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 video, from the BNT232-875 channel, seems to be a zombie remix of the Nuketown easter egg song: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7y6c6KEspaA

I know that almost all of my posts have to do with musical Easter Eggs, but this will be my final one. My Idea is this: A Radio! I believe that while playing zombies, there should be a buyable radio. Maybe 100 points to operate, each radio contained 5 songs. I believe this is a good idea due to the fact that everyone likes their own style of music. For example, I would love to play to "Diamond Eyes" by Shinedown, or some Dubstep. Others like different genres. This way everyone has their own song to play while killing some zombies. (The radio idea would also work due to the fact that Nuketown takes place in the 60's, and radios were at the height of their popular…

I think I found what could possibly be an important part of the storyline. In Nazi Germany there was a society of people who believed in a Book called "Vril, the Power of the Coming Race" by Edward Bulwer-Lytton. In this book a young weathly man who accidently finds his way into a subbterraean world occupied by people who resemble angels that are called the Vril-ya. The hero soon discovers that the Vril-ya are descendants of an antediluvian civilization who live in networks of subterranean caverns linked by tunnels. This civilazation is technologicaly advanced the most important tool "all-permeating fluid" called "Vril", a latent source of energy which his spiritually ele…

This has been interesting to me for quite awhile. Since zombies is based upon tactics and team work, will elite be moving into zombies? Cause everything elite sort of fits into zombies.

I was just going through Berlin Wall randomly when I discovered something very familiar. These two things remind you of anything? There's also one that says Der Verruckt. But these two really caught my eye. I have a good theory about 601 that I will be posting in the coming days.

With the recent release of MW3, then the chances are, black ops will like all other cods before it, become a distant memory. But zombies as always live on, and the question I ask is what would you like to see in the next zombie game, personally I want a more interactive storyline, a rpg style survival game. Now before you all start complaining this would ruin the experience, I think it would inject a little of that spark zombies needed, for me once we got to the moon I lost the enjoyment of the storyline, the realism of it got me hooked, with Verruckt, Shi No Numa and Der Riese in my opinion being more believable, and if it had been just area 51 then I may have enjoyed i…

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0LXCsgqhQZQ I found this link on youtube, and it looks like it could be a zombie map. There is also more pictures of this map. It reminds me of a SAW type map. Seems legit, but you never know. Any Ideas? And Any Ideas Of How This Map (IF TRUE) Could Link To The Story Line?

Would you guys like it if they had another Russian map? I mean, there really only was Ascension. What I was thinking would maybe be like Pripyat or like THE KREMLIN or something. Imagine....KGB Zombies?

Many people wonder what perks to use. Of course you will always want Juggernog. Wunder Weapons 1. Ray Gun- With severe splash damage and a long reloading time, I suggest using PhD Flopper and Speed cola. maybe double tap if you want to mow down hordes quickly. 2. Thunder Gun- This gun is very heavy and has a small magazine capacity, though you shouldn't have to shoot it often. I reccomend stamin-up, and maybe speed cola, though not really necessary. 3. Wave Gun- Big gun, long reload time. I suggest Stamin-up and Speed cola. 4. Winter’s Howl- Small magazine capacity and long reload time. Use Speed cola with it. 5. Scavenger- As long as you keep your distance, y…

Still, some of you may want the individual attention of a hypothetical specific game situation, some of you may have specific habit you'd like to break, or maybe you were in a situation that you want to handle better next time. Think of this as one of my presents to you guys, a place where you can come to just hang out and present to us your advice. I hope that you guys will spread the word that anyone having trouble with their game can come here to talk to me about specific details of what they need to work on. In addition, it probably won't be just me; I can guarantee that your favorite strategist will be here to help you out as well. Think of this …

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…

Speaking to Official PlayStation Magazine UK Treyarch studio head Mark Lamia has hinted at the future of Black Ops 2 zombies. I personally think it should be increased and it is! Now I can play with more friends. What do you think?

*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?

New perk ideas I thought would be nice. If you have any suggestions let me know and I'll put them up here. Esurance: If downed you keep all your perks except for Esurance. Cost 4000 points. EPerk: Allows you to have up to 5 perks. Cost 5000. Amm-O-Matic: After each round you are rewarded a personal Max Ammo for all guns and equipment. Cost 6000. Fire Starter: 10% extra damage when using fire weapons. Fire stays on the ground for about 15 seconds and hurts teammates and zombies. Cost 3000. Now introducing the Pack-A-Perk system. Next to Pack-A-Punch machine except its in the form of a soda machine. Has all perks listed on it. Select one perk on the…

What would you prefer to see Treyarch do in their next installment of zombies: Do you think zombies needs to start becoming more dependant on the SURVIVAL aspect, taking in many other accounts like luck and higher costing weapons & ammo making it a very hard game to master. Or would you prefer more on the side of the story, more EE possibly a few cutscenes (not to take away from the hunting) giving a lot more on the story in every map really giving you a good idea of what this is about. Or would you rather the game to be more fun, this'll take into account the ways you can play with others along with more unrealistic weaponary like that baby maker thing f…

I had this random thought a while ago, just now telling anyone about it. I have come up with something that I think would be a pretty good "Play thing". The Fuse Two. It's essentially a modded pack a punch machine, but it performs fusions of weapons. Sound a bit far-fetched yet? lol. Here's a run down: Their would be 3 slots on this machine. The top left would be ammo, top right would be body, and the bottom would be where your fused guns would be returned to you. What I mean by ammo and body, is this. Lets say you stuck a raygun in the ammo slot, then turned around and stuck your Hk21 in the right slot. Your fusion would be a Hk21 that shot raygun shots the co…

I find it "funny" that people are so obsessed with the box they won't open any doors, could care less about the power on to get perks, and will blow all their points on the box on round 4 because they want a ray gun so bad and once they get it they're going down every 3 seconds because they don't realize it's a smart idea to turn the power on first and grab jugg and phd and they scream that they have a ray gun and you NEED to revive them. If you're that hellbent on one shotting zombies on round 5 just grab the stakeout and spare everyone the annoyance lol My solution? Always spawn the box when you first start the game in the power room. Verruckt, Ascension, Der Reise…

Hey guys, so I hit round 37 on the No Doors Open solo challenge on Moon, setting a new world record; proper gameplay video to come soon but I had to show you guys this... I go down at round 37, get back up and buy my 2nd QR. At the exact moment that the QR registers, I also take a 2nd hit. The result is some strange ghost-mode glitch, the zombies think I'm dead but I'm still basically alive apart from the fact that I can't draw my gun, knife, take off my PES or anything. I can open doors, so I jump off the cliff and teleport straight back to the Recieving Bay??? So I try teleporting, noticing that new spawners go for me but can't hit me. Once I teleport though, …

Hi, I'm Jay, the oldest member but the least mature. Had a game yesterday with other members doing way's trench gun challenge and it was the most fun I had in months. I want to encourage more people do the challenges. They are fun and provide great member interactions. I would like to pitch the idea of challenge leaderboards. Maybe shooter and/or way can maintain and organize these challenges. I see 5and5 do many of these challenges, and seen pishifat in action as well. Way has sponsored and organized many of these challenges. Survival of the fittest, round 15 no jug no box, trench gun among many I have attempted, so much fun if you have the right guys to …

Hello everyone. I bring you a new type of weapon discussion. We will be talking about guns that I have found while scouring the CODZL trailers, and while viewing a lot of the concept art displayed by various users on this site. With help from Tac on pictures and analyzation, I will be updating this quite often. I would like to start things off now. I feel this is needed to keep things rolling in a positive direction. It will also give everyone something to fall back on, while discovering and analyzing the Treyarch hint: "Shangri-la Mountains?" All images and videos were found online and I take no credit for them, credit goes to the original people who made this info possi…

I have a theory, I believe, that the picture of the woman released by Treyarch, could be Samantha, and she could be an essential character to stopping Dr. rictofen, and once and for all, Getting rid of the zombies. Perhaps the story will finish off with a remake of moon, where its a different moon base although there is a pyramid just like the one in Black Ops' "Moon", And Samantha and her allies, (Dempsey, Nikolai and Takeo) Must complete an easter egg to get Rictofen out of the pyramid, and stop his control over the zombies. Although, this is all just a theory of mine. Give me you'r thoughts on this on where you agree and/or disagree. Thankyou :D
