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.

Hello, as mentionned in the title, I saw more than one video on youtube showing the likely possibility to get a zombies game from Treyarch in 2015, so I have thought about the things that annoyed me from black ops 1 and black ops 2 zombies which should get fixed or improved in the next game if there is going to be one and I came with a list of things that should be there in 2015 zombies. Feel free to add your ideas as well as a brief explaination. Important things 1. Having solo versions of all the major easter eggs. This one I completly don't understand. Why did Treyarch only put solo versions of easter eggs on certain maps (where they are the less rewarding) and…

Based on mockings post, i'm rolling with it. You get the jist of it, list new buildable ideas along with their functions in detail and their ingredients. Here are a few of mine Paint Turret Parts: -Easel -Pallet Board -Machine Gun -Wiring Its a large easel, with paint splotches on the paper, and the gun shoots essentially paint balls which damage and add a random color splat to the zombie. Must be powered, but to be powered you can either hook them up to a power outlet along the wall, or use a turbine. Sliqui-Geyser Parts: -Fire Extinguisher -Purple Goo in a package -Hose -Cinder block A large Fire Hydrant tied sideways to a cinder block. Bein…

perhaps you should be able to choose a special class and the box spits out weapons to match the class, and they have a special skill for each class (not like extinction though)

This seems to be a big thing now appearing in Ghost's and AW's multiplayer, and what I want to know is, does everyone want it to continue over into zombies? Rules: -The appearance of the player does not actually effect the player's gameplay (Other then rumors) -The custom character is only available in non-story modes. For example: We would still see russman, stu, marelton and misty in buried, but borough would consist of our own creations. -Some customs are earn-able others are purchasable. Because as far as I see it, no one has yet to oppose to this idea, and with the way IFW and SH have gone about doing things, I don't see why zombies would be differe…

I honestly would like this. I was sorta dissapointed during BO2's season that I didn't get the micro-packs for free, and this would be a good solution. There would be: 1. "Normal" Season Pass: All DLC Map packs, as well as a few bonuses (ie. Nuketown, exclusive calling card) - $60 2. Premium Season Pass: All DLC Map Packs, all micro-dlc, and the few bonuses, plus an exclusive something - $85-ish, maybe a bit more. In my opinion, this would be good for people like me who just want to have everything. People who only care about map packs still have their way, and people who like it all get to enjoy it all. Also, a bit off-topic, but how come we never get campaign…

Not gonna get into as much detail as I have in my head and not sure if it has been mentioned already but here is some of my ideas: DISCLAIMER: I have been playing for a long time, since the beginning, every single map. I have my favorites just like everyone else. I don't want to make zombies super easy so it's possible to hit triple digit rounds before bed nor do I want over powered players or weapons so even round 90 zombies bow to my awesomeness, I believe skill is what makes this game fun. I understand that this topic has probably been discussed in multiple threads before but here is a new one. The others have either been abandoned, turned into an internet tough gu…

I'm talking specifically about zombies (duh) because i have mentioned it but never made a thread. So people want character customization, and one of the very few things ghosts did right was character customization. It wasn't originally in extinction, but those smarties patched it in. But zombies is so much more story based so making up a character wouldnt work as well... On classic maps. But think about all the potential for survival, grief, and other game modes added. You could choose gender, hair and such but here comes the fun part, earn money. The could totally call it Z (with lines through it, like bonus points/blood money) and you would earn it by completing …

Hi, it's the boring guy here. I'm not really a creative or fantasizing guy, but I'm sharing my ray gun ideas. I thought to myself, if one of my ray gun ideas make it into the next game, I would score big time with my son and his friends. These are Ray Gun templates, each with special animations when zombies die. Ray Gun: The Vaporizer Clip/ Mag 10/90 Rate of fire 225 The ray gun vaporizer shoots rays similar to the original but vaporize zombies plus splash damage. It does 1550 damage, good enough to be one hit kill until 15, plus 550 splash damage. Ray Gun: The Evaporator 15/105 450 Once PAPed it becomes the Evaporator. It works much like the or…

So I was thinking about perk idea's for future zombies. One idea was something like the Pack-A-Punch, I know alot of people made a name up for it. It would be called the Perk-A-Punch. I was thinking it would be a machine where you enter it and it takes your perk and give you a new one. But I also came up with a new perk idea! It's called The Mixer or The Bartender it mixes perks! Like if you mix Double-Tap with Speed-Cola you would get something called Gunslinger. You can mix two to four perks together, I could only think of one mixed perk. Comment more mixed perks ideas!! Also maybe you could also upgrade the mixed perks!!

TRAYARCH! LOOK ALIVE!(or undead in this case). I've created this simple thread with one purpose: TO single out what your loyal zombies community wants from you! We are basically TELLING you how to build a great game! Each week: I will put another new, or old Idea that we will decide weather or not we want to see in COD zombie's next title. Our forums will vote on it, and on each friday, (sometimes later, I'm not perfect see) I will put down the title of idea and weather or not we want to see it in the "HISTORY" section. Week 8: Gun game? Yes or No. It's been done before for the Custom games from the UGX mod, do we want to see that again in th…

For those who have yet to see the Advanced warfare's new multiplayer reveal trailer, I suggests you do: Now this is (Hopefully) just the tip of new things implemented into the game. Now, my question to you guys is: How can this be implemented into zombies? Feel free to add anything you want to the list, but here's a start: -Exoskeleton -Defiantly should be included as either a build able or a perk for at least one map. -Supply drops--- Allows access to weapons BASED off of not EX or KD but SKILL and achievements. This is exactly what my custom box system should work with, but that's just me. -Virtual firing range: I will pr…

Ok this is kind of tongue in cheek, but if Treyarch is still releasing DLC for Black Ops 2, then it's more within the realm of possibility that they could release DLC 5, right? http://www.charlieintel.com/2014/08/09/nuketown-2025-map-finally-comes-to-black-ops-2-on-wii-u/

The topic of Buildables is a very touchy subject. Many many people don't like them because of the fact that they can be too OP, worthless, or just too tedious to get. I will tell you how they can vastly improve if they return in the next zombie installment. Step 1:The Formula-Mob of the Dead and Origins did great with the formula but how would it work with maps like Buried you ask? I will tell you how. Each Buildable is in the select menu with the name but only one square below it. When you have no parts for the Buildables the square shows a dull picture of the Buildable. When you find a part for let's say the zombie shield, you pick it up and when picked up, you go t…

So this is odd. On the new CoD Advanced Warfare Xbox One bundle, there are zombies style hashes (round markers). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gWa54-MMxwQ I really hope there is not zombies in Sledgehammer's game at this point. I hope it's just some sort of weird hommage. But maybe it's something similar like cyborg zombies or terminator robots, though I'm not sure why they'd have little chalk marks for rounds in a future setting. We'll see I guess. There must be a reason it's there.

We all had to remember the picture of a zombie and the Eiffel Tower that can be found on Der Riese. Hopefully I'm not wrong, but I believe that Moon was supposed to be Paris before they actually changed it to Moon since the code name refers to Paris, yes? I don't think any of he BO2 maps take place in Paris either (could be wrong on that). Is there any chance we'd see them in Paris now? That's like the map I'm certainly waiting for to happen, even if Moon did in fact come in its place. I know there has be something story wise that'll lead to Paris or at least somewhere in France.

We all know extinction stole a lot from zombies. Things like "schematics" which is just a BS way of saying Buildables, the special acid gun like the acid gat, the way to change that into different elements, search piles similar to dig sites, even the whole idea of surviving from a different species other than human I consider a copy. However, I am not here to tell you about what extinction copied, I'm going to tell you how zombies can "modify" some of extinctions ideas to make zombies even better! The Armory- zombies can use this idea but make it like the origins reward system where you can do various challenges like 3000 headshots or 30 grenade kills before a certain…

A tactical grenade idea I had, I would normally place in it wonder weapons thead but it isnt really a wonder weapon. A bit more in the emp family... But is also pretty tactical and felt like it deserved its own thread. Z-Gas 3 Max I cannot decide if they should come from the box or somewhere else.. Tell me what you think. Anyway it is a small advanced looking canister filled with an unknown green substance. It primes by twisting the top, then is thrown. Green gas comes out and all the zombies run to it. It lasts about as long as an awful lawton bolt and isnt too good.. Lets try throwing it at other stuff A zombie- All the other zombies attack it as if its a …

So I've been musing for a few days about the Swiss Cheese of a storyline of Black Ops 2 Zombies. We had absolutely no idea what was coming next after Moon, other than it was going to be set on a scorched Earth. What did we end up with? The final scene of Origins. EVERYTHING we know, loved and cared for could possibly just be a children's game. So it got me thinking. We love the Storyline. We love Easter Eggs. We love Easter Egg hunting. We love activating secret parts of a map (such as the Teddy bears/meteorites etc). We love killing zombies. We love the Wonder Weapons. We love the weapons. I'm going to stop with the love list, but you guys hopefully get …

Black ops 2 brought in the feature to give weapons a random attachment, but made it only work on 2025 weapons for canon's sake. Seriously screw that, in the next game pap should respin any gun, and you should be able to choose your attachments. For example: Press X then A for acog, X then B for rapid fire, X twice for no attachment, and X then Y for reflex. That was just an example, and i dont think it should outright tell you, so you have to experiment to see what each weapon gets from which button. Furthermore I feel like the pap on its own is great... Until about round 30. And i know loads of people feel the same way, so some sort of machine or way to upgrade furt…

Honestly, there are a bunch for me. One, I'm almost sure will come at some point. Combining Weapons. I can see the DLC/game trailer already. Vonderhaar going on and on about how it's the next big thing. Of course, the upgraded weapons will have to have drawbacks, but it'd be real cool. Imagine it, mixing an AN-94 with a Sliquifier, shooting quick glibs of bits of goo (smaller, to make up for the new-found fast speed). Or, a Blundergat (no acid) with the Wunderwaffe. I can just imagine the electricity coming off the barrel. More Acid-Gat Kit type of upgrades. What I mean by this, is what if you could upgrade much, much more weapons with devices other than the P…

I got thinking (dangerous, I know) about the idea of having more spin-off/fun maps in future zombies to come to keep the community occupied given the wait between Treyarch releases is now every 3rd year. These maps could either be related, or just maps that go between map packs as they have been doing these past couple seasons, and knowing 3arc, it would probably have some relation to what's going on or it may not, either way would be fine with me. Basically, take maps like Call of the Dead, Mob of the Dead or even Nuketown Zombies. Filler maps mostly, but they have some relevant EE's and references to when and what's going on. It would be nice if after 3arc's next se…

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…
