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.

There have been some cool Wonder Weapons over the years. And whynot have the public choose the Weapon we use? There should be a voting system through all social apps.. (Forums, Facebook, Twitter, Myspace, Youtube, etc.) Here's just a few ideas: -A time machine gun....... Let me fill you in... Whatever you shoot at, increases in age until it flat out turns into dust, or will revert back into a baby. Since zombies game bounces back and forth through time, this could help indead. esp. for the easter egg. -A Gun used to turn on the Main Power. (Perks will be on a "flickering" Back-Up Generator until then. And then the fun can begin) -Gersh Device Componen…

Saw Jay do it, now it's my turn: 1. The Story So Far - Just where do we go from here?: As I've mentioned many times before, I liked Zombies better when the developing storyline was a lot more cryptic and full of mystery and the only objective seemed to be to find what was truly going on. Between WaW and the first Black Ops, Zombies was more about dark experiments based off real Nazi history and myths, and all the locations had purpose or meaning, they were all connected in some way or another. To me, the storyline should have ended with Samantha, as to me, that always felt like the biggest goal. In Blops, every map kept pointing more and more towards Samantha. I r…

I'm making this thread to get everyone's ideas together about new zombies game modes that will be introduced in the future. Personally, I'm not a HUGE fan of the new game modes, as I like the original core zombies, but every now and then a change of pace can be refreshing. I've only had one idea good idea for a game mode that I think would be fun: Game Mode Name: Territory Description: Played in full TranZit maps, however, no transportation is available. Players are divided into 2 teams. Start on opposite sides of the map, and must compete for areas of the map as well as reasources(pack a punch, perks, and the box). Enemy players can shoot each other, …

I was watching some Skyrim mods a few days ago and an idea popped into my head, and I wanted to share to see what you all though about it. In the video, a very talented player had created an arena, he would pit in game enemies against each other. The winner could carry on to the next round until he eventually met something that killed him, which that winner would go on ect ect. The idea was, what if there was a mode where we could pit say...40 zombies against a Panzer soldat, or Hell hounds VS Jumping Jacks? They system being, all start with full health, none of the monsters are controlled by players. The rounds carry over like they would in a regular zombie…

Hi, So recently, I've been thinking about how everyone is predicting the future zombies maps directly off of hints and possible storyline intentions. But I've come to the realization that there's one more simple way to figure some of this out; New Gamemodes! But before I can get into that, we need to do a brief history lesson. (We all know it, just bare with me. I'm trying to make a point.) History Class It's boring. Our original map that came with Black Ops 2 wasn't your typical survival map. It was massive. So massive, that they had to create a way for us to get around, thus, the birth of the Bus Driver. Now, in light of this not being just a simple buy …

Fracture [story Concept] A long time ago there was a group composed of many scientists who’s intentions were to improve the human condition. Group 935. After world war 2 ended this secret organization became defunct and their very presence was forgotten as their story was buried within history. However….history should not be forgotten….or it could repeat itself…. The year is 1985. After world war II America Sparked massive scientific breakthroughs and technological advances never before deemed possible. Over the course of 40 years Humanity has Evolved into far more superior beings. Medical science now allows human beings to alter their own genetic makeup at will. Yo…

I had an basic idea for a new zombie game mode that could be added to the next DLC map pack. Here it is. The game mode would be called Horde. A new map could be made just for this game mode would be relatively open. There would be only a select few perks near where you spawn including Mule Kick, Double Tap and Speed Cola, the mystery box and PaP will also be there and a few wall weapons. Hundreds of level 1 zombies but most of them run come from all directions. The goal of the game is to last as long as you can and not let a certain amount of zombies in a certain area that your in. You could play it against other teams similar to grief, co-op or solo. All stats would…

If you're anything like me, you love achievements. No matter how big or how small, you love the little ping that pops up when you've done something neat. In fact, I love them so much to the point where I have maxed out every CoD game since Call of Duty 4. Now, I ask you all, do you think Black Ops II will have 2000G? The first game to hit that milestone was Gears of War 3, with each of its four DLC packs adding 250G. WaW only got to 1500G with the last two map packs, Black Ops went to 1700G with all four of its, and MW3 went to the oddly numbered 1610G. I believe BOII will hit 2000G simply because each of its DLC packs will (or should) contain 250G a pop, if …

A Tactical Insert. I hate having to have my whole team spawn me over to where I wanna spawn at. Half the time, either the zombie or crawler dies out and I spawn in the middle of nowhere. Buy it off the wall for 1000 and once it's used you can still get Monkey Bombs out of the box. I hope others agree with this minor change.

Cheesy name i know but check out this map. Summary: The undead have risen again from the medivel graves near an abandonded castle. Watch your back as you travel through this vast castle with its winding staircases and secret passages. Dont stay anywhere too long or something might just come a thumpin'..... Atmosphere: It is dark outside and there is little light. There is a huge candelabra in the first room and is one of main sources of light. The darkest places are as dark as the Tranzit foggy areas and the brightest is like Kino. Gloomy atmosphere. Creepy like Verrukt. Suddenly on round 5, the candelabra crashes to the floor, revealing a secret passage. Howev…

Hello, survivors. My name is Ludvig Maxis. You might know me, I have contacted you for a while. You have now activated 2 towers. Now you must activate another one. But to do this you must do a quite challenging mission. To activate this tower you must go back in time. Yes, it is possible. The Voice in Samuel's head wants to destroy the world. But if you help me, the world will heal. To do this you will need to convince Edward to move you to Hangar 18. Then you will need to obtain 4 Wunderwaffe's. You can obtain them from parts scattered around the hangar. Then you will need to power the teleporter, but do not, DO NOT step on it! You will go to the Moon and that is no…

A little disappointed this sub forum isn't seeing as much traffic as it could. We know Treyarch look to forums for ideas. If you did not like BO2 Zombies, than post your ideas and threads on what you think should improve and stuff in this sub-forum. Now is the perfect time to post these ideas, they will be developing and forming ideas. You're ideas can help create and form the zombies experience you want. You have to voice your opinion to have it heard, because it's not just going to magically appear in game what you want if you keep quiet. I guess that's all I wanted to say. Just post your ideas and feedback if you want them heard, constructively of course. And yea…

they should really put in an option to make clans in zombies cuz im tired of getting put in games with random newbs without mic you should be able to add people who you know are good players to your clan, so whenever i start up bo2 i get to inmediatley see wich clanmembers are online and up for a good game of zombieslaying. maybe even allowing a short description of your function in the team: -players like me who get a thrill out of reviving often and in order to do so will get all equipment to do it more easily like krauss -players who get thrill from highest kills/headshot wich is also necessary if you want to go through rounds first -explosive experts w…

Ok so as we can see from the new Giant map The NO4 are going back before O4 Richtofen took control of the MPD. This takes place before Shi No Numa around the same time as the initial betrayal. So Maxis and samantha are killed or at least richtofen thinks this is what happens Ludvig Maxis states at the end of origins "The Paradox must be resolved" Maxis then enters the Light and the Paradox Is resolved resulting in us going What I believe is that Time started off as stable before WWII and the Zombies. This is a timeline where everything is Normal and the events that took place with group 935 are not as extraordinary as the one depicted in the storyline. However somewhe…

It would be EPIC! if all the maps from Black Ops returned in the last DLC plus a new map. Imagine those 10 maps coming back along with the maps we'll have on Black Ops II. That would be completely insane! Even better is what if they brought the old weapons from World at War and Black Ops back? Can you imagine having the MG42, RPK and LSAT. How about multiple Wonder Weapons like the Sliquifier, Wunderwaffe and Baby Gun (not the technical name, I know)? How about having Monkey Bombs and the Gersch Device on the same map? You have to admit, a customizable box with these features would be sweet on EVERY SINGLE MAP would be "sweet dude". To further the dreams, how about we cho…

This is my first theory, and I'm not sure if this has been said before. What if, Tranzit's NDU isn't just there to bring the map to somehow fit in the story, but it's for us to foreshadow that the next 3-4 DLCs zombies maps will have the original four maps somewhere in them?

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 …
