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.

Me as a gamer, I'm always going out to find new games. I'm never really tied down with the same games, one day it's Skyrim, then Halo. The next it's Black Ops or Left 4 Dead. I tie my gaming career with my relationship, band stuff and school. This is why I never really wanted to invest in ELITE. I as a long term zombie player, and I mean literally from the start I've invested money and time in the oh so brilliant Zombie game mode. With MW3 we saw ELITE dropping off DLC here and there for people to consume in weeks and asking for more. I for one never played MW3, I have been a Treyarch fanboy, don't ask me why, I've always favoured their games. Any ways, back to the subjec…

Right then, Been playing zombies for around 5 years now with friends most evenings. All very good player's achieving shotgun rank. Last night we decided to give tranzit another go as its been getting some bad press and at fist glance when released we thought it was OK. However..... we reached round 20 and still hadnt received a single ray gun or LMG between us out of the box that had done circles around the map.like the map isnt hard enough after scrambling through lava, fog and arguing with the bus driver about his time schedule, the wall weapons are useless past round 20. Everythings all over the place and even after 2 hours of battling were getting knowhere. And to…

I didn't really see anything mentioning this but Modern Warfare 3 said up-front that Hardened would include ELITE for a year. I didn't see anything like that with the Black Ops II Hardened Edition. I really hope I'm not gonna end up spending a lot more to get the maps on time.

I have been thinking about the layout for story in Black Ops and i personally think the entry level is too high, i mean i have never managed to complete an EE and this is because.. 1. I'm not an amazing zombie player my highest round on Kino is 35. 2. my friends don't play zombies so i have to play with randoms 3. when i tried the Call of the dead Easter egg on solo i just couldn't get the weapons i needed from the box, i tried for ages but no luck i then died and couldn't be bothered to do it all again. 4. The fact you sometimes have to start over several times, i just gave up in the end. 5. when i have gone to do the moon Easter egg and realized that i can…

Some people think that zombies is getting out of hand, with it's 'Boss zombies' And Easter Eggs, But I personally disagree. I loved the challenge of the easter eggs and the prizes you were given for your hardwork. Sure if players want simple maps like Nacht and Verruckt, they should be allowed to have that, but I think Treyarch should make a mix of a simple and a complex map in one. This doesn't make much sense so I'll go into detail lol. I mean, that maps should have decent camping areas, for the simple-loving players, and Open areas with traps and stuff for the complex-loving players. I also think that the boss zombies is a decent idea. I'm not saying there you should b…

I have some questions on this map and these questions could also be someone elses so hopefully you guys can answer. -Obviously the map is destroyed by a nuke, but is there a story behind the involvement of zombies? And if so, what is it? -What is the green slim around the map? -What do the sirens signify? -When the perks come flying down to the map, is it random or is there a pattern? -Is this map occuring around the same time as moon? I feel like it is due to the radiois -What does the population count on the billboard signifiy? -Any other secrets to this map? If you guys could answer these that would be fantastic and maybe could s…

Does anyone know why the rounds were reset on the leaderboards for a ton of random players including RelaxingEnd's round 70 solo. Any ideas of what might have happened? I thought that maybe they patched a glitch and anyone who got their record before the patch had to be reset because they (treyarch) didn't know if the round was legitimately earned or if the players glitched to get it. What are your guys' thoughts?

Does anyone know how to activate the 8-bit Pareidolia song on Nuketown Zombies? nDBb56j-YpA COD wikia says you need to shoot all the heads off the mannequins to activate the song. But ya know it's the wikia, so take that info with a grain of salt. Every time I play Nuketown Zombies, I make a point to take out every mannequin I see. However I've never been able to activate the song. Am I missing a mannequin, or is this not the activation switch? The locations of the mannequins rotates every game, just like the perk machines. So it makes me think there is something more to them than simply being destructible environmental items. The fact that the…

Speaking to Official PlayStation Magazine UK Treyarch studio head Mark Lamia has hinted at the future of Black Ops 2 zombies. I personally think it should be increased and it is! Now I can play with more friends. What do you think?

On several threads I have heard debate about which is better, aX7 or Elina siegman. Use this thread to discuss not only which past styles you've liked, but what styles you would like to hear in zombies! I personally would like to hear some more rolling stones, Aerosmith, led zeppelin type songs. As far as songs we've already seen, I love elina and Kevin. Although it wasn't my favorite song, the beginning of THE ONE was my favorite segment from the cod soundtrack. I love how it is a soft piano piece like damned. Then it busts out into the whole BANAAANAAAAA and what not. It gets me pumped. What music do you all like, and what would you like to hear on black ops 2? P.s…

This isn't game related before we get into this post, just thought I'd say. Anyway. Treyarch like to decorate specific parts of their office in theme of the game they are currently making, the part of the office where the Zombies devs work is obviously decorated in the style of Zombies. Watch the guys from Iam8bit create a Zombies experience inside of Treyarch. tycdfIwoFA0

I got thinking and started to wonder... The driver of that bus is likely dead and is being driven by some form of machinery... But then I got thinking: Dead bus driver+ vrill+ chances the bus isn't being driven by self= is it possible there will be a new boss driving around in a bus deliberately trying to kill us? Such as a boss zombie. But less of a boss zombie but more of a "slenderman" type thing where if the bus see's you it will go biserk and try and run you over, or make all the zombies hyper? I could see something like that... Plus how creepy would it be if the bus was there behind you then all of a sudden you all go get jug and come back to find the bus has …

Alright so we all know about trayarch's release of the mini-dlc for nuketown and the cameos recently, and I got thinking: Why don't they do this for more zombies maps? Think about it: Trayarch could assign a special team specifically designed to take the previous map from the previous dlc (In nuketown's case it would be the origional game) and make a Grief, Turnned, or Survival map(s) for it two months later! So in case of die rise here's what would happen: We get nuketown released for everyone, then we get the second dlc, but THEN we get another MINI-DLC drop! But instead of nuketown zombies this time we get: A Greif/Survival/ Turrned map for die rise! …

Hey guys, this is only my first post on the site but I've always been interested in the zombies storyline since World at War so I like to think I have a good idea of whats going on. Anyway, on topic, with zombies moving to an 8 player mode in Black Ops 2 there is the obvious need to add 4 more characters to aid our usual heroes. A lot of people feel we will join forces with the characters of Five, COTD, or even 4 entirely new characters. However, I believe that the 4 characters we will fight with in Black Ops 2 are none other than Dempsey, Nikolai, Takeo and Richtofen. While this might sound a bit out there at first it makes a lot of sense with a bit of explaini…

Well this is pretty damn good, the other day my friend and i did the COFTD co-op easter egg, yay bla bla, then we were thinking who to do with the shangri la easter egg.... we needed it so we could finally do the moon easter egg, i told him hey lets play moon... i spawn as Rictoffen and i see the golden rod there :OO i was like omg . Basically what this means you can do the moon easter egg without having the shangri la trophy, all you need is the co-op COFTD trophy, (ps3 btw) well thats it, great news a little bit easier now for those who dont have to do the painfull shangri la easter egg (like me). did any of you already now this/was aware of?

Hello everyone! So I was trying to answer the question: Who created the Perk Machines? No one knows apparently unless your hiding out there. So here goes. Everyone knows that the perk machines enhance your abilities, even though some may not pertain to real life. They come in a liquid form. Perhaps they could have been administered to the German Army (Shutzstaffel and Wehrmacht, Luftwaffe, etc.) through a single injection. Because we all know that there really is no point in drinking the whole bottle. One sip and your enhanced right? So to save material, money, and make the most out of it, the German army would have used it in a vaccinated form, a…

This is a FFA (Free For All for those living under a rock) in a zombie setting. Objective: I haven't EXACTLY figured one out. Simple Objective: There are 4 people playing, after a certain number of rounds, or time, or when everybody acquires enough points; three Monkeys (if there are 4 players, 2 for three, 1 for two, not a single played game mode) spawn randomly, they drop from the sky, whatever. 3\4 people can acquire a monkey. It might be better if there is just one Monkey no matter how many players. If you acquire a or the monkey, you throw it at another player, which in turn, sticks to them causing all the zombies to go for that or those player(s.) The zombies w…

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 …
