i think everyone is thinking waaaaay to outside the box ... remember the new characters are actors my guess is they were filming a 1930s era film and were set upon by the undead. the thing in the corner of the DIE RISE loading screen is nothing more than a film reel that has fallen on the floor.

It wont be set in the 1930s era ... but remember they are filming so there will be certain features etc that will make it seem like it is that era. For example, Treyarch's choice to place the classic round drum Tommy Gun and possibly other classic weapons. Maybe some of the zombies will be dressed in 1930s attire, as presumably they too would have been filming and in 'character' when they were attacked.

Exactly SageSmile I see it as being a similar opening scenario as Call of the Dead ... filming away, when suddenly they and their team get ambushed by the zombies. Only thing is is when is it set? This is a tricky one. However i believe it is set in the same time frame as GREEN RUN and NOT in the Prohibition era like everyone thinks. The 4 characters ALL play mafia/gangsters, they are filming a 1930s style film yet they are not in the 1930s! As to the colour of the eyes, my guess is Maxis takes over. Seen as Sams zombie eyes were orange, Richtofens were Blue ... it seems only logical that the only person left that can control them is Maxis. (Seen as Sam is not in control, and Richtofen's only rival is Maxis). Again just thoughts and ideas but it makes sense ... no?

Arent we all forgetting something? Remember in the DIE RISE loading screen was the, what looked like, a film reel ... could it be that MotD is in-fact set in a similar time as Call of the Dead (2013ish)? Could it be that The Alcatraz 4 (the new characters) were filming (like Robert England, Michael Rooker, Danny Trejeo and Sarah Michelle Geller)? In response to the Golden Gate bridge, it doesn't look to be under construction ... rather it has been partly destroyed. Just a few ideas and pointers.
