BOIII News & Announcements
Discuss all news and announcements regarding Black Ops 3 here.
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.

http://charlieintel.com/2015/09/25/black-ops-3-on-ps3-and-xbox-360-will-only-feature-mp-and-zombies-no-campaign-mode/ Theres the article from Charlie Intel. If you can't click it I will quote the actual announcment: "The Black Ops 3 PS3 and Xbox 360 versions will feature Multiplayer and Zombies gameplay only, not Campaign. The ambitious scope of the 1-4 player coop Campaign design of the PS4, Xbox One and PC versions could not be faithfully recreated on old generation hardware. Delivering the best possible gameplay experience on all platforms is always our highest priority. With that in mind, Black Ops 3 PS3 and Xbox 360 players can continue to look forward to a new…

So Black Ops III Beta is out tomorrow on PS, for those lucky PS. For those lucky PS players able to play the beta, it would be good to get some initial thoughts and feedback from the game. The Beta is scheduled to have 3 maps and 7 modes, so plenty to do and plenty to investigate. I would like to create a news article and a newsletter to be sent to all members, so screenshots, guides etc. would be ideal to use within the newsletter. If you think you can help, please post below and please also put reviews etc. below as well. Have fun, happy camping and look out behind you

Well, this is a disappointment. The beta should've been a week at least. Now we know this is just to hype up the game, instead of being a proper beta where they try and fix a lot of problems in it. PS4: Beta starts August 19th - August 23rd XONE/PC: August 26th - August 30th Source: http://charlieintel.com/2015/07/22/black-ops-3-beta-starts-aug-19th-on-ps4-aug-26th-on-xbox-one-and-pc/

GDC in mid march is speculated to contain an official announcement for the Black Ops 3 DLC Pack 2. March 14-18 will be a time that I will be glued to the internet and I am starting this thread in hopes that it finds it's way to a stickier place. The dates of the DLC has not been released as of yet but we know for a fact that it will be PS4 in April and XBOX in May. Speculation by "experts" suggest a week one release right after a MASSIVE update. What are you looking forward to seeing and what are your hopes for the next installment of Black Ops 3 DLC's.

I have been following the Black Ops 3 Mod Tools very closly and have been really excited about them since they first got mentioned. The more content I see being released, the more excited I get. A YouTuber known as Madgaz Gaming has been working on a Nacht Der Untoten map and it looks just amazing. He has also created his own perk machine that gives you all the perks on the map after you complete a certain challenge (easter egg) and everything about it looks awesome. I am really looking forward in getting involved with these tools once they release and I am filled with ideas for maps etc. I'm hoping that while playing custom maps, we will still be able to rank…

Spoiler "When an AI security system tries to destroy the Tranzit crew, Marlton must use his tech skills to outwit the digital defenses. Misty reminds him that he can’t survive on his own: it’s going to take more than know-how and smarts to get everyone out alive. The group decide to take a chance on escaping from the zombie-infested apocalyptic wasteland, not knowing if their desperate attempt will work or where it could take them." This will be released Feburary 15, 2017. It's also worth noting that Comic #2 (Russman's one) has been pushed back 2 weeks, from Dec 21 to Jan 4. Comic #3 seems a bit to close to that, so I wouldn't be surprised if …

So I managed to save (so far) all of the Snapchats of the Reveal & put them into 1 video. There is a few good lines from the Old crew actor at the end. looks like Call of Duty/Treyarch are doing some behind the scenes snapchats. Only images so far.

Speculations puts DLC 3 right after E3 and that means a mid June release. This, however, is not a thread to discuss when DLC 3 will drop, but rather, what you would like to see Treyarch add/subtract from the franchise. My expectations of the new map packs are as follows: Loved the new swimming mechanics. Worked as well as I could have ever hoped for and was extremeley pleased. This is definitely on the keep/exspand list of features that I would love to see in the new DLC. Large zombie antogonist (Panzer Soldat, Margwa, or Thrasher). This is an annoying yet necessary piece to the puzzle that makes zombies appealing to me, but I think that they could be a …

I'm just curious, I've had a great experience with custom maps in world at war, but I didn't end up buying the game on PC until years after release. Does knowing that black ops 3 mod tools will be available change what system you're going to buy the game for? Why or why not? Personally I'm going to stick with the ps4 until maybe after all the dlc is released, then buy the game on PC next winter when the price is cut. Thoughts?
