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.

First and foremost, I would like to thank julpr, for allowing me to create a theory thread based on his findings. If it weren't for his findings, I would have never completed this theory. Original thread where julpr mentions the resemblance of Hans Kammler; viewtopic.php?f=53&t=22995 General Doctor of Engineering Hans Kammler General Back-story: General Hans Kammler would seem to be nothing more than a part of the SS, with the title of Doctor of Engineering. Now, along with his somewhat mediocre backstory, there has been much controversy as towards conspiracies, and his involvement in creating Nazi Superweapons (Wunder Waffen). Now as…

Okay CoDz, here's a different one for ya; In Blops, we were introduced to some different type of maps with a completely different and new crew for the sake of changing things up a bit. All the story purpose aside, having the option to play as a different cast was fun, risky for Treyarch, but a refreshing fun idea nonetheless. I personally hate Five, but purely for the layout, the idea itself was very clever. Same goes for COTD, which IMO, would have been ten times better without "Zombrero" as I like to call him, getting in the way. Anyways, I've thought about some ideas in the past, one specifically I would like to share again as we're now approaching the zombi…

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…

I've been about this forum.. and I haven't seen much talk about the confirmed Zombie campaign.. Maybe no one has noticed it ? well here's a link to the E3 announcement of Black Ops 2 and Zombies campaign announcement (Last paragraph): http://www.computerandvideogames.com/34 ... top_banner On a side note, I've been wandering about Xbox.com and I saw this: http://www.xbox.com/en-US/marketplace/p ... ack-ops-II What do you expect of the Zombies Campaign and the "Villain" one ??

After the events at area 51 and moon the U.S. thought it would be safer at a remote island in the middle of the pacific ocean. There they tested gravity and tested if gravity would be the best result for combating against the horde. In their experiments they used small fragments of element 115 so that they would not be affected, by it but when bad went to worse they had to use huge chunks of the material. eventually it worked better than they anticipated, but it wasn't that powerful to combat against the horde. So they kept testing. One Scientist Professor Charles found out that the element 115 was becoming unstable and dissolved when the weapon started to fir…

Here's my theory; when you play Five, when you turn on the power, it's DEFCON 1. That means Nuclear War is emminent. So, what if it's when the moon rockets are shot towards the earth that it says Nuke war is emminent.. and since Five is at the same time as Ascension, then ascension would also be at same time as moon or a little bit before.. That's an idea i just came up with.. What do you think ? it seems farfetched.. but I haven't seen anyone post this on the forum.. so maybe no one thought about it ? EDIT: And im sorry if i posted this in wrong section, didnt know where else to put it.

With some of the threads floating about with ideas, I figured I'd express some of mine and steal ZOTD's formula a little bit here. Some of these ideas I've had for sometime now and have voiced before, but with the zombie season underway again, figured it was time for a refresh. So, here's my ideas and hopes for future maps to come: Map Environment/Weather Conditions - Alternating Weather Patterns Much like COTD, how we not only had our first map with a snowy atmosphere, but one with a nasty fog that would roll in about every 5 minutes or so. I personally love that the most, the thought of leading a train of sprinting zombies, some even faster tha…

Okay, everyone knows that the zombies came from 115 harnessing experiments, and that 115 got here by meteorites. Well, element 115, or Uup, is created by combining Calcium and Americium (and some others). What I want to know is HOW Element 115 got into (or became) the meteors that we have come to love/hate. I haven't seen any posts about this, so I decided to make one. Please leave reply's with plausible theories please. Thanks, The Doctor.

COTD has always been a myserious map, what with submarines, green lights, strange pulsating lights and the like appearing. Here are three more questions I'd like to add to the mix. -Why does George Romero posess such blatantly different characteristics than normal Zombies? His size, durability, irritability, strange glow. His capability for speech and the aptitude to use tools (stage light). Not to mention his strange glow and ability to remember his life before Zombification. Why does the water calm him down? How is he able to miraculously re-appear only a few rounds after we "kill" him? Is he even a Zombie at all? He defies every traditional quality of a Zombie. …

The Challenge will be divided into two sections (most revives and best revives to downs ratio). The winners will get brains on their last two posts. You can always submit multiple entries; just know that your best score will be taken into account. [tab][/tab]If you wish to enter into a more challenging version of the challenge, play your games on one of the Classic Maps. The winner if the score comes from that map will get extra brains. Good luck to all and check out some famous examples! Ehj~ V1Zo_WmfIto wj3c_scz544 kYHlbHHHXaM

Another Monday, I almost called in Sick because I was too tired and zombified to get to work but I don't want to use all my sickness allowance leaves and get written again by my manager. So I Woke up, got my Jugg(coffee) and sprinted to work. I looked at gas tank and it almost empty. Dammit, 9:02 and I am supposed to be at work at 9. Filled up Gas at Citgo across the street. Got to work at around 9:25 hoping none of my bosses would bump into me in lobby or elevator. Got lucky, Took my laptop (Mustang and sallys) out of the bag and started connecting power cables and my usb mouse as my coworker (randoms) approached me with a defect (issue) with email distribution not worki…

With the Master Zombie Guide 2 soon to release, I will present to you the appetizer. First of all its ok to not fully comprehend to Master Zombie Guide or Complete Solo Guide. When I first started playing I was grateful to have those two guides. But no matter how much I reread and study the guides I had trouble with the execution. Here is a much simpler and easier for the beginners. Zombie 101-Learn head shots. By round two or three zombies will start to get tougher to knife, you want to learn to aim and shoot toward their heads. Regardless of map you will find automatic machine guns after the first door. Aim machine guns at heads for quicker easier kil…

I was thinking of changing the look of the zombies firstly from the Nazis to a bit more modern type of look. I was thinking of creating a map on a Pearl Harbor. All the dead Americans can be seen rising from the dead and the characters should be changed from nikolai, dempsey, richtofen and takeo to mason, reznov, dragovich and hudson. Plus this time the player should get to chose which character he/she wants to play, if possible then @ certain levels the older characters should be made available with some perks to each other which would make the gameplay more fun and interesting also adding some meaning to unlocking new players they can chose from for becom…

The AUG has recently become one of my favorite weapons. Upgrade it and you get a usefull 3rd weapon without spending the 4000 points on Mule Kick and risking losing it if you happen to go down. We all have our own opinions on best weapons and favorite weapons. Not saying the AUG is superior to the rest but it has become one of my favorites.

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…

Basically I wanted a few things to be/not be in Black Ops 2 Zombies and I wasn't sure if Treyarch really know about them so I'm going to go ahead and say them. I hope Treyarch sees this and I'll post more as I come up with it. 1. No more g_spawn g_spawn is a error that happens to a lot of high rounders in zombies. Its very annoying as your score doesn't register if it happens. I think it happens because the game is fully utilized all the entities available so has nothing to do but post the error. First solution I suggest is that they don't spawn those entities when it happens therefore stopping it from happening completely. Second solution is that you increase t…

Co-op records, the general barometer of one's game. Much like GPAs, there is always hidden truth behind every score. Someone collecting a 4.0 from algebra , communications, and economics 101s is not as elite as someone with 3.5 from behavioral theories, database, and visual basics. A retarded monkey playing with way or eye can reach high twenties despite having 20+ downs. Trust me, it's been done. So the question is, have you earned your co-op scores? Or were you along for the ride? Most of my records were hard earned, with moon being the exception. COTD quit end of 27 never recorded, got there only because of way. 25 on Moon was embarrassingly unjustified, b…

Here's what we know: One map in zombies is going to be in a small town likely located in Cuba hense the Fedel Castro pictures, however we know that the American side of the earth (where Cuba is) has been blown to smithereens,( and for those who don't know there are 20 smiths in a smither and 40 smithereens in a smith) so I want to here your thaughts on that... Next we know there may be 8 characters, one of which (at least) is a girl, but oddly enough we havnt had any confirmation that tank, nickolia, takeo, or Sam in richtofen's body will be back....so thats a max of 7 unconfirmed charracters and a minimum of 3. Personally I want the regular z-crew back, …
