Shangri-La
A legendary shrine lost in an exotic jungle. Where the undead lurk within a treacherous labyrinth of underground caverns, deadly traps and dark secrets.
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.

I seen that Alpha asked for these in another thread and I thought I would post them here for everyone to see. Another thing that I found interesting was that, when someone that isn't richtofen picks the stone up, when everyone dies richtofen says, "Now that you aren't using that stone, I'll be taking it, MUHAHAHAHAHAHAH!" That stone was something he seriously wanted.

Okay so ive been reading alot of threads about how the easter eggs for Ascension and Shangri la, and some COTD are not worth it, well you guys its not about the reward, your doing the easter eggs to build up on the story, the final map for black ops will most definentley have a HUGE reveal on most things, why you got the golden Rod, why you got the focusing stone, Why you Freed Gersch (which i highly suspect was just for fun) So dont focus so much on what you get focus more on wht you did!

Okay please no one rant about my name i get it, its stupid, But anyway There is no Storyline here you guys, look at it this way: Treyarch concentrated SOO much on the storyline in WAW, but than they realized that most people just like to get far in zombies and dont giva shit about the story line so they make little connections within the maps to make it so people can make theories and do the work for treyarch, ya see? i mean really Call of the dead had nothing to do with the storyline, they just had to make the map kuz the pic of it on der riese so they made it that you send the crew to Shangri la, and get the WunderWaffe, so people think its continueing from WA…

Like the title said I am a PS3 user. I am going to get Shangri-La when it comes out and I want to know this: How do you reset the Easter egg? I've seen loads of posts about doing the egg multiple times but no-one said anything about how to do it, then reset, and then doing it again (I know how you do it) Someone please tell me how you reset the egg so you can do it again, thanks

Ok the other day me and 3 of my friends were trying to do the EE it took us about 4 hours (we didn't know the steps too well, we also couldn't find one of the slabs on the wall...) we got all the way to the dynamite... we hit the gongs, shot the crystal and got the dynamite, the eclipse ended and we thought "ok we'll do the eclipse again" we did it then i fount out that i didn't have the dynamite, when the eclipse ended i lost it... we couldn't do it again because the PaP shrink ray had ran out of ammo.... I just wanted to know if this has happened to you: the eclipse ending after obtaining the dynamite and the losing it

Okay, so we all know the Easter Egg gives you all 7 perks forever. The problem with this on solo is the function of Quick Revive. If you always got Quick Revive back after being downed, the game would never end.

I thought Treyarch learned their lesson? I guess not. From a 'gameplay perspective' this easter egg is almost as useless as Ascension. Why does only 1 person get the 7 perks? It takes all 4 people to complete the easter egg, and only 1 person gets rewarded? Treyarch should seriously patch this. It's not even worth playing w/ 4 people to do the easter egg. Seriously, each person will have a 1000 kills in round 30, compared to having around 500 kills w/ 2 people. They should of made it where you can do the easter egg with any amount of players. So far, the call of the dead easter egg much, much BETTER. You only have to do the easter egg once!! Each time you ki…

My and my friends were doing the easter egg, and I got stuck waiting for the fire zombie to get the first gas thing for about 10 seconds, and noticed an odd symbol. In the circular stone door by the MPL near the Jugg/Speed Cola spawn. when you by it it rolls to the left and locks in place. But if you look there is a design on it's side in the doorway that looks like that one in CotD, I can't get picture up cuz my camera battery is dead, but if you see it you'll know what I'm talking about.

Maybe I've missed something here but I have a few questions that maybe someone can answer. 1. Why are there parts of the Russian Lunar Lander's as debree in a doorway in the power(water) room? 2. Why were the people mining 115, and what is with that cart of dead boars and the small tub of them in the M16 room? 3. Who created the shrink ray gun and why is it there?

Because Shangrila is a tight map, camping and working as a team will really make a difference to gain higher rounds. The camping spot is the cave underneath the waterfalls where you can find the MP5. Open the entrance in front of the waterfalls and leave the other end closed, the other end of the cave that leads to the bridge. This closed door is also your 'emergency exit'. Inside the cave, stay near the closed end and wait for zombies to line up entering the cave for obliteration. Napalm and Shrieker zombies can be dealt with as well because of concentrated fire. When the round ends, you can easily throw grenades up front to create crawlers. This spot h…

Something I noticed on day one, but haven't gotten around to sharing until now deals with the timer for pack-a-punch. If you look closely at the timer you see a skull. It looks like a Cosmic Silverback skull to me. If you don't know the Cosmic Silverback is the boss zombie on Dead Ops Arcade. His main level where you fight him off is jungle themed and looks very similar to Shangri-La. Thoughts? I also put together a video so you can see the skull better. u9n2y-mxuGg

If you have a team of 4 people who haven't done the CotD Easter Egg, will Richtofen say something different if he gets the Focus Stone? Because from what I've read, if you haven't done the Easter Egg on CotD, Richtofen doesn't have the Golden Rod. If this has been posted before, I apologize. Good luck my Codz Comrades. I love you all and I love this site. This place is the true Shambala. (A bit off topic...)

Located around the map are 4 player activated pressure plates with a monkey face/skull on them. I was playing with a friend so we only needed to activate 2 at one given time. As I said there is 4 of them: Right near the power activation, At the spawn near quick revive, the right side of the bridge over the water fall. 4th pad location: At a cave in on the tunnel down underground where the box is that shoots you up to the railcart. Players need to be stood on these pads at the same time for the stairs to raise to the pack a punch. You get about 1 minutes use out of it before you get thrown down the stairs. Sorry, I just haven't seen a…

Since people have complete the Shangri La EE, they have began to think that Richtofen could be the antagonist in the next map. If he is then we need a new character. So lets start at Kino... There is a blanked out portrait next to the 4 characters own. One of Takeos quotes is : "Perhaps what once was, is no more, but shall be again!" We can begin to relate this to Brock, who is the explorer in the Shangri La radios. He supposedly dies in the first radio you find, however, when you do the EE you go back in time, free him and save him. Double Ending Now onto my double ending theory... With Richtofen (possibly) being the antago…
