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.

Any thoughts? 3:10- The robot has an iron cross: May be of templar decent, may be of Nazi decent. 0:44- The original: Leave a zombie- maybe the only way to detain a zombie outbreak is to leave a zombie so more can't spawn in and capture it, seal it off, and leave it for others to deal with... that's how it works in-game... maybe that's how it works in real time... Maybe for the final map, for the final easter egg, we go to round: ? In which we must save a single zombie and capture it in a containment field of some sort... Then no more zo…

Origins is undoubtedly one of the better maps in black Ops 2. Sure it is a difficult map, but the engineering and map design put into it far exceeds any of the previous maps in Black Ops 2. With that said, there are certain aspects of the map that need to be patched. Things that, in the two days I've played it non-stop, have been more than slight annoyances. The first thing I would like too see changed is the god damn robot. I've gotten to the point where I know where it will spawn and when. And the robot has really changed the dynamic of the map for good. But the one thing I can't stand is the fact the robots foot with the portal changes. I.e. The little portal into…

So the Easter Egg that King Skylark and Brian Tuey were hinting at got found. Head to generator 1 and lie down on each of the number 1 symbols on the floor, press x on each of them. You'll hear the sound that tells you that you've activated a music easter egg step. Then head over to Generator station 5 and do the same for the number 5. This will play the song "Aether" Credit to the city of z for finding this. Here's a video guide if you need it, but I doubt you will. 59IhYPqZ9lU

In Origins, I was wondering if we would see some references to the Thule Society. I know from 1917-1919 the Thule Society was being formed. A brief overview of the Thule Society- The Society was a German “Aryan” Occultist organization that studied the origins of the Aryan race. It was established in 1917 by Walter Nauhaus, a wounded German WW1 veteran. He was a Berlin Art student who was connected to another secret society known as the Germanenorden (Order of Teutons) and his Thule Society was meant to be the Munich Branch of the Germanenorden. By 1918, due to some discrepancies, Nauhaus’ Munich Branch of the Germanenorden became its own society. And thus, the Thul…

Hi everyone! I hope all of you liked the update on Origins. fixed some glitches...Yea I hate em. And peopel who use them. Just a personal thought. Now onto the main things. If you looked at a post PINNAZ made on the General Discussion, there are the patch notes from yesterday or, in the future, September 18. One of the main things they addressed was something known as the "One Inch Punch" Perk. I believe this is the power up we recieve after filling up the chests. So we now know that this is a REAL PERMA PERK! You can keep it for the game you get it! Now, I have a list of Persistent upgrades. I would like to add this "One Inch Punch" Perk, but I would…

While watching the trailer, you'll notice that Maxis looks very old. Too old, in fact, to not be a crippling old man in Black Ops 1 and 2. You also see that there are Zombies while in the tomb (cough cough) that are wearing armor of the Knight's Templar. Also in The Tomb are German soldiers holding what looks to be STG 44s. STGs were not around until World War 2 if I remember correctly. The Robot makes no goddamn sense at all for this time period. It would have made more sense for it to be put in a TranZit 4 map. Something else to notice is that the Zombies in The Tomb have bluish/ purple eyes, while the Zombies above ground have yellowish/ orange eyes…

I wanna discuss 2 theories I have about the things that struck me when i was watching the origins trailer. I havent read these anywhere and if these have been discussed then i apologise beforehand. So lets begin.... 1.) Blue eyed zombies :- By now you must have already noticed that there are two different eye colored zombies. My theory is that maybe the Blue color zombies only appear if you enter the tomb shown in the cut-scene. I mean every clip we have where gameplay is shown shows only orange or yellowish coloured zombies being slaughtered. This kind of gives credibility to my theory. This could be similar to the ghost in Buried. 2.) This one is a bit far fe…

Has anyone noticed a sort of train whistle sound when they are in the bottom of the excavation site where you build the staffs? I haven't been able to find out where it comes from or what it might mean. And I'm not talking about the tank is ready horn either.

Richtofen's Last Letter Dated 13th of May 1918. I was born on the 13th of May 1981. So 13/05/1918 & 13/05/1981, coincidence? Bear in mind they probably know my birthday, and they 100% knew that I'd notice this. See what they did there... :twisted: Love it, made me smile like a kid in a candy store. Just a little trivia. I feel like NZC was Pablo's Journal. Regards Alpha. Also just noticed I posted this on Friday the 13th in 2013. Nice.

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…

So I was playing yesterday going for all for Ultimate staves in solo, and I ran into a problem while going for the ultimate ice staff. I built it and finished flipping the stones in the Crazy Place no problem. Then I had an issue with freezing and destroying the tombstones around the map. The only weapons I had were the ice staff and Boomhilda, and when I would freeze them and shoot them, Boomhilda wouldn't destroy them for whatever reason. Only had around 270 points at the time, and had to rebuild some windows to buy an M14 to destroy them. Not the worst glitch in the world, but it was kind of weird that Boomhilda would't work on the tombstones. Anyone else have this pro…

Are the ultimate staffs from the trophies just another name for the elemental staffs or is there a way to upgrade them? They aren't PAPable so do you guys think there is a hidden way to upgrade them like on MotD with the Redeemer?

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 …

Today, I played origins solo on original difficulty in a local lobby(on Xbox). Got the wind staff and went to the crazy place to do the first challenge in the process of upgrading the staff. I used the image shown in this post http://www.callofdutyzombies.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=155&t=35402 to attempt to solve the wind puzzle but after getting the rings in place, nothing happened. I then went to a Youtube video and did exactly what the person in the video did and the puzzle did not work still. Then, I just shot the rings randomly a bit but still it did not show the "solved" animation where the rings spin around automatically. Has anyone else had trouble with this? i…

In a recent game of Origins, i managed to kill the all the temple zombies before they even touched any generators. You know, when they are trying to over run them. After i killed them ,the blue portals they come out of didnt close up like they normally do, nothing different happened afterwards, but I only did that on Generator 4 (Jug) However, i wonder if the same is done to all 6 generators, will anything interesting happen? theory: the portals look an awful lot like the denizen portals from Tranzit, maybe there's a connection between the maps? Anyone else notice this occurence?

Whaddup guys, So on 3arc's Facebook page, they've been posting some very interesting letters that seem to connect to the O4 characters. If you want to see them, check out GRILL's thread here. One of the notes that was on there really stuck out to me, though. 'twas the note that supposedly relates to Dempsey, the third one. Have a look: (creds to GRILL) Basically, what this note is saying is that the writer is hearing a ton of military rumors that seem pretty ridiculous, such as lights in the sky, a plague, and a giant metal man. In real life these rumors would sound absolutely so out there that they should be ignored, but in the zombies world, we've hone…
