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.

Hi guys! Here are the official lyrics to Shepherd of Fire, the new Avenged Sevenfold song found on their new album, Hail to the King, which features in the cinematic intro to the zombies map, Origins. Here is the intro (can be found on COD TV): Let's take a moment and break the ice, So my intentions are known. See, I have pity in watching you suffer I know the feeling of being damned alone... I got a storybook of my own... Don't you see... I am your pride, Agent of wealth, Bearer of needs... And you know it's right... I am your war, Arming the strong, Aiding the weak... Know me by name, Shepherd of Fire... Well I can promise you paradise,…

In gameplay footage, we definitely don't see a scope on our new starting pistol. So, what will it be for? Will we even see it? What I think is that it may link to it's Pack-a-Punched form. With the Colt, we were given Mustang and Sally, or originally, C-3000 b1at-ch35. An hit-sensitive detonating grenade launching pistols. Ultimately a very...unorthodox transformation. So, if the Mauser were to follow the tradition, what kind of transformation shall it be? This is where the scope comes along. What if it becomes an ultra-powerful Sniper-Pistol? Perhaps it will gain a variable zoom scope and become the most powerful one-hit weapon Zombies has ever seen? Trump…

The o4 died in buried but someone wanted to have fun and sent them to their own hell. The vials from the trailer could prove this as well as the whole eyes being different and I mean who wants to live through that shit agin and again? Unless their in a vicious cycle. Which is why its a "prequal"

Everyone keeps asking if richtofin will be insane. If u look at the pic of the o4 in what looks to be a cave, he doesnt have that "i sommenly swear that im up to no good" look. Id post the pic but im not sure how to since i typed this on my ipad. But has anyone noticed how more detailed our original crew are? I think its cause they figured out how to go back in time and end their cycle for good

Now in the letter, he is having nightmares and I'm not sure if it states what or why but he keeps having the same one, over and over again and with each time, it becomes more vivid. Today they released a new photo of Takeo and the quote is used. Could it be a bit of significance? I'm not trying to dive in too deep, I don't want to seem so gullible. But it sorta caught my attention, I feel like Takeo is going to be a very important aspect on this map. Especially since he's Treyarchs twitter photo, he has the most letters released, photos, and we know he wants revenge. I feel like the nightmares are either déjà vu, or he can see something in the future, like a premoni…

By looking at the trailer it seems to me that the giant robots may have the same effect on the easter egg as did the excavators had in Moon. As in we probably have to wait for them to step on a certain part of the map like we had to wait for the excavators to well excavate. Any thoughts?

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 …

"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 …

"Let go and the beginning will become the end" That was what the hidden message was in Mob of the Dead's hidden song. I think it actually would make more sense that it has to do with these characters and the current predicament we're facing rather than the Mob characters. Going even further I believe that the whole song "where are we going" is about the original four characters and "rusty cage" is quite obviously about the Mob. I believe they put this particular song in the map with these characters to get the idea out there and get us to make the connection that our original characters may actually be in a cycle of their own that they can break. This may o…

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?

I was rewatching the trailer and putting together in my head some of the map layout. You can see the path the tank takes, and it looks like at one of the stops there is that big temple-like site. Here are 4 screenshots of it (you can only see 2 in this forum unless you open the image directly): Image Link: https://www.evernote.com/shard/s244/sh/ ... 3%20PM.png Things that are interesting to me are the glowing blue interiors of the pillars surrounding the site, the power/electricity that is shooting up from it into the clouds, and the detailed runes like in the Origins teaser text on the floor of the site. So is this a Vril-ya landing site? Did the…

As I am sure most of you know, there is a theory going around that the Zombie Storyline is just a giant time paradox. If you look at everything that has happen so far, the only way it would seem possible to "Break The Cycle" is to stop the Element 115 from being discovered. This would be impossible. So that means it must be broken another way. My theory is that in orgins, we will be launching an All out effort to begin the process to break the cycle. The Cycle can only be broken in one of three ways (at least that's how I see it). The Possible "Cycle Breakers" ------------------------------------------ 1: Kill Richtofen or prevent him from finding the…

In the newest "Letters from the field", Takeo mentions a "Battle of Mukden/mukin/makin/whatever". The closest battle to line up with this date and name is the "Battle of Mukden" This battle takes place in 1905, between the Japanese and the Russians. Being one of the largest battles to take place in Asia before World War 1. The battle ended with the Russians fleeing making Japan the victor. Now Takeo also talks about his "target" Could Takeo have a specific person he was supposed to kill in the Russian Army? Maybe he was supposed to kill Nikolai. My guess is as good as yours. Anyone else have any theories of which battle Takeo is talking about?

Alright so, i'm new here, and will probably get shot down but I have a theory for the Zombies wrap-up storyline. Well, if you know about the story thus far you know that Maxis won the battle for the Ether in the Buried easter egg against Richtofen and it turns out HE was the "bad guy" so i'm thinking it wouldn't be too far fetched if Maxis was able to shift his consciousness back in time (To WWI where Origins takes place) with control of the zombies, he could have been trying to change the outcome of the war with Nazi Germany as victors and that's where the giant friggin robots come in (technology from the various timelines + Maxis' control of Zombies/115)and tha…

Helllllloooooo everybody! I am sure you are all interested in getting the the nitty gritty details, but lets start from the beginning. My evidence is the letters. Using our thinking caps and several treyarch-esque hints, we know that the while proccess of mining and using E115 began a few months before the first letter dated september 22, 1917. From this, we can know that production is coming along. This is our start. The most recent letter from takeo dated march 1918. How does this help? We know that the map has SNOW. Now by now, snow is still reasonable but becoming less. So lets delve further. Unfortunately, winter ends roughly different depending…

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).

Hey folks, This is my first time ever posting this sort of thread/theory/whatever, so bear with me. I've been thinking about MOTD's relevance in the story line, and why Richtofen has blood vials belonging to two of the mobsters - and I think I may have a solid theory which "may" explain. So what if MOTD is actually symbolic of where the N4 were/are trapped after the events of moon? As we know, Moon suddenly ended when Richtofen swapped souls with Sam, and then randomly leaving the other four characters to their own devices. Now, with all the time rift stuff going on, what if they are stuck on moon in a "cycle" Now; MOTD is the O4, stuck in a cycle in a…

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…

Okay, I lost the post because I changed tabs on my ipad so I'm going to write this again in as few wor as possible! Robot = awesome, but how in 1914?? Consider NDU loading screen: What if its Maxis, taking plans from Group 935 near the end of WWII to construct the robot in 1914 (or before) because there's no point building it when they've already lost. He also makes the Mauser (I guess, from blueprints) This means Origins is set AFTER everything that's happened so far, even through in time it's set before. Edit: I know the cartoon shows him going to 1945, but that doesn't mean he went FURTHER back in time; thee blue stream seems to continue off …

Before i start, i just want to say that if this theory has been out I havent seen it, so if its a repost please pardon my mistake. Now my theory is bit of a long shot and may not be true at all but lets begin:- Now firstly, I want to say that o4 had COMPLETELY been forgotten about so if i am rite, Samantha is still stuck in Richtofen's body. Now saying this I can also say that maxis can communicate with them. (this is based on my assumption that after we finish the moon easter egg maxis still talks to us when the missile hits the earth.) Now samantha has controlled the zombies before, so she knows how this whole process works. She knew about the existence o…
