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 I think that I have come up with a possible theory for shagri la location. First I noticed that on moons load screen there is an object floating through space. Many assumed it was a satellite but if u look closely its actually a temple from shangri la! Also on the moon load screen there is a stone/rock temple with 4 astronauts walking from it. I believe this is the heroes coming out from the temple. So this means that shangri la teleports through space to 3 locations moon mars and earth. This would then explain the red mountains because on the map in present time the heroes are on mars but when the eclipse happens they go back to a time when shangri la was on earth thi…

Got something that goes in a slightly different direction for you guys. "Shangri-La is often used in a similar context to "Garden of Eden", to represent a paradise hidden from modern man. It is sometimes used as an analogy for a lifelong quest or something elusive that is much sought. For a man who spends his life obsessively looking for a cure to a disease, such a cure could be said to be that man's "Shangri-La". It also might be used to represent perfection that is sought by man in the form of love, happiness, or Utopian ideals. It may be used in this context alongside other mythical and famous examples of somewhat similar metaphors such as The Holy Grail, El Dorad…

Hey everyone in new here but not to COD zombies. I have just recently come across this. Some people say that it looks like snow one the ground in the DICE pics. What do you think? Thanks. Peace -Tek Reportedly, German Navy Grand Admiral Karl Dönitz stated in 1943: The German submarine fleet is proud of having built for the Führer in another part of the world a Shangri-La on land, an impregnable fortress.

Y'all should really check out Twitter with Jimmy, Reza, and Flyinhaggis. They're hinting at something.

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 Codz, we all know of the shriveled zombies in Shangri-La, the ones with the thin, spindly arms and oddly shaped heads and faces? I have a thought. Allow me to explain. I was on the wierd side of Youtube and found this video. She has progeria. An extremelly rare genetic condition that causes people to look extremely old from a young age, and strangely familiar. However, this disease is extremelly rare, and hardly any sufferers live to be 20. Before I learned the above 2 facts, I thought that these zombies may have progeria, but now, it may have simply been inspiration for Treyarch's design. Do you guys think there could be a connec…

In shangri-la a lot of strange patterns and symbols can be seen, on weapons, doors, walls, dials, gongs, tiles, but what do they all mean All illuminate was translated using this code 1. Illuminate code on the gong and doors it says "beware the wrath of the dragons fire". Now to me this makes no sense and apparently the "dragon like" figures in shangri-la are actually serpents so I can't quite make sense of them you can see some illuminate lettering around the edge of the door but i cant get a decent pic of the gong 2. The tiles on the wall and ground during the EE a seemingly random selection of illuminate letters, this has been disc…

Hey CoDz forum, I was just thinking since zombies are getting so popular, And with the walking dead do you think they would add some of the character from the show? i think it would gather more people to play BlackOps II. That are fans of the walking dead and I personally think it would be amazing to play as Rick Grimes or Daryl Dixon just a concept let me know what you think or what character you want. :D

G'day, everyone- i got an idea for a sort-of-minigame on Shi No Numa. It could really only be done on PC, as noclipping and point-hacking would be required. Also, 4 people must play. So basically, everyone hacks 5000 points for themselves, then noclips out to a hut door. Open the door, then buy the weapon and the perk that spawns in the hut. From here, see who survives the longest! So really, it all comes down to what weapon+perk combo you get. If you get the MP40 and quick revive, say goodbye by round 10. But if you get the STG with Double Tap, you could make it pretty far. No ziplining would be permitted, nor would entering the main building. You can however, leave the …

*We're coming up on the four year anniversary of this thread (had to repost on new forum) so I've revamped it with new Der Eisendrache information, please read until end as much of the beginning is slightly incorrect now* Shi No Numa and Takeo: The Entwined History In World War II, there was a biological weapons research and human experimentation team known as Unit 731, and they had many compounds. One of the compounds was in the very southern parts of Pingfang, Manchuria, where their excuse for the facility's existence was that it was a lumber mill, so they had logs and wood everywhere. Rumor from around the compound is that they referred to their human…

Hi, it's the boring guy. I have been cursed. Everytime I take a major step forward, I somehow find a way to stumble and take a few steps back. Been playing Origins lately, and think I finally burst the bubble. Had a great game the other night, going flawless for 32 rounds. More importantly, I think I may have found a working strategy camping by Gen 4. It worked beautifully and safely until I carelessly get trapped after taking a nuke. No biggie, I'm a big shot now, I could easily get further. Surprisingly, in the next few games I never even sniffed round 10, dying mostly in the first 5. Last month I really wanted to do well on Der Riese. I finally be…

There are 4 ways to the mystery box. The one everyone knows with the slide from the restaurant under the svu, and three different ways from the other door. 2 of those 3 ways require a little bit of skill when jumping and may not be the best way to do it. This way that I'm about to show you is the most reliable if you have a trample steam because the trample steam for some reason will not be attacked so you can leave it there if you are training by the box in the area with the hole in the wall and need ammo for a pack a punched m16 or some other reason.

It seems many people are trying to figure out what exact kind of shotgun the woman (samantha) is holding in the poster. Why people want to know the exact shotgun, I don't know but here it is. It is a Remington. The stock in the picture is closest to a remington.

I don't believe anyone would disagree with me saying that Shotguns and Zombies go well together. I do believe though that for CoD: Zombies, the scoring for shotguns is slightly biased. Shotguns are low ammunition weapons with high kill potential. The problem here is the point system. Shotguns just cannot compete with other weapons when it comes to scoring points. My proposal: Shotguns earn points per pellets hit, x2 points for a body kill, and x2 for a headshot kill. Numbers can obviously be tweaked Agree? Disagree?

So I use to be an avid user on this site and I use to play a TON of zombies. However, a few months back my PS3 stopped reading discs, and I don't really want to buy a new one because the only game I ever play is zombies. All other games I play now are PC games. On that note though, I don't really want to buy a game that I already own. Since I last used this site, it has been updated such that WaW custom maps is the top forum. I don't have any friends that still play zombies, nor do I have any friends who play PC games. So my question is, do people still play WaW zombies online? Could I just find a public match? And how does this work for custom maps? I want to pla…

I already have the season pass for PS3, because I didn't know that I'd be getting an Xbox. So now, I have to wait a month to play Die Rise. I wanna play this map, but I don't know if I should wait until it gets to PS3, or not. BTW, I like trains. Is this a rape train map? Is this better than Tranzit?

Hi Everyone, So I've seen a few people mentioning zombie AI in some posts and it seems like a very interesting and polarizing subject. So interesting I thought it deserved it's very own topic! (That being said sorry if there is already a topic on this, I searched but couldn't find one). There are surely people that think zombies are too hard, too easy, or everywhere in between! Would you like to see training disappear? Would you like a completely new way to play the game? Or would like the game to stay the same? Perhaps even get easier in the next installment? Personally I would like to see AI improvements to make the game harder. However, I don't think any…

There is nothing worse when you have a good thing going and a player gets downed/dies ,only to quit like a little baby because he lost his perks or weapons, despite the teams good strategy and attempts to revive him and in some cases despite the money to get set up next round. For this I think there should be a lengthy timeout or even a day ban, thats how much i hate it. For players who genuinely need to go out or do something important in their house/whatever there should be a ban report for every game where someone left, for example a player tells the team he needs to go, when he prematurely leaves after the match the other players can say if he left unlawful…

I recently Have bought it due to Playing mw3 and Thinking that this will probably have to do something with Blops 2 maps also. So do you think they will add a Zombies Section? For like Strategy, story lines, easter eggs, challenges, etc.? I think that it would be pretty cool. Also Elite is free but if you Pay monthly you get the maps earlier.

I have been thinking about the story a bit and started wondering how Treyarch could translate the storyline to a movie, something many people here in CoDz want. But these individuals overlook what the funnest part about the story is: discovering it. How could Treyarch make a movie that covers the storyline well enough, with enough easter eggs for the zombie fans yet revealing enough so it can be entertaining to regular movie-watchers? In my experience, when you don't know the story to a movie, then it becomes more entertaining as you find out things for the first time as the movie goes, but when you know the backstory it just doesn't feel as good, because you kn…

We have come a long way since world at war. What started off as a simple Game mode about Nazi's that happened to be undead.....turned into a story about a scientific Experiment gone wrong.....from there it turned into a story about betrayal and vengeance. Adding new conspiracies and secrets for the players to find out and connect the dots. Eventually we discovered Samantha in the MPD and set her free, leaving richtofen in charge of the Undead....However things started taking a change for the worse with black ops 2.....We began a new set of quests that either had us completing the same tasks over and over again or in some cases those quests had nothing to do with the story…
