For those who wish to talk and discuss, or speculate, their ideas for upcoming Zombies maps.
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.

Everyone remembers that achievement. We had to complete Richtofen's Grand Scheme on the moon. However, a lot of people wondered what it really meant. Are our characters sleeping in their cryostasis? Not right now, because not even Maxis can locate his daughter. This would be simple if she was just "sleeping" on the moon. No, this "cryogenic" slumber party isn't going to happen...because it already did. Hear me out. In the trailer, we saw our O4 in a youthful state. Yet, they aren't as youthful as we would have first thought. They still look quite old, like late 20's or early 30's. Of course, this couldn't be the case timewise because that would make them in thei…

I have not seen anybody talk about how going back this far (and it not being purgatory scenario)effects our weaponry and perks. Do you expect to have some of the perk machines and inventions not invented yet(ray gun) ? Does 935 have the technology back then to accommodate our desire for zombie annihilation ? Or will it be stripped down to our glory days of WaW zombies ? I think our heroes will be neck deep in the operation already at our time of intervention(time lapse of infiltration).Anyone familiar with background story remember Richtofen brainwashing and torturing the others? But to what degree will they provide this familiar zombie experience without taking away ever…

When do you think we will get a trailer. I VERY much doubt it will be the 13th. Simply due to that being a day before the Ghosts MP reveal. They just usually don't do that. One can argue the reason they made the date the 14th, is because a trailer will be on the 13th but idk. I am still holding out for this week. I went back and looked at trailers they released not on a Tuesday. The BO2 Zombies reveal was on Wednesday, and some Rezzurection stuff was on Thursday, and Friday. Like I said I am holding out hope for some teaser this week. What do you think? PS sorry for some possibly bad grammar.

After going through the Verruckt, the video shows the younger Richtofen with his body. He is bringing 2 Blood Samples that can be seen. On the test tubes containing blood samples read: "481B" and "386A" Which, in Mob of the Dead, is the serial number for Sal and Finn respectively. Check it out if you haven't discovered it!

So, after watching the "Origins" teaser (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VB_9esQucmw) many thoughts have come to mind The most important to the large scale zombie storyline however is: What are the o4 doing in 1917, and why is it the end of their story? My thinking is that it will be one of two motivations of Richtofen: Motivation 1: Richtofen has seen what the zombies have done to the world, and although he may end up being the dictator of the world as controller of the zombies (after Richtofen's blops2 easter eggs are completed), he realises that it is not a world he would like to be king of, as there is not much life left to control. Therefore h…

I know I'm not the only one who is pumped to see some new info, and wow. A giant mech warrior? I don't think any of us expected that. But maybe we should have. Firstly there is the obvious connection between this machine and Der Riese, which is that Der Riese is German for "the giant". The sign on the facility's wall reads "waffenfabrik Der Riese" which means weapon factory: the giant. Maybe this name doesn't refer to the facility itself, but whatever they manufactured there. As MrRoflWaffles has pointed out, there are several frames flashed during the trailer, which form an image when photoshopped together. The 935 logo is visible in the image, so we can assu…

We're almost certain that our characters are travelling back to 1917 during World War 1. A lot of people are thinking this map will simply be a prelude to Nazi Zombies and not an actual story continuation that'll raise more questions than answers, but from what LiamFTWinter had found from the video, his "spliced" image of the test being conducted on what is potentially the first zombie could indicate THIS is where it all began (metaphorically). What if this is where the characters are travelling to in order to PREVENT from the Zombie events from ever happening, thereby "saving" the world and ending the story? (judging by Treyarchs posts that every story has a …

So in the recent "Letters From the Field" from Treyarch's Facebook page, aside from other "sources", there has been mention that there is the possibility of a giant metal man in Northern France, where the next map is supposedly taking place. Recently I've been looking into stuff that was hidden in Der Riese, and I discovered something that read "Die Glocke is mobile." This implies at the time of writing the note, Die Glocke isn't currently at Der Riese, so there's a possibility the teleporters weren't actually Die Glocke, but was instead this giant machine. This is just a quick theory I threw together at one in the morning, so it likely has many holes. What ar…

Here we can see men impaled above the trenches during the teaser trailer. It makes me think that it is not a usual war scene. As in the battle that there "Giant Metal Men" are in aren't really in a normal event... Basically, what I'm trying to say is that this scene is not taken from an ordinary battle, and I'd like to hear your thoughts. Please discuss. -Fu

Whaddup guys, I've recently been thinking about how we now have a lot of talk that the O4 are returning and that the whole story with the N4 is done. Well, there's reason to believe that with all the hints 3arc has dropped, not to mention that the choices we made finally had an outcome with either Maxis or Richtofen in control. Also, once we finished the final endgame step, all of the Easter Eggs reset. This pretty much means that nothing that we had done really matters past that point. To me, that really seems to correlate with what happened with the Moon Easter Egg in BO1. The story with the O4 sort of ended right there for a while. Well, perhaps that is happening …

The official "Call Of Duty: Black Ops" page just posted this. Thoughts? View the post here. **UPDATE** The offical Treyarch page posted it as well. They also tweeted it as well. I'll continue to update.

Treyarch recently posted the video on their vine. One of the frames looks like, to me, a syringe. Seeing as the time the next map is set in (1917) is before the perks were invented, people were talking about the perks being injections. Here is a photo of a syringe. http://picpaste.com/Screen_Shot2013-08-07_09_31_42-png-IWjPtmkn.jpg

Right so I've been away for a wee while, and talks of some metal dude appearing in the next dlc is increasing. So my question is what did we know of him before? Any links, info etc would be appreciated.

I've been wanting to post this for the past few months. From the video released from treyarc today we can see that the 4th or 5th doc will contain the four original BO dlc maps and possibly also five and kino der toten. But what if they're not releasing the standard maps with just added BO weapons? What if, because of the events of Moon, that the 6 BO maps are altered? What if the 3 super nukes changed the maps so that new areas are available and other hidden secrets? Taking into consideration this idea, what if the closer each of the nukes was to the specific BO maps, the more was altered? For example, because we know one of the nukes was detonated in N…

Hello everyone!!! A few minutes ago 'Treyarch Studios' sent out a vine video on their twitter page, here it is: Twitter Status: https://twitter.com/Treyarch/statuses/3 ... 9406828548 Direct Video Link (I couldn't seem to play the vine video on the website so here is the direct video link): https://mtc.cdn.vine.co/r/videos/F2E235 ... ONNPtfSWIB Vine Link: https://vine.co/v/hbF5W35QvBx So, what do you all think? Is this a hint of what's to come... or what was before? :shock:

I believe that Treyarch should release both a map pack 4 and 5 on the same day, August 27th, and they would both be all zombie maps. Map Pack 4 would include: New Zombie Map Ascension (re-mastered) Call of the Dead (re-mastered) Shangri-La (re-mastered) Moon (re-mastered) Map Pack 5 would include: Nacht der Untoten (re-mastered) Verruckt (re-mastered) Shi No Numa (re-mastered) Der Riese (re-mastered) Kino Der Toten (re-mastered) Five (re-mastered) Dead Ops Arcade (re-mastered) These are just ideas though, and would allow thoughs who want just the new zombie map, and the DLC from Black Ops 1 to get the maps they won't and those who wa…

Okay I know everyone has mixed feelings about bringing the older maps back, some for their second time. But how about bringing them back with some notable additions, seen below. Using Der Riese as an example: Buildables (Turbine, Trample Steam, Zombie Shield) -Tables (starting room, STG room, Trench gun room) BO2 Mystery Box (includes Wunderwaffe) Same wall weapons as WaW. All guns use TranZit pap (or maybe MP) Perks (QR, Jugg, Speed, DT2, Mulekick, PhD, Stamin-up, Deadshot) BO2 Walker zombies Persistent Upgrades Bank Fridge EE which gives you all perks I don't know what you guys think (prob hate it ) but I would enjoy this map

Yep, Treyarch got us a better picture of the "Mauser" weapon today, in the "Letters From The Field" photo album! Mauser (PROTOTYPE CXS)- MAXIS JAN. 5, 1915. ATTACHMENT SCOPE There also seems to be some type of code at the bottom. It's in the square under Maxis. Maxis scale: 11' 7" weight: 1,320g code: m1916cxs I believe that this is not a WW, but rather a new weapon being introduced, such as the Remington New Model Army, or the M1927. Also, some people have said it may be the M1915. I searched "M1915", and only found automatic weapons, or tiny pistols. I tried "Mauser 1915", and only rifles/shotguns popped up. Hopefully, we have mo…

hey guys, so ive got another theory that might tease towards the next map and is related to der riese. If u check the description for der riese it says this :"The giant is rising.Face the might of the zombies in their heartland.This is where it all began.Is this where it all ends?" the last sentence got my attention RECENTLY. so now if u go back to the letter treyarch posted on their facebook nikolai says something about giant metal men.Possibly a new boss,BUT maybe der riese was a facility to CREATE those giant metal men by maxis to destroy richtofen?? commemt below what u thing (MrDalekJD did a video about this) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v…

Okay, Treyarch put new images up on their FaceBook. They were notes that seemed to have been writen by someone of Japanese decent. He also mentions a Doctor in one of his notes. To me, this seems to much like Takeo and Richtofen. Now, there have been a ton of posts about how the O4 are alive and the next map is after Moon, etc....but what if it isn't? These notes are dated before any of the other events (as far as I know) could the map be what happened before they all lost their minds due to Richtofen? Or possibly after he worked on them but before Shi No Numa? A sort of prologue, if you will? Just my take on it.
