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.

Moon was originally Paris as many know however I recently watched Playthegamecentral's A Drowning in Paris and I hope they bring back Moon in Black Ops 2 but retexture the map to recreate the original Paris idea. An example of reskinning a map would be studio, that is a reskinned version of Firing Range! A Drowning in Paris http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cLFnJsrsiis Like or Dislike? :D

Released by Vahn. https://soundcloud.com/davidvonderhaar/ ... t-strategy Nothing interesting. Probably a good chance Nolan North did this for Vahn to upload as a joke, or it could be a an EE line in DLC 3/4. Possibly one for Stu to hear? ;)

(Original Thread) (The following is a transcription of a video by me on the same topic. This was written with permission and in collaboration with Eric and so I feel it is appropriate to give it the same name.) Prior to housing the Alcatraz Federal Penitentiary, Alcatraz Island was held in high regard by the Native American People, and elements of the Aztec mythology permeates the entire map. The most obvious reference, other than the setting of the map itself, is the Hell’s Retriever - a Tomahawk - this being a stereotypical native american hand-axe, however the connections run far deeper than this. First noted by Eric Maynard on May 23 2013…

P85e2pb4W-4 Alright, so that was good ol, spider's take of the numbers, but here's what I think we've been given this info for... :geek: (Sherlock Holmes voice) Let's review our clues: We have a possible game dlc called "MOB of the dead" that was leaked, and I'm not going to consider this a "LEAK" because: A: That gives us VERY minimal information, we still wouldnt know the Characters in the map, the weapons, new features, or even where the map would be... And B: Its likely going to be announced (OR something else will be announced) soon enough... Back on subject, we have MOB of the dead, as well as tweets of numbers in the Fibonachi …

The Editor, A friend of mine and myself made a Zombies map idea. When we were discussing it, we both decided that I would provide some story elements to his discussion, with his own story elements in it as well. Meaning, I don't agree on everything he says in the video- especially the Orgones part. But it really did turn out to be a good map idea. Fairly simple actually if you think about it. It was made last year and didn't come around to thinking of sharing it with you guys until this morning. This idea takes place in year 2459, humanity is nearing extinction with the dead stalking their nights. Some people are set to the Cocoons; blocking off their knowledge of wh…

Do you think that 3arc should put a multiplayer zombies ranking level where you earn XP while slaying some zombies In my opinion it would be great except for the hackers hacking their levels What do you think? Yes Yes Yes or No No No!

Everybody knows about the coordinates on the note in Shadows of Evil. Here are some views from it that I believe easily solve where we are going this DLC season. Note DLC 2 and DLC 3 are interchangeable at this point. DLC 0: The Giant: Coordinates were near the location of the Der Riese facility. Centralized Character: Edward Richtofen (Origins Group) Mission Aim: Kill Edward Richtofen (The Giant) DLC 1: Der Eisendrache: Coordinates were near the location of Hohenwerfen Castle. Centralized Character: Tank Dempsey (Origins Group) Mission Aim: Kill Tank Dempsey (Test Subject) Evid…

Hello Despite this being my first post on the Call of Duty Zombies forums I am certainly not new to the zombie’s community, for one reason or another I decided to stay away from CoDz but now I fancied a post mainly due to boredom and nostalgic zombies feelings. Truth be told I really hate any other game in the Call of Duty series that isn’t made by Treyarch. Mainly because they are responsible for zombies but they also seem to be able to make more rounded enjoyable games. Therefore due to the addition of the Sledgehammer Games Call of Duty, creating a new 3 year cycle for COD games, I have been incredibly frustrated and bored having a summer where I don’t have new zom…

This started as an idea that I tossed out in passing, but the more I think about it the more it seems to make sense. Anyway, this would most likely pertain to the 3rd or 4th DLC, as the third and final spire will most likely be completed in the next one. Firstly, I'm adopting the name of this thread from Portal, so read up if you don't get it. The name is REALLY important for the theory. Let's consider this possibility: maxis is powering up spires in order to generate enough energy (like richtofen did with the Vril device) to perform a MPD soul-swap. As you know this required the power of over one hundred souls and several unique artifacts, which …

Hi, it's the boring guy here. I'm not really a creative or fantasizing guy, but I'm sharing my ray gun ideas. I thought to myself, if one of my ray gun ideas make it into the next game, I would score big time with my son and his friends. These are Ray Gun templates, each with special animations when zombies die. Ray Gun: The Vaporizer Clip/ Mag 10/90 Rate of fire 225 The ray gun vaporizer shoots rays similar to the original but vaporize zombies plus splash damage. It does 1550 damage, good enough to be one hit kill until 15, plus 550 splash damage. Ray Gun: The Evaporator 15/105 450 Once PAPed it becomes the Evaporator. It works much like the or…

Ok, so, basically my idea is that treyarch come up with a complete set of alternate textures for a map, and give us an option on the menu to switch between the traditional textures and a new one. For example, the old texture or traditional one could be of a destroyed area, while the alternate one presents the same map but pristine and undamaged. It's a pretty simple idea, though I don't know how easy it would be to carry out. I personally would love playing on some old maps, fully repaired. Thoughts? Edit: and the textures would in no way alter the layout of the map. It would be like nuketown / nuketown 2025. Exact same layout, just looks different.

Hi CODZ, so as I'm sitting here, I'm pondering, what could they actually do with the next gen consoles, that they cannot to with current gen? There was a rumour (that may well be true, I'm not 100%) that TranZit only had the fog because there wasn't enough ram to give everything a decent texture, and keep the game running smooth. So in future zombies, would we have an equivalent fog-free TranZit? Could the number of zombies per train be increased dramatically? Double perhaps? 48 solo, 96 4 player? What else can they add? Obviously no G spawn errors would be nice. Could they have multiple leaderboards for things separate from rounds? (such as chall…

Anyone like cars? I was in NYC for their annual auto show a week ago and perhaps the best show in years. Many new models or models with drastic makeovers. Anyways, we have posted many ideas and thoughts on what we would like to see. Subsequently, I think it may not be a horrible idea to post things we hope not to see. It's like any relationship, it helps to know what works and what ticks. 1. Better map design-more accurately in terms of game play. Give us the option to camp or train with most maps. No more Die Rise or Buried, where moving around in the map mid-round becomes taxing and deadly. Wall weapon placements were just awful. Better organization on ma…

Shotgun Wunder-Weapon: Thundergun 2.0. KSG WHAT THE ****?? THAT WAS AWESOME!!!! It’s not like the thundergun where everything in front of you “disappears” but it does have an similar effect. It’s a Pump action slug air shot with a devastating aftermath. Chunks of flesh, arms, legs and heads will be taken off in mere seconds in a ripping motion caused by a vicious, pin point, wind tunnel, slug, shot from high speeds. Ammo: 3/12 single slug reload speed. P-A-P: 5/20 reloads all 5 at once. One shot per 1.2 seconds. (Try jumping off high grounds and shooting at the ground.. No fall damage!! Haha)

This is how you release a stand-alone zombie game base on alternate game modes of previous games. New story content. Add more old content, animations, weapons. Update graphics. Support loyalty. Add characters. Let you pick who you want to play as. Customize weapons, loadout, difficulty. Remaster everything. http://store.steampowered.com/app/301640/ I'm going to buy this to tide me over. I never played it because I didn't want the standard sniper gameplay. But this I can get into.

Before reading the Theory You should watch this 14 minute video. Once you finish you will understand the theory a bit more So now that you are have heard the story I want to point out some parallels to our own zombies storyline. We've got an ancient race.....a great evil that resurfaces after eons... and we've got body swapping. These 3 Things can also be found in our own zombies storyline. The connection is even greater now that we have Lovecraft inspired lore thrown into the mix. We are currently seeing a battle between 2 Races. The Apothicans and the Keepers. We still do not know if the Apothican's are the only creatures we…

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 …

Okay, I'm new here, and I didn't see any posts like this, so I apologize in advance if I'm flogging a dead horse. UNKOWN NAME: Similar to the pack-a-punch machine, you place your gun into it, and it randomly transforms your gun into a retro version of your gun, or a futuristic version. Then, you could pack-a-punch the new weapon. This would be cool on the final map, since it could span the entire zombie arsenal through the time period. (Could RANDOMLY change your current wonder weapon into ANY wonder weapon from any map excluding the ray gun, and the jet gun) Nailed Up Cocktail: A person that bought this perk could either repair a window and make it so no more z…

Ok, so after hearing all the radios and confirming that Multiple Universes Exist within our storyline I believe that Outworld Maxis ( The Maxis from the Origins ending cutscene) is currently living inside a house with Eddy and Sam. However this house is the last thing in existence after their universe was destroyed. To ensure the safety of the 2 children Outworld Maxis found a way to Open the Rift and sent the 2 children into another universe. Outworld Maxis apparently stayed behind inside the House to ensure that his plan would work. I am still not quite sure what his plan is but I have a few educated guesses My Guess is Maxis Sent Eddy through the Ri…

And Black ops I think spells F.E.A.R. FEAR THE RISE.... here is the video.. Now for the theories. The spires, Alright lets start this.

This post is probably going to be looong, so please bear with me. Timezone: Same as moon, but time travel is also included (for the easter egg) Where: An Ancient Egyptian pyramid. Zombies: Mummy zombies! Who: This is the interesting part, I have an idea for a totally new group, for now, I'll call them 'GWCC group'. A little bit of background story for them. The group are part of an Allies secret service group. The four characters are: Dr. Gavrel Grunwald- a slightly loopy Jewish scientist. Seems to know far too much about everything(scientific and esoteric) and always has a strange air of deja vu about him. Vincent Walker- a British secret …
