Kudos to you!

Great way of sharing info and staying up to date. I've added a few minor things too myself.

Keep it up!

Don't want to be a buzzkill, but 1 of the 4 shown colors represents the map+mode 'TranZit: Bus Stop Survival'. This means that all Survival maps will have their own color (at least that's what I assume). Survival alone will be able to fill up 4+ colors.

I could be wrong of course, if the color wheel shows only the gamemodes. With the text below it going into further detail within that gamemode. I'm leaning towards option 1 though.

Jimmy's Treyarch's and Rez' rock pictures actually show the same rock. Possibly Syndicate's too, but hold upside down.

Syndicate is in LA again, so we can expect some more twitter trolling from those...

Just wanted to point out a few things you skipped or stated incorrectly...

- 232 matches played, 23 of those were on the map Bus Stop with Survival as gamemode.

- Only 80 downs in 232 games. That's 1 down per 3 games. Used to be impossible unless you disconnect/stop most of your games without a single down. Possible new gamemode that is NOT ended by downs? (Buyable end? Other ways to lose except getting downed?)

I think the elite stats were the player's overall stats - all the zombies he's EVER killed and all the downs he's EVER had

Yup you're right, my bad! Sorry.

Let's move on and talk about what we can expect in the next 4 weeks shall we...

Is Treyarch going to wait till the early birds start leaking all the zombies info or will Treyarch beat them to it with more official releases? Judging from Halo 4, Black ops 2 couls be J-tagged and played in hours after falling in the wrong hands.

I'm really hoping for some info on Grief mode and Nuketown zombies before it's all leaked. Treyarch did a good job hyping up their brand new TranZit campaign mode, but keeping Grief mode and others in the dark.

I suggest taking the trailer with a huge grain of salt. Getting to 100k points with 2 basic weapons and no perks is near impossible.

Treyarch likes to exaggerate a lot. In the Elite trailer uploaded yesterday they show zombies stats with 80(!) downs in a single game. That's Treyarch for ya!

About drop 5, I wanted to point out that the 'zombie hand' is actually a prop in Treyarch's studio, holing on to a power switch.

If you want to look for yourself, it's all the way at the end of the GTTV episode (@20:10).

Thoughts?

As you can tell from looking at the elastic bands and cables, they photoshopped it to show only a portion of this 'device'. The elastic bands and cables are currently attached to nothingness .

Really liking the idea of Flammenwerfer... using this device to jumpstart a perkmachine and buy a perk from it before the main power switch is on.

Mehh, who would get it? Or would be a last minute October to November pre order bonus or would every one who preordered regardless of what version they ordered receive Wave 4?

We've already seen that Gamestop doesn't have the exclusive right to give out BO2's preorder bonusses. 2025 comes with every preorder no matter what country or shop.

That's why im saying, it has to be something small to be GameStop only. Imagine the hate if something major like DLC or Elite came with GameStop only... :shock: Not happening . Elite premium is too expensive anyway to come with a 60$ game.

CoD Elite said they'd announce Elite info in September, and they didn't come through.

^Story of Beachhead pretty much... :cry:

Really never understood why Activision put such incapable developers/coders on such a promising feature. Either that or Activision never allocated enough server space to Elite, making it slow and causing a lot of downtime.

Either way, really a big miss on a feature with potential to blow away bungie.net and battlelog.

Any ideas for Wave 4?

Im guessing Double XP or Unlocks (Like prestige tokens).

Definitely nothing major like Elite premium or more free DLC.

The 'Jet engine' could run on combustion caused by combining 2 gasses (Avogadro's Law).

The audio you hear after firing the gun sounds like the zombies getting fried more than blown away with pure pressure (Thunder gun).

As you can see there are 2 gauges, the one on the right looks like to me it says RPM 1500 underneath the gauge which makes me think we can either charge this up for about 4-5 seconds which will release a menacing blast of whatever and kill zombies instantly, or we can go for a more calmer less powerful option but is better for keeping ammo.

On the left, you can see a thermometer with what looks like a '2k' next to it, it could mean 2000 degrees or it could be irrelevance to the thermometer.

We also see a 1K over the green bar, and another 1K next to a red button which i haven't circled.

It doesn't say 1500RPM but RPM x1000, meaning that the 10 - 80 represent 10.000 - 80.000

RPM. That's a lot of rounds...

Spoilers work fine for me.

Why hello there!

Anyways on topic:

Tower of Babble sounds like the main EE to me. It gives you 75G just like the previous EE's did on Moon etc. Picture below shows where I think the tower is located.

I think that Green Run is just the name of the facility we see in the trailer. Could also be the name for one of the EE's of course. Wiki link!

Acquiring 'your tombstone' only gives you 5G, I really think its just a basic task, possibly a buy-able one (perk?) at the facility.

The 4 equitable item achievement has a table as an image, which would be a workbench then? We've seen one in the trailer.

Not sure if this is actually confirmed by Activision. But if so, we can finally discuss it!

I suggest putting the list in a spoiler dropdown or add an alert to the thread title, its a pretty big spoiler for Campaign and Zombies.

I'll wait for a mod to give the green light before I go on with discussing this .

The girl is from the poster we got!

Hah yea forgot to add that! Thanks.

Added numbers for convenience.

1.) Badass female redneck trucker wearing a trucker cap.

2.) Geeky office clerk all suited up with tie and watch.

3.) Adventurous old guy in shorts, boots and a vest.

4.) Older black guy with balding grey hair and a shiny necklace.

Pretty sure character 1 (Redneck girl) is the girl from the poster. I don't think its Sam nor Sophia though. The crew is most likely 4 fresh strangers trying to beat the zombies.

Now I've noticed people comparing character 2 (The Geek) with the actor/director Fisher Stevens.

Plausible theory to me, but that would mean we should be able to link the other 3 characters to actual people too right?

I'll take a long shot by saying character 3 (Adventurous old guy) looks a bit like Harrison Ford.

Again, a pretty far fetched guess, basing mainly on the theme of actors/directors started with the Fisher Stevens comparison. They never worked on a movie together, so that doesn't help either.

I just pointed out the Red trucks because it caught my attention after the discussion earlier this week about the Nuketown truck.

Anyways, back on topic!

I made this thread mainly to discuss 3 things I noticed in the trailer.

1.) A Tower(?)

Possible EE related hidden location? Or the PaP accessible from all 5 locations?

2.) Missing Tombstone

The arrows point at the exact location where the 'Tombstone' was in the teaser picture, but now its gone. Does this mean it's dropped on death? Or possible the new Grief Mechanic Lamia hinted at in this interview? Drop a stone to block off the enemy team in the 4z4 mode?

Standard elements like blocking passages seem to be on the docket to make the other team's life harder, but Lamia says there are "new mechanics exclusive to this mode" that players can employ to grief the other team with. When pressed for details, Lamia wouldn't budge on what those elements are.

3.) Guns

Looks like a mix of Black Ops and Black Ops 2 guns. Certainly can't relate them all to just Black Ops 2 multiplayer weapons. More gun pictures in the Album: http://imgur.com/a/2ErBI.

We get 5 maps though, that is a lot more than we had with Black Ops. I love the post-nuke setting it's in, and Nuketown Zombies might bring a completely different vibe that you want.

Wasnt it confirmed that after this set of Tranzit maps the Original Four continues on future maps?

I wonder what is this truck doing... Maybe Nuketown is the missing part of the map, and you can use trucks instead of the bus, but they run out of fuel?

Honestly? I think its Treyarch being a bit lazy on the design. The cars we see in the trailer are the same too in many parts of the map, and even in Black Ops.

Examples:

I went through the trailer frame by frame and took out 30 useful frames to discuss!

For convenience I placed them in an album on Imgur.com so this thread stays clean. You can pick out a single image and embed it here if you want to discuss it.

Album link: http://imgur.com/a/2ErBI

The 2 major things that others might've not mentioned yet at all are the missing Tombstone and the mystical Tower on the map. The rest is mainly basic stuff most of you guys noticed or Guns.

Im open to any changes that need to be made to the screenshots. Especially the Guns are wild guesses sometimes.

Discuss! :D

There's a bunch of you saying it ends RA... Having looked at the image as closely as physically possible, I think it ends LA, as in COLA. Tombstone Cola perhaps? A new perk? And I know there is someone saying constantly 'it's not a perk', but that would count as a leak and it would've been removed already if that were the case. I therefore still think it is possible that it is a perk.

Just hours to go guys! How excited are you all right now? :twisted:

-Jolteon

It always looked like ORA to me, with only the first letter missing. Facepalming at the moment that I never thought of it being OLA instead. COLA makes 100% sense for me now great find!

So this is 10AM Pacific time / 1PM Eastern / 6PM UCT / 7PM Central European.

Cant wait!
