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.

I was thinking a lot about all the different maps and I realised that die rise and tranzit have something in common... they both have tower sort of things. So if you think about it the next map is probably going to have a tower in. And the one place I can think of at the top of my head is Paris. Also treyarch did say something about Paris and in both tranzit and die rise the towers light up or have electricity passing through them; the Eiffel tower can also be lit up. I dont know if that makes any sense but if it does then it would be great if you guys could give me some feedback. ;)

Where haven't we been? We've been from a frozen outpost, to a chinease high rise, to the flipping moon... Each place just as impressive as the last... But where do we go now? We never seem to visit the same type of area twice, meaning we've only been to one swamp, one factory, one theater, ect.. So where else do we have to go? So I made this list of possible areas to travel! 1: Paris- ive seen how much you guys want Paris to happen, and it very well may be in the next map! Whose stopping it? 2:Desert: We've never had a sand area, I REALLY want to see some mummy zombies and pyramid Easter eggs! 3:Above the ocean: On say a cruise ship, a REALLY…

*INDUCTION COULD STILL BE FAKE DUE TO THE FACT A GHOST RECON SOLDIER IS IN IT* Huge goddamn thanks to MrRoflWaffles (Admin) for this. MrRoflWaffles has found out Induction might be true..It seems more legit that orientation. Black ops 2 dlcs might spell R.I.S.E (Revolution),(Induction),(Unknown),(Unknown). 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. So as we know Treyarch copies Nicola Tesla creations (Thanks Pinnaz) We know he has two towers that transmits wireless power. But was demolished in 1917. Why is there one in Paris? What are they using them for? …

Future games should have it so I can do the easteregg with either just me or 1 or 2 others. I don't like it where I need all 4. I also don't want it to save the easter egg steps. I completed tranzit and I couldn't help anyone else with the easter egg because i completed it already.

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 …

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 …

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…

It would be EPIC! if all the maps from Black Ops returned in the last DLC plus a new map. Imagine those 10 maps coming back along with the maps we'll have on Black Ops II. That would be completely insane! Even better is what if they brought the old weapons from World at War and Black Ops back? Can you imagine having the MG42, RPK and LSAT. How about multiple Wonder Weapons like the Sliquifier, Wunderwaffe and Baby Gun (not the technical name, I know)? How about having Monkey Bombs and the Gersch Device on the same map? You have to admit, a customizable box with these features would be sweet on EVERY SINGLE MAP would be "sweet dude". To further the dreams, how about we cho…

Not much really to say or speculate about guys , but for once Mr. JimmyZ has changed his cryptic twitter description and is pointing us in the direction of earths core . it takes us here - http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slab_(geology)#mw-mf-search it goes into little detail about the geology term Slab -In geology, a slab is the portion of a tectonic plate that is being subducted.[1] Slabs constitute an important part of the global plate tectonic system. They drive plate tectonics both by pulling along the lithosphere to which they are attached in a processes known as slab pull and by inciting currents in the mantle (slab suction).[2] They cause volcanism …

With the latest news about the so-called-official dlc "Vengeance" there we a few things I would like to point out: A: It's supper likely we will have this, but it has NOT yet been confirmed it could be a super successfull troll, it wouldn't be hard to print out one's own fake dlc poster and put it in a display case and send the pic to many people, as there is only one picture I can find of this dlc poster.... Until I see more or until trayarch announces it (which will be likely today or thursday) I'm not buying this... Moving on, if this dlc poster turns out to be correct here are some thoughts: A: Why on gods earth has no one talked about the zombie in t…

who feels a little surprised with the easter egg "mined games" in Buried? Completing either richrofen or maxis' side, both reveal shockers! and more suspense for the final DLC! On maxis' side, he says "regretfully, i must inform you that the earth, nor its people will survive" and "FINALLY, I CAN BE REUINITED WITH MY DAUGHTER SAMANTHA THEN I WILL OPEN THE GATES OF ARGARTHA" after this, the zombies eyes turn orange as maxis is in control and after all the help we gave him, he turned out to be evil and manages to put richotfens soul into a zombie! Richtofens side however, Maxis gets overpowered by richtofen and manages to go into samuels body leaving his eyes blue and …

"Face your darkest fears as you fight for your life in the darkest shadow" -description of dunkelsten schatten This map would have NO doors or debris and would feture ALL perks. You would spawn in a dark circular room with no barricades as zombies would climb down the walls. In the middle of the room would be a teleporter. Quick Revive would be on one side while a box spawn would be on the other side. After 1 round the teleporter would start flashing and all the characters must get on the teleporter they would be left behind. The players on the teleporter will teleport to a location from random map. The location that was telported to will have regular gameplay. I…

ntroduction: Welcome! I would like to introduce you to an idea of mine, that would possibly become the biggest, and perhaps, best zombies map of all time. Here's a quick summary of the setting: You start in current times. On the Moon. In Griffin Station. Don't worry however, you (the O4, including a physcotic Samantha/Richtofen) won't be mainly concerned with the Moon. Anyways, you can play in parts of a non-destroyed Griffin Station, as well as a few new areas on the Moon. Including the center of it. But I'm far away from a host of other locations. Allow me to continue. You can use the teleporter to go to a few areas that can be maps on their own. One of these, is a no…

I have a discovered somehting that may relate to the DLC4 loading screen . Here it goes! ^^ Okay so first on Mob of The Dead we se the loading screen with a bunch of drawings and a lot of stuff, but to the right is what looks to be a newspaper. Now, if you look behind shangri la loading screen theres like a magazine, at first glance it looks like moon but when you see the loading screen of moon, the other magazine behind shangri la stays there! Maybe you can prove me wrong but i havent seen that in any other map.

Hello! The recent 'Origins' trailer given to us by Treyarch have given everyone a lot to think about, one question that is arising in us all is "Why are we going back to the O4' origins?", some say that this map is going to be a prequel to something else after Moon, others say Richtofen is going back in time to make sure he gains FULL power of the zombies, well I would love to chuck another theory into the main scheme of things, some people have already mentioned this idea within other threads but here is a full round explanation of what I think will/has happened, so give it a read and let me know what you think! We're all stuck in a cycle! People may n…

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…

Hi CoDz! I was just wondering what weapons from CoD Ghosts you would like to see implemented into the next zombies installment? I ask because of the few that were brought back in BO2, namely the Barrett, RPD and MP5 (I know it was in BO1 zombies, but it was the MW3 model). A few of the weapons I would like to see in zombies from Ghosts: Chainsaw: This hip-fire only weapon is super fun to use in Extinction, and I feel it would be twice as fun in zombies (since, you know, its zombies). Pack-a-Punched, I could see this gun have a clip size of 100, with a reserve of 200, along with rapid fire and the retaining of its assault rifle mobility. Could be called the Shackleslicer…

A little disappointed this sub forum isn't seeing as much traffic as it could. We know Treyarch look to forums for ideas. If you did not like BO2 Zombies, than post your ideas and threads on what you think should improve and stuff in this sub-forum. Now is the perfect time to post these ideas, they will be developing and forming ideas. You're ideas can help create and form the zombies experience you want. You have to voice your opinion to have it heard, because it's not just going to magically appear in game what you want if you keep quiet. I guess that's all I wanted to say. Just post your ideas and feedback if you want them heard, constructively of course. And yea…

I have a few ideas I'd like to see in future zombies: Hardline soda: When bought, you can see the box outline anywhere on the map and the gives the player the option when a weapon is rolled to tap X and reroll for 450. Costs 3000 Spy eye wine: Get a minimap in the top right of screen. This allows you to see the Zombies locations, zombie counter, and players locations. Costs: 4000 Hercules Cola: When bought, player makes a punching animation. This upgraded the knife to a punch, similar to that if Origins. This punch will summon lightning through zombies. One hit until round 20. Costs 9000 Burly Brew: This perk will allow the player to pick up crawlers…

So I got thinking after a couple rounds of zombies the other day and and thought of an idea. And as I'm typing this I realized it could either be a simple great idea, or I'll just sound completely retarded because it already exists and I'm out of the loop, OR someone beat me to it. But ya know what? Yolo. One of the things I still to this day don't know how some of you do it is reach these ridiculously high rounds. Not because I can't reach them myself, but because after mid-twenties or so, I've got just about everything you could need to survive and find myself dying of boredom. There's nothing else to do! Come next zombies season, I actually think there's a…

Hello....and welcome Back.....Today I would like to talk about a key component to Zombies which was first introduced to the Game on Verrukt. This Key element is the Power switch. The Power has remained relatively the same since verrukt until Shangri-la. In shangri-la there were 2 switches and instead of just powering up the map it showed us a unique way the power was provided. By taking energy from Water. Although the result was the same we still got to see something new. Then in Tranzit we had a new quest to turn on the Power. We had to build the Power switch. This is a simple task that takes a minute or so to complete if you know where the parts are. You c…
