Research & Development
For those who wish to talk and discuss, or speculate, their ideas for upcoming Zombies maps.
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.

I believe that Treyarch should release both a map pack 4 and 5 on the same day, August 27th, and they would both be all zombie maps. Map Pack 4 would include: New Zombie Map Ascension (re-mastered) Call of the Dead (re-mastered) Shangri-La (re-mastered) Moon (re-mastered) Map Pack 5 would include: Nacht der Untoten (re-mastered) Verruckt (re-mastered) Shi No Numa (re-mastered) Der Riese (re-mastered) Kino Der Toten (re-mastered) Five (re-mastered) Dead Ops Arcade (re-mastered) These are just ideas though, and would allow thoughs who want just the new zombie map, and the DLC from Black Ops 1 to get the maps they won't and those who wa…

It makes sense doesn't it? During the loong, looong, off-season, we get a bi/tri-monthly comic book. It could slowly build up the first map of BO3, or simply give us background stories. It's obvious that Actvi/Trey have the talent for full-fledged comics. As much as I hate to say this, they can even make a huge profit from it (asssuming modern day comics are 4.00 bucks a pop) by selling it for $20-25. Though it's a bit late into the series to start doing this now (My money is on them finally ending it in Black Ops 4), it's still a great idea that's a win/win to both parties.

Ok this has been a thought that has been floating in my mind and I wanted to write it down here. I was thinking about a time travel map. How it works is that you start out in Nacht Der Untoten and go through up until Origins. It has no impact on the storyline at all, it's just for fun. Lets say at round twenty your screen looks like something like the transporter form Der Reise and you spawn in Verruct and you play off from round twenty till round forty and you transport to the next map.

Welcome, welcome! I will be posting a series of zombies ideas over the next few days, and this happens to be the first one! I will discuss my ideal game and such in another thread, and of course, that includes MockingMe's awesome menu selection, with one bonus, which I'll discuss in my next thread. Without further ado, I will get on with my idea for the first map to come along with the next installment (which btw, my plan comes with more than one map on disc). The easter egg section is unfinished. Map Name: Introduction Takes Place: In the house, right after the events of the Origins cutscene Map Size: Medium (keep in mind, this is the introduction map to the game, and n…

Perks, they affect our gameplay, skill, weapons, and overall limit to survive. Each map usually brings in a new perk, some good, some bad (I'm looking at you, Whos-Who) I think us, the community can think of some good ideas. Post your ideas below! Sent from my SCH-S738C using Tapatalk

Hello there. Throughout the ages of Zombies, many have called for a player limit upwards of 4, the current max for a proper game. I am here to propose a new feature which I believe should be added to the next instalment of zombies, Spectator Mode! What Spectator Mode would allow would be for more than the maximum amount of players for the match to join, but not in play. That is right, they are able to join only to spectate. This way, someone could join simply to observe a game, but not affect it in any way possible. This means that, even if there were 18 people in a game, only the amount for 4p Zombies would spawn. The Spectator Players are not counted as real chara…

So this is odd. On the new CoD Advanced Warfare Xbox One bundle, there are zombies style hashes (round markers). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gWa54-MMxwQ I really hope there is not zombies in Sledgehammer's game at this point. I hope it's just some sort of weird hommage. But maybe it's something similar like cyborg zombies or terminator robots, though I'm not sure why they'd have little chalk marks for rounds in a future setting. We'll see I guess. There must be a reason it's there.

Hi, it's the boring guy here. I'm not really a creative or fantasizing guy, but I'm sharing my ray gun ideas. I thought to myself, if one of my ray gun ideas make it into the next game, I would score big time with my son and his friends. These are Ray Gun templates, each with special animations when zombies die. Ray Gun: The Vaporizer Clip/ Mag 10/90 Rate of fire 225 The ray gun vaporizer shoots rays similar to the original but vaporize zombies plus splash damage. It does 1550 damage, good enough to be one hit kill until 15, plus 550 splash damage. Ray Gun: The Evaporator 15/105 450 Once PAPed it becomes the Evaporator. It works much like the or…

Zombies and Tarot Cards?

I was thinking about the Binding of Isaac just now and I thought of the tarot cards in it and thought they could relate to zombies. Has anyone ever linked characters to tarot cards? I have been linking some characters, utilities and just general stuff in zombies to some of them so I am going to make a list and if you think otherwise or think of something I haven't please tell me. Also tell me if anyone has made this connection before because on some of these I can truly see some strong ones. I am going to update this post as I go on, a lot of it has been done already but I would rather here other peoples opinions for now. I have been working on this post all day as well s…

The Darkness, Ancient Egypt and the Teddy Bear So far within the storyline we know that there is something else in the MPD besides Samantha. We also know that whatever it is, it was inside a Pyramid. According to ancient Egyptian beliefs it was custom to bury those who were seen as Gods, within a deep pyramid. It is also believed by some that the pyramids themselves were designed by Ancient Aliens. Of course this sounds ridiculous however in Shangri-la we do in fact see a strange Non-human skull in Richtofen’s Tomb. Which could suggest that there is indeed some sort of alien involvement in the story. Another piece of evidence that suggests aliens is the Pyramid …

The basis of most threads and theories are mostly made by 1 person, with sometimes the help of some others that will be given credit. In the comments there mostly exists a discussion with as result sometimes the change of that theory. The idea of this topic is to make a thread, with many members of this awesome site. We don't give anyone credit, but the idea behind it is that we made this together, with discussions in the thread itself. I chose as topic the in DLC 3 reappeared scientiest: Gersch. It is still a big mystery what exacly happened in Ascension and how he came in Stalingrad and what happened with him after SOPHIA captured him. So edit as much as you like. I alr…

So I just watched the music video or trailer for Zombie Chronicles. I noticed that there is a GobbleGum machine in it. Which leads me to believe that the did more than just remaster the maps. I do not know how I feel about this. It just wont have the same feeling of accomplishment getting to higher rounds using the GobbleGum machine. But it could also come in handy and be very useful on Origins, and Moon, which both take ages and ages to get set up on. But this also leads me to start believing some of the theories and speculations of new and different easter eggs in the maps. I mean I am sure that they will keep all of the main easter eggs, and most of the small ones, but…

Gorod Krovi, a map taking place in an fracture of the original universe. A universe in which the Battle of Stalingrad has grown into an even more bloodier conflict that seems to never end. A universe in which the Nazi Group 935 has created Dragons. Many people over here, including me, seemed to dislike their sudden appearance, without any background/story why they are here. No explanation: Group 935 just seemed to breed these creatures out of nowhere. But after doing some research, I found out that this might not be true. As you might know, the Nazi party stimulated the racial purity of the Germanic people, with Aryan ancestors, origination all the way back to t…

I have been toying around with this theory for a while now. I just posted it on the Codz reddit, but I feel it also belongs on Codz. I believe this quote from the Zombie Chronicles timeline gives an interesting hint towards the true nature of Monty and the Shadowman. “In the beginning, there was only the Aether and the Keepers. Among them were two beings who would later be known by many names. One would be known as Doctor Monty and the other as the Shadowman” The second line appears to indicate Monty and the Shadowman were former keepers; the “among them” meaning “among the keepers”. However, if the second sentence only refers to the keepers, …

I've had some many great discussions on Discord that have culminated here. The Storms First, I discussed with @RichKiller the importance of storms in Zombies. We see them all over the place: The "Five" intro cutscene is the first one. Kennedy says this famous line after Nixon freaks out when the zombies are breaking in to the Pentagon: There actually is a storm heard in the background of this scene, meaning one is actually happening on the day of this meeting. We also see storms physically in: Shadows of Evil, TranZit, Nuketown, Mob of the Dead, Origins, BO3's Ascension, Der Eisendrache in the form of the Storm Bow, Zetsubou No Sh…

I know what you're probably thinking: "He just got those names of the Two Down video Eddy is a liar, he didn't think those up." You're right, they did come from the video. But think about it. Germans (like me) on this forum know what Der Leuchtturm translates to: The Lighthouse English lighthouse pic seen on Der Riese board. Coincidence? I'm not so sure. Ascension was first. We take a rocket or lander to the Moon. Fight up there. Take the rocket again. We crash land into the water outside Der Leuchtturm. The last one should sound VERY familiar to americans.

so basically i feel that the next map will not take place on the moon, had to point that out first, but will instead either be somewhat of a prequel-ish map to ascension, or a map that will answer the ascension questions but will generate more questions on the way much like how the show lost progressed

What about the lighthouse? Why would 3arc put a picture of a lighthouse if there wouldnt be a map for it? I mean why not put a map in England bcuz England was involved in ww2 and they could have found German technolgy leading to their own zombie creations. And also i still don't understand why ascension was the next map bcuz they never showed any easter eggs leading towards to a rocket place except for the teleporter room with the rocket. And speaking of that room has anyone made an in depth thread of that room bcuz there is tv in the room that show a house like the one in villa. And think about villa as the lighthousemap becuase there is a sort beach part outside the m…
