General Zombies Discussion
Come here to talk about aspects of Zombies that just don't seem to fit into other sections.
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.

You can play with your friends and have a good time, it's always fun to just stop being serious and play around every now and then. http://youtu.be/tvtNxic7IoU?hd=1&t=1s tvtNxic7IoU Sorry i don't know how to embed.

please take some time and watch these 2 videos, everyone is talking about this idea and 99% of people want to see this happen. 1. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z1ijNfufp3s 2. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yxJkMlqYrys the first video has a very annoying voice over but just bare with it and take the info from the video the second video will make you understand the gaming experience this would bring if we are successful as a community at bringing this map to life. lets push this idea so we can see this eventually enter the game for black ops 2. please feel free to contact treyarch and let me know of your interest, lets make this the first map…

This One’s For You, MurderMachineX I am a flawed person. I am. Just like every person, there are things I am good at, and things I am poor at. Taking drawing, for instance. A classmate, commenting on my self-portrait I painted in 9th grade, told me that my face resembled one of the monsters in Amnesia: The Dark Descent. Which, if you don’t know what that looks like, I’ll leave it as a spoiler image. But be forewarned, it is quite scary! Now for Murder’s response. Well, Mr. Machine, I thank you for your very detailed response! A lot of this stuff is truly situational, but after reading through some past works, I have decide…

A twitter user asked Mr. Vonderhaar when the next Double Xp would be happening, and he replied with 3 or 4 weeks. Well, we all know that these events usually come after a DLC. Hmm... just a thought to put out there.

Hey guys. I've been working on a Zombie guide for about a year now. I'm nearing completion, but there is a couple sections I'm still working on. You may have seen my storyline thread; that is one. But another is the Questions and Answers section. I'm trying to make a section talk about all the miscellaneous questions people may have that they couldn't find the answers to. So I made this thread and I was hoping that anyone reading this could help me out by doing one thing: asking questions. Please, ask me ANY Zombie-related questions. I will use everything I can to answer the as correctly as possible, and I do believe myself qualified to answer them. Hopefully, i…

Hey guys, if you seen my iOS Ascension findings thread, you would've seen what I'm talking about. If not, here are the images. Now the first thing you'll think of is that it is made like because the graphical limitations of iOS can't handle them being blown away. I thought of this too, however I changed my mind for reasons which I will state below. - When you kill a crawler by knifing it, it flies (or should I say 'snaps') back a bit. Using that kind of code, they could've made the zombies fly backwards after being shot. - If it was graphical limitations, than they could've just let them drop to ground as if being killed by a non-wonder weapon. -…

It's nearly here boys... Well... I say nearly but I still put it about a month away... In the past with BO2 and such, we get a nice little reveal trailer in early may, and wednesday is april 1st! It's logical they'll wait until after the hype from this DLC has gone down to release this info, but seriously I am PUMPED and Have my eyes pealed for info! What do you guys think we're going to see about a month from now? Easter eggs? Will it all be campaign, or will there be zombies bits released in the reveal trailer? What kind of game will it be? BO3, WAW2, or a brand new title? Tell me below!

As we all should know the time bomb is a device that sends us back in time. Now, so far we have seen time teleportation but not in such a controlled matter. For example, the jump from Der Riese to Kino was actually a malfunction in of itself due to too much 115 input (DG-2 shocking the teleporter). Then they were thrown randomly through time somehow landing in Kino. Now to my questions. How did whoever you believe to have made the time bomb make it? What does it run on? 115? Or some different technology? And how is it so controlled?

I'm not sure if someone already posted this, but in Moon what happens with the Easter Egg proves one of my theories correct. In an old thread I stated that the map "Call of the Dead" is somewhere around the sixties. A lot of people critisized me and said it was set in 2013 or 2014 and pretty much just modern time. Well IN the sixties the team went to the moon and blew up the Earth. So if Call of the Dead is in modern time, wouldn't the Earth be destroyed? Now someone could argue that Moon was set in modern times, but c'mon. Really? And someone could include time travel where the team traveled time but wouldn't they have modern technology or modern weapons? Plea…

The talk of teleportation and time travel, in the Teleporters thread, started me thinking about COTD. The vril generator, or golden rod, is used to transport the O4 through time. Does anybody think that maybe Richtofen still has access to the vril generator? If he does, he could be using it to transport the O4 through time over and over because he keeps creating drastic changes in the timeline each time. The chapters of the story in Moon, and BO2 could be just different periods in between time travel. One detail that I know cannot be found, and therefore makes the theory incomplete, is that whether or not the person holding the vril generator retains some or all of …

Just wanted to point out three points which many have overlooked; 1. In Shi no Numa we have the radio explaining the characters time travel, how it was due to the wunderwaffe firing on the teleporter. As far as we know there are no other radios or mentions of this happening again. 2. The characters use Cold war weapons up to moon without any new/modern ones, knowing Treyarch they wouldn't have been lazy enough not to at least include modern weapons if any map was in the present. 3. The only reason for the time travel in Kino was to bring the characters and the plot into the era the game was set in, i.e. cold war, to utilise the weapons and maps of this ga…

Nixon was never born. Call of The Dead disapeared from the timeline. Two explorers were traped in an continous loop. Pancakes. (I got hungry). One ruled it with 115. Another one attempts to use it with electricity. The little things that we know about the MDT. But what power does it really have? Maxis states that it moves the objects just through space, but on the other hand Rictofen, states that it can move the objects BOTH through time and space.In Black ops the MDTs were a well known thing. Now we haven't seen even a part of those things! The two maps Green Run and Great Leap Forward introduced us to our new planet, Burning poop land. The same introduction type was wit…

Okay, so we all know there has been some debate (for lack of a better term) on when exactly Zombies in BO2 takes place. Many well known people, including RotflWaffles, are under the impression that Green Run takes place during the Cold War Era. But, I have another theory that, if true, could explain several things. Now, I have been told that judging a map's timeframe by its weapons isn't viable. But be honest: Many of the weapons used in BO2 CAMPAIGN have variations that are in use today. If the rockets hit earth in the late 60's/early 70's, these weapons couldn't have been invented. People would be too busy trying to survive the zombie apocolypse. Now, going off …

Hang on. If we are talking about universes, I got it. WAW-BOII exists on what I call Earth-1. Now, Origins is special. It starts the saga of our heroes on Earth-2. At the end of Origins, Samantha teleports our heroes minus Richy to the Giant. She teleports Richy to Shadows to get the Summoning Key, as seen in the Easter Egg cutscene. Now, the portal that he runs through takes him to the teleporter in the Giant. The oping cutscene happens, Richy shoots himself, signifying his plan to use the Key and other devices to set his past and future right. BOOM!

Right, I'm mega busy at work but I'll get this short. I'm not offering tips as I don't have any. But I would like some of our more experienced members to post tips, ideas, clues, historic stories, in order to help out the community in order to find the Easter Eggs. What sort of things should we be looking for? Are we listening to quotes? Are we to be pushing every button on every object within the map?? Anything that could help us begin the search when it comes to release.

Okay guys, so I just died on my first legit high round attempt at 97 on Ascension. I know it's no 161 or whatever, but I was proud of it. I didn't regret anything about it—I played well. But alas, I digress. Both times I went down (I lost the other revive to monkeys) was because I had Mule Kick and I was trying to get back my Thundergun midround, and I couldn't pull out my Awful Lawton in time to save my butt. There were really only two spots I ever had trouble with: power room spawn, and the Mule Kick spawn. I could imagine on other maps, there are similar box spawns to these as well that would be a pain in the ass to hit midround. So does anyone have tips for …

Greetings CoDz. Since not much else is going on around here, I'm going to add some random nonsense to the New Content tab. Playing zombies is almost a self defeating game, there is a thrill in the exploration of the new, there is a thrill in mastery of the old, and there is a thrill in the progress and the concept of breaking your high score. However exploration of new is quickly gone, mastery of the old arrives not too far after. Both are inevitable if you play even occasionally on a regular basis. All that remains is breaking your high score. However that too is self defeating. The more you break your high score, the harder and more time consuming it will b…

Got some info on Bootcamp for the army. First day, you have to hold you're civilian pack over your head for 3 hours, so this got me thinking about practicing holding things over my head for long periods of time. I thought why not make this into a training excercise while I play zombies.... So I played Ascension... I got to 30.. Took an hour and 5 minutes... I held my controller over my head the ENTIRE time! I did NOT stop for anything. Not to scratch an itch, not to use the bathroom.... And believe me when I say it is HARD. Not just hard on my shoulders, but hard in the game! The first MINUTE was easy, just kinda painful. The next 10 were EXCRUCIATING! AFter tha…

Some people need microphone, some people hate microphone. I have one but never use it. Having solid communication can change the dynamics of a game when things are heading south. Many times during games I wish I had them. I can count number of times I could have told people not to risk themselves trying to revive me with no ammo left. I could count number of times luring a full train away from down teammates being labeled jack ass. I can count number of times having trouble telling someone not to do something. I even remember one time running on the top war room for 10 minutes during thief round before anyone realized the situation. I am not bashing the ra…

Hello. I made a speed run guide, showing a full gameplay speed run on Ascension. I've tried to keep all the tips in general, so that you can adapt this strategy for other maps. The speed run is not executed perfectly, so that you can actually set it as your challenge, to make this even faster.

A lot of people were saying that this object behind the zombies head was Mule Kick. After the Black Ops 2 Facebook page uploaded a higher resolution I decided to look at what exactly this "Vent" thing was. Well, it's not a vent. "Tombstone" The object is shaped like a tombstone in general, but obviously it's not a normal tombstone. This will ring some bells to a few of you, but please DON'T DISCUSS LEAKS. U-511SETLx0
