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.

Ok, so lets begin with all that shiz after buried. Maxis won, or Richtofen won, don't make much difference to me. But at this point samantha was all like ok, world's decimated either way: time for plan B. Plan B was to return to the point in time in which the O4 met the first time (origins) and bring them forward in time to the events of "the giant". Here, what typically happens is richtofen would go to the moon find samantha in the pyramid, and then zombies would start rioting, maxis would be summoned, and then killed. But now we have a few issues caused by samantha's medaling: 1: Maxis is now mostly dead. And his rotor form restricts him from having children. So…

Ok, so in the giant, we see Tank, Takeo, and Young richtofen all holding the same pistol, which generally is received as the starting pistol: HOWEVER, the concept-art-movie-poster depicts the MAUSER being used. Furthermore the ORIGINAL picture of BO3's reveal (back when everyone thought it would be WAW 2) showed a pair of futuristic mustang and Sallys. So, my question: Will we be able to have different starting weapons? I mean I'm all for this idea. The mauser offers a completely different strategy to the classic mustang and sally, and that it's self may vary from the NEW mustang and sally! So what if this is one of the factors depicted by XP progression? You u…

The question I am asking is relating to the one and only Elena Siegman. So since the giant has the young O4 in it as playable characters do you think we will hear her beautiful voice again? That would excite me beyoned believe, simply because the songs from WaW and BO1 in which she participated in got me pumped to kill zombies. The songs in BO II are good as well for the most part but they don't get me as excited. Or do you want Eminem to return? (Just kidding)

Hello! So, with the teaser of The Giant, i figured it was time for me to step out of the shadows again since my activity with the Call of The Dead Easter Egg. So, after replaying the trailer multiple times, and completing origins multiple times, I couldn't help but post my friend and I's findings and theories. First, regarding The Giant trailer, there's quite a particular topic up for debate right now: Lack of the swastikas on Richtofen and the Teleporters. Personally, we don't believe this was just because it was a world release. Why? If you look at the previous World Release trailers for Der Riese and Kino, they didn't censor them until the region specific trailers r…

Based on my impression of Richtofen's demeanor...I decided to buckle down and try a remix, presented from the perspective of what may have been Richtofen's final thoughts, suppored by Avenged Sevenfold's 'Nightmare,' featured in 'Moon,' a song I have always felt is appropro for Richtofen.

In the cutscene of Origins Eddie wishes their characters to be real and Sam says her dad has a plan. Now in the Giant trailer Richtofen from an entire different universe has appeared at the portal, which could mean that Maxis was trying to bring those 4 heroes into the real world, having already brought in the first 3 and Richtofen seemed to be the last one. Old Richtofen seemed to know who was coming out of the portal because he knows what Maxis was doing. Maxis and Sam have been sent to the other universe with the storyline we've been playing on previous maps with Sam in control etc. That's why Richtofen in Origins didn't know who Sam was because she's from an entire di…

I just listened to a bunch of radios again to try and make "The Giant" trailer a little clearer for myself mainly, because I am even more confused than I was before. Everything below is basically all theory, based on the radios I've analyzed. Feel free to correct me, I'm still learning the storyline. Please, add your own thoughts to help make this new trailer clearer, because despite what I've done below, it's still a brain scrambling concept to understand. This post is going to be a mess, addressing different things at random, so forgive me for that. Thanks for reading (and/or correcting my mistakes). You hear the radio which supposedly kicks off "The Giant" trailer…

Hi everyone! So I just finished watching the trailer and I realized a few points that some people have missed or haven't considered. -The rest of the Old Crew: Where are they? Shi no numa was the first place they were all introduced and from there, they somehow made it to Der Reise. When Takeo says to "awaken the rest of the test subjects", is it possible he didnt mean the Old Crew, but rather something else? -The clock STOPPED: Notice that once Maxis and Samantha are locked into the teleporter, the clock suddenly stops. Weird right? But in the original Der Reise, it does not stop. It merely keeps looping back to 1:15.Why is this important? Because there was a specif…

Just curious as to other peoples' thoughts on the clock. A lot of people have said that the clock stops at 1:15. When I look at the clock it looks like 2:15 AM on a 24 hour clock. The hour hand is after the two. The minute hand is on six, which is a qurter of the way around, hence 15 minutes. Am I reading this wrong? Sorry if this has been mentioned but couldn't find any references.

I was listening to old hidden radios and realized something. Has anyone ever noticed the air raid sirens from the end of origins are also In the hidden radio messages with maxis doing the first few tests with the teleporters? So the origins cutscene is actually from the universe of the original timeline....?

I know Richtofen died but how can there be a second richtofen but he looks older than the other richtofen i think maybe richtofen invented a time machine (or cloning device) to see his future self but instead he killed him sure he looks diffrent they both have the same voice but the first richtofen was accualy a diffrent model (world at war model) but this takes place before der rise (the giant) but its the orgins crew we will be playing as. so we will be playing before der rise happend as the orgins characters.

Anyone else get the feeling that the young crew are really experienced time travelers in The Giant trailer? Like pretty much everything they say points to them already knowing the events of the future, even though supposedly they're from WWI. "Do you know who I am?" "Yeah, we know." "A great evil approaches. There is a chain of events that must be set in motion." "The future hangs by a thread. We must awaken the test subjects." "Goddamit Richtofen I thought we were done with this!" " "Only a fool would dare to change history." "I am no fool. What I do, I do only to secure a better tomorrow." My guess is that they're like a cleanup squad, chasing one step behind the…

I have not seen anyone point this out. Remember in Black Ops 1 & 2 where some of the loading screens had "previews" of the next map's loading screen? For example, Call of the Dead's loading screen had a small bit of Ascension's loading screen on the top left corner and a bit of Shangri La's on the right and another example being Die Rise and Buried (to an extent). Anyway back to my point, on the Buried loading screen, there appears to be blueprints on the top right corner and what map do we know that has blueprints for a loading screen? Der Riese. AKA The Giant. (As Der Riese is German for The Giant for those who didn't know) Origins' loading screen was not a "…

So I'm sure you've all seen the screenshots from The Giant, the new version of Der Riese. In the screenshot below you can see that they are holding futuristic pistols, which at this point in the timeline shouldn't be there... any thoughts?

Hi everyone! The new trailer just came out for the bonus map "The giant". Check it out on Matuzz's post. I think this is some serious mind fuckery. Like, to the max. However, as i have heard from many time theorists, when you affect any point of time, you can alter everything, from changing the future to changing the past, the result can be changed if messed with. This was Nikolai's point. This is a great way for Treyarch to clear their board. Now they can start over with this story line. This also proves that Origins is the one true beginning...of something at least. On a side note, can anyone get me a picture of all 4 of them jumping at the end? Im really bad wit…

Hello everyone it feels great to be back! My name is YGM and I am electric jesus' cousin (some of you may know already), now I'm not known for posting threads like this and I don't think I have in two years since my perk a cola jingle thread. Now I may not have the greatest vocabulary, sentence structuring and grammar skills like EJ but hear goes nothing... Okay so from the trailer they actually give us a big jump of the story just from those two minutes of footage now I've been a lurker for a reason to hear other peoples ideas, so I want to know where do you think we could go from this? Could Treyarch do a two map DLC next or combine a map. My theory was that "the gia…

What if Origins Richtofen actually was the Richtofen we play as through World at War up to Moon? I know that sounds crazy because they have different personalities and are from different times, let alone different dimensions. But quotes in the trailer and what happens just generally point to it for me. First, Takeo's quote "You need to awaken the test subjects." Clearly, he's talking about the original crew, Prime Takeo, Prime Dempsey and, Prime Nikolai. Richtofen wouldn't just DO what Takeo says, so why did he during World at War? Through his own free will? Richtofen seems a bit too cocky to think he needs help. The next thing: Origins Richtofen shooting Prime Richtofen.…

Hello Codz members! I spent a good amount of time on this theory and wanted to run it by the brilliant minds here at codz. I am pretty sure I already had someone point out an issue with my timelines. I am a strong believer right now that zombies exists in a multiverse. There are many different timelines that impact each other in different ways. What someone pointed out was "what about the difference in the world at war maps and the black ops 1 remakes?" Treyarch did say every map is cannon which means that there is some universe where our original fab four went to nacht and verruckt! I know this isn't the newest of information, but I really wanted to hear everyone's thou…

So a lot has been said about "The Giant" and how 2 richtofens? Well we do see blood vials on Edward Richtofen is origins. What if thats the link between good and bad richtofen? Sam brings the origins crew to der riese to try and stop old richtofen who used the link to teleport from moon the aether to the past. the end result...richtofen sets up to reset? Now the vials, maybe the "evil" that possessed richtofen. the same evil that was in the prison? just a thought. thoughts? theories?

Hey guys! So today with the world reveal of Black Ops III: Zombies we've seen some really really exciting stuff!! With the trailer for Shadows of Evil, new information from Comic-Con and the main thing i'm speaking of today the leaked "The Giant" Intro Cinematic and how I believe it'll be alluding to what could be happening all through Black Ops III Zombies. First i'm calling upon my fellow Comic Book geeks, how many of you know of Marvel's "Secret Wars" stories, in which multiple Universes(Marvel Universe, Ultimates Universe, etc) are colliding and are brought to a world called Battleworld(which is made up of a clump of each universe) and every character from every un…

So, I'm finally sitting down and putting some thoughts on paper! The question now echoes from the haunted halls and stairwells of Alcatraz Prison, on across the Nazi Zombies universe: "Where are we going from here? Do we let go of all we know?" What we just saw was one of the most mindblowing developments in the Zombies storyline. Young Dempsey, Nikolai, and Takeo have broken into Der Riese and confronted Edward Richtofen immediately following his betrayal of Dr. Ludvig Maxis. Despite their warnings, Richtofen re-opens the teleporter, revealing his younger self, apparently filling him with joy and awe. However, the look on his face moments before his younger self su…

Basically, I believe The Giant is supposed too end the story for the original three characters (I think this has already been confirmed but I digress). Quite simply, my theory is this: After Origins, the survivors realised that although they had closed one loophole in the storyline by returning Maxis to Agartha and reuniting him with his daughter, another still remained- when Richtofen teleports Maxis and Samantha, Maxis will end up dead and Samantha in control of the zombies again, meaning that they group would have too travel to the future, to 1945, to prevent future Richtofen from enacting his plans. To do this, Richtofen offers to stay behind and, using the Elem…
