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 searched for a topic about this but I couldn't find one. On the map that is on the loading screen in Shangri-La, I spotted a Black Sun, or a Schwarze Sonne, which is a Nazi occult sympol that was referenced in many of the zombie maps. However it was mainly mentioned in Der Riese. The Schwarze Sonne is where the tornado is. The tornado is touching down in the center of it. See the resemblance between the two symbols? What is really interesting is that the two maps where the Black Sun appears both have one thing in common... Solar Eclipses, which is the literal form of a Black Sun. I think this means that there was Nazi involvement in Shangri La, probably Group 93…

So before black ops 2 came out jimmy zielinski and others tweeted about the shangri la mountains and teasing us about them. Has anyone figured out what they meant or were they just trying to get us back into zombies before the game came out?

I have an idea of the location of Shangri-la. The mountain everyone was talking about, Shang to area 51, both are evidence. I was thinking to myself, how did the group get from Shangri-la to area 51. Then, it hit me and it all made sense! The twitter post about the mountains! Lower Nevada is covered with mountains! Area 51 is in nevada somewhere in the desert! The loading screen when shang is getting transported to somewhere, it is getting transported to the mohave desert! That's how they found it! they climbed the mountains and found area 51! That's what everyone was talking about "the mountains"! This is my theory, anyone agree? comments? questions? concerns? :D

I am assuming you already know how to horde up zombies otherwise it would be an entirely different topic. Alternative to kicking is 1. Use Mustang and sally (preferred way when you are solo) 2. Throw semtex first and then shoot (preferred with with 2 players..) 3. Shoot Ray gun after you shoot.

Long time no see. I would like to submit about a random park bottle on Shangri-la. When the monkey gets a max ammo, he changes it to various items. The items include the random park bottle. But when he gets an item except with a max ammo, is cannot be changed to the random park bottle. At this time, I have thought whether it can be changed to the random park bottle again, when he gets the random park bottle. I report the answer. As a result, the monkey can change the random park bottle to the random park bottle again. The video is as follows. I made this video. ZZwjsXwjNGA If this has already been reported by someone, I'm sorry for it.

In anticipation of Black Ops 2 I've been playing the hell out of zombies lately. I've played all the maps a million times but I still come across players that appear to know all there is to know about zombies except a great strategy for Shangri La. After a quick search through this forum thinking I would find this strategy already written up I came up empty. So I've got some time, servers are down due to hurricane Sandy, and I want people to start playing this map better. Most don't like this map due to the tight paths and the appearance that there is nowhere to run a proper rape train. Ahh young one... let me enlighten you. For once it's not about rape trains until about…

I noticed that when you stand on one end of the bridge - the one opposite the side with the perk and the PM63, where the PaP statue is - no zombies will come out of the tunnel even if the door is open. Superhands noticed this as well, as in his solo strategy guide, it recommends that you spend a couple early rounds camping there to point build. As I did this, I thought to myself: "hey, I wonder how long I could keep this up". And so today, I decided to put that wondering to the test, in what I call: The Shangri-La Camping Trip Challenge Rules: - Every round after three (I'll let you stay in the spawn room a bit to build points) you must spend th…

Okay so with Black Ops and its subsequent map packs being out for some time now, and Black Ops II and the next generation of zombies creeping up, I am unsure whether or not purchasing this map pack would be worth it. It seems as if this map had the least positive reaction from the community, so I'm unsure if it would be worth it in the sense of quality. Also, and I know this is a bit of a stretch, there is always a possibility that all the maps from Black Ops may be included somehow into Black Ops II, so I don't want to waste my money on something I could get for the newer game. However, I still feel like I'm missing out on a huge chunk of the zombie storyline, especially…

Over the past months i have noticed that Shangri la has became a lot more popular map on PS3. In January or so there would be about 300-800 players in the Playlist and i've noticed seeing them in the high thousands quite a few times now. I haven't played it in a while, and sort of switched off from zombies. Has anything changed?

Hey guys, so here's a vid of some footage from my recent run to 100 on Shangri La that I finished last Tuesday, including a full playthrough of round 99 as well as a bit of easy early rounds strategy. This AK strategy, which becomes effective at 40+, is basically a spin-off of the co-op AK strategy, to round 100 solo with 0 downs until suicide at 100. Myself, Choppernator and Tom have been discussing this strategy for the past week, and all of our ideas have been rolled into the strategy you're seeing here, credit to those guys for this as well as myself. Only 3 Shrink Gun recycles throughout the whole game, Max Ammos were dropping quite regularly. 0:00 Ear…

•Shangri la is a gartha, A gartha is a planet within a planet, its what is said to be the center of the earth a Gartha is said to have the perfect race and when hitler was in power the nazis tried and travel to the center of the earth and have the perfect race . Shangri la holds the fountain of youth which is said to be underground in the center of earth . We now that the fountain of youth has to be around shangri la because the 31-79 JGb215 makes zombies Smaller and in a baby like form do there's no doubt that the gun was probably made from the fountain of youth mixed with 115 to enhance the powers of the water.

Hey guys, seeing as you still 'argue' about the whole Shangri La mountain thing, I looked at Tac's thread about Shangri La being on Mars, honestly at first - I just couldn't buy it - but it sure got my attention. So I got on SL, noclip'd to the Mountain and, well, I couldn't make anything out of it. Then it accured to me that the answer might just be in the game's texture files. So I took a texture viewer and started going through Shangri La's texturs (of which there are A LOT) but one thing quickly stood out, the texture was named "gp_ztem_mars_vista_card", I opened the file and guess what - It's the mountain everybody is talking about - titled MARS in …

When you look at the moon in Der Riese it is infront of the sun which means that there is a solar eclispe on that day, Der Riese takes place in 1945, in 1945 there was a few solar eclipses. When you do the 1st step of the easter egg in Shangri-La you can see there is a solar eclispe. And this could show us the date of Shangri-La's eclispe takes place as the same time as Der Riese (which would make the character in two places at once). If this is true, it would suggest that Shangri-La is on Earth and takes place in 1945 when the eclipse is active. So yeh I was pritty happy when I found this but I did not 100% find this out my self this thread got me thinking…

According to the developer Shangri La is shrouded in mystery... We know the myths and stories of this Paradise, but in the Nazi Zombie storyline what significance does Shangri La have? Most of the threads in this section of the forum focus on the Major easter egg of this map but we are failing to recognize the smaller and possibly more important eggs. -The Mining facility. -Bloody body bags. -Blue canisters found in Kino and Five. -Strange carvings found everywhere including Swastikas. -If the gateway to Agartha was here did the Nazi's want anything to do with it? -The Altar with Richtofens name on it. -Why didn't Maxis know of this supply? He s…

Search didn't turn up results, so I'm not sure if this is known or not. I was playing Shangri-La split-screen with myself for the easter egg haha (we didn't have a 4th person). I noticed that just before the game began, in the black screen after the loading screen but before you can see, I heard a teleporter noise. The same noise as the one at the beginning of the Kino trailer. B7b6EkTNOPA I tested it again but split-screening with just myself this time, and it only seems to occur when doing split-screen, not solo or online play by yourself. It's not really a big deal because we already know they teleport there, but it was the first time I'd heard it, and n…

Im hearing a lot of, its on mars, or, on the moon. Well ive been thinking, and the biggest factor for me is the whole gravity issue. Its just doesnt seem right to me. So ive been working on my own theory. I started out with the idea, hey maybe on the loading page for Moon, it ISNT the four heroes. MAYBE it's the crew from the Apollo 11 mission researching the temple, like some Transformer stuff. Eh? Eh? But then i was like, Wait a tick, there were only 2 Astronauts that actually walked on the moon during that mission, so i was missing 2 people. I trashed that theory. Then i went back to the drawing board. Studied the loading page, then i was like. Der Rie…

I have investigated the shrieker's health for each round. I would like to report it. The shrieker's health was measured by a default knife. The knife can give a damage of 150 point. I measured the health using it until R27. Although the health will be the multiple of 150, I think that the default knife can be used to measure the health, as that is enough larger than 150 point. This means small error bar. The approximation was obtained by the measured values. This method is the same to the measurement for number of zombies for each round. Figure shows the shrieker's health for each round. The result indicates that the shrieker's health is proportional to the cube…

why would the devs at treyarch hint at a secret nearly 2 years after the games release this seems a bit odd and if the big secret is mars who cares why does it make a difference if its on mars or in someones dream who cares as long as treyarch keeps making new zombie maps its a game in the game world u can pretty much do anything including fighting on other worlds .....by the way there is a glitch on the mountains i was split screening online and the mountains were shifting from a high range to a low range as we move along the bridge has this happened to anyone else

Here is another one of my long-ish write ups. I combined all the different note-worthy things I have found around Shangri-La. Hopefully I can help connect the dots explaining the mountain range easter egg. Enjoy! Loading Screen/Mountain relation. My theory is that everyone is looking at it backwards. Everyone is saying “Hey, look at that mountain, it’s out of place!”, and automatically making the assumption that since the hill is out of place, the entirety Shangri-La shouldn’t be there. Let us take a step back; Think for a sec. We have two things that don’t mix. Why are we assuming that the mountain is automatically the one that –should- be there? I think th…

Hello Codz, thought I'd bring this theory over to the Asylum to develop a fully speculated theory. This theory also has to do with the recent speculations of the "Mountains" on Shangri La. I understand that there are various theories involving Shangri La being located on Mars, but I thought this theory should be shown to you as it fits very well, especially when linking it to the Vrill-Ya. If you are unfamiliar with the mountain speculation, here is the picture of the developers tweeting about the mountains in Shangri La, so the mountains have some obvious relevance to the location and the so called "Best kept secret of Zombies". So obviously we have some specula…

The easter egg song pareidolia that is sung by elena siegman. Ok first off we need to know what pareidolia actually means, It means a phenomenon that is perceived as being significant but actually is not and hearing hidden meassages on a record in reverse. In the song pareidolia at the part where "the lonliness is only missed when i am alone" if played in reverse it sounds like "save me moses" what could this mean Also There has been a report that there looked like there was a face on mars but there actually wasnt, This is waht we call a pareidolia.
