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.

O7YAHQQQkcQ Enjoy. Pareidolia Link. Pareidolia: is a psychological phenomenon involving a vague and random stimulus (often an image or sound) being perceived as significant. Common examples include seeing images of animals or faces in clouds, the man in the moon or the Moon rabbit, and hearing hidden messages on records played in reverse. The word comes from the Greek para- – "beside", "with", or "alongside"—meaning, in this context, something faulty or wrong (as in paraphasia, disordered speech) and eidōlon – "image"; the diminutive of eidos – "image", "form", "shape". Pareidolia is a type of apophenia. Regards Alpha.

Hey guys, Tac here and I've been reworking this thread since I released it a couple years ago. Originally, I presented evidence for why Shangri-La was on Mars, but since then I've realized that they're merely connected and while Shangri-La may have once been on Mars, it likely isn't while we play. Because of this, I want everyone to realize that the OP has changed and so when reading the comments, realize that at the time of creation, there was less evidence than when you're currently reading this Shangri-La has always been a map that is shrouded in mystery and we have all been intrigued by it at one point or another. As some of us may have seen, Treyar…

Apparently I was right and wrong the two Trailers were uploaded but only one was released a day after it should have been released. Regardless expect the Zombie Trailer for Saturday. In the meantime Inside Xbox posted a video that talks about Duke Nukem and shows some Black Ops Multiplayer Clips.

So! In the Call of the Dead Easter Egg, we hear them say they went to far into the future, so that would mean they would go back in time correct? If they are just coming from Ascension, then it would be likely to assume it is between Ascension and CoTD. According to the trailer, they have their clean uniforms, Richtofen no longer has his cut on his cheek from Ascension, and Takeo has a mustache he didn't have in Ascension. The uniforms are from Kino der Toten, implying it is between Kino and Ascension. If Shangri-La IS between Kino and Ascension, that would mean CoTD is also since they came to Shangri-La from CoTD. Given the characters we play as (Tejo, etc.) i…

Analysis: This is probably the starting area, as you can see the quick revive machine and the olympia, which signals the spawn area. Water slide leads to underground area? New trap flings zombies into the air. New wonder weapon, appears to make crawlers? Flaming zombie explodes Weird boss looking zombie? POST YOUR IMAGES GUYS!

It IS BETTER THAN THE WUNDERWAFFE DG-2 :shock: :twisted: , and any other wunder weapon. first, it has the most ammo of them non pap and pap. second, it WILL kill a max spawn of 24 zombies which IS the max spawn with one shot if you know how to use it correctly. third, it can spawn pickups(only has this over the thundergun). fourth, is actually pretty good at clearing a path. now, for the wunderwaffe dg-2 its better because the waffe on blops only kills 10-12 pap and non pap. that only is a very good reason why its better. and it has the ammo problem over the wunderwaffe. thundergun, its better because it has more ammo and spawns pickups to. the thundergun might be be…

Small Consolation- In Shangri-La, use the 31-79 JGb215 on each type of zombie. Monkey see, Monkey don't - In Shangri-La get something from the monkeys. Zomb Disposal - In Shangri-La, dispose of a Napalm zombie without it harming any players. Blinded by the fright - In Shangri-La kill a Shrieker zombie while blinded by it. Time Travel will tell - In Shangri-La, acquire the focusing stone. If you don't believe me and want to see yourself, go onto your Xbox and compare games with someone! Discuss guys! I'm guessing "Time travel will tell" is the Easter Egg Achievement. Image: (Thanks to infamousKONVICT) Video proof: OGWGJPCXKFk

I noticed this the first time I saw the Annihilation video. Go to 2:47 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rxX1v3bjXak You see this streak of light go across the sky. My thoughts are that the light is the crew. When you send them off in COTD, they go through the teleporter and travel to Shangri La.(NO BRAINIER) I could see this as a beginning cut-scene, showing them flying in and explaining why they are there. Please let me know what your guys theories are. :D

as ive done a far few timelines for the various maps, and even done a huge complete timeline, figured id do one for this aswell, although it precedes directly after COTD, i believe its also coming to the end of Zombies as we know it (well the current story arc anyway(, i will shed some light to things of what im starting to see happening and what i believe to be true Time Set Precedes directly after Call of the dead but set before 21st of December 2012 (theres a reason why im this specific) now i know there seems to be 2 different light settings on this map which could indicate that night time could be when PaP appears but i also believe its there for…

I dunno about anybody else, but I'm excited traps are making a comeback. Not only the new ones, but old electric ones possibly? A screenshot with what looks like a power box circled. BTW, Bamboo trap looks to be a possible new favorite The only thing I hope they change (but am sure they won't) is getting at the very least the kill count for zombies killed with traps. That's the main reason I don't usually use them when I play. No points, no kill credit. Next, could we see our first female Zombies in this map? New evil looking monkey as well as the Eclipse that could be like the new dogs, every 5 rounds or so? PA…

I circled what looks to be Double Tap/Juggernog, many people say it looks like it. The circle on top of the machine is orange or red (it's hard to tell) and has white in the middle just like Double Tap/Juggs. It could possibly be some other perk, give me your thoughts. I also drew an arrow pointing to a mystery box light because I felt like it. 8-) Edit: I made the picture larger, in the original one you could barely see the perk machine. I also changed the title because I found Double Tap somewhere else on the map.

okay so we all no that Area 51 is the next map, it will be called Quarantine and in Shangri la dempsey mentions "you guys never give the community what they want" what have we been asking for for SO LONG! i mean we all wanted the ppsh in WAW and they gave it to us, and the AK47 might be the samee and/or the M60, these are just thoughts that are highly likely! *EDIT* i know the next map because the leak a couple weeks ago, there will be Cargo Mansion metro and one more but i forgot* and QUARANTINE(:

(Notice how far away it is from the Building) Image 2: http://img269.imageshack.us/img269/594/image23ko.png In "Image 2" you see what may or may not be juggernog.

If you check out the picture for dead ops in the lobby it shows our crashed soviet rocket from Ascension. Mr cosmic is rocking a mean little get up consisting of a spacesuit. When you die on dead ops you go to the platforms, which are stationed in front of a old looking structure resembling a lot of the structures seen in the trailer for MP3. Do you think we finally get to meet him?

So after a heated debate with another member about whether Jug moves or not, I looked constantly at the trailer to try to disprove.... after extreme examination.... I'll admit I was wrong.... the picture he posted behind the spikes has got to be a new perk... It's not jug.... There's 2 ways to prove this. You see the 5? Jug doesn't have a 5, it has a 10. Also, it looks to me like some sort of skull on the top instead of the health sign like Jug. I also thought it was peculiar that there is sort of an outline of the machine on the ground. That's what originally got me looking... Edit: Here's a picture of Juggernog to compare.... NOWHERE does it have a…

Rumors are spreading that there will be a fourth map pack coming to Black Ops, named Retaliation. The rumored maps in the Pack are supposedly called: -Mansion, which takes place in Castro's secret compound in Cuba -Cargo, which takes place in a frozen shipping place in Greenland -Metro, which takes place in a city in Vietnam -Harbor, which takes place in an abandoned Shipyard in America. The zombie map will be called Quarantine, set in Area 51, which is a military base in Nevada which is classified as non-exsistent. There is also another hint that there there will be a fourth map pack: There's another page in the Zombie comic book on the Shangri-La loading scr…

It looks like my theory of the CotD encounter happening BEFORE Ascension. EDIT: boss rounds look like monkeys AND there is gonna be a solar eclipse happening which would make this the 2nd daytime map.
