  1. @Monopoly Mac @Tac
    Great discussion guys. Mac, I believe I can explain how Takeo can both be a prisoner on the island + being in a cryochamber as seen in Der Eisendrache.
    It's quite simple, the note itself that tells us Takeo is stuck on the island is from a different universe. Namely the very universe where Takeo is on the island rather than being captured by 935.

    So in DE, Takeo was indeed put into a cryochamber, but the note that tells us otherwise was written in the universe where Takeo gets captured, which makes sense, and somehow due to all the time dimension travel mumbo jumbo the note made its way to Der Eisendrache. Making it look like we have Takeo at two different places at the same time, whilst in reality the note is talking about a different Takeo than the one captured by 935.

    That still doesn't address why Groph is having the same conversation with Richtofen after the fact as opposed to before the fact.

    It does actually.
    In the original timeline, Groph talks with Richtofen 1.0 whilst Richtofen is at Der Riese right before he betrays Maxis.
    However, in the Origins timeline, Richtofen 1.0 is killed before this conversation + betrayal happened, so therefore, his conversation with Groph never happened at Der Riese.
    Instead, it happened later at Der Eisendrache.
     I forgot that Richtofen 1.0 is killed after betraying Maxis. Still, his conversation with Groph never happened in this universe until the events of DE. Hence the "No, Maxis has already been dealt with." remark from Richtofen to Groph in Der Eisendrache. It's proof the original conversation was supposed to happen before the betrayal at the Giant.
    Groph specifically mentions that after the Giant fell he feared the worst for Richtofen's fate. Origins Richtofen then just plays the game along. Since he says exactly the same stuff that Richtofen 1.0 said, this is further proof that all this dimension shifting jumping causes the Origins Crews to have memories of their 1.0 versions (as stated by a cypher in ZNS). Like Dempsey mentioning he remembers seeing the PaP on the moon while that version of him never went to the moon.

    @Monopoly Mac ZNS definitely takes place in a different universe. Another piece that backs this up is the cypher that tells Brock and Gary (dudes from Shangri-La) died in a airplane crash after discovering Shangri-La. 
    In this universe Brock and Gary never got trapped in Shang and instead managed to tell the world of their discovery.

    Dempsey. 

    Is a F*** MARINE. 

    The idea that he drowned out of all of them is absurd. We need to abandon this idea.

    Why do crazy ideas present themselves to good threads.  The thought of anyone drowning in the INTRO of a zombie map is ridiculousness.  It is like, all of a sudden, people forget how to swim.  When was the last time you seen any military personnel not push forward.  Why wait on a capsized boat when swimming(New Mechanic) is faster. 

    I know it's a game and all but you wouldn't be able to swim that distance. You'd drown in seconds, no matter your military background or how good you are at swimming.
    The only absurd thing here is your reaction to an idea another user had. Mind your tone, @Stop Mocking Me0 @JJMFP

    Options:

    A: Deal with it.

    B: Stop playing Call of Duty.

     

    Those are the options. There is no "boycott" to succeed.

    C: Don't buy cod points.

    Seriously micro-transactions are only in the game because people keep buying that shit.

     

  5. Sorry, but this would never work.
    The whole point behind the Black Market is that it's all based around chance; hence why nothing is guaranteed and you can even get the same items multiple times.
    It creates the same effect when using a slot machine, you just keep throwing money at the screen for a fraction of a chance of receiving what you want.

    When you guarantee a weapon (face it, no one gives a shit about the other stuff), then people would simply save up their crypto keys buy a bunch of CoD Points, get all the new weapons, and never touch the black market again until new weapons drop.

    ---

    Also, let's say this system was indeed introduced, and let's keep in mind that Activision wouldn't want to see their profits diminish.
    That would mean you'd have to increase the price of the supply drops, to compensate for the elimination of the above-mentioned probability that's the core of the Black Market system.
    Some folks figured out that the chance of getting a weapon are <1 percent. or 1/100.

    That would mean that if you'd give players the option to buy weapons straight out of the gate, you'd need to increase the price of the supply drop by a factor of 100 to balance everything out.

    So, the price for a single guaranteed weapon supply drop would be 30 * 100 = 3000 crypto keys.
    Or about 20 000 cod points.

    You weren't a fan? I personally enjoy them. (imo), Gauntlet is great, Splash is fun, Skyjacked is growing on me (but the boosting has made the map much different to play), and Rise is meh/forgettable. How do you see the four?

    Not a fan at all. All the maps lack flow, much like the maps that shipped with the game. Which is surprising considering BO2 had such amazing maps.
    Splash is okay but it's waaay too big., literally Ghost-tier.
    Skyjacked is a poor man's version of Highjacked. Much like the other remastered 'fan-favorite' maps, you can't just put an old map in a new cod and expect it to be just as good if not better as the original because the new game plays nothing like the previous game. Same reason Nuketown 2025 was such a disaster thanks to the LMGs snipers shotgunners and pistol dudes.
    Rise plays like someone just slapped a bunch of random stuff together on a drawing board and put it on the most generic, boring setting ever.
    Gaunlet is probably the 'best' but the problem again is it lacks any kind of coherent flow to it.

    That's because Drachen is also plural for dragons. So depending on which article you use, and the function of the word in the sentence, the word's meaning changes. Generally speaking, in most cases, when the Dragon is the subject:

    Die Drachen = The Dragons

    Der Drachen = A kite

    However, Der Drachen could also mean the Dragons when it's in the genitiv form. So if you wanted to say: the wrath of the iron dragons, it would be der Zort der Eisendrachen. 

    So when people see Der Eisendrachen, they'll either think that Treyarch messed up the article, or that they're actually referring to a iron kite.

    Google translate translates "der eisendrache" as "The Ice Dragon" actually.  Which seems like it also would make sense??   The Iron Dragon would be Das Eisendrachen .   Any native german speakers care to weigh in?

    Unsurprisingly, Google Translate is shit.

    Eisen means iron. Drache is the german word for dragon. Since Drache is masculine, the correct spelling is der Drache. Or der Eisendrache.

    Thanks everybody who couldn't translate it properly and kept saying it was kite. The names fine and all, but Eisendrachen sounds cooler than Eisendrache.

     

    Wait a minute. Three rockets now. Well their sohuld be four, one has launched.

    They translated it correctly. Der Drachen = the kite. So der Eisendrachen would be the iron kite.

    If it was Die Eisendrachen then it would've said the iron dragons.

    Thank You.
    I'm Donald Trump. President,  no no, CEO of CoDZ. That's more my style.
    I like thinking big, you know.  I mean if you're gonna think, why not think big right? Yeah, science.
    Now I'm not here to start a fight, but have you ever seen the Batman and me in the same room together?
    That's what I thought, Obama.

  10. .... I really don't see how this is disrespectful.... I'm supporting my side of an argument. I'm not back-lashing anyone. If I wanted to be a disrespectful brat I'd do something to actually attack anyone. Truth be told, we were given the information about the data-vault months ago, and the last time we had anything similar to a data vault (the computer in BOI) we used it to obtain access to DOA. Far as I'm concerned that basically teased the mode's possible existence months ago, the proof being reflected by the high number of DOA idea concepts to arise in the past few months. 

     

    Jesus...  I'm being threatened with a banishment for nothing!

    Yeah no a 2 sentence faulty comparison reply insulting @Lenne's intelligence and post-pumping your way to the next zombification rank isn't supporting your side of the argument. The fact you ignored 90% of what Lenne said and come back with some irrelevant clown claptrap says enough. The data vault 'tease' is irrelevant, as is the "high number" of concepts. You can't excuse the fact you're spoiling stuff with "hey I made a concept about it some time ago so it's okay"
    The DOA related achievement is even hidden on the site, evidently because it's a hidden achievement in-game. Now don't make me waste any more of my time by telling you what a spoiler is again.

  11. Leaked or not, spoilers are spoilers. Use tags to hide them in your posts as to not ruin the surprise for our other members. It takes literally 2 seconds. 

    Is DOA really even a spoiler? Its like finding out youre getting a clown on your birthday,but you got hints of it months in advance. 

    Disrespectful shit like this is what pisses me off and these kind of posts are what gets you a one-way ticket off CoDz. When someone posts a valid complaint, show them the same respect they show you or don't bother replying at all. 

  12. To be fair, you can't even pre-order the Season Pass for last-gen. Why not announce it with the PS4/One versions? So I think it's okay to suspect that their may be no DLC.

    They've already stated that DLC content may vary on last-gen consoles.
    My best guess is that they don't even know yet at this stage if they can bring all the DLC to last-gen. So it's safer to not announce a season pass rather than to announce one and then later having to drop it and offer refunds because some of the content you promised consumers couldn't be ported, see AC: Unity.


    Same thing happened with EA's Dragon Age Inquisition; first DLC made it to last-gen versions, then the other two - which were way more ambitious in scope - didn't.
