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.

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.

I've recently purchased black ops 3 on the store from my console. Will I get the nuketown bonus map from this purchase ?

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).

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…

With the latest news of "panic knifing" being removed from the game after SO long, I began to wonder: How will knifing work? Well supposedly, knifing now stuns the enemy with small amounts of damage from a weapon smash to the face. That's really cool, but won't kill the average player. Now many people are upset about this, and I have to say this: There are 2 solutions A knife being a weapon, which will take up a weapons slot and kill the player one stab. Or: The return of the bayonet attachment: Slap that on and you get melee-kills from weapon bashes. Of course, it takes up an attachment slot... Your thoughts?

So looking at the model and how the thief works, anyone notice the thing on his belt? kind of looks like one of the gadgets on the moon loading screen, could this be how he travels? with multiverses being a thing now could we see him again? Or maybe with all the equations and things on him, and him being from 935 as shown on his bag, could this be monty? edit: Who remembers this? In one of the "ads" it talks about a pocket personal teleporter as well as an xenon belt. Now could the Pentagon theif be Mr. M after all we only saw him in one map however he had some of these items (my opinion on closer inspection of the thiefs model.)…

Ok, so my idea for the next CODZ game involves 3 main aspects for what I call progressive play: 1/2: Creation: On a related note, these progressive play rounds are actuallly created on the new App released which allows one to check stats in zombies and MP, as well as choose which maps to play and the over-all objective's goal. You can pick and choose a variety of goals to add to your playlist of games. 1: Planning- To start progressive play, you need a plan of attack. For example lets say: Multiplayer: Your goal is to locate, infiltrate, and destroy a prototype weapon from the opposing faction. You can choose this mission from your console, and it will start you and …

We can only imagine the many ways chcknshyte individuals can manage to get ahold of pre-release copies of sensational games, and at the very base of that predicament is the fact that the only way to access it without going straight up hacker-cracker on the publisher's data center is if physical copies of the game are created. (Holy toledo...if I was in management at Activ, I would be LIVID, ready to go on a headhunt to narrow down whether it was an inside or distro leak. I'd probably be hated by PR.) So the obvious solution is to switch to digital only, right? Access is provided only when the publisher's distribution center verifies your identity. However, if you're l…

I saw this image being tweeted out earlier and it appears to show 3 other maps that could possibly be on the stock disc. If anyone can find a bigger version of the image it may have something worth seeing on it. We see Shadows of Evil at the top and The Giant at the bottom, but what are the other 3? Surely they can't be DLC maps as there would be 4 more images and it would be a bit early to announce something like that. Could we possibly be getting more that 2 maps upon release?

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…

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.

The above video from a reliable source (dalekJD) states that the beloved terminal will be returning. What does this mean? Well, it could mean a lot of things! -Hidden easter eggs for the storyline -New DOA activation? Maybe? -My personal favorite: ZORK 2?!?! -More 115 locations? What do you think?

Hi, I'm quite new to posting onto these forums but have been following them for quite some time, I have a theory video coming out soon about the final map in the black ops 3 series and wondered where I could put it as I dont want to break any rules. The video is only to air some of my theories on what could possibly take place and also start a discussion with other zombie theorists to see if we can actually predict what may happen.

What I mean by "Sacred topic" is that THIS thread is designed for Xbox one, and PC uses. As well as any PS4 users who have waited to buy the game. I'd not normally ask for this, but I was wondering if when the time comes, If I could regulate posts on this thread? Like I could report someone for breaking the rules, and a moderator would delete the post as fast as possible? Simply put this area is for people that have to wait for the DLC map. It's designed to preserve the easter-egg hunt feel for one month so when we get it, we have just as much fun with the map, discovering easter eggs, and working things out our selves. RULES: …

http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0122703/board/threads/ Dropping hints like bombs. So I responded, I like to play at puzzle games... Anyway I posted this on imbd in reply: What made 09-07 2009 possible? Answer:- In 2009 Oscar Pistorius ran in the Para-triathlon, became the fast man on NO legs, he was the Blade Runner. Although both of Pistorius' legs were amputated below the knee when he was 11 months old, he has competed in events for single below-knee amputees and for able-bodied athletes. Prosthesis devices allowed a man with no legs to run very FAST, It changed the World as we know it. In Ember we see a lady with the same deal, but this time she has become the fastest…

I just want to give a shout out to @LiamFTWinter - I've been watching some of his videos over the course of the year and more specifically since the DLC season ended with Revelations. You are the only YouTuber that I know that is saying exactly how it is, how piss poor the ending was and generally just poking fun at them. It might not be the intention but it's how I'm viewing the videos. The reaction of you versus the other YouTube artists is deafening. You are like "WTF was that" and the others are like yeah, that was great and the reaction and faces of them and the attitude of the other YouTubers tells a different story. However, to stay on the good books, t…

This is a parallel to WWII A master race someone who believes only one true race can exist and uses Nova Gas to Eliminate Human's and Keep AI alive Since Nova gas is lethal to Humans yet should theoretically not work on beings that are not human. Also now that I'm thinking about it Would be parallel to what the teaser portrays The teaser shows how Augmentation begins and Humanity at first does not entirely approve of it They kind of see it as taboo Black Hand Smith: As time goes by things change, Opinions change Augmentation becomes a part of daily life and is no longer seen as weird or Odd but then comes the creation of artificially born Lifeforms which I can see going a…

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?

Campaign would be nice to, but lets be honest. Everybody only cares about zombies. With less than 3 weeks away we really don't know much about the new map, the boss zombie, the announcer, weapons and their statistics, etc. They really need to give us something to watch over and over until the 6th :( I'm not to excited about The Giant since that's basically Der Reise with the same characters. Probably with BO3 guns. Yawn. But Shadows of Evil should be something worth waiting 3 years for no?

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…

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…

So, Moon and Nuketown are happening at the same time. We've known that for 3 years already but many people have said that they have taken place in 2025 which doesn't really make sense. Take these factors into consideration: - These are the primary events leading up to nuketown: Nuke testing begins / BO1 multiplayer match finishes (1960s) , nuke denotates, CIA or CDC arrives to investigate, outbreak at Area 51 begins. Now, if a nuke JUST went off in the 1960s, and we know that Moon is at the same time, how could these maps be in the future? What sense does that really make, right? "Time displacement" doesn't work with this either because the enti…

So as we know the Dr Monty thing was released and we know he is a person but thats not why i made this topic i made this topic to talk about the most important thing he said in my mind in the segment the line i am referring to is this one "You Changed the rules" that has been bothering me ever since i first watched a reaction by Mrrolfwaffles(Damn me to hell if i spelled it wrong) and i just wonder, Did Monty actually have rules set up for this whole thing from the start of the zombies mode? Did he have rules set up for the origins crew?
