The Giant
Re-awaken The Giant. Return to the secret facility where it all began, and strike at the heart of the zombie scourge.
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.

So I've noticed that there are 4 red lights on the walls in the teleporter c room, I thought they looked a little out of the ordinary, so i checked back on der riese, and they aren't there, maybe it's nothing, but it could be easter egg related... If anyone at all could give any speculation, that would be great, I've been losing sleep over this maps potential easter egg. The thing that concerns me the most is that nobody on youtube is covering the giant, even though the potential for an easter egg is there.

So in the giant there are a handful of interesting quotes I've heard. These quotes could potentially be audio cues on steps to the potential easter egg in the giant map, or a guide on what we have to do. First of all i want to mention the quote takeo uses in the opening scene. "We must awaken the test subjects", this quote is referenced a lot in game, and i think that it could be part of the main questline. Another quote is one I heard nikolai say, something along the lines of "me must destroy the german war machine(s)", i think the only possible thing that could be is the giant robot at the back of the map, because at this point, a…

So...Imma toot my own horn a bit. Aside from a hodgepodge of asterisks and other substitution symbols that flooded my brain the first time I saw The Giant's opening cutscene and the fate of old Richtofen, my first thought was the words "ACCEPT YOUR FATE! BEGIN ANEW!" A few of you may remember how the thing haunted me to the point that I made a teaser trailer for The Giant, in which I actually used it. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=bAm27_YsN4E I cannot say, then, that I was surprised last weekend when, playing solo as Richtofen, I heard him say "I must accept my fa…

Since the game came out I have been noticing a lot of really strange quotes between all of the players. Richtofen seems to be going insane again, and the other three seem unsure as always. Nikolai has killed "at least three Richtofens". It just seems that there is a ton of information in this quotes and was wondering if anybody could explain some of them?

What do people think of the new WW? I think it's a joke. It doesn't chain the whole bunch, or even more than like 4-5, and it chains super slow compared to the WAW/BO1 counterpart. The BO1 version was nerfed to chain only 10 whereas the WAW one did the whole 24 (no idea what the limit is for zombie spawns on BO3), but it counteracted this by fixing the 'Jugg zapper' effect present in WAW. The BO3 version was making crawlers on round 20 ffs! Also not a fan of the pink bits on the PAP version, but I could live with it if the thing actually worked like a proper Wunderwaffe! Rant over.

I only had a quick go on this so far but one of the things I heard was one of the characters (Nikolai?) saying something like "We were allies in all 3 world wars..." Sorry but I can't actually remember who said it and I didn't hear the response... Did anyone else hear this? I think Nikolai was talking to Richtofen. Did I hear it right? What are the implications for this? Were there three world wars in one of the zombies timelines? Were the wars fought between different sides?

Now this may sound crazy but I went kinda out of the box with this one. In Origins we have two kids Samantha and Eddie both living with Maxis. Samantha directly references Maxis as her father meaning Eddie is not son of Maxis. From their games we see that Eddie portrays the part of Richtofen controlling zombies and Samantha herself. Now the idea I have here is that Maxis trough timetravel and multiple dimensions we are facing in zombie story took young Richtofen under his wings. To teach him, to prepare him for a mission. Hold that thought and go listen the radios in Giant. Then post your thoughts.

I'm surprised no one has mentioned the new song on the map. It's a remix of Beauty of Annihilation. Two of the 'Press x for song' Brains are facing each other in the back of the kennels by the stairs. The remaining one is by Teleporter B in the room to the right.

It is with great disappointment that I relinquish my belief in the multidimensional theory and am now obligated to accept the canon fact that we are, and have been, in a multiverse; even more specifically, a parallel multiverse. The spoilers below will explain. Also, there is not just one universe being reborn. It has been clearly established that there are indeed many parallel, mirror universes. Simple as that. NOTE: IF YOU HAVEN'T ALREADY, I HIGHLY ADVISE YOU DISCOVER THIS YOURSELF. You will be glad you did. As Takeo would say, "patience is a virtue of the honorable!" Spoiler As many of you…

Things I am going to look for in BLOPS3Z - dog prints, there was 3 1 in the back teleporter room, one in the tower (use a scope), and one I cannot remember. This came very much later in an update - hanging man, could have been someone special could not have been however I am going to look at it because it was something I noticed - burnt man and boots, we all laughed and listened to the tape. still not something bad to look into with this different timeline change - flytrap, speaks for itself. - thumping near the flytrap teleporter, maybe a nod to the kino thumping. we never figured it out.I made a post about it in the kino posts if its still there. - the teleporters…

Good evening friends Zombies. I wanted to share with the community the global discovery of the 7-spoke The Giant. The video is in Spanish but you can clearly see 7 locations. Project Athena is a group of Spanish friends passionate about history. I hope that you share the video and mentions the discovery to your friends https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M_KdImjjla4

I'm not getting the game till next week since its my birthday and I have to make sure no one buys it for me, which I'm getting the hint they did. So knowing all the info is gonna be found by the time I gt my hands on it, I'm very open to searching for info and spoilers. And have been really looking forward to the Giant radios to start gaining some information that might start making sense ofthe weirdness that has taken over the story. So I've been searching for their release since yesterday and have heard a few. Spoiler One of the radios that sticks out is from Maxis talking about how Richtofen is theorizing time travel. Maxis says…

These are the steps required to obtain the Annihilator pistol. There is more to this EE so please fill in the rest as you guys go through it, thanks! The link below has the youtube guide along with other EE info! Start with an upgraded weapon (just stick it in the Pack a Punch), aim down through the fence at the :50 in the below guide and you’ll see a few green objects float through the air. These objects will guide you to certain points where you have to track down those items in this order: teleporter ZA (a monkey bomb), teleporter ZB (a teddy bear inside one of the water canisters), and the power switch (turn right and aim for th…

.... Those were her exact words... MAXIS is now the demonic announcer. This is revealed when activating the fly trap, as he now states instead of samantha's "I want to play a game, lets play HIDE AND SEEK" Instead, maxis will say the same thing fallowed by "Those were her exact words". The fly trap components ARN'T where they were anymore either! Even the monkey in the fireplace weilds nothing, however you can hear samantha crying from arround that area.... WHAT DOES IT MEAN?!?!

I am not sure if anyone has said about this yet but I have been wondering is black ops 3 the end of the zombies story all together? From the trailer for the giant they seem to have gone back in time and they are attempting to undo what richtofen (as well as maxis) have created. So this leaves us with the possibility of them visiting all the old maps and undoing certain events. This could lead to no zombies in the future for us. I could be wrong (I hope I am) but it seems like it is coming to an end or will it lead onto something much bigger.

I can't believe nobody has made a post about this yet, but from the way the characters speak in the Giant and what is shown, it would seem if the O4 hadn't came and intervened then Richtofen would go wake up the others and survive in Der Riese. Makes sense since the Wudnerwaffe had to be there first and then the characters survive their until they get to Shi No Numa right? So even though Shi No Numa was thought to become before, maybe it doesn't? But then, what is with the Kino radio where he says the Wunderwaffe overcharged the teleporter?

So in the latest trailer for The Giant, we are treated to a few more quotes from all the characters including some from good ol' fashioned O4 Ricthofen (the evil one) that indicate that he will in some capacity appear a few more times in the map as he did not say them before his demise in the intro. But one quote in particular intrigues me. "What is left of you now? Nothing!" This quote is heard about 11 seconds into the trailer and it very clearly spoken by the now deceased Ricthofen, so how can that be? There is a chance that this is just radio messages played without the static, but because of what and how he says it, I believe he is speaking to his younger self. So …

Alright, from the recent gameplay trailer we see MANY different aspects of the giant's gameplay and in my honest opinion.... I don't approve. Don't get me wrong, the map looks fun, but it appears that the giant is basically der reise again. Only, now we have -A more in-depth story -futuristic weapons -gumballs. -NO4 characters Aside from that... This is basically the same map, which I don't like. I would be ok with a similar layout, but I expected to see some better mechanics, a new boss, a new wonder weapon, some new perks, new areas, or generally ANYTHING truely new. This is basically the 3rd time we've gotten der reise, something should be new... …

Hello! I am Dr. SM Me, and welcome to Latenight-crackpot theories, where I on an irregular and random basis throw crackpot and somewhat groundless theories at the public and see what they throw back! Both metaphorically and physically! (Also it's 12:30 here so, yeah... Latenight) To start off this series here's a topic for you: Vril-ya initiative and dead richtofen. As revealed in the giant's opening cinematic, young richtofen blatantly shoots WW2 era richtofen smack dab in the face. Now, this obviously removes richtofen from the timeline, but there's another aspect yet to be considered. Richtofen received his madness from his first visit to the moon when he teste…

In the trailer you can see that the old version of Richtofen has a plain red band on his arm. This bugs me, Treyarch seem to be skipping details of historical accuracy in order to make their games more politically correct. Does having the Swastika cause the game to be banned in certain countries or something?

So I had a random thought today, The Giant must take place at night time since Der Riese had the eclipse, and this is before than. I went to check the intro video, and realized the eclipse is during The Giant as well. But how? We know after Richtofen sends away Maxis and Samantha, several things occur. We have Richtofen talking with Groph and Schuster. The zombies overrun Der Riese. Richtofen presumably wakens the others and goes to Shi No Numa, where he than returns to Der Riese, during an eclipse. Doing all those things, he would not have enough time to do them during a single eclipse? Could it be a different eclipse? Very unlikely as that would be months and months a…

hello guys, I understand the full zombies storyline, but i am a little bit confused with the story about The Giant from bo3. I heared that the crew (takeo,dempsey and nikolai) are teleported from origins to The Giant to stop the older richtofen. But if Origins is the first map in the storyline, how can they teleport to der riese which happens AFTER origins? And where does the younger richtofen come from when he staps out the teleport and shoots the older version of himself? I don't realy understand that part, anyone can explain this?

Is it just me or is anyone else disappointed with the fact that there are no achievements or trophies for this map? It looks like such an awesome map, but it'd be a bummer to do a cool Easter egg and not get any credit for it. It seems like a direction they could possibly be going in is remastering the Black Ops 1 maps with the younger characters. DLC pack 1 being Kino, 2 being Ascension, 3 being Shangri La, and 4 being Moon. That's just speculation, but I hope if they did, they'd get some kind of achievement list.
