Definitely something with zombies.

Well...at least I think it is. He says it was posted on BO2 page for about an hour this morning, but I don't know how much I believe that. It's pretty well made for a fan vid though, no?

How do you build hype for a game? Make sure more info about it comes out in the months leading up to the game. Make sure you don't let it all out at once. As you've seen with this year and in years past, normally details about different aspects are released in different months. Multiplayer info was released in August. It's been announced that Elite info will be released this month. Zombies in October. Nuketown Zombies was shown to give us a lick of the ice cream cone and to make us want more. And they didn't really release any info on zombies besides Nuketown being a map. We still don't know about "The Map", which I think is in Berlin, or anything about 4z4 etc. Lots of details to be released. Look toward October. We may get another taste this month, but it'll just be another teaser pic or something.

This is all my opinion of course.

I'm almost positive that the OP is talking about the short footage we saw that had the wallpaper from Sam's Room (Coming Home anyone?) and the other was the pic of the road and then pics of the Jerswy restaurant and such.

Maybe I'm reaching, but the Vigenere cyper was solved in the 1870s, but made public in the 1970s. Maybe our time is 70s.

Boom! Great job Death! That's it. Fits perfectly into what they've been doing on Twitter. I know it's disappointing that it's not a link to zombies, but it's still fun to play with.

If you want it that night, you should have gone into the store and preordered. Then you can go pick it up that night.

It could still be an anagram. None of those use the '. Add the ' in and we may have some good stuff.

No. I agree with Liam.

I've been looking at it but I'm stumped. Need some vets to step up and pwn this thing.

I always thought that was a Chinese man with the army man.

I agree. I think 87 is an organization or something. Maybe it's code for the maker. I don't know. I'm just not sure how 7th sons tie in since no one really has kids. I guess Nickolai has had enough wives to possibly have seven sons...

Those books were put in for a fun Easter egg to the map. My guess is this map will be non-canonical.

Well they said that they wanted to put zombies on the classic MP map that everyone loved. I assume that means same map as in BO.

I thought it was decided that the iOS version was not canonical.

Peter McCain was never proven dead...

Lenne, if you end up wrong, we won't make you eat crow. This discussion has been fun and interesting. Without opposition, we wouldn't have to come up with evidence or anything.

Don't get your hopes up Monkey.

As has been stated, I believe we're at the point where the sides have been made and the only thing we can do is wait to see if someone in the know will tell us. I highly doubt that will happen though. They never confirmed an end to Ascension's EE until CoD XP, so why would they do this.

Also, we aren't debating minor details. We're saying he looks nothing like Richtofen unlike many of the concept arts that have been presented who at least resemble the character.

I've been doing that. Even linked every dev to the convo. No luck.

If it's Richtofen, ok. Honestly, that's fine with me. I started the topic wanting to know who this is. If it turns out to be him, great. If not, then we have a problem. I promise I'm not trying to just ignore things. I understand where all of you are coming from, but I disagree with one point that someone made. I first looked at that poster and recognized every character except the man on the left and just assumed it must be Richtofen. After looking at faces, body builds, outfits, etc., I just don't see it. It doesn't even look like him, IMO. It looks much more like the CoDZL man than Richtofen.

If I'm wrong, fine by me. I just wish we could get some confirmation one way or another...oh Reza...

The other three seem pretty spot on to me.

What else did I ignore?

I don't like the idea of hints in the Pause Menu. That takes away the challenge.

And I think the word you're looking for is apostrophe. :D

The difference Shooter is that the CotD bit was a cutscene that WAS in the game. This poster was in no part of the game. Different things entirely.

Also, the scar I see in the poster is under the man's left eye(from his perspective). In the CoDZL video, he also has that same scar under his left eye. I highly doubt he came into shooting with that scar under his eye. He also is dressed almost the same as that picture.

Treyarch could be epic trolling us with this, hoping that this discussion would start. But they look exactly the same, probably on purpose.
