Salutations my peers! Within this article you shall find a collection of facts regarding the supposed science-fiction hive mentality of our insectoid trespassers, as introduced in Extinction. A common misconception of these alien creatures would be the application of the term "Hive Mind" to their social functions. This implies a collective conscience, where all members share the memories and experience of another organism of their swarm. In fact, the actual term for the foreign Extinction race's organizational ability, would be Eusociality. The most common participants in such an animal society would be ants, bees, wasps, and termites; each has a caste based existence, ea…

Teeth Qs: 1. Some of the teeth items have levels, right? 2. Are some 1 buy only? I bought the 'faster heal' one and it turned red. 3a. Does this mean that i can hit it to turn it off/on? 3b. Or can i buy it again and it changes color? I'm saving for the 'start with skill point'. 4. Can you buy that more than once? On the pool: these automatically add some teeth when the clock runs down. Then, destroying a barrier hive (or equivalent, like the tentacle in Mayday), gets you one tooth from that pool. 5. This is correct, yes? 6. Is there a way to affect how many teeth get added to the pool? I know that's a bunch of questions, but I'm curious and ve…

Well, the title says it all. Who is your character when you play Extinction? Do you use a special character like Makarov? A clan character like the Body Count warrior? Or is your character something of your own creation? Feel free to share pictures as well if you like! Personally, my Extinction character is either the Hazmat or the recently released Astronaut, mainly because they both just fit in so well with the theme of the mode. Also, although I have characters like Zakhaev and Price, I just find it weird when I play as them and find that their voices do not match their characters at all. Zakhaev should never sound like a surly black man.

So Chaos Mode has been out for a while since the difficutly patches and such for Xbox 360 Extinction. I was just wondering if anyone had any opinions on Chaos Mode? I love it Im an Extinction addiction myself and an avid solo player so i really enjoy all the things they are adding. I have yet to try Co-Op though and im sure thats super fun. Chaos mode is hard to learn like most side game modes but once you do, its really fun if you enjoy Extinction. Leave some thoughts and opinions if you have tried Chaos Mode!

Is it just so much more rare than in the Nightfall? I have not found any Mayday random intel from the boxes. In Nightfall I got them quite frequently.

So lately i've been trying to finish up Nightfall, doing Achevements, High Scores etc.. Im on my last Achevement and its Complete Nighfall and Kill The Breeder with a Relic. So for the past 2-3 days i've been trying to figure out which relic to run. So eventully i came to the conculsion that if you want to run 1 Relic Solo your best bet is Pistols Only. So I tried it all day yesterday and just hopped on this morning. So overall this is my 3rd trial and it goes really well, except till im with the LAST hive. It finishes out the Hive and im nearly done. If you have played this map fully you know you have a few seconds before you actually have to go to the breeder fight…

NINJANICK NOT SO AMAZING GUIDE TO ALL THINGS EXTINCTION Classes having different players as different classes and play to your strengths, for example I am good at avoiding enemies so I usually go Medic.

Edit: down below I'm working on teaching you to solo poc for wins/teeth (later post in this thread). This is for poc, as each map will have different requirements. First the class, then the why. Name: The No-Doubt Loadout; take this class on poc solo and you will win. Class: Tank (yes, medic is best) Pistol Type: Magnum Ammo Type: Explosive. (pistol ark if you have it) Team Support: (was boosters) grenades. Strike Package: Sentry Gun Equalizer: Crowd Control Relic: Pistol Only --- Why Tank? Solo, only 1 point is required in Tank to be able to stab Scouts dead in 1 hit. That saves ammo, your health, time, reduces chance to be overwhelmed. …

Beating the Kraken is relatively easy on Mayday - you just have to "know" the Kraken and anticipate his actions. I'm going to outline what the Kraken does, and then I'm going to outline what YOU should do. The Kraken has 4 quarters, if you will (each quarter he switches sides) - so just keep that in mind. For both of these outlines I will be referring to this map that I drew (click to enlarge): Key: Turrets 1-4 = the order in which 1 person would operate all 4 turrets throughout the battle Green circles = safe from when the Kraken heats up the floor Kraken pictures = Kraken spawns (he switches sides every time you take a quarter of his health away. h…

So Mayday has been out for over a week now and we haven't found any easter eggs yet. (Probably because no one has been looking) The past 2 maps have had easter eggs and while they were fairly small they were still fun to solve. I'm guessing the trigger is somewhere within the starting area like the last 2 maps, but nothing stands out to me apart from one thing (well, technically 4 things). There are yellow valves scattered all around the starting area that look like this. Most of them are a fairly dull yellow colour, but I've noticed 4 that are MUCH brighter than the rest. All of them are in the starting area, 2 up the ramp in the first room and 2 a…

I stated this the DAY extinction came out, and I'll say it again: This HAS to have some link to the zombies storyline. Look at it! we're playing as an african american man, a man with a beard, a man with a mustache, and a girl. we've been attacked by hordes of presumed to be dead monstrosities hidden beneath us. we've fought in a town, an area of extreme altitude, and a waterlogged bace. I feel safe in saying a lot of the next map will be underground and perhaps the map after that will involve a war zone, or perhaps ancient links…. the two people running the show? A cryptic girl by the name of samantha who secretly controls the hordes. and a…

Hello people, I am back after a (very long ) hiatus and have a new topic for you, Dec pack 2 and the new episode within it. What we know so far: It is on a Chinese ship. The ship has crashed (presumably because of the outbreak). The new elemental Venom-X weapons. Some sort of electrical trap. Alternate paths to take. Buildables! A new 100ft tall, McCracken like cryptid. The 'seeder' cryptic which is a smaller scorpion with a sentry gun like plant it can place aka the sentree. (Geddit? Sentry tree? No?) Archer is still on board. What I speculate: Cross is also on board, connected to the large hive as seen in the epilogue. The new aliens are from the 'sec…

In Solo and Custom games, you can select new difficulty levels. Regular is the standard that we've been playing since launch. I've been playing around with Hardcore and I'll update on what I find. -Damage dealt is increased. Running the Do Less Damage will bump it up to regular damage. -Skill Points can ONLY be earned through completing challenges. You do not get a point for destroying a hive. -Stronger Cryptids appear earlier. Had two Hunters on the second hive, and 5 Hunters on the third. -Seekers will appear almost infinitely during some waves. -Ricochet Friendly Fire is turned on. If you shoot your teammate by accident, you'll take damage. -Rhinos and Scorpio…

I decided to make this thread to totally review Infinity Ward's new Aliens map, "Nightfall". In it, I will go over what to expect in each area and my total review of the map at the end. Also, I'll include a list of all Cryptid species that we know of so far as to not confuse anyone during the review. I'm also going to express my opinions as to what is good and what is bad about this map. As always, there are MAJOR SPOILERS ahead, so please stop reading if you don't want to ruin the experience for yourself before playing. Let me make something clear, the 'aliens' that we are fighting ARE NOT ALIENS. Their species are called Cryptids, and I will use that name inste…

It's not the games fault, but this is why I have trouble getting obsessed with Extinction. 4 years, I worked at peoples homes and saw the mindless masses in their lairs, 4 years I managed a pizzeria, and dealt with what i thought was the dregs of humanity. Then, for over a decade, i worked retail in a RadioShat, where the absolute bottom-feeders of humanity sludged through the door with their endless waves of idiocy. So playing zombies was therapy. It was like retail, but you killed the mindless masses. Therapy. Gta? Running folk over, shooting them for fun? Therapy. CoD? Angrily blowing the crap out of people that are pissing me off? Therapy. Twisted …

In the gamespot livestream today one of the Extinction devs told us there was an Easter Egg on nightfall that is related to a snowman, the only he hint he gave was "Find the sparks". There's multiple poles on the map that have lights on top of them, each has 2 metal tubes attached that spark and blow up when shot, it doesn't seem like they serve any purpose outside of something easter egg related. We shot what we thought were all of these poles in one game, but nothing happened. I know Extinction doesn't get much love here but Easter Eggs do and I really want to figure this out, does anyone have any ideas?

Disclaimer: There will most likely be spoilers in this thread, so hit that back button now if you do not wish to have this told to you. You can learn much from a first impression. Here at CoDz, for each Zombies map released, the forum has had a "first impressions" thread for people to share the feelings they underwent as they embarked into this unknown realm of discovery, in which many are captivated by the various aspects that make up a map, such as the soundtrack, story, gameplay and other features. This feeling of adventure is a feeling I personally love. However, no member has decided to bring us a first impressions thread for Extinction. But I am here to change t…

Now, this achievement is a bit strange. You have to destroy a hive in Nightfall or PoC...but first, you have to find four alien Hives in the new multiplayer maps. 1. Containment -On the southern part of the map, go into a building at the very back. Go up the stairs, go into the second room, then look out the window on your left towards the left. The Hive will be on top of a building outside the map. Shoot it. 2. BayView -Upon spawning on the north side of the map, turn left until you get the edge of the dock, then look behind you toward the dock across the water. There will be a hive underneath the dock. Shoot it too. 3. Ignition -Go into the underground t…
