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.

Okay so we all should know by now that the new Origins map will be set BEFORE everything. Before Richtofen experimented on the O4. Will this affect the old characters we all know and love? Dempsey is always angry. Nikolai is drunk. Takeo recites proverbs. Richtofen's experimentation caused this. So without these side effects from their being experimented on, are our characters going to be boring and normal? We know they will be badass in the first place because would Richtofen team up with them because they are weak? I doubt it. On another note. Would this be set before Richtofen went crazy from touching the mysterious pyramid on the moon? I hope this map will …

"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.

Hey all. I was on the COD site and saw this on Origins's map bio. http://uploadffs.nl/images/2013/08/12/XW8Hr.png As I hope you can see, it says "ALCATRAZ" If you don't believe me, check here: http://www.callofduty.com/blackops2/dlc ... se#origins So I think this map ties in with Mob of the Dead. Also backed up by the blood things Richtofen had on his belt that match Finn and Sal's serial numbers that we saw during the Origins trailer. What do you think it means? Really odd this...... EDIT: I accidently put Buried instead of Origins. FACEPALM. Sorry about that. :\

After the events in Buried, Richtofen has full control over the Aether's energies, but the meaning of Aether is; The link between dimensions. The reason this attracted me is that Richtofen now has the power to shift between dimensions/different realities. Does this mean that Origins is a prequel and a sequel? Well...yes and no, Origins is an alternate dimension, a different reality where Tank, Takeo, Nikolai and Richtofen meet up in an aftermath, where "The Giant" was never in Germany but was in France, where Group 935 built a "Giant" and never even discovered the mysterious Element 115, but you ask how, how did the zombies exist in a reality where…

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?

Hey guys, i have found something interesting in one of dempsey's quotes in kino der toten, he says :"killing zombies since 1945".Now origins takes place during world war 1 which is between 1914-1918.So how can dempsey kill the zombies before he actually started killing them the answer is time travel...But how do they look young?Maybe it just sends you back to that place and changes how you look during that time!?... Comment what you guys think! :D

So i tried searching this for this in the forums and I didnt find it but I want to know whats your thought about the blood viles having Sal de Luca and Finn O'leary's (name spelled wrong i guess) prisoner number on the blood viles carried by Richtofen ? Do you think it will play a part? For me, and i know i will get shot down, but i really always believed that MotD was connected to the story line somehow and many story theorist will say that i was wrong but Arlington heard nikolai's name and this is one theory i read somewhere , that maybe the comic book story we are following is written by Arlington himself. Again i am sceptical about the theory but strongly believ…

:D Hey guys, considering the trailer for Origins, we all can see the Ballista iron sights in one of the character's hands, we all know about the new sniper in zombies. I honestly hope it will be around as powerful as the DSR. Also, for a pap name, think that 'Trebuchet' would be a fitting name for such a hopefully awesome gun. What do you guys think. Also maybe some theories for both the weapons they have revealed and those they have not yet revealed. Thanks!

I was doing a massive amount of research last night trying to figure out where Origins will take place, and in doing so I was looking at potential locations in Northern France that had connections to the Vril or Thule Society, places that had interesting artifacts or mysterious archaeological finds, as well as geographical similarities and similar structures seen in the Trailer for Origins. Based on what I've seen and read, I believe the location is in Normandy. Origins is supposed to be located in Northern France, and so here's my evidence for Normandy, which seems to fall in line with the Zombies storyline as well as the occult ideas that have been brought into…

These bubs are very unusual. They seem to (titan)fall from the zeppelin and make themselves your Big Daddy with their rotating mechanical claws. Another interesting thing to note is that they die instantaneously whenever the glass of their masks is broken. Are they the result of 935's further testing to make the zombies even greater war machines? What is it in the exoskeletons that keeps them alive?

Okay, If you read this before - viewtopic.php?f=139&t=28062 then you see where I'm going with this. So I've been thinking, what if by pushing the button it doesn't actually "Reset" the Maps E.E.'s I keep thinking about the save feature, how you can't re-do one side of the E.E. without first completing the other. You can only have one side of the E.E. saved to your Online Profile. So instead of Resetting the E.E's for the maps, it's save what side you pushed the button for and that in turns has an effect on "Origins" I've looked at the images from the "First Look Trailer" I've noticed the "Blue" lighting effect in the backgrounds of some of them. …

Since the characters are left on moon, I wonder how the cinematic will be for origin. The last two DLC, Buried and Die Rise,displays comic like movements and background story. What are your thoughts on the O4's first ever cinematic? (Hopefully, they time travel but Treyarch mentions it as a prequel.)

Hi! I just wanted to create this post to see what you guys are thinking about the new black ops 2 zombies map 'Origins'! I personally think that the map will beat all of the maps, so far in Black ops 2, and will (hopefully!) get me back to zombies!! Lately I think that the map packs they have been releasing have been mediocre, but this one looks EPIC! I have a link here to a video that analyses the map origin, if you want to you can watch it and tell me what you think of the map after that: http://youtu.be/BWfF9Qj_yWI Thanks For Reading! -Flux

Before Origins, we thought that Rictofen captured the three test subjects from war (one of them was mexican, but the mexican died, so Richtofen replaced him with someone from our O4 that I don't remember, this isn't making sense, I'm probably drunk IRL lol) But from the teaser it looks like that Richtofen already knew our three gents. So after he went mad, he found them, and captured them. This post isn't making sense, but you guys get the idea. I hope so. Now help me out with this!

Hi guys, I usually just lurk around the forums and read what others have to say, but after thinking about this for a little while, I think I may have a theory for the Easter Egg. Now, in Call of the Dead, the characters we played as had to help the O4 get out of the room. Now what if, the O4 have figured out how to correctly use the teleporter correctly and have traveled back in time to where they have first encountered the zombies. Why I mentioned Call of the Dead, is because they could be trapped in a room so they don't encounter their former selves and create some type of paradox. BUT, if Treyarch do wish, they could even have the O4 (of course, with Samantha in R…

It's "Diesel Punk" WWI themed. This means there's great potential to see some classic rifles in zombie killing action. What are your hopes for historical weapons? I'd like to see the staples of WWI at least. The Kar98s, Lee-Enfields, Ross Rifles, etc. Maybe a Maxim Machine Gun emplacement or even a Lewis Gun? We know the original characters are returning, so there's always hope from historical weapons of all factions, right?

So i was thinking. Nacht was never confirmed to be in germany, and as some of you may know, in the trailer for origins, it shows a area that look sort of like nacht der untoten. So i kind of just brushed it off, but then i realized all the planes flying around, and it made me think how the very first soldiers from nacht crashed in a plane and went to nacht to fight, so maybe since so much time travel has been done, this happens when the soldiers from nacht are flying to wherever there going (my best guess is to verruckt to save peter) and they crash during the time the O4 that we all love are there. this wouldbe kind of cool, cause we could learn more about …

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…
