  1. If this map turns out to be future-based (which looks like will be the case), then perhaps we are getting introduced to a new group of characters? It doesn't seem like our oh-so favorite Green Run cast has any means of teleporting. May, just maybe, we may see the original four (well, minus Richtofen and replaced with Samantha). I put my money on a new group though.
  2. The only problem I see with this is that Nikolai is on the Moon with the rest of the crew (as where we last left off - who knows what's become of them). Perhaps you heard a different character in-game like Samuel or someone that mentioned the quote. In fact, I don't even believe there is such a quote similar to that in the audio files.
  3. Setting: Demolished city of Chicago - the Willis Tower Time Period: 1988 Country: America Characters: Misty, Marlton, Russman, Samuel Special Additions: (See additions) Special Boss: Dogs PaP Info: Turn on power, use FRG-Airave 62 near certain spot on top of the Willis Tower to create timed shock charge leading from the Moon. Drops PaP machine to Earth. Traps: Electric Trap, Sentry Turrets Perks: Juggernog, Stamin-Up, Speed Cola, Quick Revive, Double Tap II, Tombstone, Mule Kick, Phd Flopper Wonder Weapons: Ray Gun, Gershe Device, Thundergun New Additions: - FRG-Airwave 62 [Wonder Weapon that reverses gravitational pull on enemies, causing them to rip apart. Done via electric beam, can take down crowd of zombies.] - Links [small trains underground that will transport a player across the map. Zombies can break into tram.] I don't have any creativity in my bones, haha.
  4. You have to use a host like Tinypic, Photobucket, Imageshack, etc etc. Upload it, grab the Direct Link Tag and insert it between the tags.
  5. Please supply an image of this sign. I'm looking around with no-fog enabled and I see no sign anywhere between the said areas. Hugging the right side, you say? I followed all the way from Town up to the Tunnel just to make sure, and there is absolutely nothing - no sign, no brick, nada. I'm not saying that it's false, but something isn't right if I can't find it and it's nowhere to be seen.
  6. Just looked around in one of my clips with no fog. There is no pyramid in sight whatsoever. In fact, not even remotely close to any part of the map. Unless you can provide a screenshot of what you saw, of course. Also, where is this portrait of the "pyramid"? You sure you aren't mistaking it for the Tower of Babel painting?
  7. viewtopic.php?f=100&t=26010 This is how the ranking system works for the most part. It's not 100% official, but until Treyarch releases some information about it, this is the best guideline we have thus far. You can rank leaderboard as long as you are online. Once connected to Live, any and all stats will count in your again unless you encounter one of the following: - a player leaves your online match (disqualifies rounds but keeps stats) - Custom Easy Match is not counted to the leaderboards There is not particular amount of people you need to be in the ranks. Sometimes, your score + stats will not show until a given time. Sometimes, they won't even show at all.
  8. Hey friendo, welcome to the forums officially! I'm glad you enjoy this community, and I'm sure with your seemingly expansive knowledge of the CoD franchise, you can help us in the many ideas we post up. Don't worry about being a big-time poster; all we need is your commitment (AND BRAAAAINS). I hope to see you around! :)
  9. Welcome to the community friendo! I like your idea, although we've already completed the Easter Egg as is, it doesn't mean some elements to the map all aren't deemed useless. The whole story goes somewhat like this: the Tower of Babble is a reference to the biblical story, Tower of Babel like you said. In this story, humans only spoke one common language and were keen to construction. So forth, they began to create a tower to reach the heavens in order to make themselves known to God and prevent a diversification of their land. God, however, saw this as the absolute way of steering themselves from his wisdom, and confused their languages so they could not communicate with one another. To make conditions harder on them, he separated the people from the city all over the Earth. That is how diversification came to be (as a theological understanding). If you take the tower created into similar aspects of which the pylon resembles, the connection is not a way to take one person out of the Aether/replace him, however, it is more so utilized as a form of transferring energy. Note how Maxis forces you to use electricity for power, whereas Richtofen demands consistent 115. The reason behind the two different energies is simple - one would gain power against the other. Maxis can only communicate via electronics, so electricity would enable him to not only communicate more efficiently, but give him a steady source of energy (wherever he is at). Richtofen is in the Aether, and we all know that the 115 retrieved by killing zombies simply fortifies his power. The term "spire" is only used when doing the Easter Egg on Maxis' side. Richtofen calls it the obelisk. You are right though - a spire is the top of a church, which you can even see in the game in Town. I made this point some time ago where each "overseer" coins a particular term for the pylon where they see its role most fit. The spire for Maxis acts as a receiver, but the obelisk for Richtofen is a satellite. Maxis' intentions for it are unknown, but that is where the term "spire" becomes important. Also, the NavCard is not associated with net value. I know many, many people have come to this conclusion, but this is untrue. There is no net value anywhere within the game aside the bank (which also is not affiliated with the card). The other sites that Maxis mentioned are more than likely going to be located in different maps via DLC. We'll need to power up said sites similar to Green Run's. Paris, anyone? Keep up the awesome ideas!
  10. The fourth wall is an intangible barrier in which an object that is not a human entity reaches out to someone psychologically. Think of it as something that seems "alive" and feels as if they are actually in front of you. A perfect example is Deadpool. He is a now-popular comic protagonist that is self-aware of his surroundings as a comic book character and uses his dialogue and rather witty lines to make it aware to the reader. In other words, it messes with your mind.
  11. It's just an allusion quote; it reminds the player of Nacht Der Untoten immediately, so it's as if Marlton is breaking the fourth wall. Besides, he was probably not even born when Nacht made its appearance. And how exactly would he have worked on Nacht?
  12. This has happened to me an exasperated amount of times when I used to play Minecraft. What you can do is clear your cache on your harddrive. http://support.xbox.com/en-US/xbox-360/ ... stem-cache This will not erase your data or storage, but clean unnecessary clogs of information stored on your Xbox. This can help with getting your console ready to read a game properly.
  13. Is this the structure? Right beside the pylon, that seems to be an oil refinery. You can't access it in the map because of the trains, but you can see just a little more of the train just at the base of it. An interesting site, though.
  14. Another pylon? They're all across the map, some still standing erect. That is, what you're pointing out, yes?
  15. I would wait on it. The Season Pass is way too costly first of all. Soon, they will release Nuketown Zombies as a standalone DLC/implementation like you said. I guarantee you that it won't cost you $50 then.
  16. I think there is a lapse in the system's upgrade trigger. It's supposed to rank a player up once a certain time of day and minimum kill set is reached. Maybe Treyarch lowered the set amounts so it's easier to rank?
  17. It's really hard to grasp the idea that Green Run happens near 2020, and that Maxis' quote about the two vertices meaning is correlating the two sides to the Easter Egg. Those are incorrect on so many levels. But for the sake of the argument, let's take your theory into consideration. The Samantha Easter Egg [hypothetical] seems a tad unlikely since she is no longer in the Aether; rather, she is just as screwed as our original four. But I think that would be what we needed - the original crew. So if I get what you're trying to say, we would need not to contact Richtofen or Maxis, but rather the original four in some way. No where are they mentioned whether they are dead or alive. I don't know how you perform Morse Code from another planet, but it might work out. Easy mode is only easy because there is a reduction in the number of zombies in a given instance. But since we don't typically play that mode, perhaps there may be something in store for us. A nice little out-of-the-box idea, friendo.
  18. Very interesting...perhaps that will be our first DLC (technically 2nd DLC if you consider Nuketown Zombies to be our first). But Die Rise? That's too similar to our Der Reise...the background doesn't look too familiar.
  19. If it was seen at Gamestop, you can go ahead.
  20. The reason many people have abandoned the idea is because it would be nothing more than overkill for the zombie story. Though it would be nice to have a standalone game for it, we get the same amount of action, adventure, and hand-gripping moments in a small mode. Survival is what we've become accustomed to; who says there's no story in that? Of course it's more difficult since Tranzit looks to be our major interest over the other modes, but it's not fair to say they don't demand the same amount of attention as well. Besides, total up all the DLC (typically 4) that comes with zombies and it rounds about to the same general cost of a standalone game. Plus, things that aren't on zombies but in multiplayer and in campaign help us extremely to discover many things like locations, timelines, nation involvement, and various other elements.
  21. If one of the three missiles hit that general location (or any location in Green Run), there would be absolutely nothing left in the map. But since at least one of the missiles impacted Nuketown (as seen after losing the game in NTZ), the damage spreads to Green Run, tectonic plates begin to shit causes diverged roads, and there you have it - lava pools, cracks along the road, buildings and tunnels taken down. More than likely, the power building's pit diverged drastically because of an uneven surface or lack of stable structure. Not to mention all the weight that probably used to be there caused everything to simply collapse into a downward spiral of doom. I love it. :twisted:
  22. Hey friendo, welcome to the forum officially! The Tranzit section is rather quirky at the moment, but with your help (and various others of course), we can bring justice to the newly introduced game mode. Keep up the good posts; can't wait to see you around more! :)
  23. There should have been dialogue where the game says "The navcard was accepted successfully". But in this case, that means you would be the first to get it accepted. Of course, if you could re-create the event somehow by re-doing the Maxis portion of the Easter Egg, we can see hands on for ourselves. Not saying I don't trust you, but proof is widely appreciated .
  24. I think where many of us are getting confused is not because of the bus driver himself, but rather how to bus operates with him as the controller. Going off Tac's provided quote from Shooter, animatronics have been around for almost half a century. That being said, an automated robot is nothing new in particular in this time frame. What makes it a bit interesting is how to bus can still operate on its own. http://abcnews.go.com/WNT/video/car-fut ... s-17324387 This came up around September. I'm sure there have already been prototypes of it experimented beyond 2012, but if you go by this, then it's safe to assume that automated vehicles weren't considered operational as smoothly as the bus. What we know is that the GPS system on the bus is not working properly. http://www.callofdutyzombies.com/forum/ ... 36&t=25277 In the video, there is a quote about the bus driver stating an Error upon exiting the tunnel. There is a path blocked my sandbags that should be our actual exit, however, the GPS navigation system is broken and turns left instead of right. This error continues and forces the bus into a loop around Green Run. I wanted to take a brief look into GPS systems. http://infohost.nmt.edu/~mreece/gps/history.html The concept was originally used in 1964 as militaristic technology. What I find very, very interesting is this quote: Did you see what I see? If you did, then we both come on the same terms. The bus we have in-game is fully capable of navigating itself considering that we had GPS systems as early as 1964. This year has popped up so much in the zombies storyline, strange huh? The bus we love oh so much is not a normal tour vehicle; rather, a government-owned transport. Please take a look at the second link I supplied the post with. PINNAZ did a fantastic job pointing these out; what kind of tour bus takes you to certain hotspots of America, then allows entrance to government-official facilities? The answer is simple: this bus. But it's not your ordinary bus. A military transport vehicle, to be more exact, implemented a system that was recently brought up. Also, I believe whoever reads this quote also noticed that the first GPS satellite system is called "Transit". Resembles something awfully similar, yes?
  25. Primary Gun: Skullcrusher (PaP'ed M16) Secondary Gun: Mustang & Sally Grenade: Frags Tactical: Monkey Bombs Equipment: Zombie Shield Perks: Juggernog, Stamin-Up, Speed Cola, Quick Revive Melee: Krause Refibrillator (PaP'ed Ballistic Knife) Yeah, I'm more of the team medic whenever I play zombies. Strange, because I'm usually the last one to go down in the later rounds, yet I'll go down around Round 2. :P
