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.

Everybody, just like on Ascension, was very caught up in the big easter, enough to ignore all the little hidden things around the map. There's so much discussion of the main easter egg and what strategies to do, that there is little looking for the smaller things. There are some little things that have been found. 1. The writing on the gongs 2. The little designs on the side of the round stone doors 3. the page behind Ascension on the loading screen. And then there's also some big questions that are completely unanswered, Why is there a huge underground mine for 115, and who/what was it being mined for? And what's with the Russian landers, and t…

which do you think is better? the bowie knife or the sickle? in my opinion, i think the bowie knife is better because, it does more damage to the zombies. also because when you do a knife lunge, you dont kind of throw your knife like the sickle.

Hi everyone, As you might know, the german word "Schwarze Sonne" (black sun) was written on a chalkboard on Der Riese. >> "Schwarze Sonne" on Wikipedia. Please read it my english isnt good enough to explain it... This is the symbol of "Schwarze Sonne": And I think you can see it in the Shangri-La loading-screen with a bit fantasy... I think this could be a link to Der Riese/Dr. Maxis/Group 935. I hope you unterstand what I try to show you . Sry if someone posted already.

So I've been talking with Mix, and I've only recently discovered that there are Illuminati symbols on the pressure plates you have to match up in the Shangri-La/Eclipse EE. I know there was a thread earlier that discussed it, but I wanted to refocus on it again. That being said, I decoded what letters appeared using this Illuminati chart. LKSECRSIXQ12/3 H is actually K. I read it wrong, so ignore the H on the picture. It's possible X could actually be G, but I don't think it is because G's symbol is slanted, and it isn't slanted on the plate. I don't know if it's 2 or 3 either. Is that small dot under the symbol of 2 meant to be there? I…

From the newest trailer, the beginning shows the flow of water... I wonder if that will play an important part in the game. I love puzzles and if they have the water system set up where you need to divert the water or something, that would be cool. What do you all think?

Can't find any good images of the old monkeys to know if this is a new feature or not, anyone mind helping? I think this may be a sign that this map may be like our good ol fashioned zombie maps! Good trailer, followed with a good map with excellent gameplay and lots of secrets! I feel like 935 has been a little absent since DR.

As seen in the new zombie addition, the annoying Nova Gas zombies have been replaced by the Shrieking zombies and Napalm zombies. Some people find this annoying, since it's double the Nova Gas zombies but I barley see any Shrieking zombies and Napalms. I just wanted to ask everybody on the CoDz forum what they thought of this replacement? You guys can also post their pros and cons of this replacement. See yah guys!

I've been doing the Shangri-La egg lately, and I noticed this thing in the sky I never noticed before. It's odd shaped, not a cloud, and it's the only thing like it in the sky. I know not many people think much of the Mars/Shangri-La connection, but I honestly don't know what this is, and believe it could be something related. I took four pictures (above) and merged them, the last one is as the eclipse ends, hence the sky brighter and the screen contorted. Anyway, I don't think I've ever seen discussion about this before. It's only their during the eclipse in the past, not the present. Here's a straight picture with no cuts. Honestly, it reminds me of the flo…

Ok so we all know that the speculated name for the next map is "Paradise", we all know about the Call of the dead loading screen and the fern. But anyways, heres my 'gathered' info: -There is a Aztec/ or Mayan callender next to the vault with the original characters, insinuating that the map is near Mexico or South America. -There are noises like elephants having buttsex (lol jk) in the background, so now it's saying the map is in Asia? WTF? -There is evidence on Zombies on the MP map jungle: Mystery boxes, Aztec ruins, etc. -The Campaign level 'Crash Site'. The guy in the chopper says "welcome to Paradise" hhmmm.

I've watched the video, seen screenshots, and what I believe happens to the power ups when a monkey goes near em is that it destroys them. Because at first a power up in the monkey was a red nuke, but as it got closer to the hammer it changed to a hammer, maybe it destroys whatever power ups are in it's way. Rather then perks? Thoughts comments post away!

I have noticed a pattern that I have wanted to post a for a while, and I decided to do it now, for no particular reason. I do not know if anyone has already posted this, but I didn't see any so please don't flame me if someone already has. The new shrink ray weapon is our tenth... does this mean two more wonder weapons? Every time we get new Wonder Weapons, there are usually more that come soon after forming a trio, like so: A "primary" weapon - These are much sought after and can destroy A LOT of zombies with a single pull of the trigger. A "secondary" weapon - Less powerful than a "primary", but better than most normal weapons. Usually a pistol. A specia…

Just like in COTD where the environment changed with the fog rolling in. It looks like a similar effect was added to Shangri-La. In the newest trailer you can see that some parts it is dark out (night) and some parts it's light out (day) The eclipse probably has something to do with it, and perhaps is why there are white (icey) zombies and fire (napalm) zombies. I think they change based on the eclipse. If you look closely they appear to have the same, if not very similar character skins. Just a thought I had.

MAYBE TREYARCH IS MAKING US NEED TO GO PEE. Because I really have to go pee right now. carbonfibahs post got me thinking, and I decided to share what I taught myself over the years, and decided to be useful to the site. On to my theory, since it IS an ancient place there's not gonna be an ELECTRICAL POWER SWITCH, would there be? Unless it's powered by BATTERIES. Batteries, in the ancient times? "Electric batteries, 2000 years ago!!! Surprised? No need to be, really,” said by the one Willard F. M. Gray, who is an engineer at GE (General Electric). Apparently, 4000 YEARS AGO in Ancient Baghdad, Persia (Iraq), there were very talented metal workers. They…
