Shadows of Evil
Take to the streets of Morg City to combat the undead. Embrace the curse to uncover its mysteries.
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 it's been a few days now, but MrRoflWaffles made a video about one of the Specialist Abilities appearing in Zombies. More specifically the Specialist Reaper. The Ability Psychosis. What this does, is makes clones of the character. So you become invincible. I'll provide the video down below (Amazing find btw Milo). My question is what are you guys/gals thoughts on this. For one I think its pretty cool. Something new not to OP. My only hope/concern is when we initially purchase a Gumball. Hopefully it'll be stored in our inventory as opposed to just being activated right then.

I was browsing the COD Zombies subreddit when I saw someone post this image with the title "There is a slight resemblence, what do you think?" http://i.imgur.com/H3TfH21.jpg Many people generally accept the "guy" in the jumpscare image is Russman, or no one/nothing of significance. But after seeing this, I can see a resemblence... What do you think? Credit does to Reddit user TheResort.

(Black screen) "Your sins serve only as an invitation.... (Screen flashes to show a few pictures of morgue city, eventually zooming in on the ruby rabbit club) And invitation to an evil... Beyond your compression." The next scene shows Jessica singing onstage and attracting the attention of a man, who's face never comes into perspective, who's got a cigar in his hand and then moves to head around back. Meanwhile, Nero is preparing for his act, tossing knife after knife at his stage girl, every one narrowly missing her. Eventually he gives up and calls it a day. It's then that a man walks in, shoots the woman and whacks Nero in the head when he tries to run. Meanwh…

Ok, so in the SOE trailer we see, as to be expected, a box location, but no box. However we ALSO briefly see a green-blue box light color similar to the normal box light. So, what kind of box are we talking about? The MOTD one had a fiery empty location and a red-orange box-light. Origins had a green-blue box light, just as richtofen and sam had, but had an empty location more similar to mob of the dead's. So now we get a normal empty box location, but a green-and-blue box light... What's going on? It's HEAVILY hinted that this is hell... So why is (I presume) samantha in charge? Does she have dominion over the damned now? (That is an excellent title, someone use that…

It was really great seeing the perks and PaP have the static effect, to show they don't quite belong in that map. Since it looks like Shadows of Evil seems to be in a similar situation, do you think the static effect will return? If it is indeed connected to MotD in a "purgatory/afterlife" kind of way, it would be a great way to show the connection between the maps. Plus those chime effects of the jingles were pretty good!

Ok, so first a quick shout out to resortified on youtube for finding this out. Many of us have found these "purple fountains" and assumed that they are connected to the kraken mode much like afterlife mode is connected to the wall panels. However, I don't think this is the case. If you look at the reveal, and I'm amazed no one has found this yet, there's a trash can! When the cop is running by it in the first frame, it has a lid on it, and it appears to have tentacles poking out of it. HOWEVER once the kraken form is taken, there's no more lid on the trashcan! You can view his video for finding this out. Any ideas on this?

Hello everyone! I wanted to bring up a prettyimportant point that seems to keep popping up. The description for the map says that this will be a massive new world. Naturally, this can mean a few locations linked together like tranzit or like origins, where each location has its own specific theme or function. This leads to me to believe we could be looking at a Left 4 Dead style campaign. Havent played L4D? Basically, there are several zombie campaigns that have 4-5 missions and each mission has a set location. You can play through the entire section or merely choose a specific mission. I do not want that is zombies person…

Ok, so what MANY people have completely ignored about SOE, is that there IS actually a transport system. We HAVE confirmed this based off of the description of the map on COD's website. What we don't know is EVERYTHING else: What will it look like, will it move on it's own, do you have to pay to get on, will this aspect be completely broken and offer an aspect to the map no one wants? All these questions and more deserve speculation. Theorize away!

Hello everyone at CoDZ. Forgive me, for this is the first time I've ever actually started/attempted to start a new Topic. I'm not even positive I'm posting this in the relevant SubForum. With that being said let's begin. So we've all seen the SoE trailer, more specifically the part when one of the 4 characters (Nero) turns into some type of Cthulu creature. When I first saw the trailer I presumed it was an effect from Dr. Montys Gumball Machine. After talking back-n-forth with a friend the other day , I started thinking it over again. What if it's another form of AfterLife from MotD or an AfterLife 2.0. We know that the 2 maps are a direct sequel or directly connecte…

It's been 20 hours since Milo uploaded his video on this, and I don't understand how there hasn't been a topic on it yet. In the Shadows of Evil trailer, there is a single frame with information we have not yet discussed. The location of Der Riese, Lower Silesia, is mentioned on a poster. "Silesia Stahlwerk" What do you think about this? It could of course be a "easter egg" in the sense that it was put there "just for fun", for us to discover and laugh about, but nah, not with Treyarch. Milo had some great theories about it in his video, but I want to hear input on it from the gods of codz.

Ok, so I was playing Origins as Dempsey and I was about to hit the box, first a scoripion evo, then dual five sevens, everything was normal until I got a raygun, what he said after taking it made me raise an eyebrow, he said "Oh, I've seen this before, I think it was in a comic!". Now if you don't remember, the weasel from MOTD was a comic book artist and actually drew the raygun, this right here shows that Origins and MOTD are in the same universe, and SOE is in the same universe as MOTD, meaning Origins and SOE are also in the same universe, please write below what you think this could mean, thanks for reading . P.S in Origins near the fire portal you can hear 1930's-4…

So, lady and gentlemen, what IS this creature we fight in the new maps? It's got 3 heads and appears to dispense bot-flies. Place your bets now and you can be the lucky owner of a NEW ABSOLUTELY NOTHING! I'm open to more suggestion options should they arise. ENJOY!

I saw the shield in the trailer and I figured that it would probably be a build able. Did anyone else see anything else that could be a build able from the trailer? I was not a fan of the ones in the black ops 2 maps. They made it feel too task driven in my opinion and less about just running around and killing zombies.

Nero Nero Nero... I want you all to remember that name, from what Ive seen this character has been shown the most and I know this a stretch but sits the highest on every poster and is a bit larger on each poster and it seems that he has the darkest backround compared to the other characters. Now we all know he is a magician and from all the references and people using the word cursed and mark of the beast and from trailers and pictures maybe Nero was also doing an abundance of dark Magic on the side. In every group of 4(except for the COTD cast) there is a character who stands out for some dark or a meaningful reason Richtofen from the O4, Stuhlinger from the N4 and The…

As of the current situation, the connection between Lovecraftian horror and Shadows of Evil cannot be denied. However, though many are familiar to the pop culture icon that legendary creatures like the great Cthulhu and the Deep Ones of Innsmouth, several other lesser known races have fallen by the wayside in the public eye. Chief among those being the ancient evil Nyarlathotep. It was my original intent to create a much more detailed and elegant follow up to help paint this very complex and living world that I absolutely love and have come to adopt as my own. Lovecraft has always been my favorite author, and I have been absolutely fixated with him ever since I read The L…

As we've all seen, there's at least 2 swords in this map: The one being held by the boxer in the clip with the flying red sword, and the one being thrown. As it stands we've seen the sword(s) do a few things. We've seen the cop swing a sword like a melee weapon. We've seen someone throw a sword like a hells redeemer. AND we've seen the songstress drive the sword into the ground like a gravity spike. So here's what I think. I think that each character might get a different ability from each sword, unlike the typical Each-weapon has a different power, now we have multiple of the same weapon, but the power is the same depending on the character using it. I sa…

That is not dead which can eternal lie.And with strange aeons even death may die. Alrighty, So I'm hearing a lot of people call the new special zombies "Aliens," but I just don't think that's the case. Naturally, as this map is "connected to MotD" in some way, my initial thought turned to something more demonic. I think that most people saw a resemblance between these creatures and those of extinction, but I believe they were more so inspired by Lovecraftian horror. "Lovecraftian horror is a subgenre of horror fiction that emphasizes the cosmic horror of the unknown (and in some cases, unknowable) more than gore or other elements of shock, though these may still be p…

Ok, so now we are CONFIRMED to have sliding in this game. So what does that mean for PHD flopper? I have 3 solutions: -1: PHD flopper is replaced with PHD slider and new effects are given on top of the splash damage and fall damage protection. -2: PHD flopper enables the ability to dolphin-dive. So once you pick up the perk your movement changes to holding B and running results in a dolphin dive. -3: They tease us again with a PHD flopper machine we won't be able to access. What are your thoughts?

This is the best image I could get of the PaP camo for SoE, if anyone can get a clearer image then please go ahead I think it's going to be a gold and black color scheme with black being the base and all the (floral?) design pattern will be gold. What does everyone else think?

Alright, so I've been in the chat room and I think I'm onto something. So the trailer referenced sin, right? Femme Fatal- Lust. Using her body to get what she wants, she manipulate men with her beauty. The Magician- Pride. Confident that nothing can stop him, this man is arrogant and believes everything will go his way. The Boxer- Wrath. This man doesn't seek to win, he seeks to inflict damage on people- unleash his wrath on them. The Cop- Greed. This man will take any job if he gets the proper bribe. Now, bear in mind these classifications are based purely off of the character profiles and I don't know anything more about them. Yeah, not exactly seven sins yet but, …

Ok, so we have 3 confirmed gum-balls right now. -Purple solid: Allows one to become oblivious to zombies NOTE: In the trailer I believe these were flopped, it'd make more sense if the RED explosion when a zombie's HAND touches you to link up with the RED gumball with the hazard triangle and a zombies HAND inside of it. Then the ? would link to random drops appearing. -Red- Causes a high-powered AOE attack when the player is struck. -Purple Swirl- Causes drops to appear randomly. Now... I don't know about you guys but these effects are... SUPER over-powered. I DON'T think gum-balls are "Perks" in this sense. I think the gum is more of a buff that can be app…

As you may all know, those monsters shown in the newest trailer kinda showed up all of a sudden without any real context behind. While I wasn't really looking forward to the monster, it's just probably another special round. It does suck that everyone thinks that the monster will "ruin" Black Ops Zombies by turning it into Extinction, but if you dig a little deeper, they make total sense for them to be there, as well as for the sudden Shadow Man intrusion. In short, the monsters come from Agartha itself (or the Aether, kinda rusty on my zombie knowledge). The reason for me to think this is that the Shadow Man seems like an entity who neither wants to help the SoE peop…
