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.

When reading through Valor1204's idea for customization in Zombie private matches (viewtopic.php?f=100&t=21638), I got to thinking: What if we were able to access the most popular of these modes in an improved Community playlist, similar to the one we saw in MW3. If Treyarch do indeed decide to do team-based gamemodes for zombies, which is likely judging by Mark Lamia's recent hints, it would not be naive to suspect we would have private matches. When Infinity Ward saw the popularity of the "Infected" game-type they made a community playlist so that people could enjoy it as a true, XP-based game-mode like any other. I believe if we are to see another commun…

I think that in certain modes of zombies, they should do what they do with dogs in MW2 and MW3. The zombie tackles you, and you have to press RS to stab it or it starts to eat you. I think its a cool idea. Anyone else think this is a cool idea?

Everyone has been making topics on the things Treyarch should implement in the Black Ops 2 installment of Zombies. With all of those threads in place, I feel it necessary to examine the things that made Zombies so special, and to discuss the things Treyarch should NOT change to ensure that we are all playing the Zombies that we fell in love with. Give me some thoughts For instance, I believe they should keep solo leaderboards OUT of Black Ops 2. Personally, I don't normally keep track of co-op world records on Black Ops because of the amount of glitchers/hackers on the leaderboards. If they add were to add leaderboards to solo play in Black Ops 2, the same would sur…

Well, it's about time for another idea thread, and I think i'll host it. I expect them to BLOW US AWAY with Zombies. They've had a decent amount of time to perfect the game mode, and I believe that his is what the fans will be waiting for. What do you guys expect?

I am worried about Zombies in BO2. Zombies was the reason I bought WaW and BO, but I think that they are fattening up Zombies too much now. I mean, 8 players? Team gametypes? The thing that worried me most was when Mark Lamia said that "...more isn't always better. Except with zombies." It just goes to show that Treyarch has adopted the idea that more stuff in Zombies is better, and I think that is what will cause it to go down the shitter. More features does not equal better. They are now focusing on getting as much crap into it as possible, rather than focusing on making it fun and intuitive. Just look at Moon. I think they REALLY got carried away with this map, and not…

Ok... What I just thought has me excited at the moment so you will have to excuse me. So far we have confirmed that there will be 8 players, various game modes, as well as the original game modes. This leads me to believe there will be not only more maps for zombies upon release, but in each DLC. There are differences between each aspect we have confirmed, that will depend on different maps. I'll explain. As STRWRSBOB said on a previous topic, The original zombies mode could not be on the same map as any of the others, because it would be too easy. Also IMO it would be hard to incorporate eggs and other story effects into say, a multi-player type map. Now, on to …

By now I'm sure many of you have heard the rumors of a new game mode: Escort. The supposed premise of this mode is: one team must defend the escort to 3 different flags to win (don't know if it's meant to be round-based or not). If the escort dies, other team wins. Judging by the fact that Mark Lamia has already hinted at some team-based zombie game-modes in addition to the new zombie modes presented in Black Ops II, I think it would be awesome if they made a zombie variant of Escort. Imagine how fun it would be, an 8-man team escorting a Player-VIP to three drop points whilst simultaneously holding off hordes of the undead and scoring a crap-ton of points along…

First of all; hello everyone! Seems like an age since I have posted. Hope to be much more involved again here in Codz in run up to BO2 As much as I loved the old storyline, I believe it may have gotten a little stale. I cannot really see anyway Treyarch can coherently keep it going after Moon if i'm honest - think they may have flogged a little to much of a good thing in my own opinion. Maybe they could do some sort of round off to the story though - don't know about anyone else but with earth seemingly destroyed doesn't really leave much room for any future in that particular zombie storyline? Perhaps having a keepsake from this original storyline (aka grown-up Sam…

Just going through Twitter, and stumbled across Brian Tuey, the sound designer at Treyarch. You'll see him in the Moon Trailer. Somebody asked him when there would be news on Zombies. He replied; Now, what "soon" means, I don't know. Whether that's in thew next few months, or later on? I don't know. But it makes it certain that they're not trying to hide anything with Zombies. Their attitude with it is very much, "It's in the game. Expect news a bit later" CCM

Mark Lamia stated that Zombies will be running off of the multiplayer engine. In multiplayer, we've always had customizable private matches. Possibly, in Black Ops II, we'll be able to set up our own Zombies mode/gametype. We can possibly set a time limit, different scoring, possible objectives, starting weapons, classes, available weapons/perks, etc. All of those things depend on what will be in the game. I think it would be neat, especially for challenges, to have private matches set up like this. It's plausible because it is running off of the multiplayer engine. Sorry if this has already been touched upon. Thoughts?

I was reading about new modes of zombies in Black Ops 2, and I instantly remembered about Counter Strike 1,6 and Source old zombie mods. Im going to explain to who dont know how it is: Everyone spawn as a human, like 8 players, then after some time some random player turns into a zombie, and the other 7 need to run and find some place to barricade and protect. That 1 zombie guy have alot of hp ofcourse, and he needs to bite other humans to turn them into zombies, its like 1 bite (melee attack) to turn into zombies. The round ends when the zombie die or everyone turn into a zombie. It was sooo fun to play that in CS:Source, best zombie mode i ever played…

Well, since we were left off with the whole Big Bang easter egg where Richtofen and Sam switched bodies, the Earth is now blown up, AND the other three characters have regained their memory completely, what do you think will happen? How do you think "Dick-Tofen," as Dempsey so elegantly put it, will affect our gameplay in the future? Also, take note that while on Earth after it has been blown up, from one of the very far corners of Area 51, another Earth can be seen. Do you think this was a mistake or did Treyarch intentionally do this?

I've heard from a few people that they sometimes take it in turns playing solo in a co-op game so that their partner can have a break or go to sleep, and then they swap over. How effective is this strategy and have you ever used it yourself? There is obviously high risk involved because if you make a mistake and get downed you have nobody to revive you, but it allows you to progress much higher if you can pull it off. However, in terms of speed, would you say it's a quicker method overall?

Obviously, Mark Lamia from treyarch announced that zombies was being moved to the multiplayer engine which would allow double the zombies and double the players. So yes, there will be an eight player capability, but i want you trolls to read this and read it clear: STOP SAYING HAVING EIGHT PLAYERS WILL MAKE ZOMBIES GAY. YOU WILL HAVE THE OPTION TO HAVE ANYWHERE FROM 2-8 PLAYERS WHICH MEANS YOU DO NOT HAVE TO PLAY WITH EIGHT PEOPLE. YOU SIMPLY SELECT PRIVATE MATCH, INVITE AS MANY PEOPLE AS YOU WANT, AND START THE DAMN GAME. TREYARCH IS NOT FORCING EIGHT PLAYERS ON ANYONE SO STOP COMPLAINING OR DONT PLAY. I have made my point here so this is left open for discussi…

1) This game mode will work with 2, 4, 6 or 8 players. When the game starts the players are equally divided into two teams, lets say red and blue for an example. The idea of the game is for one team to win the other team in scoring points. You can only revive someone if they are on your team. If a zombie drops a powerup, instead of them being green they will be red or blue, red team can only get the red ones vice versa. The game will end when 1 team is dead. 2) A normal zombies game except ones your gone your gone, if your down your in 'last stand' longer until you completely die. When you die you are automatically booted from the game and you will get your match b…

So as some of you know http://www.callofduty.com/classified Has still 5 classified boards that hasn't been used. As for at least my surprise 3ARC came out and instantly revealed zombie mode during the reveal. With Black Ops they were super secret about it. This gives me a hunch that they will have full out zombie add campaign at some point just like they will have with MP. So we need to keep eye on that website if zombies one day appear there :lol:

Was reading weapon stats on classic maps and noticed they are much weaker than the black ops weapons. Thompson is the best machine gun at 200/20 with 480 head shots. Galil is far superior at 350/35 with 600 head shots. P96A1 does a whopping 3000 head shot, one hit kill until round 21. Am I missing something? I play the black ops version of the classic maps so maybe the weapons are updated. Can anyone confirm this?

I have had some ideas for zombie maps: 1. an abandoned school. you could start off in a sports hall or the playground. and when you walk through the corridors there could be a quiet eerie sound of children's laughter. also a perfect place to find Samantha! The zombies could be teachers, or even students! 2. a shopping mall. special melee weapons, lifts, escalators and undead shoppers! fat zombies, that explode into gas like crawlers! 3. basically, the map is a long sideways trench. your weapons start with light machine guns. there are mounted guns with unlimited ammo. no barriers. zombies only come from one side of the trench. hold them off as long as you c…

It has been a busy week for me. Work load was heavy, wife's business needed assistance, and kids are always pain in the ass. Perfect time to reflect on our mentors. We were all terrible at some point. We watched someone else play and improved our game. I still laugh at the days of buying Olympia by round two and happy to reach round 8. My son's friend pointed out this individual on YouTube called Xcalizorz who provided much improvement to his game. I watched his Five video and learned about the point system and head shots. His videos provided my first major growth in my game. After being able to reach 30 solo on five, I started playing co-op and struggled…

Hey guys my name is Marv, new user and long time lurker bringing you my ideas for two new modes and a new perk machine. Since it's rumoured (or confirmed?) that you'll be able to play with up to 8 players in zombies, I thought of two new modes that could work really really well. Apocalypse This mode is similar to COD4's Zombie Mod and MW3's Survival mode. You level up during matches and you can buy weapons,explosives,equipment,perks(pro perks directly when you buy them) and killstreaks in the spawn. Along with the dogs and Nova Gas zombies, I thought it would be cool to see some Juggernauts(basically Left4Dead Tanks) and Kamikaze Zombies, that will blow up in…

As we all know, the zombies game mode is moving to the multiplayer engine, allowing for more zombies and more players. I have an idea for a map that would allow the new characters their introduction, without leaving out the original crew. My ideas are as follows: Limbo:Sometime between Moon and 2025, our new crew stumbles across an old teleporter marked "Failed". One of the characters thinks they fixed it and the crew sets off in search of the truth. What they find will be beyond their Darkest nightmares. Map Size:Medium/Small Overall Appearance: This map will appear to be nowhere with nothing around except sand bags surrounding the map. No walls that you can see. P…

Basically it is the idea behind the multiplayer contracts in Black Ops, but the descriptions obviously altered. Say kill 100 zombies in 10 minutes, kill 500 zombies with the Ray Gun, Revive a certain amount of people on a certain map, etc. I'm unsure of the reward however, but I'm sure Treyarch will figure it out. Now that it's running on the Multiplayer engine, it's actually possible for them to do this. :)
