  1. So, I have a few pet peeves. No mic players, in my experience, are rarely worth it. Yes, it's discriminatory, but inevitably when I get in a game with them, they are the one who does dumb stuff the whole time. I was in a grief game with a guy who knew the emp trick, and used it on his own team. I wasn't worried about hitting the box, except he got emp's first go, and emp'ed his own team. Of course, I was taking a risk not buying the m14, but I'm good enough to live with anything on round 3. His emp cost me the only money I had, and since you can't throw an empty 1911, I was weapon less. He did it to another guy, so we bought m14's. We trained up and took our trains to him. After he went down, we hit the box. Unfortunately, I lost my rpd because somehow he got emp again, and emp'ed the pack-a-punch in a later round, but my upgraded hammer saved my butt. Ultimately, we just let him die. We lost that game though. Then there is the tranzit noob. So I get in this game with 3 guys With mics. We don't say a lot, but we agreed (3 of us) to hold one and run for the bank. The the troll begins. First, we can't get the fan blade for the turbine, and the last zombie is killed. Bad start, I know what's coming. Another guy agrees to buy the door, and the 3 of us take off. Of course, we get our 12 grand each, save what zombies we have, andi wait in the town while they go for the power. Of course, the noob shows up, uses his turbine to get jugg (I follow up), empty 50 grand into his hands, and he then kills the zombie and leaves. Again, I can hold my own, even without ammo on 3. We get the power on, and move about the map, get my perks and a turbine finally. I get to the diner and find to my dismay, he's put the hatch on the bus. He's not riding it, he just assembled it. I hit e box andi teddybears. He leaves in a teleporter. Another guy gets to the power with the box, and the guy (despite having a harm and rayguy) has hit the box so the guy got 1 hit (ballistic knife) and a teddybear. This process continues most of the game. He over hits the box, then waits for someone to move it. I buy m16 and tunnle train, and the Other 2 do something similar. So we get to 32, and we go to bank. Even the troll(with his 78 grand) heads that way. The 3 of us bank first, and kill the zombie, and the swearing begins. The silent troll begins a rant, because he's a "long way" from the bank. A few snide remarks his way, and I get an idea and train zombies in the apartment. He did get 10grand in the bank, but then I brought the train his way. The swearing and anatomically-impossible threats begin. He tombstones, so we go to the farm, kill the last zombie (after finally getting box guns). He again begins a berate, but then dies crossing the lava on the way to the cornfield. We bank another round, then kill ourselves... He died with 62 grand. Top noob, however, Guy with a mic, follows directions. We save a zombie and pull 15 grand. We all spot him 5grand ourselves, because he was so noob ish. He took e bus to town, and we patiently waited. (this was round 4, because he struggled recognizing last zombie before round 4 because they didn't run). So, we all go about our merry ways. He was a nice guy, and even opened the door to the diner when we went to get gaviknuckles. So we get our perks, and go for the box. This noob (and after this, he called himself such) places a turret while our backs are turned watching the box. All the jug in the world couldn't save the 3 of us...and of course, he doesn't pick it up before going for us... I did add him as a friend, but we only play halo together.
  2. It needs more info. What did they do to cause this? I see "emp by telephone (I assume telephone pole?) Was it pre egg? Post egg? Same game or different?
  3. The ladder respawns wherever it was first found, as does any build able when put in lava.
  4. There is a second vid by same guy with a little more detail (and I do mean little). I hate vids taken from phones or other recording my tv with a camera devices, because they're so easy to fake or to be something. Here is what I notice. 1. The timing lines up by seconds by the theater counter. 2. The counter between the two vids is different. It would have had to be 2 diff vids or incidents, or a very long, separate animation. 3. He looks like he's having a "death" animation. He doesn't die, but he does similar things when dying. 4. Why did he go there at all? I have no conclusion as to what this means, or if it's fact or crap.
  5. You know...what of green run is bigger...but only one expansion. I'm sure I won't be first to say it, but what about a verruct-like idea splitting up players, only 8 players. It's like this: you get a party of 8. You're divided up until pre-determined steps are committed by both sides. Then, both insert nav-cards (possibly needing one for each EE done so far, (kinda line needing CotD and Shangri-La). When done corrrectly, the maps and bus routes combine, and the parties get added bonuses (sharing drops, more help to high rounds, etc.) I don't know if the processors could handle it on larger maps, but what if you party up 8 people, and part of the goal of nav-cards is getting the party to connect e two maps. This also allows the two parties of 4 to unite and fight together and who knows...maybe an 8 man EE.
  6. It's random. Sometimes the sparkles are on the gun as its randomizing, sometimes it's on the box itself. it's inconsistent what will sparkle. Sometimes you get a beam from the tower, sometimes not. And only emp the box if the guy who hit it is an asshole...the result will leave his wallet lighter and his gun situation unchanged.
  7. I can confirm the xbox gives it for the same thing. I can open all but one door solo, invite 3 peeps, then they'll get it without spawning
  8. And do you troll the forums before or after knocking down the tower?
  9. nah theres 1 train in particular with the symbol right side up just the same as the turbines i hate when people who "scower" the map shut down a theory that could still have hope I wasn't scowering to disprove... I was investigating. The differences are listed, followed by my conclusion based in facts. On the cars I looked at that are right side up, the arrow is upside down. It may be something, but to me it looks like nothing because of those diifferences. If I'd thought it was nothing, I'd have left the thread alone.
  10. I paused the game in theater mode and used the no fog method to look at the trains. 1. Different background colors. Turbine is yellow, train is orange. 2. Different size stickers. 3. The train arrows are fatter. 4. The train arrows point up, the turbine points down. They're too dissimiliar to be connected. It looks good, but upon further examination I think it's another chase of the wild goose variety.
  11. That looks like an outhouse...which is what you fall through before going into power, ever hear the flushing sound?
  12. 1. Reza elghazi said "yes" the question was is there more...the examples was a second bus or rewards. The question was answered...but it is nothing we don't know. The nav cards are to leftover unfinished things, they serve a purpose. Here's the real question (which JZ and Reza haven't answered) "can we access the next steps without dlc?" It's marketing...play our game, not minecraft or halo. Let people know there is more, don't tell them what. This leads me to point 2. 2. Jimmy, Reza, and anyone else is going to tweet whatever keeps us playing. Why do we get demoted when we don't play in a few days? Because its marketing...it keeps you playing this, and not playing minecraft to halo. Following that logic, point 3. 3. Why would Treyarch stop the "I did the next step" trolls? Riddles and cryptic messages, while annoying, make things fun. We love the minimal chance they're right and the excellent poetry is loaded with good details. The trolls (who play the game too) get enjoyment out of watching those of us who listen to every move scuttle about with our Dr. Seuss riddles and getting published by egg hunters. Meanwhile, what happens every time trolls get believable enough? Egg hunting teams form, and more people play the game to "find it second"...instead of playing minecraft or halo. In short, realize its all marketing...and you will always see the logic. If JZ told us what we wanted, he would not get what he wanted...us playing COD, not minecraft and halo.
  13. Update is coincidence... They do this regularly. I've see people locked out from joining our custom games because the version doesn't match more times than I care to count. Nothing happened, just like the prophecies of the end of the world. Does Treyarch use leap years?
  14. Don't forget, several zombies yell "SAM!" when coming at you. Could he maybe not have gained full control? Perhaps zombies have some loyalty
  15. First, the pylon doesn't light up on solo. When I start custom games on solo I never have my tower kit up. Second, I heard this as Marlton yesterday...at least. Think I did. I was listening at spawn for it
  16. Reza elghazi said there is more. He didn't say that we could do it now, but there is more. That means it isn't finished...but it doesn't mean we aren't waiting on a dlc.
  17. On e announcer richtofen voice saying fetch me their souls...isn't there a mode in survival to put on hellhounds? Wouldn't that be where that voice is applicable?
  18. This is referring to the upgraded ballistic knife with the bowie
  19. Can anyone confirm the bolded part? I am having a hard time getting random pubs to cooperate with me Either way, have we scoured the map for any hidden switches ala the Der Ries flytrap. (For those too young in zombies to know, and those too old to remember: Der riese had a switch waaay outside the movement bounds of the map that could only be activated by hitting it with a PaP'd Sniper rifle.) That open area above diner makes me suspicious of any switches nearby One of Zielinski's new tweets makes me think that there is something at the top of the Diner that is special aswell. Here it is: jimmy zielinski jimmy zielinski ‏@ZielinskiJimmy @josecha34156229 above the bar, then jump when over run...over to the apartment, and jump, rinse, repeat. "Above the bar" that is what makes me think that he wants us to try stuff at the top of the Diner. josecha34156229 asked him where he should go to make money. That was zielinski's reply
  20. Why is that such an impossibility? Maybe with black ops 1 where you buy each pack individually...but we have a season pass. Let's look at this... Who is just gonna buy 1 dlc? Yes, there will be a few who will not get 1 or 2, but most have or will get the whole thing and are already slated for it. So we build on...the casual gamers keep griefing and surviving, while we ( the hardcore researching egg-hunting crazies) keep going through tranzit as it gets larger and larger.
  21. Do we know if it's morning or afternoon. Given we know it's "day" (since the sun is out) perhaps we should focus the clock talk on where the sun is. If we go from the bus station to the diner, the sun is angled to the right. this means that if it's am, the sun is rising, and the diner is east. If its pm, then the diner is west. Either way I don't think the diner is 12(or north). On a random note, does the obelisk cast a shadow? I'm thinking sundial though I don't know where I'd go with it...
  22. Am I the only one who sees the constellation Orion here?
  23. The beams of light are common on the lampposts you use for the emp grenades on. They stay for 1 game, then are gone the next.
  24. I'm in. Hell, I might even take some money and buy a capture card if it helps. For the record, I have NO IDEA how to do any of this, but wherever I am needed, I"ll help. I'm a decent gamer on CoD Zombies, but suck at multiplayer. Halo I used to be badass, but due to lack of playing I'm only kickass right now. Just a thought, since we are a zombies website, has anyone thought about live-streaming zombies games and gaining sponsors who pay based on the performance of the players? I'm thinking something like pay a certain amount per round? Per zombie killed? Per point earned? Game is live-streamed and perhaps hosted on some Bigger-name sites other than our own where other players can watch and donate flat amounts or per round/point basis. Just a thought...
