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 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

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?

Hey all, I'm sorry if I'm using the forums incorrectly, I am new here. I've done every single Treyarch easter egg with the exception of Shangri-La on black ops 1. I'm trying to get a team together to complete it, and if anyone is interested in doing so please add me on Xbox, my gamertag is the same as my name on here.

I dont know if any of you are familiar with the Uncharted series, but at the end of Uncharted 2, they go to a place called Shangri-la, also known as Shambala. It is basiaclly a paridise hidden in the Himalayas, and if Zombies are going there, it'll be awesome. Look it up, it's just a giant ancients city with ruines, lush plants and trees, and huge mountains going up the side of the valley.

Sorry if this has been posted already but I found a quick little piece of information that might help as to why Shnagri-La is indeed paradise... "Shangri-La is a fictional place described in the 1933 novel Lost Horizon by British author James Hilton. In the book, "Shangri-La" is a mystical, harmonious valley, gently guided from a lamasery, enclosed in the western end of the Kunlun Mountains. Shangri-La has become synonymous with any earthly paradise but particularly a mythical Himalayan utopia — a permanently happy land, isolated from the outside world. In the novel Lost Horizon, the people who live at Shangri-La are almost immortal, living years beyond the normal li…

I was watching the trailer, and saw the pack-a-punch machine in the middle of the tower. I can't make a screen shot of the video, but here a link to the part of a video with gameplay and the picture. I take no credit for this video. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=biRQC5Gc ... ded#t=179s

If anyone knows how, can they have a look in the game files and try to find the name for the Shangri La music? we found it before for ascension in the file "mus_gameover_abracadavre", so it could be the same for this one!

Anyone been to a Jungle Cruise attraction in Disneyland, or a Indiana Jones movie? You probably been to one of those, or both. The point here is that you've seen the infamous shrunken heads. You know, those little deformed human heads used as trophies or luck charms. Here is a little story I made up which is kind of interesting but could explain the 31-79 JGb215's origin. The tribes around the Amazon Rainforest were in the search for shelter, food, and resources mainly because of the epidemic seasons. They traveled to find more spiritual power to hardness their religious life when they found the Spaniards searching for human life. Upon contacting th…

Sorry no idea how to embed it. I noticed that at :53 in the vid when you see deadshot there is a circular platform in the foor with a metal path down the middle and hazard colors on it. It sort of looks like a railroad redirector. It looks like it could be turned to redirect water or open doors to diffrent parts of the map. There is only one pathway leading into the room that we can see so the path and platform might match up to get better water flow or somthing. Definately looks like it moves in some way, maybe a spinning trap? What do you think it does?

With Shangri La almost out i started thinking about the monkey bombs again. Has anybody ever wondered why the zombies are attracted to it? I always thought it was the sound but that wouldn't make sense as with all of the other sounds. But does it have a connection with Sam? Possibly since Samantha is somewhat connected to the monkey bomb. Also Sam controls the zombies do they zombies find the monkey bomb somewhat apart of Sam or as a calling? Now this is going to sound stupid but what if when the monkey bomb talks what if it is Sams voice? Feel Free To Post Your Ideas

So in one of the screenshots you see the shrieker zombie leaning back with a light coming from his chest I think that the focusing stone is on a shrieker and they wear it like a necklace but to get it from him you have to do whatever the objective/easter egg tells you to do...

To get this you have to kill the monkey after it steals your power up, rather simple as they are easy to kill.

This achievement is rather easy too, to get it kill the napalm zombie on solo, but be far away, because as it gets close to you, your screen glows orange, telling you are to close to it, so make sure you are far away when you kill it, same thing with blinded by the fright, but this time reverse, do it on solo, let it blind you and kill it, make sure younhave jugg tho. K thanks!

My theory on the moving statue is that when you tun the power in, and look at the statue, you stand on a panel that has and 8sided star, and a death skull, these panels are throughout the map, so my theory is that you have to step on these panels in the right order, and it will turn the statues, maybe something to do with focusing stone **when you step on a panel, that isn't right it stops all moving panels and you have to wait till next Round**

While running through the first playthrough we noticed a few things... just for those who haven't posted it before: there are gongs throughout the level, which if hit in the right order will do something. We only got 3 before we got stuck XP There are 4 spinning puzzles with glyphs. I will post pictures tommorow. Richtofen has the vril generator. Hmmm.... There is a brick that says "Do not Hold X" which causes a waterfall that seems pointless except to slow a few zombies down. To access the PaP you have to press the two pressure plates to cause the stairs to lower. watch to skulls on either side of the stairs to know your time limit. when it hits the…

The easter egg will be 4 player as there are 4 buttons in spawn which I think will be the start. Monkeys pick up and change pick ups. If you take a pick up before a monkey gets it then a monkey will hit you once and take some points. The new wonderweapon does pretty much the same PaP'd as when normal but the effects are longer. The Napalm zombie is easy enough to kill but the blast radius is huge. Shriekers are simple to kill and hardly pose a threat. Perk machines move each game. Ray gun is back. The trap box under the waterfall which is seen in the video was not there when I looked. To open PaP you have to stand on pressure p…

my guess is that the 4(?) dials, each with four different symbols that can be turned have something directly to do with the EE. also i noticed that in the long curving tunnel on Jugg side of the map there is a pipe running vertically next to the skull pressure switch with a turnable valve on it ala COTD's ship levers the monkey statue deff has something to do with EE also, so far i have only seen the head spinning but there are 3 segments to it, and i believe the "main" statue is the one enshrined right between the two power switches i suck at finding how everything should be done exactly so ill leave that to you guys lol also someone should look into…
