The Giant
Re-awaken The Giant. Return to the secret facility where it all began, and strike at the heart of the zombie scourge.
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.

1. The perk locations are completely random 2. They took out the World at War wall weapons Just because of those 2, I still prefer the original World at War version. But I still like The Giant, it's a good remake.

Anyone else get the feeling that the young crew are really experienced time travelers in The Giant trailer? Like pretty much everything they say points to them already knowing the events of the future, even though supposedly they're from WWI. "Do you know who I am?" "Yeah, we know." "A great evil approaches. There is a chain of events that must be set in motion." "The future hangs by a thread. We must awaken the test subjects." "Goddamit Richtofen I thought we were done with this!" " "Only a fool would dare to change history." "I am no fool. What I do, I do only to secure a better tomorrow." My guess is that they're like a cleanup squad, chasing one step behind the…

I was reading the Black ops 1 terminal when I got into dreamland and logged in with Roppen and password trinity, I found files of Der reise. These files are very interesting to read, but its not until you get to the 7th .txt file that I realized something. "Maxis: What? Edward what are you doing? Open the door. Edward. Open this door now. Samantha: Dad, I'm scared. Maxis: Damn you... Stay by me, Samantha. Richtofen: Goodbye, Doctor Maxis. [Edward laughs] [Static.]" So does this mean that when the static begins, its because the new four came into play already? Not only that but there are several ciphers that I wouldnt even know how to be…

So, I have a theory about the free perk in "The giant" that you get sometimes when you teleport. I have NEVER been able to get a free perk from linking, or using the teleporters, and I've not been able to find out why until about a month ago, but now I've put something on reddit, and it's discussion concerns me because no as one there has put it together. SImply put, the drops you can possibly get in the game are diffrent in diffrent games. This is specifically linked to gobble-gum. What I mean is, if you don't have a gobble gum that lets you obtain a free perk equipped, the teleporter won't let you get a free perk from teleporting. You can get any oth…

I Really believe the first step for the giant has to be done before the start of Round 3. I think you have to open one of the doors buy a gum ball I guarantee you it gives you zombie blood and you have to activate it and find the Intel in zombie blood mode. I've just played 3 games and I got in plain sight on round 1 both times and the one game I played at round 3 Dempsey said mission failed was unable to find the Intel as soon as round 3 started!

The old Richthofen is killed by the younger Richthofen from the Origins Universe. He has to be infected with element 115, after experimenting on the subjects and teleporters. But when a 115-infected person dies, he turns into a zombie, and this doesnt seem to happen to the old Richthofen. Does anyone know why?

I noticed that when shooting the panel with a pack-o-punch gun there are six floating green things that spin, i assume those are the two bears and the monkey we know about. So where are the othere three located at? Will that maybe unlock a second secret perk? Any thoughts? Or find!?

Hey all, this is the first time I've got to sit down and enjoy the forums in a while. Even though I've kept up with the trailers, I have been asking myself, after all the hoops we jumped through in BO2, collecting pieces, building card readers,going back and collecting cards, and using them just to fulfil either of the two protagonists goals have ended in a large story gap (again) with the release of "The Giant" and whatever that other map is called (I'm not to thrilled about that one atm). I am hoping I've just missed something, or forgot a piece of information because I'd be lying if I said I've used my ps3 in the last 6-7 months. So we're here, back in Der Riese, wi…

Ok, so, this is extremely complex and has more questions than answers... (but hey, it's Zombies, since when hasn't than been the case?) But, here's a theory I haven't heard others really think about. If it's confusing, I apologize, frankly, it's hard enough for me to keep track of a lot of this info myself as the story is so wide and has so many unanswered questions. So, here we go: The final cut scene for Origins really has one sticking point to me that carries Origins to BO3 in Der Riese, that's Samantha telling Eddie one simple thing, that Maxis has a plan. Now, at that point, Samantha, "Eddie" and Maxis are all in the aether. Samantha having been there pret…

I am not sure if anyone has said about this yet but I have been wondering is black ops 3 the end of the zombies story all together? From the trailer for the giant they seem to have gone back in time and they are attempting to undo what richtofen (as well as maxis) have created. So this leaves us with the possibility of them visiting all the old maps and undoing certain events. This could lead to no zombies in the future for us. I could be wrong (I hope I am) but it seems like it is coming to an end or will it lead onto something much bigger.

Ok, so with the release of the Juggernog special edition pack, we get the lovely addition of the in-game zombies map: THE GIANT. Now, they likely won't ONLY offer this map to those who fork over 200USD for an epic but unnecessary mini-fridge and coasters. (Actually on that note, we can confirm that Double-Tap, Speed-Cola, Quick-Revive, and Juggernog are returning) So it's likely going to be either a pre-order bonus and/or a seasons pass bonus and then be released for a micro-transaction later on. What's REALLY interesting about this map is that it's a pre-sequel! The map is said to take place at the Der-Reise facility fallowing the events of Nikolai, Tank, Takeo, a…

I was thinking could something happen if 3 players teleport at the same time and 1 player stands on the mainframe. On the old Der Riese trailer you can see old group trying to go to teleporters while Richtofen stays at the mainframe. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SAIZ6dNNI3U Maybe that's a step to awaken the test subjects? I would do this myself already but I don't have people for this.

I'm very confused on the Storyline of zombies from origins up to the DLC map The Giant. How do they connect together? I looked all over and cant find a video or post on how the origins characters ended up in The Giant. Please help.

I don't understand how they could be in the same timeline. In origins, maxis's brain is in the drone. Doesn't that mean that he died? Richthofen locked him and Samantha in the teleporter in Dir Riese. Maxis had to be alive to have a daughter. There is no way that his wife could have had her during the time of origins. Since Samantha is in the aether she could probably go back in time to warn them all. Could someone please explain this theory to me? Is there some information that I have gotten wrong?

I mentioned this in another thread but I thought I'd post this here because a) it's 'in' The Giant and b) I'm really intrigued by it and thought you guys might be able to help. So basically I was looking in the sound files last night and came across this file in what is supposed to be sounds from The Giant. It sounds like some kind of voice speaking with some form of audio manipulation on it, but it definitely seems to be 'words' or a code in there somewhere. Initially I thought it sounded backwards so I tried listening to it like that but it sounded identical to me, I also tried slowing it down/speeding it up, etc. so I'm not sure what else I can try. The file i…

My and my friend were playing "The Giant" and when looking at other Youtube video's online we discovered that the annihilator we had, had a different icon color. Is this happening too anyone else of just me. (My friend thinks he did something further in the easter egg, but i do not know).

I know some discussion was made before the map came out because of the promotional image but there is literally a Giant from Origins being built back there. The Giant is as far as we know a prequel to the original so what happened in between to make that Giant disappear? Why is it even there? I think it is what Maxis was talking about when he wanted money to fund finding 115 to fuel his Giant project. I think he planned on restoring this thing, or maybe this is the first instance of a Giant existing in this universe? I haven't really seen much discussion about this so I want to know what people think about it really and what connotations it has.

Greetings CoDz! A little over one week ago we got our first plays in of Black Ops 3, and boy were we excited. It had been an extra year longer in waiting than normal and the map director was confirmed to be the same as the mind behind Origins and Mob of the Dead, which in my opinion are the best playing map and the best feeling map respectively. Now that Shadows has finally been solved (probably) and The Giant is still looking pretty quiet I'd like to share my views on the map and read about your own. So first off the Easter Egg or lack thereof is extremely disappointing. I was really expecting an actual easter egg quest. Not just a…

I loaded up Der Riese with my friend last night and we spent a good hour at the teleporter near the MP40 trying to figure out how everything worked in the cutscene. While we were there, we found a lot of differences just too that one area. I think this is a sign of how drastically the map could change but I wanted to point out what had changed. This is probably going to be a wall of text but I don't have much time to go get pictures for it and I just wanted to point out some of the stuff I saw that I think passed under the radar a bit. The first big thing is where Nikolai is shooting, in the intro he is shooting zombies in that open location that we saw at the end of the…

Hey guys, I was playing The Giant the other day and I found that each of the characters say a quote at the beginning of the first 3 rounds in Solo. They say some very interesting things. Here's the video if you want to hear them for yourself, I also have the transcripts below: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xFvdBxoClHU THE GIANT QUOTES Tank: “Field Report: dimensional insertion point was off, we were too late, Richtofen interrupted an established continuity, what happens next is uncertain. Allied operatives MIA, I have no choice but to continue the mission alone.” …
