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.

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…

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…

Had a game with three randoms last weekend on Der Riese. Once we reached the Thompson room I never left, unless to grab perks and such. In random lobbies, it's like marking your territory, this is my personal property. Except for seemingly hitting the box for ten minutes every round, the four of us got along fine. Round 25 one starts to constantly running thru my property a few times a round. From the trap he would head straight for the steps, leaving me vulnerable meeting his train while still dealing with mine. I turned the trap on a few times to warn him such move may have consequences, yet he got away every time and took it as a declaration of war. Eventually I…

So yea.... its been a year today since I joined this wonderful community. And I am very glad that when I started looking for forums, that I found this one. Truthfully I joined the forum for two reasons. I really enjoyed zombies, and I wanted to share my youtube videos with everyone. After a while the second reason became irrelevant. And a new reason came up to why I stayed. I just loved talking about zombies to people that enjoyed it as much as I did. I started off strong. And I posted a lot and was becoming fearful that people may call me a post-padder because of my past experiences. But that is just who I am. When I enjoy something so much, I want to talk about it. S…

TOPIC OF CONTENTS A. What is it, and what causes it B. Maps it is present on C. Games in which I encountered the lag (How to deal with it) D. Various Wr's with framelag (videos) No intro here today, as I will get straight to the topic: framelag What is it, and what causes it? Framelag, in layman's terms is "a slowdown in frames per second." In my opinion, framelag is a progressive slowdown of the game due to one thing. And oddly enough, the cause of framelag is THE BOX. Wierd, right? Well, actually, I can explain. On maps such as Ascension, Call of the Dead, and Shangri-la (BO1 only, BO2 and WaW wierdly do not have this), you all should know that you can o…

Normally when I log on, I scan through the topics for guys I know who always leave good posts. After spending some time on these forums you develop a good idea who is readable, who to avoid, and who are really good. We all have tendencies, with enough sample size you could form characteristics on these individuals you share the forums with. Believe it or not, you have some gaming tendencies too. In a team environment, certain guys are built for certain roles and others capable of anything, depending on the situation. Regardless of roles and situations, you work together to get the job done. No matter how good you are individually, playing as a team gets you furth…

Beautiful sunny 50s today in Western PA. Went shopping today with the misses and bought a couple Spyder products. A mid weight full zipper and a sweater hoody for less than $160, I consider myself a shopping genius. Had a game a few nights ago, with three randoms on my favorite map Five. The four of us kinda played separately and each had a different type of game. When the game ended on 26, I couldn't decide who was the best player and who was the worst. Player A was your classic definition of juggernaut. He ran away with kills early and never looked back. He ran the war room and rarely needed help. By round 26 he had 6 downs, but as the white player he att…

Finally hooked up my 360 late around 12 midnight, after taking a 3 hour nap. Played with few ranodms, none had mic. 2 had knifes and other was skull like myself. Had a decent start, went down trying to activate gen 4 and got picked up by knife guy. I did decent when panzer showed up, fortunately had enough to buy jugg and stamin up, got a few revives in the process and knocked panzer down after a few mins. 15 plus rounds, I was spinning box, got everything, including ray gun monkeys and galil. Random went down by tank near Gen 6, picked him up, he goes down again because instead of following me he went the other way where all the zombies were coming from, after 3 more dow…

I've been playing a bit of Nuketown Zombies recently. In that, one of my priorities is to get the Galvaknuckles as soon as possible (I buy a wall gun like the AK-74u in the process, as I can't get that many points with just a pistol). While using the Galvaknuckles, I found them to miss now and again and be a little bit clunky. I thought this was due to the general knife mechanics, which in my opinion function a lot worse than in BO1. However, one time I decided to pick up a Bowie Knife along the way. I found when using it that it felt overall easier to use. One thing that I had the impression of was that the recovery time between melees was a bit shorter than with…

Which game in your opinion had the best zombies? Personally, I'm a fan of almost all Black Ops 1 maps, so if I had to choose, BO1 would win. I do enjoy Der Reise, Mob of The Dead, and Origins however. What about you? --------------------------------------------------- - www.youtube.com/Immadrunkmonkey CoD Zombies and more

Hey, I'm doing a new series on my YouTube channel where its a cool interactive contest to find out what zombie map is the best of them all. 16 total zombie maps is perfect for a bracket style competition where zombie maps go head-to-head until only one remains. How do we choose which map wins? You vote for it. Check out the first video for Round 1, Tranzit vs. Origins and vote for which ever one is your favorite. I'll try my best to update this post every-so-often, but Subscribing is probably the best way to be notified when a new video is released.

Today, something finally clicked in me. Well, 2 things, but they are separate and will be addressed separately. The first of these was about Maxis, and his apparent suicide for no reason in front of the MPD on the Moon. This is evidenced in the radio on Moon, where Maxis asks Samantha to "Kill them... all.". After he speaks those words, a few sounds are heard, and then a gunshot. Many, me included, believe this to be Maxis killing himself. After this happens, Schuster screams "No!" and Maxis' soul is absorbed into the MPD. What led Maxis to kill himself? I believe it was a combination of 2 things; sickness and knowledge. What? You don't understand? I thought as…

Shi No Numa is where it all Began....Our journey with our favorite characters...Nikolai, Dempsey, Richtofen, and Takeo...... All in a Swamp......but is there a secret we have overlooked? There is strong evidence that Shi No Numa is Nothing but a fairy tale. But the real shocker is which fairy tale. Let us look at our first Piece of Evidence What is a common enemy often seen in fairy tales? An essence of evil or just simple Malice? Appearing in tales such as little red riding hood and the three little Pigs......Wolves.... or in this particular tale ...Hellhounds Why are Hellhounds in this Map? Easy.....Because every story needs a big bad wolf... But w…

You know, I get it. When someone gets downed WAAAAAY across the map, and it's round 25, you just can't go get them. I get that. BUT.......when they are downed right in front of you.....on round 5......nobody is around......hmm, just teabag them!! I MEAN WTF?!!! That just happened to me and I really didn't think that happens I really should have got the guy back but I didn't think about it and just quit. All I can do is just say "unsporting" in the player review. As for my question, I'm kinda both. I go out on my own, but the first time someone goes down, me and my "Awful Lawton", "Monkey Bombs", "ThunderGun", etc will be the first to be there! I also like doing …

Hi, it's the boring guy here. Those that know me know that I like to make my points with real stories. Here we go. Was in a game with three Mic randoms on Five, high rounds 34, 35, and 38. I was told to turn on my Mic or they would leave. I did as told but noted that I'm not Mic friendly. Why is having a Mic a priority? I feel that I can be just as reliable without Mic and have a great sense of feel for what should be done. My two best games on Five were with micless cooperative randoms who know how to play the team game. Besides, most Mic randoms deserve to be muted, and personally I enjoy the likes of Dane Cook, Russel Peters, and Chris Rock while p…

These kinds of people are the WORST to me, particularly in the maps: Origins, and Mob of the dead. And to be more specific, those who want to take the free blundergat and a specific staff. See I'm a reasonable guy whom fallows reasonable rules: -Guy who gets blundergat from the box does not get free blundergat unless no one else wants it. -Guy who collects the most blue skulls gets the free blundergat (unless the blundergat's assignment has been pre-determined) -Don't touch another person's staff (especially with recent glitches) -A staff is yours if the lobby as a majority deems you to have it. -The person who claims a staff is responsible for buil…

Hi, it's the boring guy. I'm sitting in the Infiniti service department today. Really came in just for oil change, ended up agreeing to State Inspection, new brakes, cabin and air filters, wheel alignment and tire rotation, as well as other services totaling $900. I'm what they called a mooch. Whenever I visit a mechanism they make me bend over. Here is a very simple concept, yet no-one talks about; explosions happen if you dick too much. I play with randoms a lot, and seen just about everything. Over time I slowly become a dick. I rarely spend unnecessary points to help the team. I barely execute the plans others agree upon. I never put myself after th…

The Trials custom community astounds me sometimes. Seriously, this right here? This is crazy. Sure, it might not look amazing, but the fact that he turned Trials, a game about bikes into a FIRST PERSON SHOOTER is incredible.

Here's a question to ask zombie fans: What will become of the Raygun M2? Will it not return? Will it be available to everyone from the start? Will it be apart of a Micro-DLC or part of a normal DLC again? What are your ideas on what trayarch should do with the M2? Personally I think the SMARTEST thing to do is release it as a pre-order bonus. It's more effective then a T-shirt but is liked better by the players then gouging out a map as a micro-DLC. Plus, who ISN'T going to pre-order the M2?

Hang on. If we are talking about universes, I got it. WAW-BOII exists on what I call Earth-1. Now, Origins is special. It starts the saga of our heroes on Earth-2. At the end of Origins, Samantha teleports our heroes minus Richy to the Giant. She teleports Richy to Shadows to get the Summoning Key, as seen in the Easter Egg cutscene. Now, the portal that he runs through takes him to the teleporter in the Giant. The oping cutscene happens, Richy shoots himself, signifying his plan to use the Key and other devices to set his past and future right. BOOM!

I was viewing some of the recent interviews with Jason Blundell of Zombies YouTube folk, when I thought about a certain situation. Imagine if someone from CoDZ Forums, lets say @InfestLithium, is invited to the Treyarch HQ to have a conversation with mr. Blundell (or an interview via internet or Skype), what would you like to question him? This site is the first result on google when one searches "CoDZ". This site is the second biggest (after Reddit) Zombies community, and comparing with CoDZombies Reddit, this site has a lot more devoted and serious members (from my point of view). Sure, Treyarch can only invite Youtube individuals to have an interview, but w…

I joined this site some years ago once I had become hooked on Bo2 - tranzit to be specific and I was generally blown away with 3 of my friends. I don't think we have had a gaming experience quite like the first few plays of the map and at least 1 person always missing the bus with disastrous yet hilarious consequences. While we had all played Kino, i make no exaggeration when I say we struggled to really get past the first doors because we would always wait for dogs with our pistols and eventually go down being the noobs that we were. While we understood the need to buy doors I guess the progression factor hadnt clicked with us. regardless we only saw the myst…
