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 decided to do some thinking about the actual physiology of zombies, and made an interesting discovery regarding their "Function." Before we decide what EXACTLY a zombie is, we must first look at the big picture. A zombie is a dead humans brought back to "life," or at least an active state of being. However they are surely not "living" dead, at least not in that crude sense. Let's move on to some specific senses, shall we? so, what do we have here? An organism capable of surviving nearly any conditions, which requires no food, water, nor air to survive. they take in no energy, and yet carry out functions such …

While smashing thousands of zombies on Die Rise yesterday, my fellow zombie slayers and I were aimed down our respective scopes at the endless waves of the undead barrelling our way. A few times we noticed (how can you not) the green mist or sparks accompanied by that subtle noise indicating that you're shooting them in the face. "That was beautiful!" I exclaimed, and someone agreed. So, I suggested that Treyarch add some stuff that is A)More visually stunning B)Takes away from the monotony of running trains/aiming and shooting and C)Lets the players know if they are performing well or not. Possibly have a narrator/voice that informs you that you'r…

My pick would be Mob of the Dead. Everything about that map's atmosphere is perfect imo. The visuals are incredibly haunting and scary but not in a cheesy way, the mobster voice acting and the contextual music are spot on, the zombies look hellish with their red eyes and barbwire all over their bodies, and, perhaps most importantly, the dark backstory of the map gives it a depth that no other map has been able to match.

Now I wanna have a serious discussion about whether or not the next treyarch game will be having our beloved zombies mode. I know that we have been divided storywise because of the controversial ending and some have decided this must be the end and some have decided it can't be. This is a question for treyarch I think we all want (need) the answer to. Will there be a zombies mode in the next treyarch game? And I feel compelled to ask because I'm seriously worried that there might not be (change scares me man) even though I'm one of the faction who believes the ending in this final dlc simply opens up a whole new story they could tell...what if there isn't? What if t…

I think a lot about how to make topics that have never been discussed, and that is HARD, but I think I've thought of one so I know the title isn't very forthcoming so I'll begin to explain. This is a place to discuss, and include your ideas on why certain things are the way they are, in game, and in the story of zombies. Also, it's a place to debate on whether or not some things can be rationalized past the point of "just so the game is playable". Still confused? I'll give an example. It's no secret that Samantha wanted Richtofen and more or less, the rest of the group to die during their efforts to reach the Moon base. So why did she produce power to each area t…

[uPDATE] This is an old post, my theories have changed since I made this. I don't actually think there is another entity called 'The Blackness', however, keep the idea of "Removing Samantha" in mind. In the comments section of this post I talk about two alternate Samantha's, two with completely separate goals. We have the Origins Samantha, and the German Samantha. For all we know, the Origins Samantha could be this so-called 'Blackness' that I was talking about. If you'd actually want to get into the discussion, refer to the reply section! It's fun talking about this! Men, welcome once again. I will be talking about 'the price of removing Samantha's barrier' and 'th…

Hello there, good citizens of this wonderful land of Zombies! I am here today to bring you a project of immense proportions! In this thread, we will try and tackle all the unsolved mysteries of Zombies. These can range from little miniature secrets which may hold HUGE relevance in the story (as evidenced by Manhattan Down & the Green Run project & China's Great Leap Forward) to huge unsolved mysteries, such as where are the O4 now (this one will not be attempted though, because unless new information comes to light, we have little to no evidence to deduce a conclusion)? With the advent of Sledgehammer Games' involvement in the Call of Duty development cycle, w…

So, something that has been bothering me since the Origins cinematic is Maxis' name. In BO1 we learned it was Ludwig; the Data Servants said so. But in BO2, the first time we see his name in a "non-secret" way, it's Ludvig. So... How's Maxis named? Imo, it's Ludwig, -like Beethoven-, but the "w" in german is pronounced as "v", so maybe the team that made the intro for Origins just messed up.

After I hit my first 50+ in Ascension this week, I thought I would try for my first 50+ on another map, one of my all time favorites Shangri La. At about round 20, I was having a lot of fun as I had taught myself the cutback route to run in the AK 74u room, and had my near ideal set-up (Jug, Revive, PhD, Stamin Up, M&S, Spikemore, Bowie, and un-pap'd baby gun). all was going well and I was ready to pack my shrink ray, so I run up to spawn. I noticed a little bit too late that there was a Napalm zombie I had passed, so I attempted to cross back over the spikes and blow him up. Unfortunately, I was caught inside of the spike trap when he blew and I insta-downed. While I…

Here is an article exert from Eurogamer who interviewed Jason Blundell who answers the question - "Why Call of Duty Zombies isn't its own game" http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2015-10-15-treyarch-why-call-of-duty-zombies-isnt-its-own-game http://www.gamespot.com/articles/call-of-duty-dev-discusses-why-zombies-mode-isnt-a/1100-6431448/ Call of Duty's Zombies mode has grown from being a cool bonus to one of the best things - for some the best thing - about the first-person shooter series. And for a few years now some have called for Activision to create a standalone Zombies game, the idea being that a bigger budget and more development time would result in a bet…

Ok first thing is first, I am just brainstorming here so please give supportive criticism and have an open mind, thanks! Now, if you haven't noticed, almost all Zombie maps are models taken directly out of the singleplayer or multiplayer. Now if you didn't notice this either, they are usually incredibly close by, if not in the exact place. Key: Z = Zombies mode SP = Single Player MP = Multi-Player Examples: [Z] Verruckt (Berlin, Germany) = [sP] Ring of Steel (Berlin, Germany) = [MP] Asylum (Berlin, Germany) [Z] Der Riese (near Breslau, Germany) = [sP] Eviction (Berlin, Germany) = [MP] Nightfire (Berlin, Germany) [Z] Kino (Berlin Wall, Germany) =…

Most of you guys know that the old zombie count formula was incorrect. Here is the new formula discovered by BinText which is 100% accurate past round 12.. Number of zombies per round Single player =0.0842 * (R)^2 + 0.1954 * (R) + 22.05 2 Players =0.1793 * (R)^2 + 0.0405 * (R) + 23.187 3 Players =0.262 * (R)^2 + 0.301 * (R) + 33.114 4 Players =0.3462 * (R)^2 + 0.4964 * (R) + 43.164 Replace 'R' with Row() Function in Excel to make this formula work. EDIT:I promised I was going to update my previous chart and I finally did because the previous one was bit confusing to read. Let me know if you guys see any inconsistencies. Here is the spreads…

I was listening to the Moon Radios and I noticed that Maxis did not teleport DIRECTLY to the moon as i once thought he did. Use this for reference: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oe8s_Vz8VRI skip to 12:15 This radio file details the scientists at Griffin Station as they locate Maxis and bring him to Griffin Station via MPD. If you listen closely at 13:23 Maxis gives a hint at where he was pre-teleportation. He seems to say "tunnel"? My question is, does anyone have any theories as o where Maxis was teleported to from Der Riese? Evidence to back it up would be appreciated. Thanks :)

I've been ranting about the hardened edition for BO2 lots this year because it might include the old zombie maps and i really want to know if it does and when its released. Is it likely they will include them? It will boost sales greatly IMO. I've never bought a hardened edition before so i don't know the price range of them. Could anyone tell me roughly how much it would cost (GBP £) and would you get a download code for the maps or do they come on the disc? Hopefully Nuketown 2025 is also included in Hardened

Ok we all know theres going to be a 4vs4 game option in the next zombies, so I had some ideas: 1: anti drops 2: the drop.... My first idea was that in addition to the normal green drops ( Carpender, double points, fire sale, death machine, insta kill, and max amo) there would be red drops as well: Carpender: causes more zombies to spawn that wont effect your team but is a real pain for the opposet team... 2 points: for a short period of time make the opposet team receive half the points they would normally get.... Insta-kill: will cause the other team to become one hit down(or if they had jug, 2) for a short time... Max amo: refills your…

Hi everyone who likes zombie mode! We already know that when we kill a zombie using a knife, we sometimes rush to the zombie. Recently I heard that the distance for rushing is sometimes very long. So our group investigated the distance. And we also thought about the application of it. It was found that when we kill a zombie using a knife, the rush distance can become very long. It was confirmed that the distance is from an end to end at the first room at Der Riese as shown in our video. We thought that this may be able to apply to other situation. 1. Moving at marshy place on Shangri-la. It could move smoothly and fastly there. 2. Passing through o…

Okay so let me lay out the foundations, There are certain aspects of a zombies map we anticipate most Some being: the song, the setting itself, and for me...the Wonder Weapon. Green Run and Nuketown both Do Not contain even a glimpse of one. (For the remaining 3 people who thinks the Jet Gun is a Wonder Weapon, it isn't due to it not running on element 115) I feel Treyarch could of blown us away on this occasion with some over the top gun that's most importantly fun. Don't get me wrong I thoroughly enjoy Green run as a whole it's just that I always anticipate from a Zombies map. It might be just me with this thought, I just wanted to get it off my chest. Oh And…

FIRST, LET ME GET ONE THING CLEAR. I FUCKING LOVE ZOMBIES. I HAVE SINCE UNTOTEN. I HAVE A SIGNED COPY OF WORLD AT WAR CASE THANKS TO THE TREYARCH DEVS FROM A WeTheGamerz TOURNEY. (ZergIing, WAS MY OLD GAMERTAG.) So before I start with the proposed ideas, here is the main problem I have with the current zombie mode. -Zombies gain health after each round, and become "invincible," rendering most guns worthless after round 20 or so. Broke players that go down in later rounds are stuck in purgatory hell hoping for a nice random roll, or an instant kill. This alone causes rounds 30+ to be exactly the same. So getting to rounds 42, 65, 87 arent determined by skill, but…

I haven't read any new threads in Asylum, so I don't know if anyone has pursued this avenue also. If you have played through Solo, (or watched a YouTube video), you've found that we have another Cut Scene, as we did in CotD. We see a great many things in this scene. We also HEAR a great many things. Of the things we see, we see the N4 transported to China with a PURPLE beam of light. As far a color and influences go, far as im concerned, both the Maxis' are orange/yellow, and Richtofen is Blue. Then we hear Stulinger talking with some "Voice," and saying, "What do you mean? Dont you get it, there's nothing left!" I'll tie this in, give me a moment. Th…

So I was playing with some randoms today (just out of boredom and fun) and I noticed that with the update treyarch made it where you join random players who do not have a full lobby. This can either work out good.. Or bad. In my case it was bad, I spawned on round 12 with nothing but a pistol in the power room, confused I thought I glitches and the ransoms told me "no you can join games already in session" I then died trying to start a train with no jug.. I was so confused I just quit. I joined another game, same result except this time these ransoms were on round 18! I spawned on the roof luckily with the others and pretty much hide behind everyone with PaP weapon…
