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.

This theory came to me in a moment where the stars aligned, the sun shone bright and the gods felt good. What I am about to bring you today could shatter your understanding of everything you ever thought you knew about the storyline and our main story characters (Samantha, Richtofen & Maxis, the Trinity of Zombies). Maxis. A man who is crucial in our story. We've always thought we knew who Maxis was, but I am here today to share with you what Origins' ending brought us story wise, and how it all ties into the game we all know and love. I will divide this into three pieces: Part A, which is mainly theory with no evidence, the other two parts are just the continuat…

ZOMBIES CUTTING ROOM FLOOR (Work In Progress) Much like any other game, CoD Zombies contains a large amount of unused data and content that was cut somewhere during post-production This thread is dedicated to unearthing all that content. From upgradable Jetguns to Ambush Rounds, NML, music, textures, quotes and more. Let's dive into the stuff that wasn't intended for the average zombie slayer to know or hear about. Luckily for us, CoDZ is anything but average. WAW ZOMBIES Other than that, not much is known about the perk itself. It was probably cut because of balacing issues. MAP PACK 4 Map Pack 4 is a cut map pack from CoD: World At War. T…

So one day this week(not sure which day) i was playing some town survival. I rounded up all the zombies in a train and brought them upstairs in the bar. Now i know sometimes when you spray a group of zombies with a Ray Gun some of the zombies will fly over the map similar to when you shoot a group with a thundergun. But this time it was different. As i unloaded my Ray Gun into the horde chasing me they started to fly around like normal but this zombie was stretched from wall to wall. This zombie was not transparent i couldnt go through it at all and it stayed there the whole game. Has this ever happened to anyone else? It was actually a pretty funny glitch although i cou…

Maxis, returned_tranzit & Black Ops III - The Future of Zombies - TranZit. The map you either love or hate. The map of first impressions and last words. A map which divided the community in a way rivalled only by that of the climactic end of the Black Ops 2 DLC season. But what is really behind this map, and, as Malukah once sung, "Where are we going from here?" Maxis' Cut Quotes Maxis had some quotes from TranZit that never made it into the final game. There are two of these such quotes in this game which are very intriguing, vox_maxi_future_dlc_0 & vox_maxi_future_nav_0. These quotes have had no way to be triggered to our knowledge... People …

I feel that in this point in the Zombies storyline that Dr. Maxis should be dead or gone. I mean: 1.Originally some speculated he died in the Der Riese teleporter; we found out he was alive in Moon. 2.In Moon you also find out that he is shot (I think) and dies on Moon with most of Group 935. 3.Later in the Easter Egg you find out he is in the Electronics Systems; Richtofen "deletes" him. 4.Later in the map, again, Maxis comes on the intercom. At first it appears like it's a recorded message, but he's actually "alive" (again) and goes on to BOII 5.In Buried if you do all of Richtofen's Easter Eggs he will make Maxis "cease to be" 6.The very next map, he's in a dig …

As the developers are working now to make sure we're all happy with the next round of zombies, what would you like to see from it? For me, I really want private matches to record rounds on the leaderboards if there is nothing changed from a normal game of zombies. That would make me much more happy to play zombies with friends to go high rounds.

Another few inches of snow, making this winter by far the most inconvenient in my memory. Can't get anything accomplished, so you'll see much of me in the next few days. Anyways, no one was available to goof around last night, so I hooked up with a few randoms for Town. I have been brutally critical of randoms as a whole, but I secretly enjoy the mystery and uncertainty of not knowing how the game would go. All three guys had mikes and they have the same setup; hit the box early and often, forget jug and others. I slowly saved up enough to get jug by round 6, knuckles by 11, and QR by 12. The three randoms each went down a few times and by 12 all gone down by …

Discovery So currently I'm playing a game of solo zombies on Five and the following has occurred: On the floor there is a reflection of the presidential room (can really be seen in Olympia/MPL hallways). Quick Revive's Symbol on the perk machine is a black circle. Chalk outlines can't be seen. The zombies are entirely black except for their eyes. I'm thinking that this is a glitch and it won't happen again (unfortunately I can't record) BUT this makes the map 1000X scarier. I'm actually liking it a lot! Has this happened to anyone before?? IT'S UNIVERSAL. I ended my game on Five and no joke Shangri-La looks like Area 51! As Delta said it appears that t…

Death traps, they are everywhere. You avoid them at all costs. Unfortunately during the course of a game, someone will go down in a death trap that you know you should not attempt to revive, but love the challenge that you couldn't. Assuming you have weak weapons and will revive based on pure skills. Let's list the notable death traps. -Double Tap, Town- When mystery box spawns there, you know someone will die there at some point. Past round 13, when you have the pistol and MP5, you need the stars to align in order to revive. I have only done it once vesus 100+ failed attempts, when I was the only one left, hoard the zombs and head up thru MP5 to clear the …

Hi everyone! AlphaOmega hear with another balls-busting question. This time, we move to the ending of BO II zombies with the Origins cutscene. Now the Questions: -Worth it? -Initial Reaction? -Is it Canon or a sidetrack story? -If it is Canon, in what way? -What is your interpretation? The last question is up to you to decide: What is the most popular/accepted theory you know? What is the stupidest? Alpha Out.

Hello MegaAfroMan here! Bringing you another contemplation on the game we all know and love as Zombies. Unfortunately I do not have any mind blowing theories, or life saving strategy guides, but instead would like to hear your input on what makes you rage in a game of zombies, be it solo or multiplayer, map related, AI related, or player related. I will go ahead and state my top ten reasons for raging. 10. Host migration. I hate it, everyone hates it. I have not found anyone who can say "I love host migration!" There is no real reason it has to be as bad as it is. And with the rarity of mics out there when you stumble into a lobby of 3 talkitive players with decent r…

Every so often when a new map comes out, I hear people say "hey, that was my idea! I made that idea months ago on the forums and now treyarch is using it!" Or alternatively, you might have just predicted a plot element correctly. These are the moments that fill us with pride and remind us that treyarch take feedback from the community, specifically CoDz. So tell me, what ideas have YOU contributed to the game? I feel like this might end up bringing back some awesome theories and posts from our senior members. Still even fresh faces have good ideas! In fact, try to copy/paste your old post if you can. I personally think I contributed to the Ghosts / Witches i…

Hey Guys, So due to the work of many people over the last 3 years CODZ is now a site with nearly 10,000 members. I'm going to estimate that there are probably 100 people who post here regularly. Maybe more, I'm not sure. Of those people I'm pretty certain that almost all know almost everyone's name, maybe know what they post about and what they are like. This to me is key to what makes me return to CODZ again and again. There's a real sense of community, rarely any arguments between longer standing members and a well moderated environment. I believe CODZ is going to keep growing and growing. Maybe not now, but in 4 months or so when there is more a…

If you were a hardcore player from BO1 you have noticed BO2's mechanics are slightly different. You might not be able to list every major difference from North to South Korea, but you were conscious enough to know they are not the same. Jay is nice enough to list the major differences in both versions, feel free to add anything forgotten. -Stun factor- In BO1 you could stun zombies from attacking you by shooting them. While they are being attacked their slaps are ineffective. In BO2 this feature has been eliminated. -Zombie encroachment- In BO1 you only hear the zombie sound when they are either respawning or approaching. Very evident that a zombies is ap…

I'm no Way or Chopper, but I'm no slouch either. I have had some moments others dream of having. But sharing your proudest moments is not the path we are walking today, we are going through the wall of shame, the dumbest moments you had. What's better bonding than guys laughing at one another? Mistakes happen, but some are consequential and some are down right embarrassing. I view myself as an intelligent wise individual, but even I at times are plagued by stupid mistakes. Let's list the dumbest and most damaging mistakes. -Trading in Mustang and Sally by accident- I lost count the number of times I trade in my favorite killing weapon thinking it was CZ 75.…

So here we are...2014. It has been a long journey with a few bumps in the road. 2012-2013 was definitely a year to remember in zombies. We got awesome content from Treyarch and saw their dedication to the fanbase. Now it is time to look back and remember, but to also look forward. So as my first topic of 2014: How did it end for you? Please answer any of these questions: -Did "Origins" end zombies for Black ops 2 well or not? -Will you be looking forward to more storyline or gameplay? -Has Treyarch made good on keeping to the fans and still giving a good experience? -What was the worst DLC? -What was the best DLC? -How did the VAs and Music do? -What wa…

Group 935 is a fanmade series based on Nazi zombies. Group 935 is an amazing series. There are only two episodes currently out. Budget is an issue and they need more views to film the rest of the series. Their goal right now is to get 100,000 views before January 1st. I wanted to show you guys since it's awesome and I think some of you guys would enjoy it also I wanted to support these guys and get them more views so they can continue making more.

While browsing reddit the other day I noticed something very interesting. There was a giveaway for a Developer signed copy of Black Ops II (wish I could've told you all, but the site was down for the mega redesign). Reading it, I noticed the OP said this: This is signed by the core Black Ops 2 Zombies team, I went around and got it exclusively signed by those of us who worked on TranZit at the time (as well as Die Rise and Buried thereafter). I find it odd how he doesn't mention that the Zombies team didn't work on Mob or Origins. This would imply that another team mainly worked on the maps. Maybe this is finally sufficient proof that the Campaign team created both ma…

Hi guys, I've been thinking lately about how everyone's talking about 8P Zombies in Black Ops 2, while this is definitely made possible by the fact that treyarch is running zombies on the MP engine, I don't see how it would work considering a variety of factors. #1 Map Size: I've heard that with 8p zombies the maps will be BF3 sized maps, I could see this but at the same time, that's still a very large map for 8 people to be playing on, revives would definitely be an issue, I honestly haven't found a happy medium for 8P Zombies, i don't see how they would make it work with the map size. #2 Max Spawn: 24 Zombies isn't going to be enough for 8 people, doub…

Have you ever found something completely on your own and you were very proud of it? For me this has happened two times. On the day Buried came out our group figured out a few of the easter egg steps by ourselves(which had never done before). It was really cool, considering the fact that we've done all the easter eggs from Ascension to Origins. As for my second, it was just a week or two ago playing Origins. My friend was AFK and I had the zombie in the staff room. I was just looking at the statue faces, and I realized that they were Richtofen, Takeo, Dempsey, and Nikolai!(I realize that this was probably found out a long time ago, but I never knew about it…

Don't read this. This is outdated. Hello there. In the original Black Ops, I set out to find stats of all the Zombies weapons so that when I go to the Mystery Box and am forced with a choice, I know exactly which weapon I want. It's helpful to know exactly which are better. I'm the kind of guy that could tell you exactly which Assault Rifles in Black Ops were better than others. As some of you may know, Black Ops II Zombies Weapon Stats have not been so kind. They are encrypted. So I have made this thread to hopefully pacify any and all, including myself, for the time being as to which weapons are better than others. First, I made this chart. The co…

Lately, I've been really looking at Archangel for any storyline significance I could gather from it. As many of you know, I love to look at the songs and see what Kevin Sherwood has attempted to communicate about the story through the lyrics. Archangel has been a funny one for me though because I've always despised the song. When I saw that we'd have all three vocalists on board, I thought it would be epic and I just felt it feel flat and missed out on a great chance to do something. So I avoided the song for a long time until I recently decided to listen to it some and try to see if anything stood out to me. Well in the past couple of days, my ears were brought to a…

I'm just interested in what is the biggest shortcoming when playing zombies? Do you always go for the drops that are out of your way? Does your connection kick you? Do you not know how to train? Are you impatient? These are all examples of things that can be improved. So what's your biggest shortcoming? Mine is that I can't focus. For example once the 50s start coming, training becomes redundant and I usually mess up the train and go down. Or I start taking stupid risks lol.
