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.

Shadows of Evil Music EE
by Guest- 3 replies

Now I know everyone will know about the music EE of Snakeskin Boots (I liked the named Wicked Fight better) which is activated by 3 old timey radios around the map. One on the bottom floor of the Ruby Rabbit on a table, one a desk up top in the Anvil and one on a bench near a Gobblegum machine in the Footlight. Now what I have seen nobody mentions is that there are different versions of the song depending on the activation order. I cannot exactly be sure as I have only just clicked this together but I have had the regular version of the song and the instrumental now. I had the instrumental in my first game actually, me and my friends were sad because we thought they didn'…

After playing a lot of solo, working out the best starting beast modes etc, I think I have it nailed to get easy PaP on round 3. Not for the fact I need it then, but so I can get to the swords done before the Servant is even available, so that those 2 tasks aren't getting in the way of each other. This is a guide highlighting my most commonly used beast mode routes, sorry I don't have any video, I would like to add them to make this guide clearer in the future Round 1 For the first ritual you'll want to start by opening Junction immediately and using the Stamin' Up Beast Mode spot. Usually I just don't turn Stamin' Up on, because it screws me…

So.... Last night I was playing solo SoE at about round 17. I already obtained the Sword, AS and was in the process of upgrading my sword. I was Nero so I picked up the egg at Neros place, attempted to activate the floating book, to no avail so I proceeded to pick up the egg from the ghostly floater, went to Neros blood seal and activated it, Margwa spawned in and a zombie caught me from behind as my shield broke which downed me soon as I killed the Margwa with my sword. I Quick revived and flew to the Quick Revive perk machine to pick up my perk again. Made my round around the map on the same round and got my other perks. I then went back to Neros layer and tri…

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…

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.

Just thought it should be noted, but it seems as if when you have the margwa mask, you can not interact with items. Example: the motd laundry note, free mega gobblegum, and even the parts for the burlesque easter egg song "cold hard cash" either this is a glitch that needs fixed or there is something we are to do with the margwa heads to be able to regain interactions with said objects. Figured I would give other players a heads up so they make sure they can get their margwa masks last so they don't interfere with other easter eggs.

Something brand new, don't believe it has been seen before. Looks like just a fun easter egg to me, not necessarily any more to it in my opinion. If nothing else, it is exciting to see things still being found. Full credit goes to Glitching Queen for this find. Couldn't get the embed to work, so here's a direct link.

I am looking for where we are discussing this new info , so a redirect would be nice. Otherwise, I'll start off... NoahJ recently had a friend (with video) of purple gatekeepers chasing him during the shadow man battle. There was also a difference in the "normal" color of the gatekeepers, To noahj , normally they are sleepy purple and red awake (i may have this backward or wrong) but in the friend video they were opposite , or at least they were red while asleep and purple ones would spawn and chase him and leave the purple mark on the floor like in the flag step. I have also heard rumors of a purple margwa heart (a second margwa heart) but i…

I was waiting for a few friends outside the boxing room to start the ritual and I was jumping around exploring the map. Just near the outside of the ritual room there is a boat turned upside down. I was touching the rear right corner of the boat and jumped, then a pop up on my screen said "Hold (Square) to recharge shields". I Held square and nothing, that I know of, happened. The pop up was still there no matter how many times I tried to jumped and hold square. I went back to the same place my next game of zombies to see if it was still there and it wasn't, and hasn't been there since. I would've taken a picture of it if I had known I wouldn't see it again. Has anyone se…

Yo slaughterer of Zombies, I have got a theory about who is this corpse, near the Ruby Rabbit, and who killed him. I think you all know the corpse of this man who get killed near the Ruby Rabbit ( http://imgur.com/D4EaMCP ), with a letter wearing the inscription « M » (or « W »), but, I think nobody knows that the little table near the corpse, is the same that… The table of the photographer of Jessica. Also according to 83457, it's nothing because all the stuff of the cutscenes are in game. For me, this corpse is the editor of the Icarus cartoon of the Weasel. After completing the easter-egg, Weasel is allowed to left the Purgatory ("The cycle is bro…

So while playing SOE I always seem to play as Jessica Rose not sure why the game gives me her, but suffice to say I have heard a lot of her audio. Playing a game recently she said something that got me thinking I was just starting the PaP rituals and picked up Nero's Pen and Jessica's audio was "Hey I fount a fountain pen, maybe I can use it to pick a lock or something?" I'm not sure if it was just a throwaway line, but maybe there's more too it! It also has me thinking if there is, perhaps there are things we can do with the items we pick up prior to using them in the rituals. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o…

It's a real shame that the SOE Easter Egg can't be completed solo. Me as a PC player, it can be really hard to find people who want to take a game serious and the playlists can be empty at times and still to this day I haven't completed the SOE EE. I know every step, I do it every game on solo up to the point where I can do anymore without the need of the other players. I would like to see them add in that the EE is complete on solo when you kill the shadow man as that is most of the EE done anyway. I was looking forward to collecting all the EE icons and I have them for every map apart from SOE... Does anyone else feel my pain and think they should make it achi…

So earlier today I was yet again searching on how to Upgrade this damn Apothicon Servant. At the time in the game I was Jackie "Fn" Vincent and I had the Kor-Maroth. Also I had gotten my *Ding*Ding*Ding*Ding* during my 4 Rituals. Eventually getting back to the point where the Gun is taken out of the box. So I had a crawler and walked the entire map, "Slowly" observing everything. When I got to the Canal District something began to catch my Eye. Something I hadn't seen anyone until now mention before. So I saw a bunch of these "Puddles" on the Ground in the Canal District. One of them caught my eye near the Arch-Ovum Circle. I…

So shadows of evil is one of the coolest maps to date, but I fear it may also be the most significant. I should start off by stating THIS IS A THEORY. Not fact. Possibly cannon, but can't yet be proven so. The nature of this theory stems from this: This is the orb from moon, it's a weird little ball that for some reason is lodged in the ground on moon. Using an excavator one can uproot the ball, and bring it to THIS panel: Here's where things get interesting. I purpose the ball from moon IS the summoning key. Look at shadows of evil, it's a c…

* Update * I wanted to go ahead and update this Thread, in relation to actually being able to upgrade the "Apothicon Servant". I feel it's the most important. Now in the past I've made mention of games I've played, where I would spend 100k or more on the Mystery Box, and not once would I ever receive the "Apothicon Servant". Well up until now, I never really knew why this would happen, & It's very possible that I still don't. However, while playing earlier once I built the Apothicon Servant, immediately I bought the Vesper (don't think this matters) off the wall, ultimately replacing the "Apothicon Servant", therefore putting it back into th…

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 one week later, with the Easter Egg believed to have been completed (finally) and most of the little things now surfacing I'd like to share how I feel about the map, and I'd love to hear how you guys feel yourselves. I'll break this down into a few sections starting with the Easter Egg i…

I changed this thread name from "More Zombie Maps Inside" to Moar of SoE to align with my other "Moar..." threads. [Updated for change of Gobblegum Machine availability. Always having access to GGs is a huge boon for Survival map builds. Some maps may state 'possible GGm location', that now means that a GGm WILL be there]. [The ?Box now always starts in the First Area of WF or Canal Districts, or in the Perk area of FL. Originally, it would spawn at any of the 6 nonSubway locations. Maps like Juggerton/Homeboy that say 'possible Box Location" will now definitely not have a ?Box, unless it has been moved since start, which is unlikely in those build…

Back again, It seems someone has figured out what the Margwa Heads are for, it appears that they may function like the Golden Helmet from Origins, and if you have one you don't get downed automatically if a Margwa slams you. https://www.reddit.com/r/CODZombies/comments/3urzo6/soe_margwa_head_solved/ Can't confirm and the poster didn't give proof, I thought I would post through.

Hey all, When Shadows of Evil was released, I'd imagine there was a lot of chaos concerning the whole story of the map. I mean, we were introduced to so many extraordinary things at that moment, I could totally see it might have overwhelmed the community. We tried to explain what was going on by looking to the largest, most striking and weird things. What is the Ancient Order of the Keepers? Why is this realm twisted? What are those Lovecraftian creatures constantly chasing us? But the map has so much detail in everything. And I think that if we understand the smaller things, we might be able to solve what the heck exactly is going on actually. To…
