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.

Playing zombies I find myself learning a lot while spectating others. Strategies are often preferential, no wrong or right ways but what you are comfortable of executing with the skill sets you have. In the map five playing with three random with absolutely no communications, two run in the war room downing and reviving themselves often and effective. One guy seem to do fine in the basement rarely down or leaving to revive. Round 35 you end up in the PAP room with 0 mustang and sally, 20 mp5k left and 0 ray gun as third weapon. You have 3000 points to use and thief was prior to last round. The randoms all kill on site with minimal train so new spawns are on the …

Yo yo yo, I'm trying to work something out and I'm struggling, so I'm asking all CODZ for help. Max spawn speed is from round 48 and upwards. We know from all the maps that 22/23 seconds is the absolute fastest that anyone can get a hoard, anywhere. My question is more specific. After how long do you estimate that all zombies are spawned into their assigned locations. Ie, if you were to time it, and were doing spawn control past level 50 how long would you need to stay in an area to ensure they are all spawned in? Brain, brains, brains for answers! I'm struggling to find a way to test this ingame somehow. For a start level 50 testing is not norma…

Hi, Back online again finally. Trying to play "Five." It keeps freezing during the load screen. The whole box freezes and we have to restart the Box. Anyone got a clue? A suggestion? And anyone on Xbox send out a friend request. Looking for games. Same name as here.

Hello Codz, we all know of the shriveled zombies in Shangri-La, the ones with the thin, spindly arms and oddly shaped heads and faces? I have a thought. Allow me to explain. I was on the wierd side of Youtube and found this video. She has progeria. An extremelly rare genetic condition that causes people to look extremely old from a young age, and strangely familiar. However, this disease is extremelly rare, and hardly any sufferers live to be 20. Before I learned the above 2 facts, I thought that these zombies may have progeria, but now, it may have simply been inspiration for Treyarch's design. Do you guys think there could be a connec…

so I know there are a lot of people who play PC mod zombies with custom maps, so here's my question: can you change the spawn limit? As in increase the cap to near infinite? This would bog down nearly any computer set up, of course, but I think it would be a really interesting way to play, the way it would "actually" work in a zombie breakout that we seem to all so enjoy. I think it would make a great stand-alone game mode, like speed zombies (since the rounds are both faster and you will not last very long anyway). Some things would have to change, of course; I think maybe combining nuke with fire sale, with having no spawn for 30 seconds after they all…

Cancelling out their ability to pack-a-punch, what do you think is the worst weapon out of the box? I would say the Ballistic Knife with the China Lake being a close second. The Ballistic Knife is good for early rounds when your just taking out zombies individually, but when your starting to make trains, this weapon is useless. The low ammo is a pain, the difficulty of killing the zombies takes forever, and even trying to get your knife back is hard too, because they are probably still stuck in the zombie. Now, on to the China Lake. It's good when taking out a max train, but like those gas crawlers, they disorient you, which is a heavy disadvantage for the weapon. And it …

Getting ready to head over to the big Apple for a Yankee game and NYC auto show, I am as anxious as a little kid in the candy store. Although the thought of being in the vehicle with my wife for six hours is more frightening than The Ring, The Exorcist, and Jaws combined. The Nazi zombies was originally developed as the opening act to the COD series, with the success Treyarch made many changes and additions to please the general public. With each new map we see new ideas and inventions that are attractive to new gamers but still entertaining for the hardcore players. Some of the creations are major, setting the tone for future maps. I bet few would argue that ju…

Okay, so I have a couple questions that have probably been addressed before but not sure so I'm starting a new thread. First of all, I usually play COTD with my wife - so we are a split screen pair, but we always play online. We are also often the host. 1) We got to round 33 the other day and quit because we'd been playing for way too long. Up to around 27 or so we had two other players with us but they died and quit. Because we were the host we got to keep going. Now the leaderboards do not show my level 33 (just shows previous high of 30). Is that because the other people left? WE always just assumed if we were the host we could just keep playing and it…

In a game with random, you have the most impressive credentials. All three based on resume look ok, one has a lot higher kills. In the map of Ascension, two hang by the flopper, one with more kills hang by the MPL. How would you play with them? I love team work so would make an attempt, if they want to play separately then I might go AK74

Zombies could be or not be over. Nobody knows for sure. But if it isn't, and there was an ending, how do you think it would end? I have different ideas. 1. This is all in someone's head. Like maybe Richtofen, Samantha, or Maxis just imagined a zombies infestation. But that seems to extreme. 2. What if Hitler was behind everything? What if after he was killed by the Russians during World War 2, he came back as a zombie and it turns out the real reason he researched the undead, was for him. 3. Maybe the gang go back in time and stop Ricthofen and Maxis from conducting the experiments, kinda like a campaign. These are just some ideas. Please share some o…

I know this would belong to PC, but since I'll get 0 answers / 2 views in PC section, I request this being in General Gameplay for few days. Then it can be moved. Hi I got some new freaky keyboard and mouse. It allows me to program macros. A macro is just a series of inputs that are given to your gaming system. For example, I press my mouse xy special button, and what happens is I go ADS, give 8 pistol shots at max or almost max pace, and then i'll knife. Plus it presses "repair window" all the time of the sequence (I don't press it, the macro does it for me). That's just what I need for Round 2. However, in case I go out of ammo, I press "G12" on my ke…

Hi. Just watched Terminator 2 the other day. What is Arnold Schwarzenegger using, when he stands at the window in the Cyberdine Systems office, to make a mess out of the police? A Minigun and a grenade launcher. In real life, definitely two beasts of guns. I instantly had to compare those two guns in zombies. Deathmachine, a nice killing utility till 30. But the China Lake, useless already at maybe 10. Therefore this question came up: What would you think if the China Lake stays as it is, except for it's damage. What if it would do a damage similar to Scavenger? It's explosion radius is smaller, you must have a very compact horde and aim very carefully, if …

Sitting in my office in gloomy Pennsylvania, I find the stock market today a lot like my game, bad and down a lot. Although I am still kicking myself for not getting more Apple last week. I find the game play of COD to be somewhat boring at this point. FPS has reign the gaming industry for a good part of the 21 century. Most of us had played games similar from Medal of honor, resistance or halo, to the COD series. The same gaming experience has evolved slower than our interest level. The FPS concept varied so little that if you are good in one game, you could pick up a new game and not miss a beat. Madden football for years sparked my interest. In college …

Hey its 5and5 First I would like to say I don't think any console is actually "better" than a gaming PC. But there are some major difference's between the xbox/ps3 version of Black Ops and the PC version. These difference's are very favorable to xbox/ps3, thus the title. Ok to what they are, well basically on xbox when you are holding a pistol you move at 110% speed in all directions, right? So on PC dont you think it would be the same, wrong. On pc if you are holding a pistol you will move at 110% looking forwards but if you turn around and look backwards towards the zombies your speed will drop down to 80% (not 100% sure on this number but that's what it feels like…

We all know about the connection between five and ascension. But I just saw something very interesting. The clocks on five are all stuck on 10:05. And I just saw the clocks on call of the dead were on the same time. Maybe this could be a connection, or it also could just mean that treyarch is too lazy to put on a different time. The only thing I can think of that would disprove this theory would be that FIVE takes place in the '60s and I believe that cotd takes place in present time.

Big news here. The DoA world record was achieved as the result of using a glitch. The question now becomes whether the use of this glitch was justified or not. Before you tell me that no glitch is right watch this video. In this game there is a game ending glitch of the invisible cosmic silverback. It sounds crazy, but when this glitch happens the silverback runs around on a non boss round and can kill you (because you can't see him). Watch the blue guy and see how he gets killed by seemingly nothing. Also watch at 2:15 in the top right. corner where zombies are randomly killed and thrown into the air. The evidence is indisputable, there is a glitched invisible silv…

I am amazed by the effort of certain gamers. They are dedicated and hard working in achieving their goals. I see a bit of those qualities in myself as a person, but not as a gamer. At work I fit the typical hard nosed no non-sense white collar. I constantly hand out pink slips due to lack of effort. As a gamer I am not motivated, disorganized, and sloppy. The only thing I try to do in a game is present myself in a positive manner. Does your game reflect you as a person? Does how you play the game mirror the type of person you are?

Here is a question I have been asked many times, "What is your goal from playing zombies?" More specifically "what are you trying to achieve at this point?" After watch another episode of Bay Watch, I realized I have none. After months of battle with zombies, my skills (or lack of) have somewhat plateaued. I failed to have any kind of success on NML, I find solo games to be as boring as my wife, and the band of brothers I have are either moving on to other games or still camping in PAP room after 5 months. Co-op with new randoms are just miss or miss (read my other post for that), I find myself searching for a purpose. When I first started playing I was shooting …

Here in sunny Pennsylvania flowers are blooming and girls in short shorts are flooding, I have decided it is the perfect tome to discuss the defining moments in our gameplay. There are many moments in my short zombie slaying career but a few stand out. My first PAP, reaching round 30, my first glitch......etc. But one moment will always stay with me. After finally being able to reach round 30 solo (only after reading Superhand's five solo guide and Tom's five looping video) I find myself struggling with co-op. One December encounter with three other randoms changed everything. None of us at the time reached over 16 co-op on five. No one used their mi…

I've recently listened to all the film reels/radios in the map moon, and as far as I can tell, Richtofen was completely normal before teleporting to the moon and touching the pyramid. This confuses me, because I remember vaguely from the ingame bio of Richtofen that he had always been a violent murderous killing machine and an vicious doctor. I mean if you heard Nolan North's portrayal of a pre-teleportation Richtofen, he sounds like any other sane German scientist. In fact, in an argument between him and Maxis, he says he purely wants to better the human condition thus futhering the human race. I also have a question, when he's still working with Maxis's teleportat…
