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.

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…

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.

What happens if you do post something that is so amazing that it's put in the game? And what if you have 1,000s of those ideas?

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…

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.

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…

Im sure most if not all of you have seen the trailer for Origins, which is presumed to be the name of the newest map coming either in late august or early September. It stands to reason with the years from the "Letters from the Field" and the images shown, that this map will take place in the WW1 era. A post I have read suggests that we will use machinery, weapons, and more from the era. Now, maybe I am looking way to deep into the trailer, but I have a few questions that I would like answered: When it shows the image of Takeo's katana, there is a box with a switch on the top. What does it do? What are your thoughts as to the purpose of this device? There i…

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

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…

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…

1. Hellion. This Zombie looks like a normal zombie, but is on fire. He spawns one his own wave every 5 rounds. Every 2 Hellion rounds another spawns(similar to panzer soldat). The Hellion is As fast as the Panzer, and has one attack, melee. It does 100 points of damage instantly downing a player with out jug. This boss gets slower and weaker the more you shoot it. This boss has 700 health points. 2. Hitler. Well, it is nazi zombies. Hitler has a ranged attack, pistol. He is as fast as a player walking, he has 1000 points of health. On later rounds, he gets a carbine instead of a pistol, doing more damage. His pistol does 50 and his carbine does 75. Any ideas of b…

The Cylce Theory This is my first REAL theory. No jokes. Ok so here is what I believe the timeline of our story takes place Nachtà Verrukt à Shi No Numa à Der Riese à Kino Der Toten à Shangri-la à Ascension/Five à Call of the Deadà Moon/Nuketown à The point of no return After Kino I think they were accidentally teleported to Sangri-la. Hence the reason as to why their clothes are normal in Shang and not ripped. After this They take a seperate mode of transportation to ascension. The flying monkeys that can be seen in the sky. This is how they get to Ascension. After Ascension the Gerch device sends them to The future which is why we end up in COTD…

I have no idea if this has been posted before, if so, MODS you can delete it or whatever. Anyways, I predict the last DLC will not only come with another Zombies map with an EE, but I also think the other older maps will receive small survival/grief/turned maps too. Why, you ask? Well, I like to think of the different map selection things as "hubs". Such as, Green Run contains Bus Depot, Town, Farm, Diner, and the map as a whole. I'd like to think that "hub" is already finished. However, the Nevada "hub" looks as if it could use a few more small maps there. And I'm pretty sure Die Rise will either split into single maps, or have maybe like one skyscraper as a surviv…

I started typing this with a kernel of an idea and the ideas kept coming so ignore the sense of rambling and try to read through it xD My theory is that this new map will take place in none other than Peshawar, Pakistan. The location of the Multiplayer Map Overflow, and the Campaign mission "Fallen Angel". This location will become a "triple crown" location in the same way as Ascension (USSR) and Verrückt (Berlin) were with being both Campaign and Multiplayer maps. Originally, overflow was supposed to have flooded streets, but the idea was scrapped. My theory is that they will implement the flooded streets back into the map as well as have it be a dynamic …

Hey PIGoPRIOR here with some ideas for the leaderboards and other stat tracking utilities (Elite, career stats, etc.). Add your K/D Add average round Still have the amount of downs and deaths shown, but take away your position in the world, as that is impossible to climb up. Useless. Add all guns with the amount of kills gotten (kills and revives for Ballistic Knife) along with accuracy. For maps, show many times you have played it, how many hours you've payed it, and your highest round on it. Add windows boarded Drops gotten (also how many youve gotten of each one) Perks gotten (also how many youve gotten of each one) Shows W/L for Grief and Turned …

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 …

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!

After Great Leap Forward, I feel it's fairly evident that the last site will be a tower, like the pylon in Green Run and the radio tower in GLF. But what happens after this? I ask this because next DLC drop it's going to be likely we're activating a third tower, but then what? After the next DLC, we have two more left for Black Ops 2. Green Run -> GLF -> DLC 2 -> DLC 3 -> DLC 4 So what are your guys' thoughts? What will we be doing with DLC 3 and 4?

Hey guys PIGoPRIOR here, and I thought of some ideas for a Hard mode for zombies. Here the zombies on round 1 would start out with about round 10 health, which increases much faster than in Original, having round 5 zombies running around with HP usually found on round 25 or so. Zombies on Hard will be running from the get go and eventually (round 10) they'd be running faster than you do, making training useless. This would force you to use more creative methods to deal with your horde. So instead of the usual 6 walking zombies you're graced with normally on round 1, you're dealing with 12 runners with around 1150 health who'll eventually start catching up to yo…

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…

Hi guys. I thinks that the next map can be in Russia. Indeed, the three maps "Tranzit / Die Rise / Buried" form a triangle (3 points, it's logical ). According to the current locations, I determined the center of the triangle and we are in Russia ! I used "Google Earth" for a spherical map of world and not for a planisphere because in the menu, we manipulate a globe. I made a video : W549kEVEUtc It's a idea that came to me with a old game on Gamecube, The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker. When we found the three pearls and that we put them in their locations, the Tower of the Gods rise from the seafloor. bSd82OB_wLk …

To preface, I'm working on a video series about the Aether Story - and in it I intend to dedicate some time investigating the oddities and unused material of each map. So I'm hoping with this thread we can start a discussion and learn about the things that never were, collecting the discussion together in one place. If we were to talk about how Shangri-La could have been on Mars, let's discuss why that could be and what it would mean for the story. Or if we talked about Moon being Paris, how would it diverge from the story we know?

In my mind we all know how the undead came to be, Which is Der Riese or The Giant Facility. Dr Ludvig Maxis was working on super soldier and teleportation experiments with a once sane man by the name of Dr. Edward Richtofen. Anyways, on to my theory. I will even include the awesome theory I heard about a cross dimensional rift that was happening after the teleporter's overload with the WonderWaffle Die Glocke (The Bell) 2, and whoever posted why guns are important to the story, I support it. Anyways, my theory supporting this is after so much time travel a hole was ripped in the space time continuum and all years (except 1932-1934 due to this happening before the telepor…
