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.

Hey PIGoPRIOR here with some ideas for the leaderboards and other stat tracking utilities (Elite, career stats, etc.). Add your K/D Add average round Still have the amount of downs and deaths shown, but take away your position in the world, as that is impossible to climb up. Useless. Add all guns with the amount of kills gotten (kills and revives for Ballistic Knife) along with accuracy. For maps, show many times you have played it, how many hours you've payed it, and your highest round on it. Add windows boarded Drops gotten (also how many youve gotten of each one) Perks gotten (also how many youve gotten of each one) Shows W/L for Grief and Turned …

I realize that there's already a thread somewhat similar to this, but I believe that's more of what people are expecting from zombies. What I want in this thread is some really good suggestions that you think should be included in Zombies. Do you have an idea for a new map? A new trap? New weapons? New characters? New perks? If there's anything new that you think should be included in Zombies, please leave them here. Ultimately, what do YOU suggest that Treyarch should do with Zombies? If you'd like to tell us what you're expecting from Zombies, rather than what you suggest should be included, post here: viewtopic.php?f=81&t=19114 Also, here is Mp1st reporti…

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…

This is why we need a gun game in the next zombies game. It is very fast paced and a ton of fun to destroy and set new leaderboards. Those who never played it basically you need to earn certain amount of points to advance to a new gun. And you have several weapons before you beat the gun game mode. Different perks/boosts in this game mode is just an added bonus.

Hey guys, I have been thinking more and more what they will do with zombies after this or the next game. Either a)they will continue their way of having Zombies in the game b)they will create a standalone zombie game that exists outside the standard 3arc/IW cycle or they will have a completely new way of giving us our zombies. I personally would like b and I have thought out some ideas. Xbox Live / PlayStation Network / Steam Public Match Solo Custom Games Custom Maps Dead Ops Arcade Options System Link Local Options Store (Xbox) The maps are as follows (thanks goes to MMX for making this list): Berlin Germany Nacht der Untoten Surv…

Zombies and Tarot Cards?
by Guest- 4 replies
- 2k views
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…

So while zombies is out of season, I decided to give Ghosts a try. I wasn't too impressed with the campaign and multiplayer didn't interest me. Extinction however, is a different story. I played it a few times and wasn't very good but as I kept going and going I started to absolutely love it. It has that zombies survival feel with a mix of interesting challenges and objectives that keeps the game from getting boring and repetitive. Playing all of this Extinction made me think an awful lot about zombies and how what Extinction is doing right could easily work in zombies. So I'd like to break down a few things I think zombies could learn from Extinction. AI: The first …

So does anyone think the new die rise map will be a tranzit type of map? As much as I would approve I kinda have my doubts. For one, I don't think activision would miss the oppurtunity to advertise revolution as 4 multi player maps plus "multiple" zombie maps. I think it would lean more so towards how nuketown is, another location to zoom in on and one survival/ possible grief mode. Thoughts?

I was talking to a few of my friends over Skype and we all remembered the theory that if you found TranZit on a globe and drilled a hole through the Earth,you would end up in Die Rise.Well,we got our globes and Google Earth to see what was opposite of Alcatraz. We found that about 4 out of the 5 of us ended up in North Korea/South Korea and somebody ended up in Japan.We were thinking that,even though the story-line is FAR in the past-1960's-2000's,maybe the next zombies map could have something to do with Nuclear Warfare. We thought maybe the Nukes North Korea is going to test or has tested in the past,was made with element 115,to kill off everybody who was in the blast…

Hey all, its your friendly neighborhood Rift Runner, with a question I assume that some of you may have had: What if zombies became its own CD? The reason I believe that this should happen is because a good number of people in my local community will purchase Treyarch's games for zombies alone, which is a positive and a negative. Positive, because that means Activision and Treyarch are getting more money for a single aspect of the game. Negative, because that means that there are wasted parts of the CD that hardly become used, and the people have to pay more for that one aspect. Another reason I believe this is a grand idea, is because how quickly it exploded. …

So I had a dream, sort of jumbled, but at least I got an idea of a map. It was like a mix of a Hospital, Factory, and Science Lab. I just loved the dream, and it was really cool. I remember the Easter Egg achievement description, it was something like,"Advance to choose one of the three leaders" or something like that. Strangely enough, the vril weren't in my dream too much. However, Samantha was. I remember there being a rusty bridge in the factory, with chasms/abysses on either side. I remember you had to actually pick up a navcard and insert it into a thing that looked like the machine in the campaign mission "Celerium", except the machine was rusty too except for the …

Hey guys this is a topic I though we could make and possibly find the missed easter eggs in previous zombie maps. I know we have searched the maps high and low for easter eggs but maybe there is something we missed. If some of you guys know some eater eggs that are not that famous maybe you could post them here. Thanks

Do you think that 3arc should put a multiplayer zombies ranking level where you earn XP while slaying some zombies In my opinion it would be great except for the hackers hacking their levels What do you think? Yes Yes Yes or No No No!

Hello everybody. My name is Naitrax, and I am a zombies addict. I literally have an unhealthy obsession with this god of a mode, going as far as simply purchasing an Xbox One because of the Early DLC, even though the popular opinion worldwide seems to be that PS4 is better. The Ranking System in Black Ops 2 is broken. I hear so many people whining about how broken it is, and how you do all this crap to get this and this just to lose it if you have a bad game. So I propose a change. This change came from multiple places, and the Challenge Box on Origins gave me a huge inspiration for this. However, this change is not in the way you think it would be. There are leve…

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.
