  1. Look how ironic, it will end up being people's break, because at some checkpoint the group can save, quit and reload. Not the most practical answer to breaks but... Also in case of matchmaking, if people are 20% in and someone is 30, do they go foward, back? Foward but no EE? Im glad we're a only month away to finding out!
  2. I was watching the first zombie trailer and i heard something.... Someone apears to say "right now..." And An undistiguished mumbling when it goes by the junkyard. My guess is the bus driver is also a tour guide. Factoid number two, the bus goes twice to the terminal in the trailers, once just the bus, the other with rails. So we can assume back and forth from stages. The terminal perhaps is a very central piece of the map and from there is a short stroll to places? So what i'm puzzled is how big this map is and how long will it take to complete it? Also if there are stages with a final boss, once you're done, what happens? It becomes free roam mode? My big question is, in single player, fine, you auto-save after a boss and could continue later, but how about mp? Do we have to finish the game at once? Can we save and continue minus someone, can we swap people? The map size and these questions will make or break zombies for quite a few people My guess is we'll have around 6-10 stops... Crop on foot to Farm bus to Junk yard both Bus station both Bar/bank bus Factory bus Church foot Cemitery bus Hospital/asylum teleports to Final place/governament facility
  3. I got interested in whats she's wearing on her left wrist/hand.... It shines!
  4. I'll bet with this last drop, we'll be able to give a proper Archie(rock&rolla) back-hand zom-beatch-slap on their faces
  5. Stitching it all we have 3000 years of sun/moon cult, with believe in transitioning between animal and human bodies, smart, crafty culture, wich maybe conected via the bear/shark teeth on the bald guys neck. NACA/NASA facilities, b-29 and atomic bomb conection, Vanevaar bush conection, a few weird, familiar names maybe even the origin of tanks nickname. The russian trivia that for plot thickening sakes maybe related to technological interchange between usa and russians, The explosion that ensures cleveland's streets are scalding hot, moon apocalipse scenario or not... Heheh Also vonderhaar twited something out of the blue about rock and roll, guess where r-n-r term was coined? Cleveland also hass some breakthroughs in medicine as the first whole body scanner and x-ray machine, first blood transfusion and, get this... Successful siamese twins separarion. Submachine guns, air plane (maybe bus) auto-pilot! First african american mayor (someone was complaining about not including a african american guy, maybe it will end this game) So, for me cleveland it is... How do you guys feel/think about that? Edit for political correctness...
  6. Last adition to my theory....the theory is easily trackable on wikipedia since all comes from there plus my conspiracy theoried brain... So, looking waaaay back up to 1000years Bc The following Early Woodland (500 BC – AD 100) and Middle Woodland (AD 100 – 700) is a period of increased ceremonial exchange and sophisticated rituals. Crude but elaborately decorated pottery appears. Squash becomes more important, maize occurs for ritual procedures. The first Mounds were erected, buildings for which Ohio is world-famous. The mound at Eagle St. Cemetery belongs to the Adena culture. Further mounds were found in the east of Tinker's Creek. Horticulture becomes even more important, the same with maize. The huge mounds concentrate much more in southern Ohio, but they were also found in northern Summit County. Some Hopewellian projectile points, flint-blade knives, and ceramics were found in the area of Cleveland itself. One mound, south of Brecksville, contained a cache of trade goods within a 6-sided stone crypt. A smaller mound between Willowick and Eastlake contained several ceremonial spear points of chert from Illinois - altogether signs of a wide range of trade. At Cleveland's W. 54th St. Division waterworks there was probably a mound and a Hopewellian spear tip was found there. The Adena were notable for their agricultural practices, pottery, artistic works and extensive trading network, which supplied them with a variety of raw materials, ranging from copper from the Great Lakes to shells from the Gulf Coast.[2][3][4] The Adena culture was named for the large mound on Thomas Worthington's early 19th-century estate called "Adena", in Chillicothe, Ohio.[5] [edit]Art and religion [edit]Mounds Lasting traces of Adena culture are still seen in their substantial earthworks. Once Adena mounds numbered in the hundreds, but only a number of Adena earthen monuments still survive today. These mounds generally ranged in size from 20 feet (6.1 m) to 300 feet (91 m) in diameter and served as burial structures, ceremonial sites, historical markers and possibly gathering places. These mounds were built using hundreds of thousands of baskets full of specially selected and graded earth. According to archaeological investigations, Adena mounds were usually built as part of burial ritual, in which the earth of the mound was piled immediately atop a burned mortuary building. These mortuary buildings were intended to keep and maintain the dead until their final burial was performed. Before the construction of the mounds, some utilitarian and grave goods would be placed on the floor of the structure, which was burned with the goods and honored dead within. The mound would then be constructed, and often a new mortuary structure would be placed atop the new mound. After a series of repetitions, mound/mortuary/mound/mortuary, a quite prominent earthwork would remain. In the later Adena period, circular ridges of unknown function were sometimes constructed around the burial mounds.[1] Adena mounds stood in isolation from domestic living areas.[6] Shamanism Although the mounds are beautiful artistic achievements themselves, Adena artists created smaller, more personal pieces of art. Art motifs that became important to many later Native Americans began with the Adena.[6] Motifs such as the weeping eye and cross and circle design became mainstays in many succeeding cultures. Many pieces of art seemed to revolve around shamanic practices, and the transformation of humans into animals—particularly birds, wolves, bears and deer—and back to human form. This may indicate a belief that the practice imparted the animals' qualities to the wearer or holder of the objects. Deer antlers, both real and constructed of copper, wolf, deer and mountain lion jawbones, and many other objects were fashioned into costumes, necklaces and other forms of regalia by the Adena.[12] Distinctive tubular smoking pipes, with either flattened or blocked-end mouthpieces, suggest the offering of smoke to the spirits. The objective of pipe smoking may have been altered states of consciousness, achieved through the use of the hallucinogenic plant Nicotiana rustica. All told, Adena was a manifestation of a broad regional increase in the number and kind of artifacts devoted to spiritual needs.[6] [edit]Stone tablets The Adena also carved small stone tablets, usually 4 or 5 inches by 3 or 4 inches by .5 inches thick. On one or both flat sides were gracefully composed stylized zoomorphs or curvilinear geometric designs in deep relief. Paint has been found on some Adena tablets, leading archaeologists to propose that these stone tablets were probably used to stamp designs on cloth or animal hides, or onto their own bodies.[12] Its possible they were used to outline designs for tattooing.[6] [edit]Pottery Unlike in other cultures, Adena pottery was not buried with the dead or the remains of the cremated, as were other artifacts. Usually tempered with grit or crushed limestone, it was largely plain, cord-marked or fabric marked, although one type bore a nested-diamond design incised into its surface. The vessel shapes were sub-conoidal or flat-bottomed jars, sometimes with small foot-like supports.[13] Following them, came the hopewell The Hopewell inherited from their Adena forebearers an incipient social stratification. This increased social stability and reinforced sedentism, social stratification, specialized use of resources, and, probably, population growth.[5] Hopewell societies cremated most of their deceased and reserved burial for only the most important people. In some sites, it appears that hunters received a higher status in the community because their graves were more elaborate and contained more status goods.[6] The Hopewellian peoples had leaders, but they were not like powerful rulers who could command armies of slaves and soldiers.[3] It is likely these cultures accorded certain families a special place of privilege. These leaders acquired their position because of their ability to persuade others to agree with them on important matters such as trade and religion. They also perhaps were able to develop influence by the creation of reciprocal obligations with other important members of the community. Whatever the source of their status and power, the emergence of “big-men” was another step toward the development of the highly structured and stratified sociopolitical organization called the chiefdom.[6] [edit]Mounds Today, the best-surviving features of the Hopewell Tradition era are mounds built for uncertain purposes. Great geometric earthworks are one of the most impressive Native American monuments throughout American prehistory. Eastern Woodlands mounds have various geometric shapes and rise to impressive heights. The function of the mounds is still under debate. Several scientists, including Dr. Bradley T. Lepper, Curator of Archaeology, Ohio Historical Society, hypothesize that the Octagon earthwork at Newark, Ohio, was a lunar observatory oriented to the 18.6 year cycle of minimum and maximum lunar risings and settings on the local horizon. Dr. John Eddy completed an unpublished survey in 1978, and proposed a lunar major alignment for the Octagon. Ray Hively and Robert Horn of Earlham College in Richmond, Indiana were the first researchers to analyze numerous lunar sightlines at the Newark Earthworks (1982) and the High Banks Works (1984) in Chillicothe, Ohio.[8] Christopher Turner noted that the Fairground Circle in Newark, Ohio aligns to the sunrise on May 4, i.e. that it marked the May cross-quarter sunrise.[9] In 1983 Turner demonstrated that the Hopeton Earthworks encode various sunrise and moonrise patterns, including the winter and summer solstices, the equinoxes, the cross-quarter days, the lunar maximum events, and the lunar minimum events.[10] William F. Romain has written a book on the subject of "astronomers, geometers, and magicians" at the earthworks.[11] Many of the mounds also contain various types of burials. Artwork Hand carved in mica by the Hopewell The Hopewell created some of the finest craftwork and artwork of the Americas. Most of their works had some religious significance, and their graves were filled with necklaces, ornate carvings made from bone or wood, decorated ceremonial pottery, ear plugs, and pendants. Some graves were lined with woven mats, mica (a flaky clear mineral), or stones.[12] The Hopewell produced artwork in a greater variety and with more exotic materials than their predecessors the Adena. Grizzly BEAR TEETH(as seen on the bald guy for instance), fresh water pearls, sea shells, sharks' teeth, copper and even small quantities of silver were turned into beautifully crafted pieces. The Hopewell artisans were expert carvers of pipestone, and many of the mortuary mounds are full of exquisitely carved statues and pipes.[13] The Mound of Pipes at Mound City produced over 200 stone smoking pipes depicting animals and birds in well-realized three-dimensional form,[14] and the Tremper Site in Scioto County produced over 130.[15] Some artwork went beyond the ordinary exotic, as Hopewell artists were expert carvers of human bone. A rare mask from Mound City was created using a human skull as a face plate.[16] Hopewell artists created both abstract and realistic portrayals of the human form. One tubular pipe is so realistically portrayed that we can tell the model was an achondroplastic (chondrodystropic) dwarf.[17] Many other figurines give us details of dress, ornamentation, and hairstyles.[16] An example of their abstract human forms is the "Mica Hand" from the Hopewell Site in Ross Co., Ohio. Delicately cut from a piece of mica, more than 11 inches long and 6 inches wide, the hand piece was likely worn or carried for public viewing.[18]
  7. It would be great if you could carry two or more diferent front attachments and they have diferent result, example the same basic hardware that supports a slow loading/acting powerful gun or a much faster, less powerful weapon.
  8. I think the light is a charge indicator and it will serve among other things to get the two perks before turning the power achievement.
  9. On top of those things, i was converting xp to numbers, wich was 2416 i was going to subtract 79 from it,but typing on google i got 2416b movement wich has something to do with a russian watch maker from the 1940s. Wiki trivia The Company also makes a 12 jewel, very accurate mechanical submarine wall clock that was in Officers areas on board, known to stay on time in a wide band of temperatures. It is highly sought after in certain collectors markets especially in Soviet Union items collectors. Usually Poljot watches are associated with the Soviet Space Program. But Vostok watches were also frequently worn in space by the Russian cosmonauts. Some of the famous Vostok watch users were the cosmonauts Georgi Grechko and Yuri Romanenko. This caught my eye as why that number would get me to these watches... Then looking into poljot, they bought their equipment via a trading called amtorq wich was a front for some russian organizations. The russians send 28 freight trucks to moscow full of machinery and parts! Being that close to the nasa doesnt hurt in the conspiracy theory... Wich theoretically can mean sending parts to russia/germany and help the plot to thicken. As for the shangrila i also believe with some its in agartha. When looking at the picture posted many times of the earth and their entrances, the right upper corner shows a similar image to the loading screen tornado and blowing it to the north pole or maybe back to agartha in a loop.... As for the shangrila mountains tweet i got two lines of thought, one, its in the shangrila map and not found, the other is that maybe its in the moon map and we can go to a diferent part of shangrila?
  10. I think what i have discovered can tie many things for tranzit, firstly i believe from someone from treyarch twitter pic its on cleveland, ohio. Look it up typing cleveland ohio bus terminal on google images. At wikipedia, at both state and city history a few facts puzzled me, 1940,NACA, forerunner of nasa, stablished in cleveland airport.... Hum, yummy.. Edit, guess if Vanevar bush isnt a chairman @ naca.... :!: Also theres a picture with 3 funny names between the 10-12 guys, they are the special comitee on SPACE TECHNOLOGY... edward R.(ray) sharp, j.r. Dempsey and , werner von braun the two first for the "coincidence" and the last for historical facts :!: I-X Center From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia International Exposition Center Address One I-X Center Drive Cleveland, Ohio 44135 Coordinates 41.39850°N 81.85312°WCoordinates: 41.39850°N 81.85312°W Owner City of Cleveland[1] Operator Park Corp.[2] Built 1942 Opened 1985 Enclosed space The International Exposition Center, also known as the I-X Center, is a convention and exhibition hall located in Cleveland, Ohio,[2] adjacent to Cleveland Hopkins International Airport. The 2,200,000-square-foot (200,000 m2) building includes over 1,000,000 square feet (93,000 m2) total square feet of exhibition and conference space,[3] making it one of the largest meeting, convention, and exhibition centers in the United States. The diverse show schedule includes public events featuring one of the country's largest boat shows, Trade Show 200 events, banquets and meetings attracting over 2 million visitors each year. Originally located within Brook Park, Ohio,[4] the building and 90 acres (36 ha) of neighboring land became part of Cleveland in a 2001 land swap that sent most of the NASA Glenn Research Center to Brook Park.[5] Contents It was built in 1942 as a General Motors-operated factory and was used to build bombers during World War II as the Cleveland Bomber Plant. For a time, it built the wing assembly for the B-29 Superfortress, then the experimental XP-75.[2]THE TWO MOST NOTABLE B-29's are the Enola gay, and Bockscar, carriers of little boy and fat man A-bombs!!! It later served for many years as a tank factory(TANK DEMPSEY nickname perhaps?) :!: .[4] The M41 Walker Bulldog, M56 Scorpion, M114, the MOG Howitzer, and the M551 Sheridan were built at the facility.[2] Former employees of the tank plant reported that there were at least two, maybe three basement levels, of course now they are classified. One basement had a large pool in it for testing water-tightness of production tanks. Current security personnel agree there is more than the one basement level to the building, but will not confirm exactly how many. It was vacant from 1970 to 1977, when it was purchased by Park Corp. with the intention of converting it into an exhibition hall. It re-opened in 1985 as the I-X Center. The Park Corp. sold the building to the City of Cleveland in 2001, but continues to lease and operate it.[2] In 1990, the I-X Center was used as a temporary home for North Olmsted High School. On September 16, 1990, two students had set fire to the front of the high school, causing significant damage. The building's 125-foot (38 m) high ferris wheel premiered at the 1992 Greater Cleveland Auto Show. At the time it was the world's highest indoor ferris wheel.[6] Today it is a centerpiece of the annual IX Indoor Amusement Park.[7] [edit]2008 expansion Pretty cool huh? Until, Cleveland East Ohio Gas Explosion occurred on the afternoon of Friday, October 20, 1944. The resulting gas leak, explosion and fires killed 130 people and destroyed a one square mile area on Cleveland, Ohio's east side. [edit]The disaster At 2:30 p.m. on the afternoon on Friday, October 20, 1944, above ground storage tank number 4, holding liquefied natural gas in the East Ohio Gas Company's tank farm, began to emit a vapor that poured from a seam on the side of the tank. The tank was located near Lake Erie on East 61st Street, and winds from the lake pushed the vapor into a mixed use section of Cleveland, where it dropped into the sewer lines via the catch basins located in the street gutters. As the gas mixture flowed and mixed with air and sewer gas, the mixture ignited. In the ensuing explosion, manhole covers launched skyward as jets of fire erupted from depths of the sewer lines. One manhole cover was found several miles east in the Cleveland neighborhood of Glenville. At first it was thought that the disaster was contained, and spectators returned home thinking that the matter was being taken care of by the fire department. At 3:00 p.m., a second above-ground tank exploded, leveling the tank farm. However, the explosions and fires continued to occur, trapping many who had returned to what they thought was the safety of their own homes. Housewives who were at home suddenly found their homes engulfed in flame as the explosion traveled through the sewers and up through drains. The following day, Associated Press wire stories contained quotes from survivors, many of whom were at home cleaning in preparation for the coming Sabbath. Survivors said that within a split second after the explosion, their homes and clothes were on fire. Cuyahoga County Coroner Dr. Samuel Gerber estimated that the initial death toll stood at 200; however, Gerber was quoted in newspaper wire stories stating the magnitude of the fire and the intense temperatures had the power to vaporize human flesh and bone, making an exact count impossible until weeks after the disaster. The final death toll was lower than the coroner’s initial estimates. The toll could have been significantly higher had the event occurred after local schools had let out and working parents returned to their homes for the evening. In all over 600 people were left homeless, and seventy homes, two factories, numerous cars and miles of underground infrastructure destroyed. Following the explosions and fires, East Ohio Gas worked to assure the public that the destroyed plant held only 24 hours worth of gas for the city. Many families living in the area not only lost their homes, but stocks, bonds and cash, which many kept at home. Estimates for destroyed personal and industrial property ranged between $7,000,000 and $15,000,000. The explosion also had a long range impact on the natural gas industry. Until the disaster, above ground storage of natural gas, used as fuel for homes, office buildings and factories, was a common sight in cities across America. Following the disaster, utility companies and communities began to rethink their natural gas storage systems, and below ground storage of natural gas grew in popularity....
  11. Stop mocking me0, go to a coke vending machine and listen to the distincive sound it makes when the can rolls out, i'm not mocking you, hehehe
  12. Pentagon is a five point geometric form, hexagon six... In the meantime i looked at treyarch's twitter and i'm betting they are showing a new perk (unnamed and unheard of effects) with their current pic Btw thanks Lenne, will do.
  13. I think its a home-made-ish turbine with maybe an Afterburner? Could be even a good name for it... PaP called plasma something? Effects similar to the thunderweapon also meaning it doesnt kill after an x amount of z people
  14. Hey guys, just joined because i believe some things were missed, firstly pentagon shaped icons are perks and i assume hexagonal shaped are zombie levels. (Not sure if anything new so far) Secondly, waltz is a perk since at the end of the tape is the noise of a can dropping in a vending machine. Imo, its a sort of staminup that increases speed maybe by 3/4(waltz steps) or some other tempo of other waltz styles. Third, that power power power video is the turbine wonder weapon loading.... Forth, how many charachters did people counted? 4 or 5? I saw 5... Lastly, the bus station from cleveland, does it fit at all in any theories why we'd be in ohio? Obvious apologies if this has been pointed out or its in a wrong topic/sub forum
