Origins
Witness the origins of Group 935, as an ancient evil is unleashed upon the battlefields of World War I.
CoDz Code of Conduct
Listed below is the Code of Conduct.
Please don't just read numbered points and say "I'd never advertise!" and skip over it, because there are things you may not realize are categorized as advertising, or anything else, that are and you might have already broken them. If you have any questions regarding this, please ask, and have a good time and be sure to follow the rules!
1. ADVERTISING [ADV]:
Rule: Advertising to other users inside the CoDz Forum, whether it be via a post, personal message, or profile/signature links, to buy or view any products, websites, or other service is strictly prohibited. Non-intrusive links in signatures to personal YouTube accounts may be allowed, but that is case-to-case and each will be reviewed individually.
Consequence: The infringing user’s account will be banned, as well as the IP address. Any post with the intentions of advertising will be immediately and permanently deleted.
Example: If you are a spam bot, a hired advertiser, or a desperate website/business owner, this may apply to you. Signing up and making your only post a promotion for your zombie gameplay YouTube channel is breaking the rule. However simply sending links to a fellow forum goer who wants to know where to buy a capture card is not breaking this rule, PMing your buddy a link to a funny YouTube video isn't, etc.
2. DOUBLE ACCOUNTS [DBLE]:
Rule: Creating another account when a a user already has one account on CoDz is not allowed. There is little to no need for a separate account. If you've forgotten your password and need access back to your main account, use the Forgot Password link. Should there be a logical reason outside of forgetting credentials for the double account, contact a staff member immediately with details of the situation..
Consequence: The secondary account created by the original user will be permanently banned given with evidence of double accounts. In addition, the original account held by the user will be temporarily banned as well. Using the secondary account to avoid a suspension/ban on the main account will result in both accounts being permanently banned.
Example: A user creates a double account because they've been banned. If that account matches up the original user and no case has been made to the staff about the reason for the double account, both accounts will be banned after contacting the user.
3. SPAMMING [SPAM]: Spamming is defined as many things, and all of them aren’t allowed. As a CoDz user, you should hold yourself to a high standard and use common sense when posting.
Duplicate Posts -
Rule: Creating a thread that discusses a topic that has already been brought up in another thread is generally frowned upon, as each user is responsible for finding the pre-existing thread and making their remarks there. Cross-posting violations (making more than one post of the same question/answer across multiple forums) is prohibited.
Consequence: The infringing duplicate thread will be either merged (with the original thread), locked, or deleted, depending on the situation. When dealing with two duplicate threads, the staff will sometimes exercise their own personal judgement with regard to the thread’s posts, to avoid conversations being broken up and posts losing their cohesion, as all the comments in both threads are merged and arranged by the date they were posted.
Cross-posting violations will be dealt with by deleting all cross-posted threads. Users are responsible for figuring out the appropriate section in which to post their topic. If you have any trouble you may ask any staff member for advice!
We always welcome PMs from the users!
Example: If two threads are created that both discuss the exact same element of a newly released Zombie Map trailer, they become ‘duplicate posts’, as they consist of identical, or very similar, material. However, if someone makes a thread about, for example, who they think the Pentagon Thief is, and then someone else makes a thread in which they argue that it is actually someone completely different, they would not be breaking the rule.
Moreover, if someone made a thread that came to the same conclusion as the first user’s thread did, it still wouldn’t necessarily break the rule, as long as they brought new evidence to the table (or reevaluated old evidence) while doing so. If they reach the same conclusion, then they will be merged, in which case the older thread will remain, and the newer thread will become a reply to the older post.
Post Pumping -
Rule: Any user that makes a post just to increase their own post count is considered disruptive to the community, and is interfering with the other members’ usage of the CoDz forum.
Consequence: Violations will be dealt with on a case-by-case basis - some users will be warned verbally by PM, others may receive an official warning, and posts/threads may also be deleted (which will make your post count drop again!). Repeat offenders will suffer a Permanent Ban of their account on the forum.
Example: If a user makes a post saying “I agree,” or “We know,” or something similar and they do not further the conversation or productivity of the thread, that would be grounds for deletion of the post. The specific details of post pumping are left for staff to decide case-by-case, as there are a broad range of possibilities, which are quite dependent on the circumstances.
4. FLAMING [FLAME]:
Rule: Posts, signatures, avatars, or PMs that are intended to harass, threaten, embarrass or cause the distress or discomfort to another member of the CoDz Forum Community or any other individual or entity is unacceptable. (For this reason, the emoticon known as “facepalm” has been removed from the forum.)
Consequence: In some cases, warnings may be issued, but flaming is likely to result in Permanent Banning. It is therefore advisable to always be respectful to your fellow members; this does not mean you cannot disagree with someone, but you do not need to tear a person down in order to prove your point, so be careful with sarcasm! The response “I was only joking” will not get you much sympathy.
Example: If a user says to another on the forum that they are stupid, dumb, illogical, incompetent, etc., that is an example of a user tearing another down, and is considered to be ‘flaming’. Even sarcastically saying “Wow, you’re a bright one, aren’t you..” or “Did you figure that out on your own?” would qualify as a form of harassment.
5. OFFENSIVE CONTENT [OFF]:
Rule: Using offensive language in any context is not allowed here at the CoDz Forum. We believe that our intelligent members can make their points and offer their contributions WITHOUT the necessity of vulgarities. Included in this would be racism, sexism, or any other form of discrimination that may end up causing the distress or discomfort of a user or any group in general. Along with offensive language, displaying or linking to offensive content is not allowed at CoDz. Please be sensitive towards others and how they may react to sensitive material.
Consequence: Posts, signatures, or profiles containing offensive language, content, or links will be edited and/or deleted by the Forum Moderators and Warnings will be issued as appropriate. Repeat violations of this policy may result in more severe actions, up to and including Permanent Banning.
Example: You can come up with your own examples for sensitive language, I trust we all have at least a few in our heads, but simply starring out a letter or putting a strike through the word does not excuse its usage, such as f*ck, sh*t, etc. An example of offensive content could be an avatar of the Twin Towers falling with the caption “Burn baby burn!” This is very offensive to many people, and although it may not be so to you, please respect the feelings of other users.
Examples of offensive links include Pornographic, Racial, Defamation, or any other derogatory content. If it does not pass our CoC do not link to it on our site.
6. SIGNATURES [SIG]:
Rule: A user’s signature may only be 5 lines high, 15 pixels high per line and 65 pixels wide per line. A signature must follow all of the above guidelines concerning offensive language and material, and also concerning advertising.
Consequence: If a user creates a signature that violates the above rules, they will first be contacted and asked to change their signature. If they do not comply, someone will change it for them. Particularly horrid offenses will be dealt with by staff in an appropriate manner.
Example: A “good” signature could contain a few links to some threads (as long as they follow previous rules), zombie round numbers, a small image, or something personal, such as a saying or quote. A “bad” signature would contain any annoying “flashy” .GIFs, or any content that would not comply with previous CoC rules.

Ok so someone has found the step after the ultimate staffs http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0_xVgTu37z0 So my question is do you think the ultimate staffs are part of the MAIN EE or just a side mission. See I would say side mission but there are things saying its not. For example in the video I posted above NO ONE at least that i know of has tried putting a regular staff inside the robot. If you have let me know. Anyway an example it is part of the main EE is the fact that, in his previous video. After you get all the ultimate staffs Samantha say STEP 2 ASCEND FROM DARKNESS. Now I am praying the ultimate staffs are not part of the Main EE for the simple fact. That this EE i…

So now that we know the EE has been completed, can anyone confirm that it can be done with 3, 2 or even one person (solo)? I hope there is a way on solo because I hate having to rely on other people sometimes. No offense to the general public lol but it's a tough map and I can foresee a lot of problems with this EE in particular.

Okay, I lost the post because I changed tabs on my ipad so I'm going to write this again in as few wor as possible! Robot = awesome, but how in 1914?? Consider NDU loading screen: What if its Maxis, taking plans from Group 935 near the end of WWII to construct the robot in 1914 (or before) because there's no point building it when they've already lost. He also makes the Mauser (I guess, from blueprints) This means Origins is set AFTER everything that's happened so far, even through in time it's set before. Edit: I know the cartoon shows him going to 1945, but that doesn't mean he went FURTHER back in time; thee blue stream seems to continue off …

Once you enter the room that leads to no mans land there is a build table with a map on the wall next to it.....I managed to knock it off when playing the other day and there was a hole behind it, it looked like there was a note stuck on the back of the hole but I have no idea what this is. Is it an Easter egg? If so what for :/

It's "Diesel Punk" WWI themed. This means there's great potential to see some classic rifles in zombie killing action. What are your hopes for historical weapons? I'd like to see the staples of WWI at least. The Kar98s, Lee-Enfields, Ross Rifles, etc. Maybe a Maxim Machine Gun emplacement or even a Lewis Gun? We know the original characters are returning, so there's always hope from historical weapons of all factions, right?

I literally thought this up in 5 minutes, so don't think I'm too serious on this. However, what if in another universe (the campaign one, which is tied to the Zombies one in minor ways) Nikolai was paid to "look" like someone else. That could be why he looks like Reznov in the map trailer. And maybe Nikolai encountered Mason? Idk, I'm sure it would do with the US trying to best Germany in WW2 though, and perhaps they implanted a device in Mason to hear voices, such as some Germans did. Weasel received this type of treatment early though. Anyways, I doubt this is true, but wanted to get this speculation out before tomorrow, so please shed some thoughts on this little i…

To everyone whining about this still, please get over it. Treyarch doesn't care about zombies at all really and they're going to do whatever makes them the most money and that's cater to MP and not zombies. Some of you really thought they would make a DLC where not even a quarter of the players would buy it? That would be terrible business for Activision and Treyarch. So please, get over that there is no all zombies DLC and CODz will be a much happier place. I should add in no way am I insulting MP. I play MP from time to time and while I don't enjoy it a whole lot, I know others do. Some of my friends love it. Remember guys don't get upset with each other…

ORIGINS UTILITY AND ATMOSPHERE DISCUSSION! Pack a Punch It would be a great idea where the Pack a Punch is in the Robot's head, you would have climb it to get there, when you get inside, he'll start to shake his head and you'll have a small amount of time to escape before he crushes you! Perks I'm 100% sure that ALL perks are returning, since it's the finale for Black Ops 2. Demon's Frost: Cost: 3000 Effect: Spawns a Frost Hound COMPANION every 5 rounds, this Hound is very useful,it bites on zombies a freezes them, if you press the action button on it, it will search for power ups, fetches a perk, buys ammo,…

Ok, I'm only putting this here due to the fact it is ALL about origins, concidering this is the map it started happening... It's weird, I can play origins for like, 30 minutes, then i get disconnected from the servers, then Xbox live it's self... This only started happening after i downloaded origins.... Doesn't happen in minecraft or portal 2 co-op, JUST origins... Is the amount of memory taken up by the map effecting how long I can play? Or is it just my internet provider being a jerk? I looked up some answers online and they said to change the dns server name manually to 8.8.8.8 secondary: 8.8.4.4...... While this DID help with internet connection in genera…

Ok let's just jump right in and do this: Round 1: Activate generator, get shovel, maxis brain Ect. and knife kill the zombies, do not shoot! Get Quick revive if you want... Round two-three: If you haven't already grabbed a double points, now would be the time to take the one from the chest, feel free to shoot and knife as much as you can for points. -If it's snowing check outside the everywhere if it isn't, still check everywhere, you're not coming back to these trenches for a while, I suggest heading towards generator 3 (Right foot), as that first room has A: Two spawn locations for the zombie shield, and B: Has the b23r wall buy get that and turn on g…

Hey guys, what is up. I can't even tell you how happy I am that all the map packs are now released. It seems for the last year all my friends have been concentrating almost entirely on high rounds. Our little crew was always a challenge team, and between us have held pretty much every first room WR, both in solo and coop. That was for BO. So now all the map packs are out, it's 2 years of challenges for us. Speedy triple panzer challenge. Rules are very simple. By round 5 you get to speed cola/generator 3. You are allowed speed cola, sticky grenades, an MP40 and an AK. You can't leave this area. Both doors leading out need to be open, and that i…

So i was thinking. Nacht was never confirmed to be in germany, and as some of you may know, in the trailer for origins, it shows a area that look sort of like nacht der untoten. So i kind of just brushed it off, but then i realized all the planes flying around, and it made me think how the very first soldiers from nacht crashed in a plane and went to nacht to fight, so maybe since so much time travel has been done, this happens when the soldiers from nacht are flying to wherever there going (my best guess is to verruckt to save peter) and they crash during the time the O4 that we all love are there. this wouldbe kind of cool, cause we could learn more about …

Treyarch gave us NML when they released their final dlc map pack for BO1 (Rezurrection) and it has been one of the best things about zombies till date. Do you think No Mans Land will be returning in our last DLC map for BO2? Leave your thoughts below. I personally would love to get this mini game mode.
