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.

So while zombies is out of season, I decided to give Ghosts a try. I wasn't too impressed with the campaign and multiplayer didn't interest me. Extinction however, is a different story. I played it a few times and wasn't very good but as I kept going and going I started to absolutely love it. It has that zombies survival feel with a mix of interesting challenges and objectives that keeps the game from getting boring and repetitive. Playing all of this Extinction made me think an awful lot about zombies and how what Extinction is doing right could easily work in zombies. So I'd like to break down a few things I think zombies could learn from Extinction. AI: The first …

Hey Guys, I have seen a few guys and gals talking about having content as part of DLCs. Guns and stuff. I can't stress how strongly that this is a bad idea. Zombies mode is meant to be simple. Each and every game you start the same way. There should be no way of starting with anything extra, be it via a purchased weapon or as a result of your ranking. The point is that a brand new player, can get to rank 1. If you start introducing different weapons for those that spend, that just goes out the window. If you introduce this, you will ruin zombies for multiple people. Unless it's done within custom matches, maybe that would be fine. I have friends …

A lot of people have stated that they would actually prefer that the storyline be hashed and that future maps should contain no story whats-so-ever. I understand why people would say this: BO2 zombies was horrible. It was downright unforgivable…. But I really don't think removing the story is a good idea. WE LOVE the story, it's fantastic. Why drop it? That would mean the end of easter eggs, the end of richtofen quotes… It'd be madness… ' SO: I've created this thread to help find ways to fix the storyline: Some main things that must be dealt with: - The different endings: we either need to pick one and go with it, or find a way to satisfy b…

So today I was just replaying the campaign mission Odysseus when I came across a few things that may be hints that it could become a future zombie map. I know from the Black Ops campaign that they do drop the smallest hints in the campaign about zombies DLC, like the mission Ascension resembles. You could look off in the distance and see a Cosmodrome launching a rocket and had the Mystery Box light shooting into the sky towards the beginning of the mission. Later in it, some scientists are burned by the gasoline of the rocket you destroy, and get burnt. They end up very closely resembling the zombies we saw at Ascension. Everything I'm about to put up is found in two cons…

Albert. Weasel. Arlington. Mob of the Dead is a fan favorite map (though honestly, I believe the Afterlife function made it too easy). It has an amazing story, and a very interesting ending. So, four inmates (Sal DeLuca, Michael Finn O'Leary, Billy Handsome, and Albert "The Weasel" Arlington) Concoct a hairbrained scheme to escape from the formidable Alcatraz. Albert, who is somewhat of an idiot savant, designed a makeshift plane from parts that could be found and hidden in the prison itself. Everything goes smoothly, until the very moment comes where they actually have to build the plane. Despite everything being planned perfectly, and all the par…

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.

If you do see any of the leaked information about Die Rise, remember the rules and keep it to yourself. There are numerous videos on YouTube and there are a few things popping up on forums. Unfortunately I happen to know something I shouldn't (a few of my friends showed me) but I'll not be spilling the beans until the 29th.

I don't know about anyone else, but when I first saw the leak, I thought Die Rise sounded more like Der Riese than High Rise. This is probably me thinking in context with Zombies, but did anyone else see this relation too?

I have wanted "Moonbies" for some time now, and now with the release of Ascension, I am hoping they follow it up with some type of moon map. Now I am not literally saying "on the moon", but maybe some type of "anti-gravity" area would be amazing. A good setting could be a "115 Refining/Storage Facility" or even a German moon base. It would be cool to see the monkeys return. Maybe we can find out their origins. (They did fall from the sky after all...) Were they tested on with 115? (More than likely) Again, this is what I would like to see, and may be probable after Ascension... Imo.

First off, let me point something out. Edward Richtofen is the in-game voice of Treyarch. He's the one that knows all the secrets. He's the one that hides things from us. He's the one that plays mind games. That being said, there's one thing that I'm going to say that's going to blow your minds, and my evidence is something in-game. TREYARCH LIES. The Timeline... though keeping an accurate recording of events lies in ONE respect. Every single cutscene takes place in the same universe. Maybe not in the same dimension of that universe, but still the same universe. I'll explain that later. First, my proof that Treyarch lies. Edward is the voice of Treyarch, and his password,…

I think they should have the pack a punch changed in the new maps so that you can upgrade you weapons multiple times but the cost goes up from 5000 to 10000 or 15000. Either way I think that new PaPd weapons would be interesting, instead of red bullets everything could be blue or something, or dual mags for the RPK and HK, what do you guys think

ZOMBIE FEILD is like Green Run (or something close), there's a bus that takes you to different places in Tranzit mode. There are five small maps that the bus can take you to, also separate maps for other modes: -Forest -White House -Mall -Volcano -Tunguska These small maps are connected by the Tranzit road. So that means Zombie Feild would have to be somewhere in North East of America. The Easter egg would be complicated because I haven't thought of the other maps in terms of traps or designs. But all this is Tranzit. Survival again has separate maps to play. Every map has a box, a perk, and a Pack-a-Punch. However, you can only find this perk on Forest, …

Today I will be presenting a few key story elements of old maps that we know nothing about or could possibly not be the way we think they are. These things might show us a small glimpse at where our story is going. The Unknown Man...The Phantom Who was he? Who is he? Who will he be? Number 2 Weasel and Nikolai. Why does weasel hear the name Nikolai. What is the importance? More in Shadows of Evil? The Time Bomb What was it's Original Purpose? Why does it exist? Did it succeed in it's purpose? The MPD Who Built it? Why was it used? Can we use it again? The Death of Doctor Maxis If Maxis did not shoot himself then who did? Or better question....Who Will…

Alright, so we heard Dr. Maxis clearly state the nevada base (Area 51) has more element 115 back on Der Riese during the radio message found in the underground alleyway area. The coordinates heard right before Peter's message on SNN also point to areas surrounding Area 51. People have hoped for Area 51 since Der Riese and I'm one of them. Any other takers?

Buried: Easter Egg Theory
by Guest- 7 replies
- 1.6k views
The theory I have created today regards the Buried easter egg. I will try to explain what the Wisp is, if the characters die and if we can tell who resumes control in the end. Okay, the first two important things I want to say about this theory are this: 1.) I believe that when Samantha or Richtofen are in the Aether, they only have control over a certain number of zombies. Even though they can change the eye colour, zombies will just try to eat people like regular zombies unless they are being controlled to just kill like we see in game. 2.) While Aether gives much power to those in control of the undead, it does not give them the power to control all zombies or mak…

Then more zobmies… Then finally we'll be all ready for the real zombies…. Presumably… I really hope trayarch doesn't cop out and say: "We will be doing no more zombies" or "we're going to wait an extra year"… Because that'd be bullshiz…

We think we know everything that happened during Moon. Mad scientist launches the Rockets at earth in order to Break the Rift…. But what if we had it all wrong? What if the missiles were originally meant to stop the opening of the Rift? In the 1960’s WWII was over and the united states salvaged remnants of group 935. They discovered, research, The uses of Divinium, some Live specimens and even the advanced teleportartion systems from der riese. They reverse engineered much of this and even managed to perfect Teleportation so that it allowed undead matter to pass through it. They created the Winters Howl and even installed a pack a punch inside the con…

So does anyone think the new die rise map will be a tranzit type of map? As much as I would approve I kinda have my doubts. For one, I don't think activision would miss the oppurtunity to advertise revolution as 4 multi player maps plus "multiple" zombie maps. I think it would lean more so towards how nuketown is, another location to zoom in on and one survival/ possible grief mode. Thoughts?

Ok, so for the past few years we’ve analyzed every map, every easter egg, even scraps of papers we find on the ground. We have achieved great results but we are still left with so many questions. However I believe I have discovered something no one has ever even paid attention to at all. The portrait of Roebuck in Five. Now, many people have looked at this portrait and just dismissed It as a mere reference to W@W. However I believe we have completely missed the implications that ONE portrait has on the Storyline, especially now more than ever. We now know thanks to the Giant that their mission is to set everything right again.…

Anyone else think 'Die Rise' doesen't sound like a zombie map name? I don't think it sounds 'professional(?)' enough to be a name for a zombie map. So i was wondering, prior to the release of Black ops 2, gamestop and other gaming retailers across the world had a poster for call of duty black ops 2, however it was called eclipse. Obviously we know eclipse isn't the name for this years call of duty, and (too my knowledge) there has been no findings as to why it was labelled eclipse. I'm just saying, treyarch have done it before and can do it again. Maybe Die Rise isn't the name for our map. Likewise with Eclipse, I think it doesen't sound right? Please comment on …

For the final map you should make it a Time Travel map. You go to all the different maps from WaW to all the new maps in Bo3. All the Guns are on that map and all the Wonder Weapons and all the perks. You can also merge all the Wonder weapons together to make the Ultimate Wonder weapon(everybody can have it). Zombie Challenges! - Complete a certain Challenge and call in a Panzer Soldat or something. The Soldat helps you for 5 rounds. - Other things that you can do for Challenges is you can call in maybe an Alien from Extinction to Help you. And if you are unable to complete the challenge Some(NOT ALOT) Aliens attack you and your team. - Some easy challenges are …

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/
