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.

alright if someone gets the focusing stone does everyone get all 7 perks and the achievement or just the person with the stone? Been trying to do the EE but people havent been reliable on XBL. They either get the Shrink gun and waste all the ammo or just kill crawlers etc. So I wanna know so someone doesnt take it and we all get screwed if the wrong guy gets it.

Welp Guys.... The names for the maps are out. I found this on a leaked Gamestop poster which is the same format as map pack 2. The posters are also on youtube. Heres the link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2KjqZccQ ... ture=feedu The multiplayer maps and zombie map are as follows 1. Hangar 18 2. Drive in 3. Silo 4. Hazard 5. Zombie Map (Name not included) Also if you look closely at the poster, you see a zombie near a tree of some sort, which leaves me to believe that the map definitely will be set in a jungle (AKA Paradise). With one zombie map left in this map pack we may have to kiss the zombies slayin goodbye....or just wait anoth…

Since people have complete the Shangri La EE, they have began to think that Richtofen could be the antagonist in the next map. If he is then we need a new character. So lets start at Kino... There is a blanked out portrait next to the 4 characters own. One of Takeos quotes is : "Perhaps what once was, is no more, but shall be again!" We can begin to relate this to Brock, who is the explorer in the Shangri La radios. He supposedly dies in the first radio you find, however, when you do the EE you go back in time, free him and save him. Double Ending Now onto my double ending theory... With Richtofen (possibly) being the antago…

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.

Mod please move this to shangri-la So you all have seen the trailer for the new map (I hope...) and I was thinking, we haven't heard much of maxis or samantha, or that zombie D3MON (see what i did there? ) that was seen on fire... so i was thinking, could that be the maxis/samantha/hell-hound hybrid? the "Boss zombie" we've all been waiting for? I'm not talking F***ing stupid thing that walks around (george) but like a round high zombie, (ex. get to round 70 and you get boss zombie!) where we get final confrontation with maxis/Samantha hybrid. Just my 2 cents. Anyone agree this is a possibility? We've been asking for a boss zombie for a long time. Maybe Treyarch de…

A lot of people have been making a fuss about these monkeys so I thought I share my thoughts. First off, stop comparing them to Ascension monkeys or the Cosmic Silverback, that's just ridiculous and they look nothing alike. Next, I believe that when you kill the monkeys, whatever perk it was on when killed will be dropped. So that people can't exploit max ammos I think that the more damage he takes, the faster the perks will rotate through their cycle. As for when they appear, I don't think it will be a "Every 5 rounds" kind of thong like with hellhounds, I think it'll be every 1-2 rounds. Feel free to comment with your thoughts!

Alright guys here is the quote from Treyarch "Zombies return with vengeance in the mysterious land of "Shangri-La," a legendary shrine lost in an exotic jungle. Never before seen undead creatures lurk within a treacherous labyrinth of underground caverns. Step carefully through deadly traps and solve the dark secrets buried within the shifting walls of a long last land." What interests me is the "dark secrets within the shifting walls." SO! The new Easter Egg or something huge to the story will be behind some shifting walls! so excited!

Or does something happen when you do all four? 'Cause I've done that and nothing happened. Please offer ideas (or the answer, If it's common knowledge)

I am assuming you already know how to horde up zombies otherwise it would be an entirely different topic. Alternative to kicking is 1. Use Mustang and sally (preferred way when you are solo) 2. Throw semtex first and then shoot (preferred with with 2 players..) 3. Shoot Ray gun after you shoot. If you are hording up zombies in power or AK room and your partner is by MPL just merge your zombies (Tell him to …

I started to investigate whether the game recognises that I've completed the CotD Easter Egg.....when starting Shangri-La solo last night Richtofen had the Golden Rod. When I started Shangri-La with my wife's PSN profile Richtofen did not have the Golden Rod (as she has not got any Black Ops trophies). So I thought his was good news!! However when I played co-op over PSN on my 2 PS3s (both split screen), none of the 4 players had the Golden Rod, even when I was Richtofen and the host, despite having done the previous Easter Eggs. Unfortunately this leaves more queries: 1. Is the Golden Rod not given in split-screen? 2. Is the Golden Rod not given in online split-sc…

The easter egg in shangri-la has the 12 slabs that you step on and they are all illuminati symbols and this looks like a jumble of letters and numbers but here they are: c e g k l q r s 1 2/3 (cant tell because there are two half circles) p i this may just be that they used illuminati symbols just because and its a coincidence that you can translate it to words. It will be worth a try

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?

So I don't know if it's just the people I've played this level with, or if just not many people in general do this, but people think we are insane for this. My buddy and I always grab spikemores as soon as it's opened, and plant them on the bridge, or wherever we may be. The beginning of every round, and every max ammo, they get placed so the wont explode. I guess they come in handy if you happen to run out of ammo completely, you could keep picking them up and using them in place of your weapons, though we never really get to that point. However, be careful *DO NOT PLANT TOO MANY SPIKEMORES* it will boot you out of the game you are playing with an error messag…

So today I hopped on the good ol' PS3, started up the EE, and a couple of friends and I had about 3 crawlers left and a napalmbie for the gas valve step. Well, a little ways down the tunnel, one of our crawler dies, and the napalmbie goes into a dead sprint. It actually ran into my mate and downed him. That's the first time I've seen that happen. It happened again twice in solo. Is it a glitch or does it normally happen? Either way, it tends to be almost always a game ender for solo. :L

Some one in the forum pointed that perk bottle always appears when max ammo is dropped and the first one to randomize is perk bottle. Edit: These videos prove that perk bottle is always random each time. But it remains in the same order for that spin.

Then i was like maybe if theres a MP4 (map pack 4) it will have a futuristic map as well. i was thinking of possible maps that could be it and the first thing that came to mind AREA 51. I mean when you think of area 51 it just seems like a futuristic map, i mean i could never…

Like the title says. Shangri-La looks challanging. Fun, but challanging. I wouldn't take a run at this map with less than 4 players. I love two strategies, camping and running through multiple traps in a continuous loop. This map looks like it will provide both. There doesn't appear to be much open area, but it also looks like a big map, so I am thinking this is a good thing. Also the fact that monkeys return and there appears to be some kind of upgraded spiked claymore tells me this will be a good map. In my opinion the monkeys are the best wundergrenade. I wonder what challenges the eclipse will bring as night turns to day. Just some thoughts/opinions/ideas.

Hey guys, so here's a vid of some footage from my recent run to 100 on Shangri La that I finished last Tuesday, including a full playthrough of round 99 as well as a bit of easy early rounds strategy. This AK strategy, which becomes effective at 40+, is basically a spin-off of the co-op AK strategy, to round 100 solo with 0 downs until suicide at 100. Myself, Choppernator and Tom have been discussing this strategy for the past week, and all of our ideas have been rolled into the strategy you're seeing here, credit to those guys for this as well as myself. Only 3 Shrink Gun recycles throughout the whole game, Max Ammos were dropping quite regularly. 0:00 Ear…
