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.

Once Der RIese was released for World at War character bios were added for Demsey, Nikolai, Takeo and Richtofen. Now with the addition of Origins and generally much more information about the characters, these bios seem pretty inconsistent, e.g. Richtofen was known as the butcher during WW2, and that Nikolai played a big part in Russian politics. Are the characters meant to go through world war one and two, and then encounter the zombies, but some kind of intervention forced an alternate timeline in which Tank, Takeo and Nikolai hunted down Richtofen in Northern France in WW1? Just generally a bit confused on the origins of the storyline at this point. Radios on W…

In black ops 2 we saw one of the most infamous game mechanics to date that has plagued all of us: The effect of any harmed zombie dies after a certain period of time, or certain distance away. We saw this in an even more horrid form in Exo-zombies, where zombies would die weither the zombie was harmed or not. Back in the good ole days of BO1, there was an aspect known as "Saving a Crawler" where players would use their remaining frags to try to get a "Slow-Crawler". This would allow them a breather period to study and understand the map and stock up on guns and perks. However in the next installment of the game, there was an issue where any harmed zombie would die…

The title of this thread depicts the exact way the XP system will effect the game. SO, how will the XP system effect the game specifically? Personally, I think it rewards you will certain customizable items: -A different starting pistol for instance. But others have begun to theorize a LOT of different things: -Different effects of the sword in SOE. -Different/more guns in the box. -Different/more perks in the wonderfizz. -Different/more gum balls in the Monty's Gum machine. -Different starting location in the SOE map. -Survival/Gamemode maps open up. What do you think will be effected by the ranking system? REMEMBER: It can't be TOO OP. But it…

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?

We were extremely close to getting the Paris map in Black Ops but now as we write the evenst of Black Ops again maybe we finally get to visit Paris. The Giant map starts from the point Richtofen betrays Maxis. So what happened after this point? Richtofen would have met the O4 at Shi No Numa where he would have gone back to Der Riese and started their travel together to hunt the artifacts. Now Richtofen is dead and O4 are most likely still at the Siberian outpost. Treyarch has said they have no plans at the moment to visit other old maps in Black Ops III so we know that the crews trip will change. They are not going to find the artifacts or blow up the Earth but do someth…

I don't mean like literally the exact specialist system, because every decision you make in zombies affects gameplay, and no external decisions. Consequently a conventional character select or create a class has never been implemented. But still, it seems like a few of the abilities or weapons could work in zombies, albeit implemented in a way more conventional to Zombies. We already saw the girl in SoE do a Grav Spike slam (although it looked more electrical) yet it was more or less the same idea. Do you think the other MP Specialist weapons could fit in zombies? Surely not ALL of them. The Anihilator hand-cannon thing seems a little unnecessary. Then you run into the is…

For many years now Xbox has received DLC First before anyone else. However all that changes Today. From this point forward Playstation 4 will get DLC First. So how is that a good thing? Well, let me explain. Call of Duty is full of children in the community. Always camping, saying dumb things like, Reznov is Mason's dad or Misty got bitten by a zombie. Marlton is Dead. However that is all about to be a thing of the past. You see, Children need to ask their parents to buy them a console so they can Play Cod and it's DLC First. So naturally Most of them went and had their parents buy them an Xbox One. Now that PS4 got DLC first. Children will be trapped on the Xbox One whi…

So, when questioned by syndicate, treyarch responded to the idea of customization in BO3 with a vague answer I can't think of right now and my internet's too slow for my impatient self to work with. EITHER WAY, they responded with the statemen that it COULD potentially be coming to zombies. However, this wouldn't be the first time COD has gone back on these half-promises. I personally don't think it will come. But, I've been wrong about just about everything else so far! What do you guys think? Will PC finally get some upgrades from treyarch for their custom zombie hunger?

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…

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 …

IGN posted an interview with our dear friends Jason Blundell, and Dan Bunting. They go in-depth about what made them decide to go further into the future, and what they're doing with current-gen technology. http://ie.ign.com/videos/2015/06/16/call-of-duty-black-ops-3-gameplay-demo-ign-live-e3-2015 And then there's Jason Blundell's face at the end, when Zombies is mentioned.

So, Black ops 3 has already released information that BO3 will have ALL of it's multiplayer maps designed to work both with the thrust jump, and simplistic running and normal jumping. This leads me to believe that there's at least one or two characters who DON'T use thrust-jumps. There's likely advantages to NOT using the thrusters, but I'd actually like to bring up the concept of grapples and other methods of movement. It'd be cool to have to decide between taking one character over the other by how the move. Speed vs Height vs aquatic movement vs Weapon strength. I think the reason we didn't see it in the pre-pre-alpha is because it simply wasn't built yet, and o…

The past 3 treyarch games have really added QUITE the list of tidbits to their games that when I see again, continue time after time to bring a smile to my face. Here's my top 10 little things I'd like to see return in BO3: 10: Easter-egg minigames: In BO1, we got not only DOA, but a special game unlocked only by going to the terminal in the main menu, and typing in "ZORK" to start a text-style-only RPG. The terminal has been confirmed to appear again (NOT A LEAK) so I wonder if ZORK will too, or maybe a new game? 9: Nuketown easter egg: In the past, there's been an easter egg for the nuke town maps linked with blasting all the heads off mannequins, In BO1 it was a…

This is a personal character idea that has NOT in anyway been confirmed, it's just my idea that I'd like to share: This is a charging character, a special character who specializes in 1 thing: Your bio-energy. (In the game you will have to regulate how much energy you'll put into thrust jumping, long-range vision, night vision, and other things. ) Weapon: Gun: Charge beam. A special weapon that only works while the player is completely stationary. It turns your legs into generators see, that produce electricity. The electricity can be fired at team mates to re-fill their bio-energy that lets them do their thrust jumps and slides and long-vision and hacking an…

In black ops 3 there has been released evidence that there will be 9 custom classes released upon launch, four of which we know of as Ruin, Reaper, Seraph, and Outrider. That leaves 5 more characters, given there isn't a secret character or DLC character. SO here's one of my ideas for one of these characters, please note this is not a confirmed character, just an idea of mine: Volture Volture is a human with only one augmentation: His eyes. Formally blind, his eyes are the result of a series of secret government nonsense. This allows him to see a radius ring, a bit like in SAO/GGO where you can see the possible places a weapon will hit when fired from the hip…

http://www.cbc.ca/m/news/technology/ocumetics-bionic-lens-could-give-you-vision-3x-better-than-20-20-1.3078257 Not directly related to the game, other than the implication in the Ember trailer that these are used in BO3, but The fact that these are very real and much closer than Black Ops 3 predicts is exciting. As it relates to the actual game, I kinda figured the whole idea here is that your soldier's HUD is actually visible to him as the numbers are projected for him by the contacts. Seems like an interesting retroactive explanation for a feature we take for granted. Any thoughts on the matter / other "real" BO3 technology?

and we should all be playing BOIII - what are we all hoping for? It's a pipe dream, but I'm hoping that Treyarch realise and appreciate that some (if not all) players want enhanced BO/BOII for the current gen consoles (now that my 360 is gathering dust). I want to see a launch map (or two) that has a serious amount of replay ability and improved matchmaking and for glitchers to be punished as well as dash boarders. Apart from that, I want to see the core of Zombies to be retained. What's your thoughts?

My little sister, Mitzi-the-Wiki, boosted her cog capacities a month ago and might have the whole fucking internet in her head. Says “Turicum” was Zurich’s maiden name, our town’s title back when we still spoke Latin and served as a Roman tax outpost.

Augmentation Sensation [ Concept / Theory ] OK so here is another theory/ Concept Hybrid I have With the way Black ops 3 seems to be going I have a theory that we might be getting some game modes having to do with Augmentation. I have 3 different sets of Game modes right here which I think are plausible for Black ops 3 Human Evolution: Human Evolution is a free for all style game mode in which players start off as Basic Humans and each time they get a kill, they get augmented. So in a way It’s similar to gun game. The first time you get Augmented a countdown timer begins. 30 seconds. If you do not get a kill in 30 seconds then your body will r…

I think when the game releases there will be many different types of MP characters, each with a specific skill and weakness. Bit like TF2 ( a lot like TF2, will the zombies be like Mann vs machine?). Here are the 9 classes as I see them: Humans: These 3 rely on gadgets to survive, and arn't as "perfect" as robots. But this also means their internal batteries are less prone to draining. Ruin- Gravity well class: Overdrive Seraph- Annihilator class: Combat focus Snap- Grapple class: Gung-ho (Works like in advanced warfare. The grapple is applicable on all maps, but only to snap Gung-ho does what it does in AW) Cyborgs: These get benefits from both robo…

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?

Hey everyone! Just a poll regarding the important question of which console the majority of you will play Black Ops 3 on! Personally, I will be playing on the Xbox One and would like to estimate the size of the zombie slaying population that will be there with me! Have an awesome day! =)
