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.

So with the release of Buried I see now what I must have been blind to miss before. In Buried, once all the easter eggs are completed for Maxis and you activate the box he gains control of the Aether. Here's a video if you haven't seen it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fI9R3yP_L0s In it Maxis talks about Argatha. Who else mentions Argatha? Brock from Shangri-La. Now think back to Moon. In the audio logs Richtofen is teleported to the moon and then where? Shangri-La. So when Richtofen teleports Maxis and Sam in Der Reise, Sam gets sent to Griffin Station and Maxis gets sent to what he describes as a "tunnel" when he's teleported to Griffin Station by Gro…

Maxis: A name that makes Richtofen's skin CRAWL! Up till now it has been presumed that the nukes that destroyed the earth were COMPLETELY Revolved around putting some sort of power-restraint on richtofen... But now with the completion of the easter eggs in BO2, I can see maxis couldn't care less about Richtofen.... Lets start at moon, richtofen arrives and begins the cryogenic slumber party achievement that unlocks the maxis AI from the MPD's computer system.... This AI has one purpose: To ensure the survival of his daughter... SO! Without any regret he blows up the earth, not to stop richtofen but because he KNOWS that Samantha will end up in Argotha in t…

Is most likely the cannonical side. As in, the ending of Buried's easter egg when done with Maxis' conditions is the direction the Zombie storyline is probably going to follow. At the end of Buried's easter egg, if you completed all three (Tranzit, Die Rise and Buried) easter eggs following Richtofen's orders, you are allowed to hit the button in the courthouse. If this is done, Richtofen crows over his victory. He is now in complete power over the Aether, can enter any human to control their body at will, and he banishes Maxis... Maxis ceases to be. From that point on, the world is Richtofen's playground. That's it... basically. However, if you do things Maxi…

Just got done listening to the Moon quotes, and happened upon quotes from Maxis on the computer in Griffin Station. It doesn't look like CJ uploaded these quotes. At the end of the video, there is one quote that is unused from the Big Bang Theory achievement, which occurs after Earth has been hit by the bombs. To quote Maxis: "Well , that was a much larger explosion than I anticipated. I have done all I can. I simply hope those calculations were correct." iDl1IScEYgU Maxis' intentions were never to completely blow up the Earth, but to target precise coordinates that will stop the zombie outbreak, but not wipe out man completely. As Maxis said, h…

Maxis, returned_tranzit & Black Ops III - The Future of Zombies - TranZit. The map you either love or hate. The map of first impressions and last words. A map which divided the community in a way rivalled only by that of the climactic end of the Black Ops 2 DLC season. But what is really behind this map, and, as Malukah once sung, "Where are we going from here?" Maxis' Cut Quotes Maxis had some quotes from TranZit that never made it into the final game. There are two of these such quotes in this game which are very intriguing, vox_maxi_future_dlc_0 & vox_maxi_future_nav_0. These quotes have had no way to be triggered to our knowledge... People …

Now before anyone has anything to say about maxis being Samantha's dad, I'm just saying YES the maxis in the aether who talks to you on moon, was almost assassinated by richtofen, and leader of 935 is in fact, sam's dad... HOWEVER, if you've seen the latest twitter pic: You'll see a gun built by Dr. Maxis supposedly built in the 1910s yes? I dont think THAT maxis is the maxis we know, I think that may be Dr. maxis's FATHER! A SECOND doctor maxis, as they would go by the same name.... And the grandfather maxis (lets call him grandfather maxis) would have been around to create the gun if it was built in the 1910s, as maxis likely wasn't born yet given …

A few days ago I posed a question to the CoDz Community: Is there someone behind the scenes that is controlling everything that we do not know? And if there is, what are their intentions? Today, I will lay out evidence indicating that this mystery man is none other than Dr. Maxis himself. Dr. Maxis is a very shady figure that no one knows a lot about. His intentions seem to be better than Richtofen's but we cannot be sure of that until the time comes. But there are many things that stand out to show that Maxis is not an innocent scientist who is trying "to save mankind" as he states in a message. With this post, I suggest that Dr. Maxis is a very evil man with …

This theory came to me in a moment where the stars aligned, the sun shone bright and the gods felt good. What I am about to bring you today could shatter your understanding of everything you ever thought you knew about the storyline and our main story characters (Samantha, Richtofen & Maxis, the Trinity of Zombies). Maxis. A man who is crucial in our story. We've always thought we knew who Maxis was, but I am here today to share with you what Origins' ending brought us story wise, and how it all ties into the game we all know and love. I will divide this into three pieces: Part A, which is mainly theory with no evidence, the other two parts are just the continuat…

Good day to you all. My name is Naitrax, and I've come here today to tell you the dark truth behind one of Zombies' most shadowy and secretive characters, Ludvig Maxis. I'm just going to flat out say what this theory contains so you can decide whether to stick around or not. TranZit took place very soon after Moon. Maxis is the being "far more terrible" than Richtofen Now, I know you're all thinking to yourselves "Whaaaaaaaaaaaaat?!" "But Nai, Maxis says in TranZit that he's been searching for decades for someone to help him." is probably what someone is thinking now. If not, now you are. Well, this is true. But how, you ask? What I am here to explain is t…

With the releae of Buried, our mysterious 'friend' Doctor Maxis has finally shed some light on his plans to the group. As you spawn in Buried, Maxis will once again greet you by saying: "Attention my [?] friends, our journey reaches ever closer to it's conclusion. With your help, we will heal the earth [...]" Now this is very important, because it's the exact same thing Richtofen said in TranZit after completing the EE. "[...] Soon this beautiful planet will be healed once more" So with both Maxis and Richtofen basicly promising the exact same thing, who do you think is actually telling the truth?

Now I'm not too sure, but on Fred tatasciore's twitter he has this photo : http://twitter.com/fred_tatasciore/stat ... 33/photo/1 I'm not too sure if the link works, I'm using my iPhone right now. But if it doesn't work, go on his twitter and it's the second to last photo. Now, the description says black ops 2 zombies. And it's a map I've never seen before. The colt looks like bo2, but the weird thing is, the hands look like takeo's. like the sleeve part on his wrists. If you didn't know, Fred tatasciore is the voice of Nikolai. Can anyone clear this up maybe?

I believe that it is in relation to the http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Green_Run experiment. These took place at the http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hanford_Site that is located in Washington, on the Columbia Gorge River. The experiment dealt with plutonium and uranium, and also Iodine-131 and Xenon-133. I don't think that the map itself correlates to this, or even any form of radioactive materials. I believe that it is saying that the map or the events of the Easter Egg are considered to be similar to the Green Run, but with the things used substituted for zombies-related things. Don't know how, as I cannot think very well right now, but I am sure some of you can figure it ou…

The is what is said on the last page of Komisch Der Untoten (What I believe Black Ops Zombie names should be referred to as). I believe that our now friendly Samantha will take the team back on themselves and reveal to them their own pasts, whilst Richtofen is out to stop them. I think Samantha will try to prove to the other what Richtofen is like, and get them to remember who they each really are. Also, as one last thing. I was reading someone else's thread about the Moon earlier and how it seemed to be different sizes on each map. After reading this, I noticed how in bad conditions each of the maps really seem to be. Could some of the maps be set after the nu…

As we all remember, Der Reise's translation is The Journey. For a long time, we've been on a long journey, seeing places as creepy as a Nazi brain washing theater, as frigid as Siberia, and as high as the Moon can take you. But for a long time, we haven't know where this journey would take us. I believe I may have found where our journey will be leading us to. And that place is Mecca. Mecca is the religious center of the Islamic faith. This is the place where Muhammad was born and where the Quran was revealed to him. This is the holy city of Islam. Every year, Muslims take a pilgrimage to Mecca to worship Allah at the Grand Mosque. A pilgrimage, as many know,…

This is my first thread like this for a while, so forgive me if I'm a little rusty WARNING! HUGE WALL OF TEXT APPROACHING! ONLY PROCEED IF PREPARED FOR OVERLOAD OF INFORMATION BACKGROUND Mel's Hole is a supposed geographic anomaly discovered by Mel Waters on his land near Ellensburg, Washington.

Ok, so, we all have an introduction story for Zombies I'd assume. Some are more boring than others, some are more adventurous than others as well. Me personally, I'd say I fall in the middle when it comes to a good introduction story. It wasn't exactly boring, but it wasn't too adventurous either. Regardless, that is besides the point. The point is that through this story I'm about to tell ya, I met some wild ass people and had a ball of a time following the story and being a part of the community. This, is how I became introduced to Zombies. If my memory serves me right, it was April 5th of 2009. Soon after the release of DLC Pack 1 which was March 19th 2009.…

I can't believe I didn't remember this when I first heard it but after analyzing the Die Rise cut scene for a while to try and find some things to post about I've finally made a possible link between Die Rise and Der Riese/Kino. Note: A big thankyou goes to Shooter for compiling the storyline into one easily accessible thread which you can find here: viewtopic.php?f=100&t=28818 I believe the next level may be an updated version of Kino, trying to trace the O4's footsteps in reverse order back to Der Reise, here's why: Shortly after Richtofen takes the group back to Der Riese they end up fighting hordes of zombies as per usual, and upon leaving Richtofen…

Ok, first off, if someone is a quitter than they are a quitter and there is nothing you can do about it and your game is going to be ruined. Sorry. However, there is something you can do to help increase the chance that your game will not be ruined by someone quitting if you do one thing. Pay attention to what color the dead players are going to spawn on and then have that player be in the right place when the next round starts. Here is a common scenario: It's round 24, you are doing great, fewest downs, most points. But two of your teammates have been dying at the beginning of the last 2 rounds and are just quietly watching you play the game because they …
