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.

I was rewatching the trailer and putting together in my head some of the map layout. You can see the path the tank takes, and it looks like at one of the stops there is that big temple-like site. Here are 4 screenshots of it (you can only see 2 in this forum unless you open the image directly): Image Link: https://www.evernote.com/shard/s244/sh/ ... 3%20PM.png Things that are interesting to me are the glowing blue interiors of the pillars surrounding the site, the power/electricity that is shooting up from it into the clouds, and the detailed runes like in the Origins teaser text on the floor of the site. So is this a Vril-ya landing site? Did the…

Hi! I just wanted to create this post to see what you guys are thinking about the new black ops 2 zombies map 'Origins'! I personally think that the map will beat all of the maps, so far in Black ops 2, and will (hopefully!) get me back to zombies!! Lately I think that the map packs they have been releasing have been mediocre, but this one looks EPIC! I have a link here to a video that analyses the map origin, if you want to you can watch it and tell me what you think of the map after that: http://youtu.be/BWfF9Qj_yWI Thanks For Reading! -Flux

Hello,Marko here bringing you another thread(No,really?).This time,I'll try to express my ideas of how I think the map might be,and the things it might have.It will be a "big" read,but I'm almost sure it will worth your time.Anyway,let's not waste any more words... Map What I'll talk about here is simple.Very simple.We all know "Origins" is the Game Mode,right?So,what I'm thinking right now,is that the map will be called Le Tombeau.You know,almost everyone talked about the map being it(including the infamous PTG),and it makes sense now.The ancient ruins they're going to give us might be this "Tomb".Maybe a Alien/Vril tomb.The mystery involving this place will…

What i'm thinking is, to make things line up a tad bit, there is a teleporter in Origins. Now you remember when you get zapped back into Kino where there's a chance that you get throw into one of Sam's rooms? Well I think they could do something similar like that, except they be little inserts of WaW maps. It'd be a nice reference and make some sense that they CAN time travel into previous locations. And would add speculation of whether not Moon will return to further the O4's story in BOIII or if (I MEAN IF) they release another DLC map pack. (IF IF IF IF).

Alright so, i'm new here, and will probably get shot down but I have a theory for the Zombies wrap-up storyline. Well, if you know about the story thus far you know that Maxis won the battle for the Ether in the Buried easter egg against Richtofen and it turns out HE was the "bad guy" so i'm thinking it wouldn't be too far fetched if Maxis was able to shift his consciousness back in time (To WWI where Origins takes place) with control of the zombies, he could have been trying to change the outcome of the war with Nazi Germany as victors and that's where the giant friggin robots come in (technology from the various timelines + Maxis' control of Zombies/115)and tha…

What's up guys? So I think everybody knows that Der Riese means The giant. So in the Apocalypse trailer we can see a giant robot, what if this giant robot was made in this facility known as now "Der Riese"? And do you remember when maxis said he couldn't be in the material world... yet? Some people said that he would use a robot, because, he can control some electronics. he would use this giant robot to reach Agartha (in the future, not in 1917) So.. discuss and sorry for my bad english :/ EDIT: Do you remember that radio in Shi no numa? " The giant must remain *static* at all costs, repeat, Der Riese must be contained at all costs." What if he wasn'…

As everyone has noticed, there are planes in the background of the Origins section of the apocalypse DLC poster, I think (Can't remember) that they are also there in the Origins part of DLC4 trailer. I hate to be nitpicky, but what are they doing there? They probably wouldn't be fighting as there is a 50-kajillion meters tall massive Robot right below them, anyway, I know this would break the survive until you give up and get killed rule, but if it were real or part of the EE, wouldn't they try to save you as they surely must of noticed the amount of bright eyed monsters on the ground trying to get a taste of the O4? If they were to serve a purpose, (unlikely) what wou…

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 …

Helllllloooooo everybody! I am sure you are all interested in getting the the nitty gritty details, but lets start from the beginning. My evidence is the letters. Using our thinking caps and several treyarch-esque hints, we know that the while proccess of mining and using E115 began a few months before the first letter dated september 22, 1917. From this, we can know that production is coming along. This is our start. The most recent letter from takeo dated march 1918. How does this help? We know that the map has SNOW. Now by now, snow is still reasonable but becoming less. So lets delve further. Unfortunately, winter ends roughly different depending…

Hey folks, This is my first time ever posting this sort of thread/theory/whatever, so bear with me. I've been thinking about MOTD's relevance in the story line, and why Richtofen has blood vials belonging to two of the mobsters - and I think I may have a solid theory which "may" explain. So what if MOTD is actually symbolic of where the N4 were/are trapped after the events of moon? As we know, Moon suddenly ended when Richtofen swapped souls with Sam, and then randomly leaving the other four characters to their own devices. Now, with all the time rift stuff going on, what if they are stuck on moon in a "cycle" Now; MOTD is the O4, stuck in a cycle in a…

A giant robot? Origins. A driving robot? Tranzit. Destroyed building thought to be a beginning? Tranzit. Actual beginning? Origins. Since it'd be cool if you take the last map from Black Ops II and the first map from Black Ops II and combine them together, it'd be a pretty cryptic thing. Perhaps Tedd was a prototype of the robots we know see in Origins? Perhaps we will see some kind of experiments that involve Denizens in Origins? Perhaps we will remove all topics that said FEAR TEDDY/FEAR RUSS was a thing ( ) ? Perhaps the Arvagado will have an involvement in Origins? I just feel like 3arch would do something like this. I mean I would. Thoughts?

Okay so we all should know by now that the new Origins map will be set BEFORE everything. Before Richtofen experimented on the O4. Will this affect the old characters we all know and love? Dempsey is always angry. Nikolai is drunk. Takeo recites proverbs. Richtofen's experimentation caused this. So without these side effects from their being experimented on, are our characters going to be boring and normal? We know they will be badass in the first place because would Richtofen team up with them because they are weak? I doubt it. On another note. Would this be set before Richtofen went crazy from touching the mysterious pyramid on the moon? I hope this map will …

I looked through the forum and have not seen an idea like this. if it is in the wrong section or has been discussed please remove or lock. it is long so be prepared lol Every story needs a hero. As you can see by the title I believe the true zombie hero to be our mad doctor / aetheral being Richtofen! What say you? Im waaaay off? Well, let me share my thoughts of where the story / ee / canon is heading. The first reference I will make is MotD. There is division amongst the forum on how this story was connected to the main story line. While the reasons being many including the discovery of 115 in our story to the announcer in that map / time frame. To that I say…

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,…

In all the past maps we have had either a Turned or Grief mode with the exception of Green Run and Buried which had both. What do you think is in store for this map? Grief, Turned, or Both? Now the "longshot" is this and bear with me on this, but what if instead of including a mode of Grief/Turned they included another Story Map, another TranZit (That is the Story mode version) What if on one map we have the 04 and on the other we have the N4. Additionally, what if you had to do an EE with the O4 to do the one with the N4. I know this is a bit (really*) farfetch'd but the idea is pretty nice. Just imagine the amount of hours of play time Treyarch would receive. …

Hey all. I was on the COD site and saw this on Origins's map bio. http://uploadffs.nl/images/2013/08/12/XW8Hr.png As I hope you can see, it says "ALCATRAZ" If you don't believe me, check here: http://www.callofduty.com/blackops2/dlc ... se#origins So I think this map ties in with Mob of the Dead. Also backed up by the blood things Richtofen had on his belt that match Finn and Sal's serial numbers that we saw during the Origins trailer. What do you think it means? Really odd this...... EDIT: I accidently put Buried instead of Origins. FACEPALM. Sorry about that. :\

Now as we all know, it's gonna be from the very beginning right? Well i'm not entirely sold on that. Maybe, at one time, there was a moment where it was from the EXACT beginning. But I know that all this time traveling in the past games must have effected the past (specifically the origins) somehow. My reason is that in the gameplay trailer, it showed the Remington. Now before you scream "It's just because the Remington was implemented into Black Ops II for multiplayer and campaign and 3arch just wanted to continue the trend!!!!1111", they couldn't just say "It's 1917. We're STILL gonna put this future gun into it". I know, most guns aren't canon, but i'm talking about Or…

As i'm sure some of you are well aware by now, A7X are going to be providing there song 'Shepherd a Fire' for the maps opening cinematic. I was just wonderig what you all thought about this? Personally, i'm happy. I'm a big A7X fan since Not Ready To Die actually and look forward to hearinf them in a map again, especially as it's a new song. Oh and before anyone says anything, I don't think this is going to be the music easter egg for the map, it only says that it'll be on the opening cinematic so there may still be hope for Elena's return yet. I presume they'll do it like Rusty Cage in MoTD and include the song in some way in the actual map though.

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?

After the events in Buried, Richtofen has full control over the Aether's energies, but the meaning of Aether is; The link between dimensions. The reason this attracted me is that Richtofen now has the power to shift between dimensions/different realities. Does this mean that Origins is a prequel and a sequel? Well...yes and no, Origins is an alternate dimension, a different reality where Tank, Takeo, Nikolai and Richtofen meet up in an aftermath, where "The Giant" was never in Germany but was in France, where Group 935 built a "Giant" and never even discovered the mysterious Element 115, but you ask how, how did the zombies exist in a reality where…

So the Mauser is our new starting pistol, so will we see the M&S return? probably not exactly. Maybe some different version of the M&S. Hopefullly the same damage output without the splash damage. All I know is that Im going to to not let go of that pistol. A second thing. I wonder if it will have the same damage output/clip size and stuff. If not then im going to have to retrain myself. I have been using that m1911 for a couple years and point whoring is something I do on a regular basis.
