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 talking about the person on the operating table. A lot of people say its Maxis. But I believe it's the unknown Mexican test subject whom richtofen killed. Anybody agree? Disagree?

A couple of times now I've been unable to find the Red Vinyl for the Fire Staff. I have looked in all the usual places (on the pews, on the wall on way to gen6, on crates at gen6, and down at crazy place enterance) but with no luck. Is there a fifth location I dont know about, or does the game just glich out sometimes? anyone else experiencing the same problem?

In my opinion I think the cut scene from Origins is a framework which the story has followed since the beginning of the Zombies franchise. I think the maps we've played and challenges we have completed have been a microcosm, or a look to what is going to happen in the future. Through the imagination of Samantha and Eddie we have already seen the events as they have unfolded. I think the story we've been told so far is legitimate but has yet to come to fruition. I think Samantha and Eddie finishing their game when the sirens begin, signifies the beginning of the actual events as they will happen. During the cut scene we see bottles of Juggernog, zombie figurines from Mob o…

Samantha's Story - How It REALLY Began As you may know, I believe Origins to be set in an Alternate Reality. But if it wasn't, then I have an extremely out there theory regarding Samantha, and her Origins. My name is Samantha, and I am going to tell you how this all REALLY began... What if Origins ISNT set in an alternate reality? There is an ancient evil buried within the temple. When the Germans released it, the sheer amounts of the Element in the temple walls acted as a catalyst, and the being was able to swap souls with Samantha without using the M.P.D's process. This being trapped Samantha in it's tomb and took control of the Zombies, c…

The Maxis Drone is probably the coolest buildable I've seen in Black Ops 2. The things I've seen that it can be used to do is: -Shoot zombies -Pick up Power-Ups -Revive players -Fetch Easter Egg items -Warn you about the Panzers and Titans Does anyone else know of anything it can be used for?

Origins Achievement / Trophy Guide Thought it would be handy to have a single port of call for all the achievements associated with Origins. I have compiled below a list of each of the achievements with their corresponding Gamerscore / Trophy and details of how to achieve the same. If anyone has any little hints or tips to make any of these easier please post them below and I will update the OP with any additions. Not a Gold Digger - In Origins, share a weapon you dug up. (5 (G)) (Bronze) This is by far one of the easiest achievements to date. Grab a shovel and dig, if the dig reveals a weapon then let a team mate pick it up instead of taking it …

So what about these giant robots eh? Will we be able to get ontop of them or inside of them? Will they purposely hunt you down at some point, like if you enter a certain area they get angry and fallow you? Will they deploy these big-daddy zombies to hunt you down? Is the Easter egg going to be "Take down the giant"? Can we shoot it with a ray gun to make it explode? Will there be anyway to avoid or recover from being squished? What are some questions or thoughts you guys have?

So if you have either seen the ending cutscene of Origins EE or watched it, OR, like me, an absolute FAN of music, you bought the Soundtrack, you may notice that there is a song called Samantha's Rest. It is an interesting song. It sounds really familiar...hm....perhaps... MOON LOADING SCREEN?! That's right. This is the same song as Samantha's Lullaby but with a significant difference. It is hard to point out specific details as I am NOT good at noting music. But its there. They really are different. So now my point. Why are they different? Why the sudden change in tone? Here are the links to the two songs Samantha's Lullaby: http://w…

Hey everyone, I would like to discuss the situation of the zombies in the new map Origins. Now, if the zombies are awakened around 1918/19 by the Reich archeologists then are set free on the surface of Northern France then it is logical to think that somehow they were stopped, because otherwise by the 1940's zombies would already be more in number than humans. So something must of happened to stop them. That leaves 3 choices: [*:27agu50s]Containment. The first possibility is that the zombie crisis and any trace of 115 were contained somehow, whether this be in a tomb or a force field system. It is unlikely to be a force field system as other countries …

Being a drummer, I just had to post this. Treyarch's Senior Sound Designer, Kevin Sherwood (@KSherwoodOPS) talks about the team's collaboration with Darren Cesca (@DarrenCesca), and what it was like to bring his Extreme Metal drumming prowess to the recording of "Archangel" for the Zombies experience, Origins. Sherwood and Cesca collaborated virtually: Sherwood on the west coast and Cesca on the east coast, recording his tracks at the House of Grind.

So we all know that this map takes place in World War 1. So more than likely we may be seeing the return of Hellhounds. What do you guys think of this? Maybe they won't be in the canon version but could be put in for custom games?

I have no idea if this has been posted, but I have to post it while it's still on my mind lol. It's also really far-fetched and crazy, but perhaps I can expand on it soon. Anyways, what if Origins, was just that? The Origins. That is how it truly began. What if the events from Origins caused what happens in Der Riese to take place? I know we look at Origins as the chronological end to the Black Ops 2 section of the story, but what if it isn't? What if this is why Richtofen becomes a part at Der Riese? Perhaps this is a cycle, and he remembers his friends in Origins, and he wants them to be real? However, by doing this, he encounters 115, which slows his growth, …

Alright everybody! So by now most of you have played Origins. And can we get a woop woop for this amazing map! (PS3 players I am sorry for you. You have my condolences.) Now most of us have heard at one time or another about certain Easter Eggs. Well, needless to say, as rumors go on, the real meaning is lost. Thus I have created this guide to help keep track of all EEs so far.

I havnt seen this posted yet, just something i noticed in the trailer for Origins. There is a zombie running and he has some kind of device on his back, looks like a bomb or a controlling device. What do you guys think? Do you think it could hold some purpose or is it simply a cosmetic thing?

Now I'm excited for this, I'm so happy that the O4 are back in action and ready to kill again. But I have issues with it being a prequel. Now they keep saying every story has a beginning, and an end. And I'm confused to how this even ends when it's happening before everything started. I have a discussion with someone about the story and how will it fit to the next map, and things just weren't adding up. Here are my issues. 1. Who's in control? My friend thinks it will be Samantha, but I kept saying Samantha wasn't even born yet. And they weren't even testing 115 until WW2. Which brings up-- 2. How are they're zombies? In all the radios, not a single one…

What i'm thinking is, to make things line up a tad bit, there is a teleporter in Origins. Now you remember when you get zapped back into Kino where there's a chance that you get throw into one of Sam's rooms? Well I think they could do something similar like that, except they be little inserts of WaW maps. It'd be a nice reference and make some sense that they CAN time travel into previous locations. And would add speculation of whether not Moon will return to further the O4's story in BOIII or if (I MEAN IF) they release another DLC map pack. (IF IF IF IF).

Dunno if its happened to anyone else but three times now I've had it where everyone else in game said I was down but on my end I was still running around just fine. They attempted to revive me but there was no option to revive me. Once my body died out all the doors in the level "shut" as if none were open. Rejoining the game fixes it but still what would cause this? I'd put it up on a file share site like youtube but A. I left the custom game and the film didn't save apparently and B. I do not know how.

So I shelled out for origins about two months ago and I'm a decently skilled zombies player, I can hit round thirty with no issues but ffs I just can't seem to get the ee done Like I can't even get past upgrading the staffs because by the time I've got them ready to fill with souls its like round 20 and I've still got to do g-strikes and the soul chests. It's just impossible for me because I'm good at surviving but I'm not efficient with tasks If you guys could be so kind as to just tell me what staff/tasks I should do first and when I should do them, and a couple priorities I'd be mind blowingly happy Thanks in advance Liam

Well, just got 30G for having for staffs in one game (had 2/3 before never all four) and we had upgraded them all and about to do the EE. One player backed out and the rest followed. Tried explaining it can be done with with the three of us but not interested, saying high round will not count on the leader boards. All I could say was, it ends the bloody game anyway and you get the achievement. So is a high round score relevant? Arghhhhhhhh, randoms, so close yet so far.
