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.

Where haven't we been? We've been from a frozen outpost, to a chinease high rise, to the flipping moon... Each place just as impressive as the last... But where do we go now? We never seem to visit the same type of area twice, meaning we've only been to one swamp, one factory, one theater, ect.. So where else do we have to go? So I made this list of possible areas to travel! 1: Paris- ive seen how much you guys want Paris to happen, and it very well may be in the next map! Whose stopping it? 2:Desert: We've never had a sand area, I REALLY want to see some mummy zombies and pyramid Easter eggs! 3:Above the ocean: On say a cruise ship, a REALLY…

After the DICE presentation and some little bits of insights into the story, I have kind of compiled information that I think links together and will make up the next story arc. So here are my thoughts. First of all, I think that we will be continuing on with the story around Origins, but I think that the map we will get with the game, or at least one map will take place before this blueprint as there is another page seemingly before it, what that entails I do not know but I do think I know what this blue print links to. So we have a date, 1915 which is funny to me considering that this blueprint was meant to be made 100 years ago this year, those dates' connections ju…

With DLC 4 being most likely the final piece of Official Zombies content for Black Ops 2 (Map Wise not Mule Kick for every map). It will be interesting to see how Treyarch will handle this. Currently our only clues to this is a loading screen, more specifically Buried or Resolution 1295. Loading Screen What we have here is the loading screen. On the top right we seen two points of interest. A ripped portion of the page leading to a blueprint, and on the bottom left corner, what looks like a page between Buried and this blueprint. The first thing that comes to mind with most of us, is Der Riese. But before we scream remake. I think what we are most …

This is a question I'd like to ask about next year's ranking system: Which is better to you guys: Skill: Like the one we have now based on Kill/Death/Down/what round you're on that determines your rank. Objective: A bit more advanced and useful. This ranking system never goes down, but instead requires the player to perform certain tasks: Survive the first room without opening any doors, hit the mystery box 20 times in one game, complete the easter egg, ect. And for the second question: Should ranking systems be map-specific or apply to every map? Map specific: Each map a player has holds a different rank. One could b…

The tentacles of the Apothicans aren't really 'tentacles'. It's more that they're pieces of the being floating in and out of dimensions and that our mind can only comprehend them as tentacles. Carl Sagan's 'Flatland' describes this phenomenon fairly well. In it he explains how a third dimension is not only inconceivable but impossible to perceive by the two-dimensional senses of the inhabitants of the flat land. When a 3D being enters the 2D realm, any 2D, which he calls Flatlander, can perceive only one layer of the 3D being, changing as it enters the 2D realm further. Here are videos of certain 3D fruits (starfruit, garlic, banana), going through a 2D layer …

We all had to remember the picture of a zombie and the Eiffel Tower that can be found on Der Riese. Hopefully I'm not wrong, but I believe that Moon was supposed to be Paris before they actually changed it to Moon since the code name refers to Paris, yes? I don't think any of he BO2 maps take place in Paris either (could be wrong on that). Is there any chance we'd see them in Paris now? That's like the map I'm certainly waiting for to happen, even if Moon did in fact come in its place. I know there has be something story wise that'll lead to Paris or at least somewhere in France.

Every map has had its own unique wonder weapon. From thunder gun to the jet gun.. But what would you like to see as a new wonder weapon? I personally would want to see a fire gun similar to the winters howl from black ops 1 map five, but shoots fire instead of ice?

Would you support a next-gen remaster of all previous zombie maps (in a standalone game)? 1 2

Yes, I know, so many demands for a zombies-focused game, including a campaign that focuses on the story. This, however, is NOT what I mean. What I mean is, would you support a REMAKE/remaster of all published zombie maps, from Nacht Der Toten to Origins, in one single game? The game could be called something like Call of Duty: Zombie Chronicles. Since the next CoD is being developed by Sledgehammer, those zombie fans will have something to play to kill the time until the next Treyarch COD game. It really is a filler. The possibilities are infinite, and the published content definitely make up a game of its own. 1. The texture would be insanely bett…

I wouldn't mind seeing an "Ascension" Sized map again. Bus Depot, Farm, Town and Nuketown are just too small. I'm sure if we had to pick between these four maps and BO1 maps, a good majority of players would find "old school" was a better choice. Nothing too small, nothing too vast and full of empty darkness. Don't get me wrong, I like what they've done with "Tranzit" it definitly opened some doors for the "Future Zombies" Thanks CoDz for making a forum for ideas on new Zombie addition(s) def made me happy when I heard you were actually asking the public what it wants. And none of what we post is edged in stone either, you can tweek our ideas to make Zombies fun…

Before reading the Theory You should watch this 14 minute video. Once you finish you will understand the theory a bit more So now that you are have heard the story I want to point out some parallels to our own zombies storyline. We've got an ancient race.....a great evil that resurfaces after eons... and we've got body swapping. These 3 Things can also be found in our own zombies storyline. The connection is even greater now that we have Lovecraft inspired lore thrown into the mix. We are currently seeing a battle between 2 Races. The Apothicans and the Keepers. We still do not know if the Apothican's are the only creatures we…

We think we know everything that happened during Moon. Mad scientist launches the Rockets at earth in order to Break the Rift…. But what if we had it all wrong? What if the missiles were originally meant to stop the opening of the Rift? In the 1960’s WWII was over and the united states salvaged remnants of group 935. They discovered, research, The uses of Divinium, some Live specimens and even the advanced teleportartion systems from der riese. They reverse engineered much of this and even managed to perfect Teleportation so that it allowed undead matter to pass through it. They created the Winters Howl and even installed a pack a punch inside the con…

Edward has a secret. Something he can NEVER let the other 3 Know. What if Takeo, Nikolai and Dempsey don’t really exist? What if these 3 were created for the sole purpose of saving the Multiverse? These 3 test Subjects were Super Soldiers created to Aid Edward in his Plan to collect the artifacts and set the timeline straight. However they were also given false memories to motivate them into doing what they need to do. They believe that in saving the universe they will be able to go home to their families, their old lives and their homelands. However these characters may not actually have a home to go back to. We now know that there are multiple time streams and universes…

So without further Ado let’s begin with Day 1 which I call. The Five evils theory So, Lets talk about the Shadow Man. This Apothican trickster confronts The Shadows of Evil characters into opening the Gateway allowing him to destroy their Dimension. However he says something really interesting “ Your service to the overlords is appreciated, Our complete assimilation of this dimension shall now proceed. ” This indicates that asid…

Ok, so for the past few years we’ve analyzed every map, every easter egg, even scraps of papers we find on the ground. We have achieved great results but we are still left with so many questions. However I believe I have discovered something no one has ever even paid attention to at all. The portrait of Roebuck in Five. Now, many people have looked at this portrait and just dismissed It as a mere reference to W@W. However I believe we have completely missed the implications that ONE portrait has on the Storyline, especially now more than ever. We now know thanks to the Giant that their mission is to set everything right again.…

With Black Ops 2 the community was quite divided about the Black Ops 2 it was pretty much love it or hate it game. For me it was latter in both story and game design choices. But this thread is not about BO2 but about the future of zombies. Do you care anymore? Do you hope it goes the path BO2 chose? Do you wish for it to return more to its roots?

But is also pretty tactical and felt like it deserved its own thread. Z-Gas 3 Max I cannot decide if they should come from the box or somewhere else.. Tell me what you think. Anyway it is a small advanced looking canister filled with an unknown green substance. It primes by twisting the top, then is thrown. Green gas comes out and all the zombies run to it. It lasts about as long as an awful lawton bolt and isnt too good.. Lets try throwing it at other stuff A zombie- All the other zombies attack it as if its a …

1. Hellion. This Zombie looks like a normal zombie, but is on fire. He spawns one his own wave every 5 rounds. Every 2 Hellion rounds another spawns(similar to panzer soldat). The Hellion is As fast as the Panzer, and has one attack, melee. It does 100 points of damage instantly downing a player with out jug. This boss gets slower and weaker the more you shoot it. This boss has 700 health points. 2. Hitler. Well, it is nazi zombies. Hitler has a ranged attack, pistol. He is as fast as a player walking, he has 1000 points of health. On later rounds, he gets a carbine instead of a pistol, doing more damage. His pistol does 50 and his carbine does 75. Any ideas of b…

So I got thinking after a couple rounds of zombies the other day and and thought of an idea. And as I'm typing this I realized it could either be a simple great idea, or I'll just sound completely retarded because it already exists and I'm out of the loop, OR someone beat me to it. But ya know what? Yolo. One of the things I still to this day don't know how some of you do it is reach these ridiculously high rounds. Not because I can't reach them myself, but because after mid-twenties or so, I've got just about everything you could need to survive and find myself dying of boredom. There's nothing else to do! Come next zombies season, I actually think there's a…

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…

just gonna make it quick and simple. Zombie eyes will always be a part of the Game and they will always come in a variety of colors. So far we have seen Yellow, Blue, Red, and Purple. I personally don't see the difference between orange and yellow so orange does not count. now I ask.... What Color would you like to see Zombie eyes become in the future? personally I think Green or Black.
