Shangri-La
A legendary shrine lost in an exotic jungle. Where the undead lurk within a treacherous labyrinth of underground caverns, deadly traps and dark secrets.
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.

Plant spikemoars in front of the holes in the cave by the waterfall. Then lead zombies into them. This will block up the holes. Then activate the waterfall.

30 out of 40 of the topics on page 1 of this board are all about the Easter Egg. Anyone that actually makes a topic regarding the actual gameplay itself gets no more than 5 replies. Easter Eggs used to be little things that the developers would put in just for fun to see if anyone would notice it. However, this game now seems to have been turned into some sort of Drake's Fortune/Tomb Raider style game, and I don't mean in terms of the theme, but from trying to solve mysteries and such. Is there anyone else on this forum like me, that actually just likes the game for what it is and doesn't actually have a damn about the stupid EE? P.S. I think there should be a sub-fo…

I was hoping we could all post strategies for Shangri-la here, solo or otherwise. Maybe it's just me, but I find it difficult to get past 12 solo, maybe cuz I still need to learn the map some more. What I've done is make heavy use of the water slide and run laps between that and the waterfall. I don't feel comfortable camping anywhere since it seems to me there's always a blind spot. I've also seen people online camp by the water slide often; with 4 people there's two facing the mud maze, one watching the cliffside and the other watching the window. We made it to 24 doing this. Anyone else have any good strategies?

Hi ! Many thought the symbol on the top of the new wonder weapon to be a treyarch symbol. IMO it looks like the marking on the wall in the starting zone of COTD. See to compare : The 31-79 JGb215 : => Zoomed-in : The wall of COTD : The only thing which is looking different is the marking which is going left from the point of the symbol of the Wonder weapon. Tell me what you think of it !

Ive seen the easter egg done and know all the steps. One thing though, in the quicksand/mud room there is the wheels on the walls with different symbols on each one. I automatically assumed it was part of the easter egg, but coldnt find out which step it was. Now do I read over it every time, or do those wheels have their own unique purpose?

Watching back through the trailer I noticed this when the monkey bomb was shown. The skull for some reason does not look like it was there originally, more like it was scratched into the floor at a later date. Opinions guys?

My lifelong dream is to have a map dealing with Area 51. There, I said it. As soon as the achievements were released for CoTD, and I saw the word "Paradise" I could not help to think of "Paradise Ranch" AKA Area 51. I'm pretty sure the majority of zombie fanatics wanted this map back in WaW, (after the SNN co-ordinates were discovered) and the volume of threads on the HQ about wanting an Area 51 map before Black Ops zombies was even announced was absolutely overwhelming. Now all of this "evidence" is pointing towards a "tropical" map. But I really think 3arc would want to go out on a positive (if Map Pack 3 is the last map pack) and give all us fans what …

Could they be the music Easter Egg? Just speculating here, but in the trailers they pretty much only show important things on the map, and that's the only thing i can see that stands out that doesn't do anything, So maybe? :lol:

Anyone been to a Jungle Cruise attraction in Disneyland, or a Indiana Jones movie? You probably been to one of those, or both. The point here is that you've seen the infamous shrunken heads. You know, those little deformed human heads used as trophies or luck charms. Here is a little story I made up which is kind of interesting but could explain the 31-79 JGb215's origin. The tribes around the Amazon Rainforest were in the search for shelter, food, and resources mainly because of the epidemic seasons. They traveled to find more spiritual power to hardness their religious life when they found the Spaniards searching for human life. Upon contacting th…

So does everyone remember those days when WE ALL kept our eyes peeled on the campaign mission The Defector Well we now have a reason to, you see, the theory that Area 51 being the next map makes sense, but Firing range makes alot more sense ya know, Just tons and tons of easter eggs, the please wait signs, the teddy bears, the bullets that say dempsey, and the mystery boxes, i mean Hangar 18? it has nothing but that one little apple, i mean i think this is just treyarchs way of tricking us, they might just put it as the first map in Black ops 2, but if you look at the monitors when your in the zombies main menu, you can clearly see the outside battlefeild of the defe…

At spawn there's 4 buttons on each of the Walls surrounding Quick Revive, have everyone press them at the same time and it causes an eclipse.

So now Richtofen has the focusing stone and he can "control them all", what happens? I really do doubt that isn't the end of the EE. He still has the golden rod to use and why would the focusing stone still be in his inventory? :shock: Anyone else found anything relevant to them both. THERE HAS TO BE MORE! :cry: We get one line of dialogue and permanent perks, it doesn't really explain anything...

The Focusing Stone: From: Lonely in the World Link. The Mines of Despair were closed long ago when miners broke through a wall deep within into an ancient Empyrean tunnel. When Instead of riches, they found undead men and fleshless warriors, they closed the mine and abandoned the town. Only Le-Ai Rae, an old hermit living in a hut nearby, remains to warn of the dangers within. But if you're brave enough to explore the depths of the mine, you will find a treasure the previous inhabitants overlooked - the Focusing Stone. Have fun looking into this CoDz Researches. Regards Alpha.

Hey guys, something happened during a co-op game on Shangri-La yesterday which I've never heard of before so I figured I'd see if it's happened to anyone else on here. Pretty simple, I went down near a napalm zombie, when he was right next to me someone ran past him and he exploded - and I died out instantly even though I'd only been down for about 10 seconds. I'm guessing that if you're downed and you take damage then you'll die out, but of course it's a rare occurance that you take damage when you're down as nothing actually attacks you. Obviously the explosion from the napalm damaged me and therefore killed me.
