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 and a friend were playing yesterday in public and after the other two people dropped out we had a very unusual glitch. We couldn't pack-a-punch or buy perks. It said "You must turn the power on". Now the perk machines were lit up and had their little jingle playing as did the pap machine but we couldn't use them. This ended up lasting the rest of the game, the last randumb left at round 11 where it glitched and we failed at 28. What causes this to happen because this isn't the first time we've had it happen, although it is the first time we've had it happen for that long of a period. Before it would only be the pap machine and only last like two rounds but th…

This is a bit of a rant, but is anyone else tired of playing with randoms and while you enter the game as Misty, they constantly get in your face and start making lewd comments about boobs and feckles? Can these pubescent teenagers just stop ogling the digital cleavage and making comments?! I'm gonna go off on the next one and report them, I promise! :evil: :evil: :cry: I guess I can totally understand where a pretty woman comes from after this crap... :oops:

Does anyone know when Nuketown Zombies will be available for Black Ops 2 Season Pass buyers? I had heard December but not a specific date. How will it become available, as a 'free' download in the Marketplace, or will we be sent a download code somehow? On a side note, given the amount of secrets and storyline info in Nuketown Zombies, shouldn't it have its own forum here, like Tranzit, Moon, Der Riese, and other specific maps have?

Is there a way to get on the leaderboards when playing solo? Like making a guest account and leaving when the game starts? Just curious.

Hello everybody! xMaTrIxSh0tZx here and today i've decided to bring to you the FASTEST solo strategies for every single zombie map on Call of Duty Black Ops! So, let's get started. KINO DER TOTEN Okay so the first map we have is Kino Der Toten, probably most peoples favourite map on Black Ops. So I had a lot of trouble deciding on which strategy was faster, KINGJAQ's Insta - Trap strategy, or Superhands MP40 room strategy. In the end I decided the Insta - Trap strategy because you will not have to recycle the Thundergun as often, therefore taking less time. So if you wanted to get to, let's say round 100 it would take less time because of that fact…

[tab][/tab]Hello Ladies and Gentlemen and Jay, as I'm sure most of you are aware we as zombies players follow a basic set of rules that have been passed down through the ages or for five years at least. I thought that I would utilize the great minds in the forum to transcribe the rules in to a neat list, or ten zomb commandments if you will. So please leave your suggestions and call out if you think a fellow member has a good idea. I'll kick it off with a few of my own.(These are not finalized, just getting things stared.) Thou shalt not covet thy teammate's window, nor their kills, nor any thing that is thy teammate's. Thou shalt not take more than one turn one the…

I created this thread because I'm curious for your ideas about potential/made-up maps. As @RadZakpak once noted zombie maps are often merely a glimp of the entire location: Shangri-la taking place in just a small part of the entire temple complex, Tranzit taking place mostly on the surface of a huge underground tunnel-connected facility, Zetsubou laying on top of R'yeh, an enormous abandoned demonic Atlantis, etc. This way, the players can let their imagination go and theorize and discuss about what may lay ahead, out of the map's boundaries. Anyway, here are some concepts about maps I know Rad and Hunter talked about a couple of months back: …

Hello everyone, Ehjookayted AKA EyeCntSpel here to bring you my most in-depth and probably most helpful guide yet. In here, I will discuss the various things required to become a great zombies player not only in solo, but also in Multiplayer. I will talk about the various tips to stay alive, including tips that can get you to 40 every time you pick up a controller and load up solo as well as the best tips for breezing through to 30 in co-op. Map by map strategies are not provided in detail but they should apply to every map and will be judged. I make these guides for you, using what I know from my many days of playing, compiling it all together to increase the power…

Hello all, my name is Ehjookayted AKA EyeCntSpel, for those of who don't know. I write zombies guides for CODZ, but I also like to work on the occasional project for the community. I'm sure you have read my Call to Arms and The Last Days on here. Zombies may have lost some of it's flavor. In order to spice it up, it's time for a leaderboard with rewards and challenges. My friends way2g00 and ChopperNator have expressed solo interest. There was a previous thread concerning leaderboards as motivation. Sadly, it got locked. If we want to ensure that our friends here continue to strive for a challenge. Here's the deal. The good nature of the challenge can be just …

I personally believe that there should be a leveling up system in the next black ops game but i want it to differ with each game type. With endless mode i think it would be awesome if you could level up, but being a level 50 gives you no advantages over someone who is a level 1, but leveling up and completing challenges unlocked titles and/or emblems. If there is a campaign for zombies i hope for it to play similar to normal black ops campaign, so obviously no leveling up If there is some type of zombie multiplayer (something like the normal multiplayer in codbo) then i would hope for some kind of level up system that you do get and advantage if your leve…

The Black Ops Facebook page has started a new series called "Zombies Maps 101" where they look back at every zombie map. http://www.facebook.com/codblackops Edit: I'm starting to think these maps will be in Black Ops 2. The newest image of Shi No Numa looks much more polished and bright. Looks nothing like WaW or Black Ops. *Newest* Shi No Numa ""How many zombies have you introduced to the Flogger?" Nacht Der Untoten. "Everyone eventually needs a little "help." Verrückt: "Cryptic messages... or just the ramblings of the insane?" Der Riese: "The shortest path between two points isn’t a straight line… it’s an MDT."

Oliver North is rumored to play some role in Black Ops 2 but who is he? Here is a brief summary of North's notable features from Wikipedia: Oliver Laurence North (born October 7, 1943) is a former Marine Corps officer, political commentator, host of War Stories with Oliver North on Fox News Channel, a military historian, a New York Times best-selling author, and a convicted felon. His felonies were reversed on a technicality with the help of the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU). North was at the center of national attention during the Iran-Contra affair, a political scandal of the late 1980s. North was a National Security Council staff member involved…

We're all big fans of the music from WAW and Blops 1, eligna was the BEST! But... We need her back.. FAST! However this isn't a likely possibility, as the only way to have an eligna Sigman song is to have SAMANTHIA's thoughts present, meaning we would need to see the return of Sam! But this isn't likely due to the fact she, Nikolai, Tank, and Takeo haven't been heard of sense moon... For those who don't know all eligna's Songs reflect samanthia's feelings to some extent.. Now that samanthia is missing, so is Sigman! The only other character to have a musical group counterpart is Richtofen! His thoughts and feelings are reflected by avenged sevenfold's music...…

A couple years ago (wow...it's been that long...), Jimmy Z tweeted out a mysterious tweet: "Shangri-la Mountains". This sent CoDz into a frenzy as other devs commented to the tweet with things like "Best easter egg yet" "No one even knows" and such. As we searched, Tac came to truly believe that Shangri-la was, in fact, on Mars. I didn't believe it. It made no sense. How could Shangri-la get to Mars in the first place. It's a barren wasteland. There's no source of water for the waterfall. There are radios from people who were at Shangri-la (Brock and Gary) that could not have been from Mars. Nope. It can't be on Mars. But after that, it seemed as though…

Hello all. I am here to have a rant. Lets begin 4 years ago in World at war. I was a young boy only about 11 and playing zombies happily , not perticularly good at it but enjoying it for what it was. A fun game mode. I had many people of whom frequently added me as a friend and we played often. I slowly got better as did they and we had fun getting to the high rounds because we helped each other out and there was a real sense of brotherhood. Unfortunately when MW2 came along we played zombies less and less and we all ended up deleting each other. Now black ops 1 came along and I realised that people were now less friendly and more concerned about getting to a …
