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.

I've been thinking recently about both Origins and Mob of the Dead and the popularity of these maps. Both maps have a very distinct and different playstyle compared to other maps. Based on the praise received from the maps, we can expect to see more of them in Black Ops 3:Ghouls (Working title). Does this mean we're slowly drifting away from the more "Traditional" style of maps? I personally think we can have the best of both worlds in the next game. Sometimes I'm in the mood for a quickie match without an intricate 20-step Side Quest to Pack a Punch. Other times I want to have a fun challenge with the spare time on my hands. What's your view on this?

Hello there CoDz and Zombies faithfuls. I come to you today to pose a question. Have any of you considered that we may not get a Zombies trailer for Black Ops Two? We didn't get one for Black Ops (albeit it cam very late, but we still never got it before game release), and to be honest apart from the odd very minor hint at Zombies news (not once a trailer though) I have yet to see any 'confirmation' that we will see a trailer whatsoever. I do not believe we will see a trailer for Black Ops Two Zombies. So now, what next? Well, now I invite you all to post as much as you can trying to prove me wrong and change my pessimistic views. Seriously, go nuts, give me reason t…

Curious to know how many here are actually CoD fans outside the realm of Zombies. I often see people saying, "only getting BO2 for the Zombies" and stuff like that. I would consider myself a minor CoD fan outside of Zombies. CoD multiplayer is usually fairly fun and definitely addicting, but from a critical perspective it's nothing spectacular, and the formula has definitely gotten stale over the years. And the campaigns, let's face it, they're not much other than mediocre side dishes, although I'll admit BO had an interesting story. So how bout you? Are you a CoD fan outside of Zombies, and why or why not? And if yes, how big of a fan would you consider yourse…

It has been beautiful here in PA. I go for a quick drive in the sunny 70s everyday before heading to work. Heading to the beach next month but still unsure whether to go Virginia Beach or Myrtle Beach. Opinions on the topic would be nice. Had a game yesterday with three randoms on verruckt. One guy clearly had the best resume at 38 rounds and 1000+ kills. But even with his mike on he did not assume leadership or try to organize the team. We ended up dying at 17 when one guy goes down near jug. I was alone near Thompson and went down trying to revive him. The top guy and the third random went opposite directions en route to revive us from the STG. The third r…

You know, I get it. When someone gets downed WAAAAAY across the map, and it's round 25, you just can't go get them. I get that. BUT.......when they are downed right in front of you.....on round 5......nobody is around......hmm, just teabag them!! I MEAN WTF?!!! That just happened to me and I really didn't think that happens I really should have got the guy back but I didn't think about it and just quit. All I can do is just say "unsporting" in the player review. As for my question, I'm kinda both. I go out on my own, but the first time someone goes down, me and my "Awful Lawton", "Monkey Bombs", "ThunderGun", etc will be the first to be there! I also like doing …

Time has passed and I want to make another poll and see if peoples opinions have changed. Previous results few weeks after BOII was released: The maps are better than Black Ops and W@W's. 14% The maps are on par with the ones in BO and W@W. 14% The maps aren't quite as good as previous maps. 32% The maps are disappointing. 39% The maps are just horrible. 2% Conclusion: 73% thought the maps were not as good as previous maps. Only 14% thought the maps were better than previous ones. Total of votes: 44 So what you think about the stock survival maps in Black Ops II (No Nuketown)?

Sorry if this was done before, but I was poking around the "Future Zombies" board, and I noticed a handful of comments that claimed that Zombies had taken a turn for the worse with Black Ops II. Is that the majority opinion? I've enjoyed every map in Black Ops II, even TranZit. Even Nuketown. I like how different all of them are from each other. And I also play with some friends typically, so I don't have to put up with glitchers and stuff like that. But I understand that I am typically easily pleased. What do you guys think? How has Black Ops 2 Zombies treated you? You can either vote, or give me an argument for or against, whatever. I was just trying to g…

Niik (strwrsbob) said that tryarch confirmed this as a mistake. But how can you make a mistake this big? If you do make this mistake why was it never removed? Also here is another picture that looks as if you are looking at another galaxy. Real galaxy picture. None of these things were here before we blew up "earth" was area 51 moved? Was it ever on earth in the first place? It must of have been moved because you cannot see these things before the rockets hit. But how would this large area be untouched? How can everything stay in exact same place and be breathable if it was in fact moved? If the earth view from area 51 was a mistake the…

Every level so far has involved armageddon, destructive enviornment due to the missles from the moon or the nuke in nuke town... So thats three destroyed levels we've had all similar to each other... Are we getting three more in the same nature?!?!? If you look back at black ops or WaW you got 6 zombie levels all unlike each other... But so far in black ops 2 we've had 3 zombie levels that are all similar to the environment... I think it would be a little ridiculous if thats all we have to look forward to in the dlc's ...3 more of the same... Destroyed Environment from the moon missles.... Just a thought :/

Currently almost everybody is saying that Ascension happens after Kino and before Cotd. Now i don't understand this. Here is my reasons. The most logical way out of Kino is teleporting. You don't start Ascension being teleported, you start on a lander. All of the characters look diffrent. However they look the same way in Kino and Cotd. Red eyes before they removed the moon on Ascension and changed the menu screen the characters had red zombie eyes. In the radios Yuri says he see Sam, If she was in the pyramid how could he have seen here? Last and this is the biggest one. Takeo says he wants to kill Richtofen for what he has done. He says something similar at the …

Something I noticed. In the Co-op mode of Zombies, all of the maps are written just like they should. Kino Der Toten, Dead Ops Arcade, Call of the Dead, etc. But there are two strange things I noticed. Ascension and Five are different. They're both in all caps. None of the others are. Could this mean something? To see what I'm talking about, go to where you pick a map to search for people and under the picture should be a description that says "Zombie co-op mode in _______." What y'all think. They are connected in a way with the characters on the phone.

so i was playing ascension and in the upper floor of the spawn room there are crates tha have the same cccp symbol as the crates in the pap room in green run. just putting it out there as i doubt it was re-using textures. or maybe they brought monkeys over from russia to green run and tried to experiment with them in the cages and they became denizens

I'm starting this thread because it is a debate that is interrupting some nice theory-building on another thread. So, those of you who still want to argue who the man on the Ascension poster is, have at it! EDIT: As per request, there's now a poll. To be honest, I'm a bit undecided about this topic myself....

I've decided to compile all of my theories into one thread. Let's start with the first one. 1: Ascension takes place after the map "moon" Firstly we know that five is happening at the same time as ascension. Well in Five you see four leaders discussing what? A missile crisis. To be more specific, the cuban missile crisis. Is it not possible that the missiles launched in the moon easter egg is what caused this meeting. No where in the cutscene does anyone accuse castro of anything. Also, it seems a bit odd that Richtofen is wearing a space suit for this map, and then the next map back to his normal clothes. I believe that Richtofen, some time between moon an…

I have been thinking about this for quite a long time now and how the zombie storyline could possibly relate to such. We all know that the storyline revolves around dimensions of different realms based on teleportation and the like. Well, what if all of this has a sense of astral projection from Samantha. Mind you, I have not done the Origins easter egg, but from what I've heard, she was in a dream-like state. There have been things said in Origins to make me think that I may have something here…. Nikolai mentions about "grabbing a gun from the air" when he gets the MP40. I don't want to delve too much into it without a little feedback from you guys for a fear that it wil…

What is up CoDzers, this is Dark Jolteon with a new theory, that hopefully will rival some of my older, better theories The theory I bring you today is based around the fact that we have seen images of the new Zombie map (albeit very early development)and it looks like at least one of the maps we will se on BOII will be set in some sort of town, in what looks to be a very open map where exploring the town seems to be a valid option. I am going to discuss why I think this town is a good place for a Zombie map, how it could link to Zombies, and what being there will entail. As you have probably guessed, my theory suggests that this town is Athens, Ohio. HIST…

Hey Guys, there have been a multitude of threads on here regarding the ranking system. I thought I would start a new thread to post my personal ideas on how you can improve this system. 1 - weekly, monthly and lifetime stats. This should be fairly easy as it's already been in MP for what, 3 games now. 2 - statistics per gun. You can't get headshots realistically with ray gun, sallies or the war machine. If I play first room challenges, my headshots are close to 90%. If I do a high run attempt, my headshots are close to 0%. These are in MP already, and should be easy enough to implement.

Hey guys, let's hope you can hear me on this. So you patched BO2, but it seems you kinda over reacted and have once again ruined your best map yet, Die Rise. The liquid gun was perfect....your shoddy programming allowed it to be abused, but it didn't make the gun overpowered. It was clearly always designed to allow chains, hence the blue stuff moving between zombies. The thing is chains were incredibly difficult to manage, yet this is what made the map so much fun. It's also what took away from the overpoweredness....you had to really know what you were doing to actually use it to it's full effect. It meant you could get to high rounds relatively quickly, wi…

Way with your recent epic run on Ascension I think you hold some information which could be valuable to other CODZers, namely the amount of time it took to get to key rounds. Anyway you can provide time taken to say get to 50, then 70, then 80, 85, 90, 95 and 100? I really want to do a 100 run but the time is putting me off massively. I'm limited to 2-4 hours per day maximum, and I've noticed a lot of local lag recently on my Black Ops. I suspect my PS3 is coming near to end of life. This may be a good way to send it to retirement.

Hi I've been having a problem frequently on zombies (and occasionally multiplayer) where all the audio is replaced with this annoying beeping (I'm not too sure how to describe it) and the only fix is to go onto another menu like campaign or multiplayer and then return. Obviously having no audio is a real problem and I wondered if anyone else was having this problem, and if there was any easy fix? I'm a PS3 user, if that helps. Thanks
