General discussion in regards to Black Ops 3.
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.

Everyone hated how in BO1, if the host quit, the game ended. In BO2, they gave us host migration - praise the lord - but if someone other than the host left the game, leaderboards no longer counted. I would've assumed for BO3, they'd have done the best of both- have host migration, but people leaving didn't affect the leaderboard - well looks like they've just reverted back to BO1. If the host quits the game just ends (without a message even saying host ended game).

Is anyone else disappointed in the graphics shown thus far in gameplay clips (zomibes or multiplayer)? They just don't seem to be much more improved over last gen consoles. To me the jump from WaW (360) to BO2 (One) is way bigger than BO2 (360) to BO3 (One). Here's 1080p (though 30fps) gameplay of BO3 multiplayer. https://youtu.be/5ociYeI-cEE?t=44s And while the one in game screenshot of Richtofen in The Giant looked good, the gameplay of Shadows of Evil didn't seem that much improved. Maybe we'll just have to wait to see it in action on our own consoles/PC to judge, but so far I'm not impressed.

Haven't seen this discussed anywhere, but there is a playlist in the data vault full of all the songs you have unlocked. If you play a song, you can start a campaign mission, nightmares mission, zombies map or dead ops 2 with that song playing. This works for songs unlocked in campaign, nightmares, dead ops 2 or zombies easter egg songs. youtu.be/TyWwTuMOpHE

Can anyone help me confirm wether or not I did indeed type in a code in the data vault, while just guessing aroud I input Corvus, then , Corvuus. No sound played or anything, though I now know that none ever does(so far at least)... a day later I noticed when I used the codex (the web browser on the computer) that I had 2 new bookmarks, both involving the corvuus project, I now can not tell if this was unlocked due to the code input , or was it just because i had progressed further in the campaign.... So...tell me what you think, and if you dont have those bookmarks, type in corvus or corvuus and maybe they will appear?

With the new patch, there looks to be a difference in the Zombies behaviour. They seem to be a lot less aggressive on the early rounds, and generally have a slower response time, similar to Black Ops 2 Zombies. It looks like that there may be a lot more walkers than usual per round too, and they have new walking animations. Also, as the rounds progress Zombies run much faster, similar to Zombies that are struck by George in Call of the Dead, or Zombies who chase after the Tank in Origins. So, I'm wondering if anyone else has noticed this too? I don't knowwhy Treyarch have done this, but if I had to guess it would…

I just had my game freeze over and over trying to start Zombies matches on xbox one. was reading the activision support twitter, and saw someone with the same issue. if you've just prestiged and your weapon that you unlocked has all its attachments on, you run the chance of bugging out your zombies experience. just a heads up in case people come here to look for answers. just remove all the attachments.

the "ready up" system is a key part of why zombies matchmaking has been so fun for all these years. it allowed for players to conversate, wait for others with headsets, and eliminate those who didnt. it kept the public matchmaking alive for years after release, but now it has been removed and replaced with a 60 second counter that doesnt reset upon joining or leaving and there is no way to extend it. this is game ruining for a pulic match player like myself and leaves us with a few choices. -play solo, wich i like but gets boring after mastering the map. -friends sessions, wich is also fun but gets boring quickly. - play with no mics, ragers, squeakers, and morons. is the…

Near the pack-a-punch area on shadows of evil is a special material of wall, that unlike every other wall in the game, lets you run on it. I personally love the wall running idea, although I've yet to experience it. I feel like as long as it's RESTRICTED to certain special walls, it's really fun. It's kind of useless in SOE though.... A different map could utilize it much better. And now on to point 2: Could we see underwater zombies? Personally I'd love to see it, imagine the implementations on custom games come march! We could see a Leviathan remake with actual swimming! The main issue with us not s…

Greetings CoDz! A little over one week ago we got our first plays in of Black Ops 3, and boy were we excited. It had been an extra year longer in waiting than normal and the map director was confirmed to be the same as the mind behind Origins and Mob of the Dead, which in my opinion are the best playing map and the best feeling map respectively. Now with Shadows probably finished and The Giant seeming empty I feel like it would be a good time to discuss views on the base mechanics across both maps and the new features like Gobblegum, weapon kits, ranking and more. So I'll start with the little things, like the ranking system and lea…

Okay bare with me here this is a lot haha. Also let me know what you guys think or if you have any other possibilities that can be added or explained by this. This is how I think of it. It really all links back to origins and the ending cutscene. You know how when your sleeping and you have a dream and something happens in that dream. Then the next day or week or month the same thing happens but in real life and you get a quick feeling of dejavu. Well I think the same thing happened to maxis. The dimension/ timeline where there is no zombies. Is the real true time line, also it's years before group 935 was founded and 115 was discovered and Der Riese. …

Hello everyone! Been quite some time since I've been here, but I've missed the zombie discussion in my life so I'm back! Can't wait for Friday, and a return to the top of the DOA leaderboards. If anyone wants to run some practice rounds in the (Eastern Standard Timezone) evening this week I'm very much so down for that. Let me know!

This is the second time I've redownloaded and reinstalled the game. Is it just me? How do I fix this? All my graphics are already at the base they can be. The picture in the top left of the first screencap is a friend of mine spilling a milkshake. Just so we are all in the clear that I'm a socially adjusted individual.

Hey guys! There are a ton of new features in BO3 zombies, I thought it might be a good idea to share any little tricks that can may help each other out. For example, how the Bowie Knife becomes a 2-hit kill at round 10. I'll start: The Ephemeral Enhancement Gobblegum PaPs your equipped weapon for 30 seconds. In this time, you can Pack a Punch it again for 2500 points to keep it permanently. That's a gun worth 7500 for only 2500! You are less likely to lunge forward while using our melee if you hold back on your control stick as you stab. This is great for knifing hoards during an Insta Kill or a Sword Flay. If you guys h…

With the impending release I'm sure many of you, like me, will skip the campaign and the multiplayer mode (at least initially) to jump straight into the warm and cozy world of zombies. So my question is this: What is most important on Day 1 to you? Some people will spend the formative hours learning the map, surfing for partners, and exploring the ever-evolving storyline we all know and love. Some will attempt to plow ahead and jump to an early leaderboard advantage, counting on discovering the intricacies of each map as they go. So what's your style? Slow and steady, and fast and furious?

Short PSA: In case anyone here isn't as vigilant about checking their sub box all the time like I am, new officially cleared content is being put out extensively, and more and more information and details are coming out every minute by both the bigger channels (smithplays, syndicate, ROFL) and the smaller ones. If you don't want anything you're gonna see tomorrow spoiled, I would stay away from the YouTubes until then. I unfortunately won't have the game till thanksgiving, so I'll be awaiting all of the discoveries with baited breath. Happy slaying

The inspiration for this map is a bit topical, if the mods have any issue with it, please feel free to inform me to remove what's in this spoiler, or remove it yourself. I don't want this thread taken down for something so trifle, but I do want people to get the whole picture. Just tell me and I'll take it down. *Thumbs up Emoji Now for those that don't want to hear anything about the BO3 beta's PC file codes: Skip this spoiler. Ladys and gentlemen: Dead OPs Arcade II: Castle of the undead This mode will be unlocked similarly to the last DOA, only this time it's by finding a specific website on the the new In-game-Wiki.
