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.

If you check out the picture for dead ops in the lobby it shows our crashed soviet rocket from Ascension. Mr cosmic is rocking a mean little get up consisting of a spacesuit. When you die on dead ops you go to the platforms, which are stationed in front of a old looking structure resembling a lot of the structures seen in the trailer for MP3. Do you think we finally get to meet him?

So, judging by the video i have seen, rxX1v3bjXak At 2:17, if you keep watching, you shall see some 'animals' Which seem to be carrying a power up, which changes. Also, at 2:24, if you keep watching you can see Takeo, then Nikolai, with what seems to be 'NEW EXTRA'S' (TRAPS) Along with Richtofen, riding on a 'cool mine cart' vehicle. Which, seems like a handy place to get around. At 2:30, he says that it is a thin, tight map. So, unlike Call Of The Dead it is hugely open, this map is tightly packed like 'vurrukt' and 'five'.... 'The story in Shangri-la, is shrouded and a mystery, I love the lead up to the fans with Der Reise, and got t…

8feet here... It really surprised me to see two of my ideas in the new zombie map! Note: I'm not actually sure if they did some changes, but I did saw one of my ideas running to how I explained it! 1. Maze Escape Route - Activate the maze to cut of the zombies! Raises walls to block them off. Video time = 2:27 2. Cart Escape - I originally called this "Moving Platform" my idea was to let players escape on the platform in 3 ways while able to shoot zombies on the go. Video time = 2:28 Video time = 2:36 Video = Thanks again Treyarch and God Bless to everyone! Evidence... Here's the Cart Escape evidence http://callofdutyzombi…

I dunno about anybody else, but I'm excited traps are making a comeback. Not only the new ones, but old electric ones possibly? A screenshot with what looks like a power box circled. BTW, Bamboo trap looks to be a possible new favorite The only thing I hope they change (but am sure they won't) is getting at the very least the kill count for zombies killed with traps. That's the main reason I don't usually use them when I play. No points, no kill credit. Next, could we see our first female Zombies in this map? New evil looking monkey as well as the Eclipse that could be like the new dogs, every 5 rounds or so? PA…

Sorry if this has been posted already but I found a quick little piece of information that might help as to why Shnagri-La is indeed paradise... "Shangri-La is a fictional place described in the 1933 novel Lost Horizon by British author James Hilton. In the book, "Shangri-La" is a mystical, harmonious valley, gently guided from a lamasery, enclosed in the western end of the Kunlun Mountains. Shangri-La has become synonymous with any earthly paradise but particularly a mythical Himalayan utopia — a permanently happy land, isolated from the outside world. In the novel Lost Horizon, the people who live at Shangri-La are almost immortal, living years beyond the normal li…

rxX1v3bjXak 3 important notes I found. 1. Original Cast obviously 2. RICHTOFEN IS IN NAZI OUTFIT 3. boss round is back with powerups floating above them? Back to number 2. It looks like my theory of the CotD encounter happening BEFORE Ascension. EDIT: boss rounds look like monkeys AND there is gonna be a solar eclipse happening which would make this the 2nd daytime map.

UPDATE: I decided to do further research, and it appears the Nazis were aware of and searching for Yetis in the 1930s: http://www.cryptomundo.com/cryptozoo-news/nazis-tibet-yeti/ So we're going to the legendary city of Shangri-La, and for those not yet aware, this particular city is said to be a Paradise that resides in some valley in the Himalayas. But lost cities are not the only thing that supposedly hides in these mountains. I want you to meet the Yeti, also known (rather informally) as the 'Abominable Snowmen'. In the case of Cryptozoology (the study of hidden animals), the Yeti are one or more species of bipedal ape that are supposedly found in the Himalay…

I dont know if any of you are familiar with the Uncharted series, but at the end of Uncharted 2, they go to a place called Shangri-la, also known as Shambala. It is basiaclly a paridise hidden in the Himalayas, and if Zombies are going there, it'll be awesome. Look it up, it's just a giant ancients city with ruines, lush plants and trees, and huge mountains going up the side of the valley.

As soon as I heard that was the name I researched Shangri-La right away, this is what I found. Shangri-La is a place described in a book titled Lost Horizon published in 1933. It is described as a permanently happy land. (I dont really think it will be this time) It is supposed to be isolated. (Aether maybe?) The people that lived there were near immortal. La usually means mountain so the map maybe set on a mountain. Update: The nazis had expeditions around the Himalayas and Everest to find Shangri-La. Thats all I have so far feel free to reply if you have anything to add to the post or if you are just feeling sad.

3 full zombie maps within 7 months??? However, the game was in development for 2 years, and we only received 1.5 zombie maps out of the disc (Five was copied straight from Story, so it doesn't really count). Also, Kino was supposed to be a WAW map, and was completed before MW2 came out. So, all of the Black Ops Zombie maps are DLC...... And all were very likely completed in 2010. Pretty bs if you ask me. Got nothing against Treyarch, however. Great game developers, and I'm looking forward to playing their next zombie map. It's this new trend on Publishers making the developers hold shit back for DLC that I don't like.

I was looking at the leaked Map Pack 3 poster and I looked at the maps. When I got to the zombies one, I immediately recognized the shape shown: it appears to be a NÄ�ga, a race/species/deity from Buddhist mythology/religion. They are similar to the Lung, also known as "Chinese Dragons." So this points to the map being in an Asian country, like India.

There has always been debate as far as whether or not Treyarch listens to the community here at CoDz. Well now that Map Pack 3 is coming up fast this month, I can say with confidence that yes, Treyarch is extremely dedicated to its community. A few months ago WhenWhereWhy posted a thread asking you to begin writing out your ideas for a Black Ops map pack, and it appears that they have taken our ideas to heart. viewtopic.php?f=53&t=6801&hilit=the+final+mother Two examples of this are the upcoming maps Silo and Hazard. Silo appears to be taken from my idea Epicenter! The same goes for hazard, which seems close to my idea of scorched (IE NVA town is floode…

Telixion tweeted earlier something along the lines of "I love the song beauty of ANNIHILATION. Hmm i capilized that. All will be explained tomorow." Now more leaked pics of the map pack have come out later on after he said that and it is revealed that it is called Annihilation. Now he said we would find out tomorrow so these LEAKED pictures cannot mean anything. I am expecting a map pack confirmation tomorrow. Also the release date is set for the 28th of June 2011.

good theory! Also i have a theory. You know how some people found ascension clues on campaign like the ascension group. Well i was thinking when you play call of the dead online on the loading screen on the top corners their is a part from ascension on the left and another that looks like a jungle on the right. When you send the old characters to paradise or free them on call of the dead, i dont know how it is on ps3 but when you do that on xbox360 you get an achievement that says you have to send the crew to paradise, in the campaign one mission is called crash site and a guy tells you welcome to paradise. In that mission, its like a jungle so i was thinking what if the …
