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 this is a joke, but I saw this and thought of the O4 and hell hounds. https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Middle_Ages_rabid_dog.jpg See, that's Nikolai with the russian hat and club and beard, Rictofen with the technologically advanced ranged weapon, Tank going melee, and the honorable Takeo with his sword! More fuel for the Primus parchment fire theories.

When making the ultimate staffs, do you need to build all of the regular ones first, before one can be upgraded? So could I build the fire staff and then upgrade it, without building any others?

So basically I was in a game where we were doing the Easter egg, and someone messed up the lightning staff piano puzzle by shooting the wrong key. About 10 rounds later I start upgrading the lightning staff, and it won't work (the old shots were still there) so now we were not able to do the Easter egg. Why doesn't it reset the order?

So here's what I think the general plot for this map is. Takeo, Dempsey, Nikolai and Samantha all want to destroy Group 935, and probably also stop the whole zombie thing. They know that the teleporters can also go through time, so they try and hack one teleporter on the Moon to bring 'em back to when 935 was just starting. Of course, only Sam vaguely knows how they work, and the rest have basically no clue, so this takes a long time. But they finally figured it out, so they went back to said time. Problem is, they were a bit late, 935 had already discovered 115, and they had made that robot that runs off 115 (assumption). Though they weren't originally going to send…

Okay, If you read this before - viewtopic.php?f=139&t=28062 then you see where I'm going with this. So I've been thinking, what if by pushing the button it doesn't actually "Reset" the Maps E.E.'s I keep thinking about the save feature, how you can't re-do one side of the E.E. without first completing the other. You can only have one side of the E.E. saved to your Online Profile. So instead of Resetting the E.E's for the maps, it's save what side you pushed the button for and that in turns has an effect on "Origins" I've looked at the images from the "First Look Trailer" I've noticed the "Blue" lighting effect in the backgrounds of some of them. …

Alright let me gather my thoughts from all the brainstorming that I have done.. (B4 READING ON, THIS IS WHAT IM THINKING COULD BE SO DONT CRUCIFY ME) First and foremost, Samantha... What I think Samantha's involvement in this map is she's telling the story of the first zombie out break "origins". But you may ask who's the audience listening to the story.... The o3 excluding richtofen of course. Now u see what I think makes sence is she tells this story of origins to nikloi, takeo and dempsey... You might ask why and when?... Let me start off with when, she's telling them the story after the events from moon... Where, nobody knows where they are and speculation h…

Origins - The Outpost Link As we all know, the Germans were obsessed with gaining the upper hand in both World Wars. They did many things to try and accomplish that. In the Zombies reality we are familiar with, the Germans succeeded in accomplishing that in WWII with Group 935's discovery of Element 115. But, in our Origins timeline (which is confirmed to be an ALTERNATE version here), the Germans discovered the Element much earlier: In the midst of World War 1. The Germans had discovered the Element a fair time earlier than in the Current Reality. They seem to have a decent knowledge of what the substance is and seem to know of its i…

So, we have a new map releasing next Tuesday as everyone is well aware. The topic I would like to address today is the pack-a-punch. A couple of things to discuss and theorize on, is will we have a "pack-a-punch" machine at all, or will we be upgrading in a different manner. and then secondly assuming there is a physical pack-a-punch machine, what camo will we be seeing on the guns afterward. Will it be the purple and green swirl like with the N4 maps? will it be the flaming illuminati skin a la Mob of the Dead? we got a reimagining of the WaW pack-a-punch camo released as a multiplayer camo, since this is the "origins" maybe that will be the skin? or will it be a comp…

My first sad attempt at putting together a theory. Enjoi. I'll try to avoid using time paradoxes as much as possible. I'll start with the trailer: So this is supposedly Sam Maxis giving us her take on the story of call of duty zombies and how it all began. The only problem is, given the date shown in the trailer, many have assumed Sam wasn't even born yet. However, maybe we're wrong and Sam had actually been born around or slightly before this time? The map is apparently taking place in 1918 which is pretty much the end of WWI. We're shown some footage of soldiers cracking open some kind of grave/burial ground or something, underneath a megalith structure (refer …

In this post I would like to start a discussion about some possible theories. I will two ways to relay this information, video and text. The theories are in BOLD. Let me know what you guys think!! I REALIZE THAT YOUTUBERS HAVE UPLOADED EARLY GAMEPLAY OF ORIGINS. NOTE: I HAVE NOT WATCHED ANY OF THE GAMEPLAY NOR DO I PLAN TO. DO NOT SPOIL IT FOR ME. So if you don't feel like listening to me talk, then I have included the text. So, let’s start with the first achievement on the list “Little lost girl” The objective of this achievement is to release Samantha. Now how is it possible that Samantha is even alive, when this map is dated to take place in …

I was wondering what the easter egg would be like and I came up with this- What if the easter egg revolves around a Richtofen vs. Samantha scenario instead of Richtofen vs. Maxis, and adds a MOTD-like twist? I know a few others on the forum were wondering about time travels potential connection to this map and the concept of rewriting the past. And so, I was wondering what if the easter egg revolves around a future Samantha (and a COTD styled cameo of future Takeo, Nikolai, and Dempsey) contacting the crew in the past to alter the course of history. You could either choose to listen to Richtofen and let things happen as they normally would or you could Free S…

At about round 4 you hear Samantha say something along the lines of "I'm trapped here" and at about round 7 "you need to open the gateway". If you work with maxis all the way he reveals he wants to open the gateway to Agartha to free Samantha. Could this be the Easter egg, freeing Samantha from Agartha? May be far fetched, but this could possibly mean time travel, explaining how Samantha got there in the first place. Any thoughts?

Arg! I'm not able to play till tonight, so I stopped looking at this forum and YouTube yesterday when the first gameplay was released. I'm not going to look today either. So this thread is for other who are doing the same thing. For solidarity. And to have a place on CodZombies to post things that are not spoilers. :? I'm excited to see if any of my Elemental Staff theories were right, some 4 player coop action tonight with friends, how the Panzers will work, the effect of Zombie Blood, how to avoid the Giant, and to hear our O4 talk again. What are you looking forward to?

I have just played a game with 3 friends and during said game I spotted a plane, glowing orange. I shot down the plane and a orange orb began descending from the sky. I went to where it had landed and there it was; a part for the fire staff! I'm not sure what determines this but I will mention that we had done all 4 boxes that have to be filled with souls, plus all generators were activated! Hope this helped you avid zombie fans :D

This map is challenging me. I believe there is a reason they gave us 4 WW's, because we definitely need them to survive. This map is really pissing me off, but I'm happy they have us something challenging as well as team based strategies. Also, I've counted 9 perks. Jug DT II Speed-cola Mule kick Quick revive Phd flopper Dead shot daiquiri Electric cherry Stamin-up Haven't seen vulture-aid, anyone else? I'm thinking this map will end up being the best of all time, and hoping that the EE rewards you something better than ever. I think there is shitloads more to discover and I'm looking forward to learning more. Happy hunting.
