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.

*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? …

This is from my recent post on blackops2forum.com Hope you guys like it! Okay, guys. I know some of you will recognize a previous thread I made entitled "New Map Theory: Terminus". Well first off, no this is not the same thing. In fact, is is merely an imagining of what I think it will be like if it is indeed made. Second off, I'm not doing this for views. I'm mainly doing it to get the ideas out in a relevant way. I'm posting it in a seperate thread because I feel that the original one was mainly for speculation, and this is an imagining. Here's the link to the original: http://www.blackops2forum.com/showthread.php?t=16385 Well, let's go. *Beginning Cinema…

I noticed it looks a bit off. I drew lines connecting ends to end of the text and pictures. They are even paralleled correctly http://i.imgur.com/irF2qy0.png Its the best i could do but, still even without the green lines it just looks way off. I also took the line below induction and it doesn't line up with the lines in the map. http://i.imgur.com/ZaPudSV.png Pro. made posters would not have mistakes like this

so I was really unsure as whether to post this or not. we have a future zombies section. some possible information towards a future zombies map has made itself apparent. perhaps this is all an exercise in whether we should have a future zombies section. regardless, I'm going to present the information I've seen. I love this site, and if this in anyway viewed as harming the sites integrity please take care of it. DEAD HIGH Possible Significance: 1. the overall color theme is blue. including the brackets around the map name. this could be an allusion to water, and thus - MAYBE - an Atlantis map. 2. there is a map called "water" - vague …

Cheesy name i know but check out this map. Summary: The undead have risen again from the medivel graves near an abandonded castle. Watch your back as you travel through this vast castle with its winding staircases and secret passages. Dont stay anywhere too long or something might just come a thumpin'..... Atmosphere: It is dark outside and there is little light. There is a huge candelabra in the first room and is one of main sources of light. The darkest places are as dark as the Tranzit foggy areas and the brightest is like Kino. Gloomy atmosphere. Creepy like Verrukt. Suddenly on round 5, the candelabra crashes to the floor, revealing a secret passage. Howev…

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…

Hi all, I don't mean to have this come around as a rage thread for me, but can someone please give me some serious reasons why Atlantis would be an upcoming zombie map? Everytime I see a post on how Atlantis is coming, I think it's ridiculous for a few reasons. 1) What hints have we been receiving to show why it would be a new map? 2) If our tower trend continues, what kind of a tower would be at the bottom of the ocean? 3) With all the water in Green Run becoming lava, what will have become of the ocean? I just hope to gather enough evidence/get rid of fake evidence to get a serious idea on if there's a real possibility of it being a map.

These two scientist have been with us sense moon, and I beleive we should investigate them furthur... Groph: I beleive he has something to offer from his research with the mpd and vrill... That and richtofen's quote from moon: "I will never understand groph's obsession with American women... All they DO is play games! :evil: " Why do I think this is important? Because of misty, she is an american woman! (Murica!) If groph is anything close to richtofen, he may have run some test on subjects too... In the past of course, long before misty was born... But if one of his subjects were carrying some kind of lethal or empowering device or element or body fluid…

I usually never speculate as to what could be coming next this early, is because, well its so unpredictable at times, but I've had this thought bouncing in my head for some time now and I figured I might as well mention it before it becomes A: irrelevant, or B: right? So I've read a few threads based on the idea of Atlantis and I thought it was a pretty neat story arc that would be interesting to discover. I thought how much harder would that be then die rise. And I have been thinking to myself how much Die Rise reminds me of Kowloon; the MP map from Map Pack 1. I tried to remember if there were any easter eggs or little shout outs to zombies in Kowloon. I…

I, for one, want a shifting map. And for those who don't know what I mean... I want a map that is constantly changing. This would be very difficult to pull off, but I could definitely see it happening in the future. For instance, It would be very interesting to have an undamaged part of the world, and the new crew would be sent there. So when you start off, the area would be undamaged, and the longer you survive, the more damage is caused to the area, and so: The map would only stay the same for 4-5 rounds at a time. I can see how people would immediately say this would be impossible due to the fact of perks, weapons, and buildables being placed in …

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. ;)

To start off I'd like to say this post has been deleated twice now due to my iPad's safari crashing, so boo hoo to anyone that has any beef to my grammar... Just deal with it... It's plenty readable... ______________________ I've been meaning to ask this sense tranzit, but why is it when maxis communicates there's always that fading beeping noise? Sure it could be the fact he's using an intercom... But that doesn't make much sense at the pylon when he speaks to you, as there are no speakers.... That lead me to think "What kind of technology would be needed to send messages from the moon to earth?" This lead me to research group 601, And other radio wave related re…

I was playing Die Rise with the voice volume down and the SFX volume down because the song just started when I noticed one line "In vitro planet earth" it made me think, is something living in the earth that we don't know about? Think about Agharta, basically it has to do with a advanced race of beings living in the earth. Maybe the next map will lead us to one of the entrances to Agharta. Or maybe to the hollow earth itself. 8-)

When are the guys at Treyarch going to come out with a Comic Book-Novel of WaW/BO1? Just a full story line of what we know with visuals. That would be a huge money maker idea with 100% chance of people preordering/lines.

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!

ALIENS! (a gamer can dream right?) Imagine aliens spawning in from ufos, possibilities are endless. I know this isn't a "future zombie" thing... Anyways I'd love to see Treyarch do this. You can tell they have some interest in the "supernatural" or just aliens. Hangar 18 comes to mind from bo1. They could get bored with zombies after a while, maybe not. This would be a awesome route to explore.

I just had a quick suggestion for the Zombie storyline. BE warned, this is a conglomeration of a couple of posts I made on the official COD forums, they are old. Sorry for any confusion! I really hope this is the section that Treyarch reads for suggestions I was wondering if thet could add a new playable character to the zombie storyline. The whole Nazi Occultist aspect of the story has a whole “Indiana Jones” feel to it and I was wondering if you could add an archeologist/historian character to the story. BUT, this is not simply for fan boy purposes, I have legitimates reasons: 1. It’s a perfect homage- The entire zombie storyline revolves around Nazi Occu…

Make your imaginations grow wild with something new that hasn't been done yet. Put your creations in the box and think outside of it. We've had swamps, indoors, outdoors, snow, jungle, space and lava. We've had small, medium, large and tall. We've had a wide range of boss waves. And crazy-intricate Easter Eggs with clues of a story that we as a community have found through the passing years. Rules and Guidelines: No criticisms! It's a huge brain storming process to create the perfect map. Let's keep it clean. No need for trash talk. So, Name of Map: Its back story: Indoors/Outdoors/Both environment: (Rain, Sleet, Snow, Lava) Perks plus 1 new: New …

(Frag and Semtex grenades, claymores, C4, emp, bouncing bettys and shock charges. Also, this game type should have a mini map. Not so you see the zombies on the map, but your team mates and nearby buildings and/or structures. If you want this game type, …
