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.

So I'm surprised to see no threads regarding the robot zombies in CoD Online. I realize it's only in China, though knowing Activision and their love of making money, I reckon it's only a matter of when we'll get robot zombies. I mean, I know it's just NDU and Verruckt reskinned(With perks added to Nacht) and zombies replaced by zombified terminators. Still though, it feels fresh and it looks pretty cool too. Also introduces 4 new characters, unfamiliar with the names at the moment. All they would have to do is remove the 12 round max obviously since 12 rounds is much too short. For those wondering why China has robot zombies as opposed to actual zombies like we h…

Hey guys, just a theory on what I hope will be included in the next DLC or future maps. Okay, I am a firm believer in buying perks. They are quite useful and save your butt in many situations. I would like to see a buildable perk machine. Imagine if you had to choose between PhD Flopper and Jugg (or any other perk thats up to 3arc)? Now this would be only one perk machine but two possible outcomes. Parts: Base. Found by the table. Same for both machines. Power Supply: Maybe a wire? Found in a room with a hole in the ceiling. Jump to pick up. Same for both machines. Actual Machine. Now there is no location for this because I do not know which perks would be wh…

I noticed it looks a bit off. I drew lines connecting ends to end of the text and pictures. They are even paralleled correctly http://i.imgur.com/irF2qy0.png Its the best i could do but, still even without the green lines it just looks way off. I also took the line below induction and it doesn't line up with the lines in the map. http://i.imgur.com/ZaPudSV.png Pro. made posters would not have mistakes like this

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…

So today I was just replaying the campaign mission Odysseus when I came across a few things that may be hints that it could become a future zombie map. I know from the Black Ops campaign that they do drop the smallest hints in the campaign about zombies DLC, like the mission Ascension resembles. You could look off in the distance and see a Cosmodrome launching a rocket and had the Mystery Box light shooting into the sky towards the beginning of the mission. Later in it, some scientists are burned by the gasoline of the rocket you destroy, and get burnt. They end up very closely resembling the zombies we saw at Ascension. Everything I'm about to put up is found in two cons…

i personally think that there will be a new changing group of survivors for the next dlc's because if you have been following the story behind the black ops 2 zombies it seems there is a lot of groups of people surviving and activating power all over the world.. so playing as new people for 3 dlc's and then in the final dlc playing as the original 4? sounds good to me? what do you guys think?

I discovered this and don't think anyone else has before, and it seems pretty important as a clue. The black blob in the catalog from the DICE talk background is a Flesh Eating Venus Fly Trap. The text says "FLESH EATING. Plants that will eat you? ? Larger ? and beautiful. 5454 Plants $1.50" And the number of it in the catalog, #5454, is the same number that is written on the torn out order form from the Moon loading screen. The Flesh Eating venus fly trap is one of the items ordered. They ordered 2 of them, item #5454, for $1.50 each! But they tore it off, as if they changed their mind about that item? Then it's put back in place on th…

The MOTD/SOE/Main story Connection [ Thesis ] The companion Video for the Thesis. Has all the pics in a downloadable form. Look for them in the description. Welcome back. Today I have a very special theory I came up with at work last Friday. It involves Mob of the Dead. Shadows of evil and how it would answer many questions we have about the zombies storyline if it can be confirmed. However the clue that made me actually want to dive deeper into the rabbit hole is one fact about Shadows of Evil. 1940’s. I’ve been discussing it with an old forum buddy known as Syphon. We’ve been swapping info and then we both came up with this theory together. There is also a vide…

Guys… We'll be hyped up for zobmie DLC come january… But… Then directly after we'll be looking for the reveal trailer for BO3 or WAW2 or whatever… Then we'll be looking for more zombie DLC… Then we'll get the zombies reveal teaser in july…. Then more zobmies… Then finally we'll be all ready for the real zombies…. Presumably… I really hope trayarch doesn't cop out and say: "We will be doing no more zombies" or "we're going to wait an extra year"… Because that'd be bullshiz…

I think a map in the dark catacombs would be sweet. Easter egg song from hollywood undead. And the 4 main characters go in and try to find lost secrets left by explores or scientist. With death ending tunnels, flashlights needed, screams and moments that make you jump and I don't think power would really work but instead have a power recharge for some guns and flash lights. Zombies could put the gate way to hell in it and other sweet things. i would like to see Tank and the rest of 935 scream in fear of what lays ahead. What are your thoughts?

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…

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 …

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…

What do you guys think the finale to Black Ops II Zombies, and possibly even Zombies as a whole, will be? Personally, I'd like to see the finale be at Der Riese (again) but in its entirety. I just like the idea of going back to where it all started. Plus, Der Riese is my hands down favorite map, and I'd love to see it get more attention in a bigger, better way. :)

So in another topic it was mentioned that when the Earth shakes on the loading screen, it only shakes when this asteroid passes over. So I imagine that this asteroid has a big significance in the map selection (it passes over when selecting a map). So I have two different theories that involve the asteroid. Theory 1 I believe that we may be given a chance to actually select a map from the asteroid. We will be able to move from GLF to MOTD to Nuktetown to GR to dlc3 and finally to this asteroid to pick a final map. The only problem with this is what would be on this stranded asteroid that appeared after we blew up the earth in moon. I guess the perks cou…

If you guys plan to bring back the old crew (Dempsey, Nikolia, Takeo, and Samantha), then bring back Ascension as well. Don't worry, I have a story if you guys are figuring it out... After the Earth got destroyed, The Crew traveled through the Teleporter in Area 51 and ended up in Ascension! The only problem is...they traveled to the past! This timeline was before Richtofen and Samantha, the power belongs to Satan! Incase you don't know what that means, the zombies eyes are RED!!! Dempsey has the power of leadership, Nikolia is still whining and arguing about Vodka, Takeo is looking for more people involved in Group 935, and Samantha is being followed by The Ant…

I think for a future zombie map they should have J.F.K., Macnamara, Dempsey and Takeo as the characters. Then perhaps for the map after that have Richtofen, Nikolai, Nixon and Castro. It could easily be explained in the story because their MDT's could have glitched when the characters on Five and the main characters on another map used them at the same time.

Does anyone have any idea when Treyarch will release any information at all regarding the next DLC? I can't find anything about the release dates of the posters for Die Rise or MotD, so I was hoping someone knows around when they came out. A month? A week? Are we going to get another replacers commercial? Any ideas or thoughts?

Big issue of the next game: What kind of weapons do we want? Do we want a plethora of new weapons like in BO2 like the Mtar, the LSAT, the HAMMER and ect. OR do we want to see more of the older weapons like the Hk21, the Thompson, the Double barrel shotgun, ect. OR: Do we want to see re-imagined weapons of the old? Such as an auto-matic Double barrel shotgun, a Multi-drum thompson, and a pressurized PtRs? I like this idea, because now trayarch can host the game in an alternate 1980s style gameplay where weapons were developed differently and different wars had different outcomes.. Like wolfenstein but nazis don't rule the world. Maybe communist? Tell me what …

Hi y'all! I was playing Der Riese and remembered how fun it was to not know there was a full easter egg and think the discovering never ends. That's what I want to see in the next DLC. Ditch the full easter egg thing for one map pack and give us something like Der Riese. Update more easter eggs and hide them in places where we will never find them for years. That would be a dream map. Anyone else agree?
