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.

I had an idea a while back, but didn't post it on codz. Does anyone remember Timesplitters 2? For anyone who doesn't, it was a really really good fps, made by part of the team that made Goldeneye for the N64. At the end of each game, you used to get trophies, they were mostly comical, 'cowardly' for someone who kept running away, 'hypochondriac' for someone who would keep picking up health, even if they weren't that injured etc. Then there were normal ones too, 'most deadly' for the person with the most kills and 'most headshots' for the obvious. What if in the next zombies game there was something similar. A selection of awards/trophies/medals for things you…

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 …

I was watching some Skyrim mods a few days ago and an idea popped into my head, and I wanted to share to see what you all though about it. In the video, a very talented player had created an arena, he would pit in game enemies against each other. The winner could carry on to the next round until he eventually met something that killed him, which that winner would go on ect ect. The idea was, what if there was a mode where we could pit say...40 zombies against a Panzer soldat, or Hell hounds VS Jumping Jacks? They system being, all start with full health, none of the monsters are controlled by players. The rounds carry over like they would in a regular zombie…

So lysis being my first post, I've been spitballing all sorts of ideas of what to post. Lately I've been going back playing all of the old zombie maps, WAW and BO, and I've come up with the map idea. We could take our top 6 zombie maps and combine them all into one, and set them into different regions, and have roads connecting them like the way tranzit does. In each region, the weather changes and different special zombies. Say we pick shangri-la, we would face shriekers and napalm zombies.

Hi, I'm Jay. After reading Rissole's pledge to supply ideas for the next game, I have decided to support my friend and spend sometime on what I'm hoping for in the next game. Cinematic effects: If you have been a fan of the Resident Evil series or the Metal Gear series you know exactly what I'm referring to. Certain actions will trigger cinematic effects that give us better perspective of the story or the background. Now imagine JFK getting a ray gun triggering a short clip of him slaughtering zombies with it. Also give us better stories behind each character. Let us explore their secrets and histories through the cinematics. And make one of the main charac…

Saw Jay do it, now it's my turn: 1. The Story So Far - Just where do we go from here?: As I've mentioned many times before, I liked Zombies better when the developing storyline was a lot more cryptic and full of mystery and the only objective seemed to be to find what was truly going on. Between WaW and the first Black Ops, Zombies was more about dark experiments based off real Nazi history and myths, and all the locations had purpose or meaning, they were all connected in some way or another. To me, the storyline should have ended with Samantha, as to me, that always felt like the biggest goal. In Blops, every map kept pointing more and more towards Samantha. I r…

I wanna YOUR dream zombies map. My map would be called space. You spawn at earth to build a spaceship and you fly to the moon and you have to find fuel for the spaceship and you can choose which planet you wanna fly to. PAP will be on mars and each planet has a zombie bboss and a perk and a box location. This map will have all the perks in zombies. What map would you like to be in zombies?

Apparently you can contact Microsoft Support VIA chat and ask them if there is a Call of Duty Zombie Collection coming out for XB1 and they CONFIRM IT giving us a 2014 release year. What the hell is going on ? Do you guys think this is real? Maybe this is suppose to be our "hold over" until 2015 zombies?

I'm wondering what everybody favourite style of gameplay is in the zombies series? There are a lot of different styled maps throughout zombies. Starting with Naacht-right through to Outbreak. I myself do prefer the run and gun style proposed in Mob of the Dead, but I don't believe it would be the same without cherry, acid gat, shield, etc. But I also liked the open feel that maps like shi no numa brought. The swamp was a direct influence on why I enjoyed origins so much. Origins by design was nostalgic. The mud reminded me of the swamp from Shi No Numa, and the laboratory/industrial 20th century feel gave me an atmospheric vibe reminiscent of Ascension. They added new f…

Ever since the DICE Summit I have been convinced that we are getting remastered zombie maps that may have a little extra content in them. By that I mean they may be changed and may have say different weapons. Also they could tell more story that couldn't be told. I have a theory, a very strange one about a map that I think is being hinted at to us. We keep getting bits of information such as Richtofen being erased in the Origins pictures or a new version of an old loading screen. I think this is alluding to the plot in Black Ops 3 and it will be a little different to what we have had before. Also, this kind of rectifies the Origins ending, at least to me, so I hope it doe…

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…

The Call of Duty Zombies story in World at War and Black Ops 1 were mostly inspired by existing conspiracy theories. Lets call a few: The Illuminati, Moonnazi's, antigravity devices and Die Glocke, Agartha, Area 51, Nazi wonder weapons, Kennedy's assassination, the CIA and aliens. Another conspiracy theory you may know is that the Moon landing is fake. Does this have something to do with our story as well? Lets check it out. "I believe that this nation should commit itself to achieving the goal, before this decade is out, of landing a man on the moon and returning him safely to the Earth. (JFK, 1961)" - Moon level description So, I believe that Bro…

I have been thinking about something. There are many silhouettes without names, and faces without names. People have come up with many theories about these people, but there is one that I have not seen. What if they're all the same person. The silhouettes on the Nacht Der Untoten loading screen would be the first time that they showed up. This makes them the FIRST character introduced. Even before the Fab Four. A certain piece of evidence that they are the same person is the fact that they are connected with the Fab Four in Shi No Numa, and again with the portraits in Kino Der Toten. In fact, they're really all over the place. They'r…

(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…

Though known about since Ascension, Richtofen's diary is an item that has taken up somewhat of an importance in the story as of late. Explicitly mentioned for the first time in years by The Timeline, we learn that it was the purpose for journeying to the Rising Sun Facility, in game being represented as the infamous Laughing Book (Keep this in mind), specifically that after reading it, Richtofen began to "form his plan". The issue is, Richtofen starts at Der Riese, awakening his test subjects; they then travel to Manchuria, only to return to Breslau with only the diary in hand - so what makes it so important? After teleporting from Der Riese, the diary is drop…

I was thinking and maybe the Death Machine will appear in the box. It may have like 200 in clip, 400 in reserve, and it takes 10 seconds to reload. The power would be dumbed down quite a bit, though. Would be Pack-A-Punched to The Holocaust (LOL JK just can't think of a name ATM)

Just some ideas I came up with if we were to fight Nazi again... Foo Fighters - Special Grenade - If you throw one, three circular, glowing objects will follow you for 30 seconds. These triple your firepower by firing as you do with the same bullets. http://files.abovetopsecret.com/images/ ... f29092.jpg Pack-A-Punch - Nazi UFO - As a work of conspiracy theories and fiction, some people know of these Nazi UFO's. In a large outside area, you can enter the small UFO with a Pack-A-Punch inside it. For 60 seconds, you are in the air, and then you land in another spot in the map where you must get out or you will be cornered by zombies. Once you're out, the UFO tak…

So I was bored and disconnected from xbox live for some stupid reason, so I went to berlin wall to look around and stuff. About 3 minutes in I figured i could look for some easter eggs. I was walking around when i passed some clocks. I checked the time(i do this everytime for some reason, maybe because of five) and it said 5:20. I looked on my phone AND clock and they both said around 8. I began to ponder what it could be, when the idea hit me. Perhaps Second Strike(lol i dont know what to call it) will launch on May 20, and be based off of Berlin Wall? I guess in time we'll see. Please leave feedback

This is my first theory, and I'm not sure if this has been said before. What if, Tranzit's NDU isn't just there to bring the map to somehow fit in the story, but it's for us to foreshadow that the next 3-4 DLCs zombies maps will have the original four maps somewhere in them?

they should really put in an option to make clans in zombies cuz im tired of getting put in games with random newbs without mic you should be able to add people who you know are good players to your clan, so whenever i start up bo2 i get to inmediatley see wich clanmembers are online and up for a good game of zombieslaying. maybe even allowing a short description of your function in the team: -players like me who get a thrill out of reviving often and in order to do so will get all equipment to do it more easily like krauss -players who get thrill from highest kills/headshot wich is also necessary if you want to go through rounds first -explosive experts w…

If you're anything like me, you love achievements. No matter how big or how small, you love the little ping that pops up when you've done something neat. In fact, I love them so much to the point where I have maxed out every CoD game since Call of Duty 4. Now, I ask you all, do you think Black Ops II will have 2000G? The first game to hit that milestone was Gears of War 3, with each of its four DLC packs adding 250G. WaW only got to 1500G with the last two map packs, Black Ops went to 1700G with all four of its, and MW3 went to the oddly numbered 1610G. I believe BOII will hit 2000G simply because each of its DLC packs will (or should) contain 250G a pop, if …

Hi, So everyone has been talking about how Paris was a big map Treyarch has been wanting to make and such. People say it'll be in the next DLC, but I think it will be in the final DLC. I get this from the fact that we have been using towers like pylons and radio towers in our recent Easter Eggs. Well when you look at the Eiffel Tower, what do you see? I see one big booty Spire that Richtofen and Maxis would kill for. I chose that picture because the lights at the top remind me of ToB. Why not make that the grand ending for the Easter Eggs? Put your thoughts/counter theories below!
