General Zombies Discussion
Come here to talk about aspects of Zombies that just don't seem to fit into other sections.
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.

Well, it's about time for another idea thread, and I think i'll host it. I expect them to BLOW US AWAY with Zombies. They've had a decent amount of time to perfect the game mode, and I believe that his is what the fans will be waiting for. What do you guys expect?

When reading through Valor1204's idea for customization in Zombie private matches (viewtopic.php?f=100&t=21638), I got to thinking: What if we were able to access the most popular of these modes in an improved Community playlist, similar to the one we saw in MW3. If Treyarch do indeed decide to do team-based gamemodes for zombies, which is likely judging by Mark Lamia's recent hints, it would not be naive to suspect we would have private matches. When Infinity Ward saw the popularity of the "Infected" game-type they made a community playlist so that people could enjoy it as a true, XP-based game-mode like any other. I believe if we are to see another commun…

I recently saw a statement by Mark Lamia where he was commenting about zombies, and during it, he kind of joked around asking what types of team game modes we would like to see. I think that he was honestly asking us what kind of game modes we would like to see for zombies. We've already seen something like this from IW, with the community playlist. The fans asked for specific gamemodes and IW made it available for online play, they even created new ones, such as Drop Zone and All or Nothing. I don't think it would be too farfetched for Treyarch to do the same thing. Here's the link to the interview: http://www.officialplaystationmagazine. ... er-worlds/ …

So we all know that zombies is on the multiplayer engine, we're going to get the capability to support double the character models, and all that. I've been reading a lot of what you guys have been saying and think that if they do implement a stat tracking system or a way to gain experience/level ups from zombies they could have a way to make it carry over into multiplayer. For instance, one way this could work is if you have 1xp awarded for every zombie you kill multiplied by the current round number and you get awarded 5xp for every round you complete (revives don't give xp because of the potential for milking via suicide/revive). There could also be various amounts…

Just going through Twitter, and stumbled across Brian Tuey, the sound designer at Treyarch. You'll see him in the Moon Trailer. Somebody asked him when there would be news on Zombies. He replied; Now, what "soon" means, I don't know. Whether that's in thew next few months, or later on? I don't know. But it makes it certain that they're not trying to hide anything with Zombies. Their attitude with it is very much, "It's in the game. Expect news a bit later" CCM

Hello gentlemen, I couldn't really think of a great name for this thread, however I would like to post the very possibility that has been revealed, thanks to that pre-order poster. The numbers 1221 can be seen, these numbers point to the twenty first of December the year 2012, this is when a catastrophic event is supposed to occur with the galactic allignment of the stars, however....Treyarch seems to be taking a different rout with this, away from the celestial events, what if....and I know this sounds like a cheese ball idea, it was really the date in which (IN call of duty lol..) a zombie apocalypse happens, and that is the very date the rockets had impacted on ea…

By now I'm sure many of you have heard the rumors of a new game mode: Escort. The supposed premise of this mode is: one team must defend the escort to 3 different flags to win (don't know if it's meant to be round-based or not). If the escort dies, other team wins. Judging by the fact that Mark Lamia has already hinted at some team-based zombie game-modes in addition to the new zombie modes presented in Black Ops II, I think it would be awesome if they made a zombie variant of Escort. Imagine how fun it would be, an 8-man team escorting a Player-VIP to three drop points whilst simultaneously holding off hordes of the undead and scoring a crap-ton of points along…

There are some possibilites... german scientists who worked under Richtofen and wanted to get back at him. It doesn't really matter who the new characters would be... but Treyarch would need to devise a back story to all of them, and those stories would have to make sense and coincide with the story we have now. We'll see Treyarch... *EDIT: The unnamed marines from Nacht and Verruckt could be plausible additions... but they have no means of time traveling and they aren't the subjects of extreme Nazi testing which would result in the super qualities of the present characters. There are just SO many things possible... Any ideas?

Mark Lamia stated that Zombies will be running off of the multiplayer engine. In multiplayer, we've always had customizable private matches. Possibly, in Black Ops II, we'll be able to set up our own Zombies mode/gametype. We can possibly set a time limit, different scoring, possible objectives, starting weapons, classes, available weapons/perks, etc. All of those things depend on what will be in the game. I think it would be neat, especially for challenges, to have private matches set up like this. It's plausible because it is running off of the multiplayer engine. Sorry if this has already been touched upon. Thoughts?

When you collect bad power ups like carpenter you should be able to do something with them. There would be a machine that can absorb power ups, to pick up a power up you press Y or T. You put it in the machine. C=Carpenter M=Max Ammo N=Nuke P=Perk (No death machine or other weapons) C+C+C=Nuke N+N+N=Max Ammo M+M+M= Free Perk P+P+P=? ?+?+?=? You get the point.

This sword is found on the women on the poster. Could this be hinting at melee weapons in zombies? I'm not saying I want this. Also, it's probably not going to be confirmed until we see gameplay

Beautiful day here in PA. Was up early with the misses, went out for a nice drive in my Z4, and even had breakfast without her babbling complaints. Last night was a different story though, trying to complete Way2g00's round 30 challenge. Had one buddy with me hoping for two solid randoms. Could not get any solid games on Five, but easily found "good" randoms in Kino and Ascension. Both cases were similar, the two of us doing our normal set up for round 30 run, allowing randoms to focus on hitting the box for Thunder Gun. Both cases the randoms got Thunder Gun and ran away with kills while we set up long run with sufficient points. Both cases random go down …

So as some of you know http://www.callofduty.com/classified Has still 5 classified boards that hasn't been used. As for at least my surprise 3ARC came out and instantly revealed zombie mode during the reveal. With Black Ops they were super secret about it. This gives me a hunch that they will have full out zombie add campaign at some point just like they will have with MP. So we need to keep eye on that website if zombies one day appear there :lol:

Hey guys my name is Marv, new user and long time lurker bringing you my ideas for two new modes and a new perk machine. Since it's rumoured (or confirmed?) that you'll be able to play with up to 8 players in zombies, I thought of two new modes that could work really really well. Apocalypse This mode is similar to COD4's Zombie Mod and MW3's Survival mode. You level up during matches and you can buy weapons,explosives,equipment,perks(pro perks directly when you buy them) and killstreaks in the spawn. Along with the dogs and Nova Gas zombies, I thought it would be cool to see some Juggernauts(basically Left4Dead Tanks) and Kamikaze Zombies, that will blow up in…

I personally believe that there should be a leveling up system in the next black ops game but i want it to differ with each game type. With endless mode i think it would be awesome if you could level up, but being a level 50 gives you no advantages over someone who is a level 1, but leveling up and completing challenges unlocked titles and/or emblems. If there is a campaign for zombies i hope for it to play similar to normal black ops campaign, so obviously no leveling up If there is some type of zombie multiplayer (something like the normal multiplayer in codbo) then i would hope for some kind of level up system that you do get and advantage if your leve…

I have had some ideas for zombie maps: 1. an abandoned school. you could start off in a sports hall or the playground. and when you walk through the corridors there could be a quiet eerie sound of children's laughter. also a perfect place to find Samantha! The zombies could be teachers, or even students! 2. a shopping mall. special melee weapons, lifts, escalators and undead shoppers! fat zombies, that explode into gas like crawlers! 3. basically, the map is a long sideways trench. your weapons start with light machine guns. there are mounted guns with unlimited ammo. no barriers. zombies only come from one side of the trench. hold them off as long as you c…

I am so sick of people saying there will be no 4 player co op. LISTEN they confirmed in an interview there will be a seperate mode called classic zombies it has the original characters 4 players and everything. Now the 8 player co op mode is not confirmed yet but this is most likely what would happen. For 8 player co op mode there might be separate new characters so that will be separate. Now you can imagine for the 8 player zombies mode there will be special designed maps for the specific modes. Now I cant find the interview where they say this about the 4 player mode anymore so you guys can choose to believe or just be stupid and ignorant. Its up to you. Update 1 r…

*Edit: Sorry, I just realised this has been posted under the wrong section of the forum. I absolutely love playing zombies and really want to get to round 50 on every map, but whenever I attempt to get to a high round I find the repetitiveness gets too much for me and I become bored after 30 rounds. Any tips to overcome this?

As we all know, the zombies game mode is moving to the multiplayer engine, allowing for more zombies and more players. I have an idea for a map that would allow the new characters their introduction, without leaving out the original crew. My ideas are as follows: Limbo:Sometime between Moon and 2025, our new crew stumbles across an old teleporter marked "Failed". One of the characters thinks they fixed it and the crew sets off in search of the truth. What they find will be beyond their Darkest nightmares. Map Size:Medium/Small Overall Appearance: This map will appear to be nowhere with nothing around except sand bags surrounding the map. No walls that you can see. P…

Basically it is the idea behind the multiplayer contracts in Black Ops, but the descriptions obviously altered. Say kill 100 zombies in 10 minutes, kill 500 zombies with the Ray Gun, Revive a certain amount of people on a certain map, etc. I'm unsure of the reward however, but I'm sure Treyarch will figure it out. Now that it's running on the Multiplayer engine, it's actually possible for them to do this. :)

It would seem that treyarch is finally adding some personality to this sausage fest :roll: No but really, its about time treyarch, atleast we know they are doing something with the singleplayer, its seen as they are working with motion capture on MALE and FEMALE bodies in order to have the smoothest movements for each character type... so this brings us to zombies, and that poster....are we finally getting a female character?? I think that would be a GREAT break in the monotony right now, no seriously...it would be fun to play as a badass zombie slaying chick, and trust me...sarah michelle geller wasn't that badass, you need less of her girly quotes and more …
