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.

8 Player map maximum Takes place on the moon and a new area. The new area starts in a place similar to Der Riese where there is a teleporter receiving pad. There are two doors each 750 leading down to hallways those hallways have small rooms where the box and perks can be found. The hallways connect to the main hub. The main hub has the main teleporter and the starting area for the Earth box. The teleporter will only work if all players are there and if the players on the moon are all on the teleporter there. On the moon the four people will be the four original characters. On Earth Misty, Marlton, Russman and Samuel. The original group will follow M…

The story begins in the abandoned Wenceslaus mine near the big German City of Breslau. A facility called "Der Riese" was built here, named after the name of the project: Project Riese. It was here where German scientists (from Group 935) worked on a top-secret German wunderwaffe called "Die Glocke", German for "the Bell", but also called "the Flytrap". Because of lack of documentation, it is yet unknown what exact purpose the structure had, however we do know that it had to become some kind of weapon of mass destruction. Die Glocke is described as being a device "made out of a hard, heavy metal" approximately 2.7 metres wide and 3.7 to 4.6 metres high, …

Comning Straight out of the Comic Books with "Victus" "Marlton guides the other three to his location, where he uses the Element 115 shard for a contraption requiring the activation of 4 individuals. The contraption extracts their blood, with Stuhlinger explaining Richtofen's words that it is supposed to help recognize them and differentiate them from zombies. A flash occurs, and the four find the view of the once barren forest before them now changes to a lush forest at nightime, leaving Misty wondering whethey they have "fixed the world"." "Stuhlinger ignores Richtofen's request and heads off to the room alone, where he finds the zombies making wa…

Will there be one? Or will origins be the end? I do not believe so, mainly because the way that a twitter post was worded "This is the most intricate zombies map to date" The part where it says to date is what leaves me to believe this is not the end. Besides, we do not know what happens to N4. But with the way the LFTF were worded, this could be the end. Changing the course of history will alter the zombies in the present. Or maybe eradicate the whole story all together. What are your thoughts? what do you think or want to happen? RR Out

I found this post a long time ago on a blog back when we all played black ops 1. I thought it was pretty funny and so I saved it onto my computer. Today I was looking through some stuff on my computer and came across this so I felt like uploading it. I also made some modifications to it to make it more fun. Remember this was posted back when we played black ops 1 where they released a lot of patches for all the glitches they had in that game. This is no offense to Treyarch. I know this is very unlikely but its just something to laugh about. Enjoy. After all these patches going on in our zombie games, I got to thinking: what would zombies be like in 5 years when Treya…

So in the recent "Letters From the Field" from Treyarch's Facebook page, aside from other "sources", there has been mention that there is the possibility of a giant metal man in Northern France, where the next map is supposedly taking place. Recently I've been looking into stuff that was hidden in Der Riese, and I discovered something that read "Die Glocke is mobile." This implies at the time of writing the note, Die Glocke isn't currently at Der Riese, so there's a possibility the teleporters weren't actually Die Glocke, but was instead this giant machine. This is just a quick theory I threw together at one in the morning, so it likely has many holes. What ar…

The Ludvig Maxis Technique

A famous novel written in 1962 written by William Heinemann known as 'A Clockwork Orange' is a story set in a near dystopian future where society is full of extreme youth violence. The protagonist, Alex who is a teenager is reformed in the novel and talks about his experiences. One method of reforming him was known as the Ludovico technique. The Ludovico technique is a form of aversion therapy. The therapy involves making the patient watch violent images for long periods of time, while being forced to have their eyes open via a specula. Also, they were given drugs to induce nausea, paralysis and fear. Eventually, the patients would experience severe nausea when causin…

The following is merely food for thought….. Food for those who suffer from the Hunger…. It was that fateful day, Long ago when the first prospect of an entire race of beings erupted from the fires of a falling star. Deep within the ghastly swamps of Japan Group 935 would take certain actions that would doom the earth to a constant cycle that has yet to be broken. The element was experimented on by the Germans in was at the time known as the greatest war ever witnessed on the planet earth. The element was distributed to locations all throughout germany in order to better study it and advance technology far beyond human comprehensio…

The Call of Duty Zombies story in World at War and Black Ops 1 were mostly inspired by existing conspiracy theories. Lets call a few: The Illuminati, Moonnazi's, antigravity devices and Die Glocke, Agartha, Area 51, Nazi wonder weapons, Kennedy's assassination, the CIA and aliens. Another conspiracy theory you may know is that the Moon landing is fake. Does this have something to do with our story as well? Lets check it out. "I believe that this nation should commit itself to achieving the goal, before this decade is out, of landing a man on the moon and returning him safely to the Earth. (JFK, 1961)" - Moon level description So, I believe that Bro…

Now that origins is over and everything has been revealed it is time to think about the next game's zombies. To start thing off ill just say that in future zombies there will be two different stories going on at the same time one will be the continuation of buried and the other will be about the real zombies world, the one we saw at the end of origins. I believe that the Z plot of the next game will depend on the percentage of people who got the Maxis or Richtofen ending in Buried. I believe that if more than 50% of people got the Maxis ending the plot for the next Game will be about teaming up with Richtofen and useing his zombie to complete the quest EEs. But …

As seen in the last 2 zombie maps, there are towers that have something to do with the map's Easter Egg and The Zombies Story. I have an idea for a map, and how it would fit in to the "Tower" theme. Imagine a map where you are running through the streets of Modern-Day New England, and the main setting would be a facility similar to Der Rise, as stated back in WaW, Group 935 had other facilities other than Waffenfabrik Der Riese. This specific facility was made AFTER WW2, and has some technological improvements from the previous 935 Facilities. This facility is underground, hidden under the Big Ben tower, which is the new tower I was talking about. This tower, along with …

P85e2pb4W-4 Alright, so that was good ol, spider's take of the numbers, but here's what I think we've been given this info for... :geek: (Sherlock Holmes voice) Let's review our clues: We have a possible game dlc called "MOB of the dead" that was leaked, and I'm not going to consider this a "LEAK" because: A: That gives us VERY minimal information, we still wouldnt know the Characters in the map, the weapons, new features, or even where the map would be... And B: Its likely going to be announced (OR something else will be announced) soon enough... Back on subject, we have MOB of the dead, as well as tweets of numbers in the Fibonachi …

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…

There are 16 lyrical songs produced by Treyarch Sound for the Easter Eggs in the Zombies storyline. There are also four playable characters. That evenly divides the songs into four groups. While it might be... pareidolia... to mark this... I don't think it is. I found a few interesting connections when separating the songs into four distinct groups. The first group includes all of the music from Call of Duty: WAW Zombies, and one song from Call of Duty: Black Ops Zombies. They are Edward's inner thoughts and conversations with the other four. Lullaby for a Deadman - Edward Richtofen's thoughts about himself, including parts of what he thinks about the oth…

As you may know, perks are a constant ever-updating facet of the Zombies experience, handy beverages that enhance the abilities of a player via numerous, perhaps magical effects within these seemingly rather mundane soft drinks. However, their creation, nor the explanation of how they achieve these effects has as of yet, not been explained in entirety within the storyline. Not one for merely slapping on the lazy story writing excuse of "it's magic", I'd love to entertain an explanation tied down with real life science, along with the sci-fi genre's pseudo-science, however misguided or a self-delusion it may be. So keeping such in mind, despite the depth of detail and res…

SO how do you all think the Mark two will end up come COD 2015? Personally, I see it as an ample opportunity to persuade players to get the hardened editions and other bonus additions, as the M2 would be a great addition to the game that we know players are ok with. Of course there will be other ways of getting the M2 later on… But on the other hand it COULD be left to only be used in BO2…. Never to be seen again….

I know I'm not the only one who is pumped to see some new info, and wow. A giant mech warrior? I don't think any of us expected that. But maybe we should have. Firstly there is the obvious connection between this machine and Der Riese, which is that Der Riese is German for "the giant". The sign on the facility's wall reads "waffenfabrik Der Riese" which means weapon factory: the giant. Maybe this name doesn't refer to the facility itself, but whatever they manufactured there. As MrRoflWaffles has pointed out, there are several frames flashed during the trailer, which form an image when photoshopped together. The 935 logo is visible in the image, so we can assu…

Hello....and welcome Back.....Today I would like to talk about a key component to Zombies which was first introduced to the Game on Verrukt. This Key element is the Power switch. The Power has remained relatively the same since verrukt until Shangri-la. In shangri-la there were 2 switches and instead of just powering up the map it showed us a unique way the power was provided. By taking energy from Water. Although the result was the same we still got to see something new. Then in Tranzit we had a new quest to turn on the Power. We had to build the Power switch. This is a simple task that takes a minute or so to complete if you know where the parts are. You c…

ALIENS! (a gamer can dream right?) Imagine aliens spawning in from ufos, possibilities are endless. I know this isn't a "future zombie" thing... Anyways I'd love to see Treyarch do this. You can tell they have some interest in the "supernatural" or just aliens. Hangar 18 comes to mind from bo1. They could get bored with zombies after a while, maybe not. This would be a awesome route to explore.

So I've been musing for a few days about the Swiss Cheese of a storyline of Black Ops 2 Zombies. We had absolutely no idea what was coming next after Moon, other than it was going to be set on a scorched Earth. What did we end up with? The final scene of Origins. EVERYTHING we know, loved and cared for could possibly just be a children's game. So it got me thinking. We love the Storyline. We love Easter Eggs. We love Easter Egg hunting. We love activating secret parts of a map (such as the Teddy bears/meteorites etc). We love killing zombies. We love the Wonder Weapons. We love the weapons. I'm going to stop with the love list, but you guys hopefully get …

Found something interesting in Treyarch's "Nikolai_Memories" video I'd like to share. Around the 1:07 mark of the video you see something moving in the background that is not a Zombie. Just before we see this, quote Nikolai: I can no longer deny the possibility of an unseen power, a guiding hand helping us to fulfill our destiny. After he says this the background fades back to the forest and pans to the right, and as this happens to can hear faint screech from the distance. He concludes with: My path is chosen, our fate has sealed. Before the video cuts to the scene, a figure of an animal is moving beyond the tree [on the r…

The Todorov Narrative Theory
by Guest- 0 replies

Hello again! Today I have a theory which as far as I know hasn't been done before, it links with something I learnt of today. First off some background information. As the title says this theory is about the Todorov Narrative, what this basically is, is a theory that was created by Tzvetan Todorov, a Russian man who thought that all narratives follow a cycle of events almost. The way this goes is in five steps. The first is Equilibrium. This is the part of the story where the main character(s)/ protagonist(s) are introduced and where the setting is introduced. The second is the Disruption of the Equilibrium. Something happens within the story that will have a…

Im sure most if not all of you have seen the trailer for Origins, which is presumed to be the name of the newest map coming either in late august or early September. It stands to reason with the years from the "Letters from the Field" and the images shown, that this map will take place in the WW1 era. A post I have read suggests that we will use machinery, weapons, and more from the era. Now, maybe I am looking way to deep into the trailer, but I have a few questions that I would like answered: When it shows the image of Takeo's katana, there is a box with a switch on the top. What does it do? What are your thoughts as to the purpose of this device? There i…

Ah, Tunguska. Just saying that brings back the nostalgia. Finding those boxes in Shi No Numa labelled "Tunguska" was strange...in a good kind of way. For those of you who don't know, the Tunguska event "was an enormously powerful explosion that occurred near the Podkamennaya Tunguska River in what is now Krasnoyarsk Krai, Russia, at about 07:14 KRAT (00:14 UT) on June 30 [O.S. June 17], 1908." according to Wikipedia. It is largely believed to have been caused by a meteorite impact of some sort (an air burst). A meteorite, huh? What sort of special element can we obtain from meteorites in the CoD Zombies universe? The Tunguska Event has been speculated and theori…
