staff, you can charge an attack from it that consumes many shots. You do this by holding your trigger button as all the parts of the staff begin glowing from top to bottom. Once the crystal of the staff is glowing, that means your fully charged shot is ready. Each staff has a unique charged shot. MY FAVORITE AND IMO THE MOST POWERFUL ONE IS THE WIND CHARGE. You release a tornado at a target location. This tornado will suck in zombies that are a good 5-10 feet from it (so it has a hitbox that extends …

"Northern France, 1918. The archaeologists of the Reich unearth an ancient evil beyond their wildest nightmares." This is the description of Origins on the Call of Duty: Black Ops Facebook page, so I decided to do a little Google search and found that in 2010, during a road building project, a tomb was discovered. The Killian Shelter. It was a Pompeii-esque situation, a trench in World War I caves in in a matter of seconds, killing all inside and leaving everything as it was at the time of the incident. 34 German soldiers are killed instantly, and 13 were hauled out shortly after, leaving the remaining 21 for over 90 years. The roof of the shelter contains a …

Okay, last night while going to sleep, I was listening to the Easter Egg Songs, and Abracadavre came on. While listening to the lyrics, a thought came to me. Here it is: Treyarch told us about this ending years ago (literally 2 years ago). However, they did not directly reveal it (when has Treyarch EVER done that). Here are the lyrics (read with the Origins ending in mind): Okay. So if that didn't convince you, then look at this. The main bits we are looking for are the bits regarding "In My Head". I would like to draw your attention to these lines in particular: I believe these lines to be the key point of this song. They mean …

I have a shocking discovery! In a few of the frames in the trailer, it shows something that looks like nacht. It could have been built in WW1 neglected (that's why it has a run down look to it in WaW/BO) and left, until the events of nacht happen in WW2 Now I know the name is german, but this was a minigame about NAZI zombies, and they were in france at the time, so the language / name = country could also work for invaded places. This is a big revelation! France could be it's original location. If anyone bothers to ask why there were German vehicles around it, you have to have a look at a history book, germany occupied france in WW2, so they might have been inves…

I remember seeing various posts and comments on how people weren't going to press the button until Origins comes out to see if the outcome will effect Origins. So I was wondering since Origins is out now, has the Buried endgame effected Origins in any way? Personally, I don't think it has/will but if it has, please comment on any differences you've noticed.

So now that Origins is out, I really enjoy playing as Richtofen as opposed to Takio or Nikolai etc. It's mainly because Richtofen seems to be more normal and level headed on Origins, compared to maybe Kino or WaW zombies. For example, during your game as Richtofen, he'll give you nice backstory information or useful tips about the exvcavation site. One quote that you can hear at the start of the game is something like 'We don't have a lot of time. We need to get the 115 conversion generators online' which isn't really backstory, but he is helping the other characters through his knowledge, which doesn't happen a lot later on. And inside the robots' heads, I've heard …

Noticed that someone posted a link over on the Activision forum to a reddit thread by a guy named CustomSocks. http://www.reddit.com/r/CODZombies/comments/1y9g6a/elemental_fire_zombie_video_proof/ I am not sure what to make of it myself. It looks authentic enough, but even if it WAS a real 'Fire Zombie', what purpose would it even serve in the game? I would also have thought that, after all the high round games that have been had on that particular map, especially in the crazy place, you would have thought that something like this would have been found by now. I call graphical glitch.

Hey when I was playing Origins a while ago and was going to Pack a Punch I noticed that Richtofen stated about when they discovered the PAP machine it shimmered and shifted out of reality itself. The only other map where machines do that is Mob of the Dead however that map theoretically took place outside of reality or hell if that's what you prefer. Could Origins be the same? Also I have no idea why the other perk machines or PAP don't display the phasing effect as whereas Mob of the Dead does although he also could have also been referring to the generators not be active, also it could explain why Richtofen has the viles of blood that supposedly belonged to two of…

"The most horrifying and imaginative Zombies experience yet. Players will be deployed to Dieselpunk-stylized World War I-era France where they will encounter the return of the four original heroes from the very first Zombies map, as well as hordes of zombies that have overrun trenches and fields, as well as the ruins of a mysterious and ancient location." What do you guys think it will be!? Im thinking maybe atlantis, or the vril ya, which will mean some damn good wonder weapons! But anyways, discuss this! Signed, Wings.

Whaddup guys, Sorry if this has been brought up, I've had quite a busy past few weeks and haven't been on the site as much as usual. However, I've managed to play me some Origins. And one thing I hear nearly every time I play makes me get a little more then curious. As most of you may've noticed, our characters sometimes here very strange whispers from Samantha when in Zombie Blood mode. One I hear every time is the one hinting you to dig for parts of the Ice Staff. The other, however, is a little eerie. You only hear this quote playing as Richtofen. Though I do not have the direct quote currently, I'm drawing this from memory. If anyone has the transcript or a …
