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.

I imagine this is really old news, but the Kino teleporter connects to Verruckt before the outbreak there. I believe it also connects to the Pentagon, but I don't know for certain the date, as well as Sam's bedroom in Kino at two different times. So there is something messy with this teleporter, its connecting to 5 places, but the time setting is glitched or something? What does this mean in terms of COTD and Moon? Could it be that Moon is a different time than No Man's Land?

Basically, I stumbled upon the following link. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lost_Cosmonauts It is an interesting conspiracy theory and brings up many thoughts about space travel, covered operations, and the cold war. This section caught my eye! It's the lunar landers! Please lend me your thoughts, provide fuel for my fire =)

How do you deal with greedy mystery box spenders? How i deal with them is when i get the Thunder gun (on kino) I'll use my mp40 for as long as i can without revealing to the team that i have the thunder gun with me so they can waste their money on the box trying to get it while i get more points for myself, and i don't buy the box till a fire sell comes up normally (cause for some reason it's alot more easy to get the thunder gun, ray gun, and monkeys to me) On der riese kinda the same thing expect i just do it normally (Not trying to do it but the way i play der riese it happens) because i'm doing my solo/semi co-op/co-op (not sure if it would work with the entire…

I've noticed that if you have a weapon such as the Stakeout, China Lake, L96A1, etc. You can cancel that pump animation. Instructions: When you shoot right after that, Reload, double tap ''Y'' (Triangle), and then shoot again. (It works better if you have Speed Cola) With the China Lake it'll shoot and put a grenade back in right away, it'll repeat that so you'll never really have to reload the whole clip. Hope it helps someone. :)

That's right. Richtofen is actually wearing his spacesuit thingy-mi-jig in iOS Kino. It could possibly be to save space so the developers don't have to add his normal attire, but this means he'll be wearing it when Shangri-La comes out. Tank, Nikolai and Takeo's outfit are the same, although they look more like how they do in Ascension, because of all the blood and stuff. What do you all think of this? Something that should be considered in relation to the story or not?

This is something I've always got into a discussion about with my Steam friends. Some of us tend to play better when we're with our friends, we feel like we can enjoy things more and we play better as a result. Whilst with others of us, we relax too much when playing with friends which makes us play badly. Which one of these describes you? I personally play a lot better with randoms. If I'm playing with friends, as I said I just relax too much sometimes, not only because I'm just having fun but also because I know I'll almost certainly get revived. If I'm playing with randoms, I don't wanna go down because I know there's a chance that I'll die out. There's als…

I would like to know what is your favorite strategy for Nacht Der Untoten (solo and in waw). I gather my points to over 2000 and buy the M1A1 Carbine. And when its starts to get hard in the starting room, I head up. Buy the stairs and then right away another stairs to the help room. You should have money to buy box 2-3 times. Then I go next to the Thompson, and buy that unless I already got Ray gun and Machine gun from the box But you can hold the zombies back by using only the Thompson till rounds 15-18, so you don't have that hurry to get that ray gun. Being right next to the tommy gun you can repair the window right behind you and shoot target comin…

Author’s Note: Okay, I have to thank Superhands and Ehjookayted for giving me some tips with this thread. Seriously, you guys helped me out SO MUCH. And I **guess** I have to thank the CoD Wiki. I guess. Whatever. Awkward. Anyways, enjoy! ______________ Everything You Need to Know About Points There are these things called points. It’s in Zombies, and it’s probably the single most important aspect of Zombies. Without points, you’re a dead man walking. That’s the best way I can put it. Without points, you’re hopeless, trapped in the spawn room forever with nothing but a pistol, a couple nades, and a knife. No doors, no Mystery box, no perks (except…

I have a challenge too The first time I saw this challenge, was from Yoteslaya. It's pretty similar to MP. You have to use the box once, and you have use up all the ammo from that weapon. Rules: - No PAPing, but you can pick up max ammo. - If you run out of ammo, you have to pick another weapon, no traps. - You can buy perks and doors and you can turn the power on. - If you get monkey bombs, gersch devices, dolls or what ever, you are not allowed to pick those up. - You can use grenades and semtex. Good luck :)

Of course we can all tell that these two act exactly the same. But are they. Strangely they are. When you look closely into the hole of the Gersch device you can see numbers coming out if it but only a little unlike the teleporters of FIVE. If anybody has any info on this just reply or somethin like that.

A trivia information thread, dunno if we already have one of these, eh. Did you know that the Ray Gun and Mustang & Sally do less damage if you shoot them in the legs, stomach or arms? Did you also know that a headshot from a Calamity (PaP CZ75) can do as much damage as a headshot from a Predator (PaP Commando)?

Hey guys. I've been working on a Zombie guide for about a year now. I'm nearing completion, but there is a couple sections I'm still working on. You may have seen my storyline thread; that is one. But another is the Questions and Answers section. I'm trying to make a section talk about all the miscellaneous questions people may have that they couldn't find the answers to. So I made this thread and I was hoping that anyone reading this could help me out by doing one thing: asking questions. Please, ask me ANY Zombie-related questions. I will use everything I can to answer the as correctly as possible, and I do believe myself qualified to answer them. Hopefully, i…

I've been working on some Nacht videos in the last couple of days and it got me thinking about the cutback. It seems that if people don't know it they don't really understand it and it's sometimes hard to describe in words, especially when you hear the term drag out thrown in. Nacht can only be played really with the cutback. What's good about Nacht is the environment forces you to take the right path. Just a quick video with some awesome music just for the CODZ guys. You will see some cutbacks here, including some drag outs kbSfsRR4pls

Hi Just did some testing. The Ray has a 5 neck multiplier and a 4 headshot multiplier. So I thought, why everybody shoots at the ground. Cause with neck shots, you would do 5000 damage, which is very solid, plus the blast thing. When you shoot onto the ground, you loose those 5k direct impact damage each shot, when you shoot at the legs or so, you loose still 4k each bullet. I did some test right now. Gather a group, and once I shot only in the neck, the other time on the ground, very low fire rate, so to use as few ammo as possible. Was round 17-18-19, so the zombies have more than 1k health, but less then 4k. Surprising Result: Used about 10-15% less amm…

Tom and myself had a discussion about this on a game of COTD this week; it was actually Tom suggested it'd make a good discussion topic but I see it hasn't been created yet so I figured I'd make it to get some discussion going. When people get revived, often the first thing they do is rush for Juggernog. On the newer maps with PhD Flopper, on many occasions these people will have a Mustang & Sally in hand as a path clearer. But of course, if they've gone down they will no longer have PhD Flopper so they can't clear a path on the way to Juggs if need be. If they bought PhD first, it's not out of the question to run around without Juggernog until it's safe to go and…

It has been hard. Local internet connection the last few months has not been strong enough to try and play online. This will be fixed soon, but it has really changed how we play Zombies. Largely for the better. I'll cover some of things my son and I have seen playing without the tether to XBox Live and what it's like run those trains in the cold, outside world. There are some complaints, hopefully amusing stories and a little of the weird. Remember, without XBox Live is to live without any updates and deals only with the core game. And how's that working out you ask? No Mule Kick. Except for the original on Moon. Cannot say it affects much gameplay. It does not get …

Ah randoms. Don't you just love em'? Everyone's been in a game with some truly awful players, so tell some stories of games you've played and post some scoreboards! Sorry for the massive images by the way. I'll start with these two: Probably the least competent zombie killers I've come across. The revives may not be that high but look at their kills! Literally just played this game five minutes ago. Their kills were bad but look at their downs and my revives! 50 downs? I mean really?

I have a challenge for you guys, I want to see how long you can survive without turning the power on. Rules You are not allowed to turn the power on, turning it on is a automatic DQ You can do this on any map but NDU and SNN (Cause they have no power, it would be cheating) and I don't recommend you do it on Der Reise, cause you'll be trapped in one area of the map possibly. but you can. You are allowed to get Quick Revive. You are allowed to hit the box and buy doors. Good luck people.

This is a fun challenge on any map, preferably Five. The rules are simple. No kills allowed. The objective is to get the highest number of revives. Shooting the zombies is allowed, just make sure you don't kill them. Perks Allowed: . Juggernaut . Quick Revive Remember your score, or take a picture when you either all die or you get a kill. I have yet to try this as I can't seem to find anyone on Five at the moment who doesn't end the game or leave as soon as they die. When more scores are posted I will make a leaderboard, have fun!

Just did a game on Moon with the nr. 1 ranked on pc and with someone else. We aborted at 41 cause it was getting boring at some point. I thought, basically me and the best scored guy could easily break his record - I would be as capable as him to go to 72. Anyway, we aborted. So this question came up in my mind again: What is it actually, that leads to a record? For the discussion: :: Does it need patience or skill to reach insanely high rounds? :: Can someone, that owns round 50, also own round 200? :: Does someone, that could reach 100 by running skills but aborts at 50, have the same skill as the one that doesn't abort the game until 100 and succ…
