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.

Alright, so we heard Dr. Maxis clearly state the nevada base (Area 51) has more element 115 back on Der Riese during the radio message found in the underground alleyway area. The coordinates heard right before Peter's message on SNN also point to areas surrounding Area 51. People have hoped for Area 51 since Der Riese and I'm one of them. Any other takers?

So there's been hints of a "Paris" map all the way back since "Der Riese" and the notice board pics cuz there's pictures of Ascension and i think "Five" But don't quote me. I've heard from MrDalekJD that they scheduled "Paris" for BO1 but in the last three weeks before Rezurrection's release they changed it to Moon, giving the fact there was a month gap between Annihilation and Rezurrection that would make sense. Also, the Map selection on Zombies is a FULL globe, so there's definitely gonna be maos in other countries, and giving all the previous things i've mentioned, there's an ample opportunity that Paris will be one. Also, what other connections to other wo…

I don't know about anyone else, but when I first saw the leak, I thought Die Rise sounded more like Der Riese than High Rise. This is probably me thinking in context with Zombies, but did anyone else see this relation too?

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.

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…

Well now we know the theme of Black Ops III is twisted and dark future with super soldier enhanced with robotics and other advanced tech. It is quite safe to say zombies will follow such a direction with guns, abilities ect. Sure they could do all the guns, assets, etc. specifically for zombies and make it take place in another era but I highly doubt it. So in World at War the oraginzation in power of zombies was Group 935 working for Nazis. There were also Americans working with this mysterious element 115 in WW2 but we didn't know much about them at the time. Then came Black Ops. We saw the downfall of Group 935 and Cold War and how Majestic 12 took bigger steps in th…

Hey Guys, I have seen a few guys and gals talking about having content as part of DLCs. Guns and stuff. I can't stress how strongly that this is a bad idea. Zombies mode is meant to be simple. Each and every game you start the same way. There should be no way of starting with anything extra, be it via a purchased weapon or as a result of your ranking. The point is that a brand new player, can get to rank 1. If you start introducing different weapons for those that spend, that just goes out the window. If you introduce this, you will ruin zombies for multiple people. Unless it's done within custom matches, maybe that would be fine. I have friends …

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.

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…

Black ops 2 brought in the feature to give weapons a random attachment, but made it only work on 2025 weapons for canon's sake. Seriously screw that, in the next game pap should respin any gun, and you should be able to choose your attachments. For example: Press X then A for acog, X then B for rapid fire, X twice for no attachment, and X then Y for reflex. That was just an example, and i dont think it should outright tell you, so you have to experiment to see what each weapon gets from which button. Furthermore I feel like the pap on its own is great... Until about round 30. And i know loads of people feel the same way, so some sort of machine or way to upgrade furt…

In every World at War, Black Ops 1, and Black Ops 2 Map what was "the first priority"? POWER....Electricity to power the perk machines, pack a punch, the map. The towers have been present since World at War. Go Play Natch go to the very far window in the box room....what do you see a tower. Shi No Numa there is a tower outside....TranZit there is a tower.....Die Rise a tower....GG Bridge I consider a tower. All of Black Ops 2 the new perks have been related to resurrection. Who's Who, Tombstone. Then afterlife in MoTD. But I have a theory to what the outcomes of both Richtofen and Maxis's final EE in Map Pack 4 will be. Maxis: You indeed resurrect Dr. Maxis! That he is no…

Started browsing the forum in... '09, I think? Been a while. Over the years, I've seen CoDz thrive -- and I've seen it decay. This declination in quality came directly from Treyarch -- and started with the release of Ascension (early 2011). Overly grandiose easter eggs are not what lured me in - I liked the small stuff. So did the rest of the adult community. When the focus shifted from small hints (radios, notes) to story quests of large proportions, the adult community started tuning out -- and the kiddies arrived. CoDz used to be centered around analyzing radios/images/codes, and that's what built up an adult community. That's what kept the site active from De…

I hope the next 2 map packs are epic and I hope the last dlc is all zombies with 5 new maps and I also would love it if they drop single zombie maps like they did with the micro downloads for mp I wouldn't even mind buying every map from waw and Bo if they were micro dlc I want to see this wholemap filled up because we're goingtohaveto wait until November 2014 for black ops 3 that's a little over a year from Bo2 final mappack :-( that's going to be a long wait so I'mpraying they fill this whole globe with maps what do you guys think they are goingto do

Are the Gatekeepers Vril-Ya?
by Guest- 1 reply
- 2k views
I believe there is a lot of confusion as to just who and what the Ancient Order of the Keepers are. Especially the Gatekeepers, these guys: I have often referred to these beings be called the Vril-Ya. Now, that is fine and dandy but I can tell you for a fact that it is not as simple as that. There are many different interpretations of the Vril-Ya and I believe that for all intents and purposes, they technically are them. Notice I said "technically", because we have no confirmation of that and because it isn't that clear cut. We know from Shadows of Evil that we have had a lot of new beings introduced to us that are Treyarch's interpretations of monsters fro…

Okay, so we all know in the first Black Ops, when you take the first letter out of each map pack name you get FEAR. So now we get Revolution. FEAR R___ What do you all think it could spell out?

Remember how one of the major clues leading to Ascension was that at certain points in "Revelations" when you paused, it said Ascension? I dont know if anyone else noticed this, but if you pause it later on in the level, a little after the rocket launches, it says Echelon instead of Ascension. Any ideas on what it means?

For map pack 3 I think were gonna go back to The Moon/Area 51 but I think they are going to expand both areas make griffen station bigger and maybe a tunnel to another station or maybe you can actually travel across the moon to the dark side of the moon which was a big conspricy when we the U.S first landed in the moon and also expand area 51 more and I believe for a fact the O4 and Phd will be back for the last 2 mappacks I think they keep the N4 in tranzit and DieRise then they did the actors for mp2 as suspected so the only way they top mp2 is by bringing our O4 back to do thier sides of the easter egg

Create a perk-a-cola you would like to see in future map packs! Pictures would be cool aswell. I made these pics in MS paint so don't judge me. Switch~Swap Soda: Switch weapons faster, pull out equipment/special grenades faster. 2000 points. Grenadier Gulp!: Allows you to switch primary grenade for another special grenade. 1000 points. Carbonated Gassy Drink: (If Nova6 crawlers return) Immunity to Nova gas or monkey's jumpy-explotioin things, and walk through traps taking no damage and unphased. 1500 points. What are your ideas to propose? :)

Basically, Pack a Perk (or a another name that someone could think of ) is a machine which upgrades perks when you upgrade the perk it will cost you the same price as the un-upgraded perk's price,I think this would be a great addition as later rounds can get a little boring. these I think are logical suggestions for the upgrades for the perks: Juggernog: Faster health regeneration Speed Cola: Faster when switching between weapons, throwing grenades,knifing (kind of like scout pro),I don't think that faster ADS would be too useful. Quick Revive: When you are downed you have Mustang and Sallys (like solo) to help your team mates revive you (I Haven't …

(Please excuse any spelling errors and poor grammar) Hello, Codzies! Okay, how would all of you like it, if we were given an open world zombie map. This would probably be either like The Walking Dead, or Left for Dead. Instead of having to start a game, there would be servers that are always online. I would LOVE to see this. Also, this would take place before the moon Easter Egg. As much as the Easter Egg was fun for all of us, what we were left with sure does grind my gears. I absolutely hate this apocalyptic, devastated, hideous burnt wasteland we now have. I want to have it where it is like The Walking Dead. I want to see a world where a disease started, not…

Am I the only one who was confused at how (on Black Ops 2) the campaign team zombie maps (Mob of the Dead and Origins) easily beat the zombies team maps (TranZit, Die Rise and Buried) in every way? They were more engaging, challenging but not too challenging, interesting, thought provoking and most of all... Fun! This leads me to think, should the campaign team have more input on future zombies maps? They managed to create fantastic maps while the zombies team failed in that aspect. Your thoughts? (I'm happy to be back )

A lot of people have stated that they would actually prefer that the storyline be hashed and that future maps should contain no story whats-so-ever. I understand why people would say this: BO2 zombies was horrible. It was downright unforgivable…. But I really don't think removing the story is a good idea. WE LOVE the story, it's fantastic. Why drop it? That would mean the end of easter eggs, the end of richtofen quotes… It'd be madness… ' SO: I've created this thread to help find ways to fix the storyline: Some main things that must be dealt with: - The different endings: we either need to pick one and go with it, or find a way to satisfy b…
