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.

Hi, it's the boring guy. I'm old fashioned, and often hesitate from trying new things. Sticking it in the back door, is never high on my list. Actually, it's on my not to do list. Often after playing a few times on a certain map, I develop a strategy customized to fit how I play the map. Some doors open, some closed by design. On Verrukt solo, I like going to the power from the MP40 side, and leave the spawn to Thompson closed. At least initially. It makes camping in Thompson nice and easy. On Ascension, I always leave the MPL to spawn closed. It makes monkey rounds a tad easier. On COTD, I like the AK door closed, the boat from AK to Jug closed.…

Why do the slower zombies get to you before the fast sprinting zombies? To make sense it would have to be the other way around right? Imagine the gameplay if round one was all sprinters and round 30 was super slow walking zombies Example two: Why can these characters open doors, but not close them? Clearly the zombies can not go through these doors, so why not save themselves a lot of trouble and just close the door behind them? Also, why are there never any zombies waiting for you in the room when you open it? It does not make sense why tons of zombies could be pouring in the entrances to the room you are in, but none of them had the idea to try to enter…

"I knew I was a good player when I got to 36 on COTD with JamesZombiKiller, with only 3 downs on a 1-bar connection." ~Ehjookayted Hopefully you guys can share some of your anecdotes. If you don't think you're good yet, then post what you'd like to be able to do that would give you that confidence to say, "I am a good zombies player." This isn't meant to be cocky or flaunt skills, just to throw modesty aside for once, and be honest. We have some great players on this site, and while humility is nice, sometimes we just ask for compliments via denial. Am I right? 8-) I'm just kidding. Let's share some stories and reminisce!

I wasn't a big part of the community back in black ops 1 or world at war days (only watched syndicate from time to time) so I don't know if it was like this back then, but since black ops 2 has come out I have heard of countless complaints throughout big youtubers (syndicate, relaxingend, ngt just to name a few) and throughout the forums as well. The first major complaint was the lava... yes it can be annoying at times but it was put into the game as an extra challenge. if you play the maps well enough, you will end up jumping without even realizing it. The lava doesn't even hurt you that much (besides the big pits). If you are beat red and run over a crack of …

So I was playing with some randoms today (just out of boredom and fun) and I noticed that with the update treyarch made it where you join random players who do not have a full lobby. This can either work out good.. Or bad. In my case it was bad, I spawned on round 12 with nothing but a pistol in the power room, confused I thought I glitches and the ransoms told me "no you can join games already in session" I then died trying to start a train with no jug.. I was so confused I just quit. I joined another game, same result except this time these ransoms were on round 18! I spawned on the roof luckily with the others and pretty much hide behind everyone with PaP weapon…

Hey, I was just wondering why no one's really looked into the astronaut zombie? I always thought there was more than meets the eye to him. (which is very little). For example: -why does he explode like that upon death? -why is he so powerful? -how can he headbutt you, and teleport you somewhere else, while stealing a perk? Very odd. -why does he spawn in a flash of lightning? I'm not very good at researching things, so can my friends here at CODZ help me out with these mysteries? If these have already been answered I apologize.

What is a zombie map you would prefer? I would choose: A map where all maps with a teleporter are connected and you can teleport between maps like five, kino, Der Riese, and put in hidden teleporters into the other maps as well. What's your best idea for a zombie map?

So after 2 unsuccesful tries at the easter egg me and some other guys were at the last step of the easter egg. it was round 11 and all we needed to do was knife the tower. It win the middle of the round when I heard "you got 5 minutes till I'm turning it off" in the background. I then rushed to get the last 1000 points to get the galva knuckles. I run to get them while the other guy was saying "don't do it in the middle of the round, you are going to go down" I then told him to chill that I have done it 100s of times before and I could do it again. but guess what, I go down after I miss a jump in the elevator shaft after buying the galva knuckles. The other guy was …

Having played this game for years, I have traveled a long way from my Olympia days. With that said, I still have a glaring achilles that tend to bother me. I know exactly what it is and how to neutralize it, but I just can't seem to shake it. My biggest enemy? Myself, and the thought of "I can do it. In the back of my mind, I knew I shouldn't have, yet too greedy to not knife one last time. In the back of my mind, I knew I shouldn't have, yet too greedy to pass up Bowie for jug. In the back of my mind, I knew I shouldn't have, yet too greedy to expose myself during fire sale. In the back of my mind, I knew I shouldn't have, yet too greedy to not get…

Okay so, the title says pretty much it. What do you find the most scary map you've ever played. Which map, upon playing solo and with full sound on, sketched the most horrific atmosphere for you? My personal top 3: #3: Verrückt. While the map itself I don't find that eerie myself, once you pay attention to the location's backstory, the wallwritings of a madman and the interactive screaming/banging easter eggs, this place'll give you some real creeps. #2: Blood of the Dead, while I have never played it. Merely watching the trailer and gameplay, listening to the character quotes, etc, made me feel this one has a solid, deserved place in rank 2. The…

So I've made this thread once or twice before, but people's opinions change as time goes on. I know mine has completely. List yours from 1-12, 1 being fave and 12 being least fave. 1. FIVE - First map that really got me into zombies, many hate it but I love everything about it and I've recently gotten back into playing it, definitely a specialty of mine 2. Der Riese - First zombies map I ever played, just awesome and the dogs spawning with zombies keeps things exciting 3. Ascension - Awesome layout, choice of camping or kiting, great for a chill high-round game 4. Shi No Numa - Good layout, suitable for all types of strategy and just fun to play, ano…

What do you want to see in upcoming zombie levels.. Personally, 1. Return of the Old Crew. 2. A Huge Unique Map. (Not saying tranzit is not big, but it only is if you count everything in the fog. The 5 stops are like the size of nacht or verruckt, i'm not complaining just saying. I enjoy the map but I wouldn't want the map to be the biggest just because of the areas in between the map, which are unbearable with fog, swarms of runners, and face fuckers.) 3. Return of Previous Perks. 4. Nazis. 5. A well thought out Paris Map. (Its been forever since der riese's photo of paris, I hope if its ever released its WORTHWHILE.) 6. More Grief. …

I'm no Way or Chopper, but I'm no slouch either. I have had some moments others dream of having. But sharing your proudest moments is not the path we are walking today, we are going through the wall of shame, the dumbest moments you had. What's better bonding than guys laughing at one another? Mistakes happen, but some are consequential and some are down right embarrassing. I view myself as an intelligent wise individual, but even I at times are plagued by stupid mistakes. Let's list the dumbest and most damaging mistakes. -Trading in Mustang and Sally by accident- I lost count the number of times I trade in my favorite killing weapon thinking it was CZ 75.…

Pick a song for each map that you would use to replace the existing easter egg songs. I don't mean "what songs do you listen to while playing zombies." The song has to actually fit the map's theme / concept, or be comparable in some way to the map's actual song. Maybe post links if enough people care. You don't have to do every map; Just one is fine if that's all you can think of. Verruckt - Crawling by Linkin Park Shi No Numa - Soldier Side by System of a down Der Riese - Toxicity by System of a Down Kino - Not Gonna Die by Skillet Five - Clint Eastwood by Gorillaz Ascension - Aerials by System of a Down CotD - Soldiers of the Wasteland by Dr…

We have so many zombie maps, and it seems that each map brings something new to the table, something interesting, a new staple and a favorite, or something that the players absolutely hate, and makes them turn away from that map. We all got our favorites, one way or another, so post here which ones are your best ever zombie maps, and why. I couldn't see another topic like this one, so here it goes: Here are mine 5th place-Kino der toten(call of duty:black ops) This was a mind blow to me and to many WAW veterans at the time, and the very reason i bought BO in the first(along with FIVE). It transitioned you into a familiar setting, everything from der riese was …

So this thread will be just for asking the community what their favourite map is for certain elements of a map. The categories are: -Favourite layout? -Favourite starting room? -Favourite map with the best wall weapons? -Favourite map with the best Wonder Weapon(s)? -Favourite way to access the Pack-a-Punch? -Favourite map with the best traps? -Favourite map with the best special enemy(enemies)? -Favourite way to get the Free Perk power-up? I'll start. -Favourite layout? Der Riese. I really enjoyed Nightfire's layout from WaW, so this map was already amazing. Perks were in places that made sense while still being difficult to access at times…

I don't feel like writing a long intro, so let's cut to the chase: What's your final opinion on the Black Ops 2 story? What plot elements did you like and/or not like? How could it have been better? This is just story-related things, not "They didn't put enough proper traps in" I think their main mistake was dropping the N4 so quickly. I really would have loved the final map to really set the scene for the next game, giving us a major event (set in stone, such as Richtofen's control grab) for which we could begin to really get some things happening. Instead, we were given a terrible ending. I could compare Origin's ending to a frayed rope. It has many differe…

Have you ever found something completely on your own and you were very proud of it? For me this has happened two times. On the day Buried came out our group figured out a few of the easter egg steps by ourselves(which had never done before). It was really cool, considering the fact that we've done all the easter eggs from Ascension to Origins. As for my second, it was just a week or two ago playing Origins. My friend was AFK and I had the zombie in the staff room. I was just looking at the statue faces, and I realized that they were Richtofen, Takeo, Dempsey, and Nikolai!(I realize that this was probably found out a long time ago, but I never knew about it…

So tonight (it's really pathetic but..) I finally lasted till Jug came last on Nuketown, in a game of solo. Normally, if it's not here by the 2nd drop on solo (not including QR), I give up. Or I try, but still use all of my quick revives by round 15. But for the last few days I've been really lucky on NTZ. I keep getting Jug by round 10, and getting the RG mark2. But for whatever reason I cannot beat my best on solo (r36). Tonight I was just on a roll, I was kiting like crazy, didn't get any downs till about round 14, and even then they were because I kept being sloppy, running into corners as if I had Jug. Anyway, the end of the story is that I sti…

Hi, it's the boring guy. Work sucked today. I came out of the bathroom this morning without zipping my zipper, and some cute blonde had to point in the vicinity of my wee wee. Thought she was checking out my package, but emabrassed and disappointed that she was disgusted upon seeing my package. I have been playing this game for a long time, and for a while sucked bad. I spent the first few months in the spawn room in fear of faster and stronger zombies, not knowing they naturally progress through the rounds. I took many baby steps and slowly tackled achievements along the way. I recall many of my progressions and how they contribute to the player I have becom…

Hi, it's the boring guy. It's a very basic and fairly simple concept really. Your age, maturity, career field, family status, all play a role in how well your gaming resume look. Perhaps it's just stereotype, but prove me wrong if you like. Pre-teen It's almost scientifically impossible for you to be successful. School, curfew, lack of motor skills, lack of maturity and the squeaky voice all contribute to why you suck. It's not your fault. Early Teens At this point you have developed some decent hand eye coordination from stroking your friend. If your pushy parents do not force you into extracurricular activities then you may have time for some respec…
