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.

I hope Shangri-La will be vary vague in the clues to the Easter egg, like Ascension because it made the hunt way more fun and longer because you really did not know if it was the end or not. I would also like it if there was not achievements for finishing the Easter egg, but just one for starting it. I think this would add a little more mystery as to when it ends.

Here is another one of my long-ish write ups. I combined all the different note-worthy things I have found around Shangri-La. Hopefully I can help connect the dots explaining the mountain range easter egg. Enjoy! Loading Screen/Mountain relation. My theory is that everyone is looking at it backwards. Everyone is saying “Hey, look at that mountain, it’s out of place!”, and automatically making the assumption that since the hill is out of place, the entirety Shangri-La shouldn’t be there. Let us take a step back; Think for a sec. We have two things that don’t mix. Why are we assuming that the mountain is automatically the one that –should- be there? I think th…

I noticed a picture of what seems to be an 8-point star on the wall when the monkey's come in the trailer. At first I thought it was the "Star of David", but when I looked it up it didn't look exactly right. Upon more research I came to find out it was called an "8-point star" and has various meanings among cultures. Here's a link... http://www.moroccoboard.com/features/92 ... point-star It seems it deals with more Islamic and Moroccan culture than anything, but that doesn't really seem to fit with the setting of Shangri-La or the storyline of zombies at all. Since it's supposed to be somewhere in Asia. Upon more examination I came across someth…

okay so we all no that Area 51 is the next map, it will be called Quarantine and in Shangri la dempsey mentions "you guys never give the community what they want" what have we been asking for for SO LONG! i mean we all wanted the ppsh in WAW and they gave it to us, and the AK47 might be the samee and/or the M60, these are just thoughts that are highly likely! *EDIT* i know the next map because the leak a couple weeks ago, there will be Cargo Mansion metro and one more but i forgot* and QUARANTINE(:

Judging by the trailers this map looks kinda like Verrückt (tight corridors and corners) so to survive you would just run around the map. The best weapons for this would probably be the 31-79 JGb215 so if you get trapped you shoot it and run through the zombies. The other weapon would probably be the Ray Gun (if included) or a LMG like the RPK. Obviously you would have the monkey bombs. Perks wise you would probably want Quick Revive, Stamin-Up, Juggernog and any other perk you want. This is a theory so don't flame. What do you think you would want for a strategy.

The Shangri-La easter egg seems to have all of the problems of the Ascension egg, and so I will never be able to finish it. There is no solo mode. This is the most annoying right now, because on top of not being able to finish, the eclipse just looks cool. It cannot be done without the full cooperation of all 4 participants. This is the most annoying in the long run, because playing online has rendered me 100% impossibility of finding 4 competent players in the same room at the same time. Through the entire time I have been playing BO (since launch), I have played almost exclusively with randoms, and I have had a group of 4 players all consistently able to surv…

Rumors are spreading that there will be a fourth map pack coming to Black Ops, named Retaliation. The rumored maps in the Pack are supposedly called: -Mansion, which takes place in Castro's secret compound in Cuba -Cargo, which takes place in a frozen shipping place in Greenland -Metro, which takes place in a city in Vietnam -Harbor, which takes place in an abandoned Shipyard in America. The zombie map will be called Quarantine, set in Area 51, which is a military base in Nevada which is classified as non-exsistent. There is also another hint that there there will be a fourth map pack: There's another page in the Zombie comic book on the Shangri-La loading scr…

I noticed this the first time I saw the Annihilation video. Go to 2:47 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rxX1v3bjXak You see this streak of light go across the sky. My thoughts are that the light is the crew. When you send them off in COTD, they go through the teleporter and travel to Shangri La.(NO BRAINIER) I could see this as a beginning cut-scene, showing them flying in and explaining why they are there. Please let me know what your guys theories are. :D

i had a look at all the other threads and there doesnt seem to be any that people could just contribute little tid-bits of info, so i made one. This is for people seeing something very small in the trailer and just putting it in here, rather than making a new thread or posting in an unrelated one so starting off: monkey things contain random pick-ups. they change, and most likely will drop whatever one you kill them on. women zombies. heroes return Nice new escape method of a boat thing There will be more info soon with inside xbox and probably a full zombies trailer, so more info can be compiled then here

im not sure if this works on co-op too as i have only tried it on solo. first you turn the power on then return to the spawn room there will be a spinning statue near quick revive with a pressure pad in the middle of that area. stand on the pad till the statue stops spinning and stairs should rise at the bottom of the staircase to p-a-p letting you access it

Can't find any good images of the old monkeys to know if this is a new feature or not, anyone mind helping? I think this may be a sign that this map may be like our good ol fashioned zombie maps! Good trailer, followed with a good map with excellent gameplay and lots of secrets! I feel like 935 has been a little absent since DR.

i think they are both equally good guns. i think the wunderwaffe is the kind of power gun that you would need in order to get into the high rounds. the 31-79 JGb215 shrinks the zombies into wee babies and you can kick them flying away. reply as to what you think is better. thanks. :D

So after a heated debate with another member about whether Jug moves or not, I looked constantly at the trailer to try to disprove.... after extreme examination.... I'll admit I was wrong.... the picture he posted behind the spikes has got to be a new perk... It's not jug.... There's 2 ways to prove this. You see the 5? Jug doesn't have a 5, it has a 10. Also, it looks to me like some sort of skull on the top instead of the health sign like Jug. I also thought it was peculiar that there is sort of an outline of the machine on the ground. That's what originally got me looking... Edit: Here's a picture of Juggernog to compare.... NOWHERE does it have a…

Hi everyone, As you might know, the german word "Schwarze Sonne" (black sun) was written on a chalkboard on Der Riese. >> "Schwarze Sonne" on Wikipedia. Please read it my english isnt good enough to explain it... This is the symbol of "Schwarze Sonne": And I think you can see it in the Shangri-La loading-screen with a bit fantasy... I think this could be a link to Der Riese/Dr. Maxis/Group 935. I hope you unterstand what I try to show you . Sry if someone posted already.

Hello Codz, thought I'd bring this theory over to the Asylum to develop a fully speculated theory. This theory also has to do with the recent speculations of the "Mountains" on Shangri La. I understand that there are various theories involving Shangri La being located on Mars, but I thought this theory should be shown to you as it fits very well, especially when linking it to the Vrill-Ya. If you are unfamiliar with the mountain speculation, here is the picture of the developers tweeting about the mountains in Shangri La, so the mountains have some obvious relevance to the location and the so called "Best kept secret of Zombies". So obviously we have some specula…
