Research & Development
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.

Hey guys, Im new to the COD forums so if this is in the wrong place or something is wrong I'm sorry or this has already been said. I wanted to see what everyone's opinion on Alcatraz is. What the new Celebrity Mobsters you think will be in Alcatraz. Looking at Mobsters Im sure it is safe to say that Al Capone will be one of them. He was one of the main criminals at Alcatraz during the Prohibition. Also the Lighthouse, if the same story goes this will end up being the next Easter egg. Also if the case is that Zombies has gone back to 1930-1940s doesn't that mean time travel has been fully confirmed? Then at the end of Die Rise there was the Door slamming shut, obvis…

So I was thinking the other day as cool as it would be to have ALL available maps into one central game, I certainly do not feel like purchasing the same old maps for like the 5th time now.... So, what if instead, they introduced the classic maps (WaW to Blops), Blops 2 style? Obviously it would mainly be just for fun, but I think it would be pretty cool if they did a Tranzit style mash up for a WaW and Blops "map pack". Have the "Main" mode where you can relive all of the zombies maps in one go by having the ability to teleport between sections of each of the maps, or, play it the way you remember it and play each map individually on Survival. Hell, spice things up and s…

Im just gonna make this short. In Green Run's easter egg you power up a spire either for A.Richthofen OR B.Maxis. The topic of this thread is what leis ahead.What are these spires for,and what do we do once we 'charge' all of them?Are we going to replenish the earth or make it worse?Are we gonna run around while these two bark orders at us or are we just gonna go and kill them both?What will the final map be?Paris,Hell,Atlantis,the Aether,Agartha,Kino der Toten 2025?Will Russman betray us?Will Takeo destroy all remnants of Group 935?Will Marlton actually trade that S12 for all the tea in China? Discuss all those questions and more here.

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 …

I'm sick of people thinking theyre good because they can run around in a circle for 10 mins and use any pap heavy machine gun and take out 500 zombies. Make them come at you from different angles, not in damn single file line. The zombies need.to be able to strategize atleast somewhat. Also drop tombstone, seriously, I just don't get the point of being rewarded with your shit back AFTER you die. This is supposed to be a survival game, not a slasher!

Warning:This is a long one… A very big thanks to MixMasterNut & AlphaSnake for posting some awesome topics on this subject which have given me so many ideas such as this & things to research. Cheers! This might not be the next map & I may be completely off here, but I’m confident we are going to Vietnam at some point.

Ah, Tunguska. Just saying that brings back the nostalgia. Finding those boxes in Shi No Numa labelled "Tunguska" was strange...in a good kind of way. For those of you who don't know, the Tunguska event "was an enormously powerful explosion that occurred near the Podkamennaya Tunguska River in what is now Krasnoyarsk Krai, Russia, at about 07:14 KRAT (00:14 UT) on June 30 [O.S. June 17], 1908." according to Wikipedia. It is largely believed to have been caused by a meteorite impact of some sort (an air burst). A meteorite, huh? What sort of special element can we obtain from meteorites in the CoD Zombies universe? The Tunguska Event has been speculated and theori…

I had an basic idea for a new zombie game mode that could be added to the next DLC map pack. Here it is. The game mode would be called Horde. A new map could be made just for this game mode would be relatively open. There would be only a select few perks near where you spawn including Mule Kick, Double Tap and Speed Cola, the mystery box and PaP will also be there and a few wall weapons. Hundreds of level 1 zombies but most of them run come from all directions. The goal of the game is to last as long as you can and not let a certain amount of zombies in a certain area that your in. You could play it against other teams similar to grief, co-op or solo. All stats would…

Ok this is a really general idea, but an idea nonetheless that occurred to me as highly possible. Treyarch are definitely receiving a lot of pressure from fans to bring back the original four. Another thing that might be providing some kind of pressure from fans is the redundancy of the Easter eggs in black ops 2 so far. We can assume that there are 3 towers to power up. (trichotomous obtuse scalene anyone?) and so far Easter-egg-wise that is all we've been doing. Do we REALLY want to do the same old easter egg on the next map too? I sure don't. And here is my modest proposal. I say let's kill 2 birds with 1 stone. Firstly, this idea revolves around the id…

I haven't seen anyone bring this up yet. A few weeks ago our cryptic friend Jimmy tweeted this: This is pretty obvious what he is saying here; in the next map pack, and old perk (such as PHD flopper) will be replacing a perk that we have right now (such as mule kick). What perk would you want to revive, and what perk do you want to save? We obviously need the four base perks: Jug, Speed, Quick revive, and Double tap (which wasn't in Ascension). I think that mule kick will go, and we get deadshot or flopper back. What do you think? Alternate theory: this one is a little less obvious. We all know that the zombies team has been experimenting with dow…

lately i had the idea from the die rise bottom right corner loading screen that we might get a volcanic - volcanic island map. The reason is is that the next page seems to be brown with dark colors, we might see the lava coming back from tranzit, probably a "paradise side of the map" where the volcanos eruption has not affected the island and a "erupted " side where theres lava and all that stuff. i think its probable. sldo almost everyone has always wanted a paris map so honestly paris seems like the best bet in a new map but hey one can dream of a volcanic island map

I don't know about most of you but i would it if we could get a Zombies map with a storm in the background or even when a boss round comes it starts to rain to let the player(s) know that the boss round has started and it would also be nice if they brought in new traps like in Black Ops One or just bring back the old ones i don't really care wouldn't that be nice. Leave a comment and tell me what you guys think. :)

So I had a dream, sort of jumbled, but at least I got an idea of a map. It was like a mix of a Hospital, Factory, and Science Lab. I just loved the dream, and it was really cool. I remember the Easter Egg achievement description, it was something like,"Advance to choose one of the three leaders" or something like that. Strangely enough, the vril weren't in my dream too much. However, Samantha was. I remember there being a rusty bridge in the factory, with chasms/abysses on either side. I remember you had to actually pick up a navcard and insert it into a thing that looked like the machine in the campaign mission "Celerium", except the machine was rusty too except for the …

So today I was just replaying the campaign mission Odysseus when I came across a few things that may be hints that it could become a future zombie map. I know from the Black Ops campaign that they do drop the smallest hints in the campaign about zombies DLC, like the mission Ascension resembles. You could look off in the distance and see a Cosmodrome launching a rocket and had the Mystery Box light shooting into the sky towards the beginning of the mission. Later in it, some scientists are burned by the gasoline of the rocket you destroy, and get burnt. They end up very closely resembling the zombies we saw at Ascension. Everything I'm about to put up is found in two cons…

Didn't put too much thought into it, but at the end of Ascension Richtofen says something along the lines of " fascinating, a dimensional rift!" and in the cutscene for Die Rise when Samuel is talking to Richtofen he says "What? What do you mean mend the rift?" Nothing too serious but just a quick thought, could it be a possibility?

As we all know Die Rise has brought us a brand new and wonderful perk known as Who's Who. I believe this perk has more to do with the next map than we know. Who's Who enables our characters, once they go down to be revived in a saturated, watery dimension. We are then able to revive our real self. The reason I say watery is because our screen looks as if we are constantly underwater, waves and bubbles distort our screen as well as the saturated colors. Take a look at this image here to see what I am talking about. Now then to the perk machine itself. Notice how it resembles a deep sea diver suit. Bluish green topped with a glass head-bowl for air. Inside o…

From what I've gathered about the next map, meaning the upcoming second map pack for Black Ops 2, the next map is going to be set in Germany, which makes sense since that's where all of it really started, and is going to combine the verticality of skyscrapers like in Die Rise with the expanse of a free roam like TranZit with different sections and stuff. Makes sense as the third installment of the saga for this game. But my question is where do we go from there? Like, we've already went everywhere. We've been to Siberia, Shangri-La, the Moon, I mean where else do you go that can keep me saying "Wow, what are they gunna think of next?" Cause to be honest I'm not particular…

Hi, So recently, I've been thinking about how everyone is predicting the future zombies maps directly off of hints and possible storyline intentions. But I've come to the realization that there's one more simple way to figure some of this out; New Gamemodes! But before I can get into that, we need to do a brief history lesson. (We all know it, just bare with me. I'm trying to make a point.) History Class It's boring. Our original map that came with Black Ops 2 wasn't your typical survival map. It was massive. So massive, that they had to create a way for us to get around, thus, the birth of the Bus Driver. Now, in light of this not being just a simple buy …

Hey guys, just a theory on what I hope will be included in the next DLC or future maps. Okay, I am a firm believer in buying perks. They are quite useful and save your butt in many situations. I would like to see a buildable perk machine. Imagine if you had to choose between PhD Flopper and Jugg (or any other perk thats up to 3arc)? Now this would be only one perk machine but two possible outcomes. Parts: Base. Found by the table. Same for both machines. Power Supply: Maybe a wire? Found in a room with a hole in the ceiling. Jump to pick up. Same for both machines. Actual Machine. Now there is no location for this because I do not know which perks would be wh…
