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.

This thread is here to discuss the perks that can, should, and may not return for BO3. Now, in black ops 2 we've had just about every perk return from black ops one and WAW. So it's safe to say they'll all return at one point. In black ops 2 however, 5 new perk machines were introduced, here's the general reception of these perks: Tombstone- Was a nice idea for a perk, especially on a map the size of tranzit, however, only being a Co-op perk and how it could be exploited to get all perks is an issue. I don't think this perk will be returning, however, it is more likely then Who's Who. Who's Who- Commonly referred to as the worst perk ever. 2000 is way over-priced …

I have been wondering lately what I would call the new group in Shadows of Evil, since I already call the Tranzit group the New Crew I decided to call these characters "The Cursed" because it is better than the other new guys. I then decided to write down all of the names I called each group, but it got me thinking about what others call them. This isn't some big theory or anything but it is research because I think knowing what people call the groups is useful for understanding their terminology. So what I am going to do is list all of the possible names for each group. I call them whatever names I put first. I really want to hear what others call them and if anyone has …

So I was thinking today (Yes I actually think from time to time) and I realize that all of us have different preferences in what we believe is true. Some of us believe maxis shot himself while others believe marlton is from 2025. So lets share our own personal Headcanons. In my Headcanon when group 935 allied themselves with the Nazi's they had Jews Shipped from the camps to the Moon in order to use them as sacrifices or They took patients from Verrukt and if they had any leftovers then they would just send them back to the asylum because no one would believe an insane person's claims that scientists were killing people on the moon. In my personal headcanon. The Origin…

So I was looking at the challenges within the game(i.e Zombie Hunter and the like) and noticed a sort of running theme between the three different sets. For instance, all of the achievables within the "Zombie Hunter" tier of challenges have calling cards which seem to reference the Shadows of Evil noir style. The other two tiers(one of them is "Gum Gobbler" and the other is "Survivalist" if I remember right) have general themes. The one I found interesting was the second tier, Survivalist. There seems to be somewhat of a Dia de Los Muertos theme ongoing, or the "Day of the Dead" for the non familiar. This ties in with something that Dempsey says in one…

The Man, The Myth, The Legend "Tank" Dempsey was an American Marine serving in the Pacific Front of World War II, as well as an operative for the OSS through their efforts to steal Group 935's secrets in the developing technological front of the war. Little is known about his life before the war, and he would prefer to keep it that way. In terms of his family, he would only admit to having a 5 year-old daughter, a daughter he may never see again. Dempsey prefers the world see him as a muscled, masculine "Tank" of a man: A lover of a good fight and of a good woman. He is the embodiment of American male exceptionalism of the 20th Century. …

Alright so in our story we have encountered many popular conspiracy theories such as Moon Nazi’s, Hollow Earth, H.A.A.R.P., John F. Kennedy’s assasination, and the Illuminati. It seems, however, that we have always ignored the existence of another well-known one: the conspiracy in which some Nazi fanatics fled to South America from where they planned to re-establish their Third Reich. The conspiracy that told us Hitler’s death was faked, as he was actually among those fled Nazi’s. Now I believe we’ve found proof for this theory in the Aether’s very last map, Tag der Toten. First let’s get into some history. Operation ODESSA was the codename that was given to t…

Pack-a-Punch I think in the future, they should take the tweak the PaP's mechanics a bit. Taking a cue from Nuketown Zombies, I think they should be allowed to PaP more than once. I wouldn't want the weapons to get any stronger the second time though. This is how I would like it: When you first get any gun (from box, wall or to start with) it has no attachments. In previous maps if you PaP'd it, it would get an attachment depending on your weapon. In this map, every gun has the ability to get certain attachments. So when you PaP a MP5, it has a reflex sight; next time it may have a grenade launcher, Fore grip or a plethora of other attachments (which is randomly chosen …

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 …

I know people want old maps back but still you can just put in a disc and play them all (black ops) wink wink but still ill rather have one great map and no old maps but instead a map creator and down loader think about people can recreate maps make maps use the o4 or n4 build weapons make machinery. Wouldn't that be awesome it would be like a infinite maps all in one. Don't know about you but I would love that and I know that the pc version of was you can make maps but what about making them on a console like the far cry 3 map editor then you can also make multiplayer maps too maybe.

So, this is my first post in Future Zombies. I've theorized maps before but this is the first time I've felt confident enough to post. One can infer at this point that Treyarch are following a pattern with their DLC's. Black Ops II's correspond in some way to Black Ops I's. Map Pack 1: Ascension-Die Rise: Both about rising and you ride something in both by standing on it (lunar landers and elevators) Map Pack 2: Call of the Dead-Mob of the Dead Map Pack 3: Shangri La So from there, we can assume our third map pack will be in some way associated with Shangri La. Now, if we head over to Jimmy Zielinski's twitter (https://twitter.com/Zieli…

its pretty certain that the next iteration of zombies will have a ranking system of some kind, but shouldnt our ranks reflect what type of player we are? maybe through emblems? heres my general idea. - a medic emblem for players that revive often or even buy quick revive in mp consistently. syringe maybe? - a general team player emblem, this would be for players who buy tons of doors, build things or complete EEs. -high rounder emblems 40+=shotguns, 50+= dual rayguns, 60+=theb wonder weapon from that specific map. -emblems for headshots/accuracy. crosshairs or what not. -strategist embems, there would be 2 types, camper or runner - emblem for players that stay in…

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,…

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?

Create a perk-a-cola you would like to see in future map packs! Pictures would be cool aswell. I made these pics in MS paint so don't judge me. Switch~Swap Soda: Switch weapons faster, pull out equipment/special grenades faster. 2000 points. Grenadier Gulp!: Allows you to switch primary grenade for another special grenade. 1000 points. Carbonated Gassy Drink: (If Nova6 crawlers return) Immunity to Nova gas or monkey's jumpy-explotioin things, and walk through traps taking no damage and unphased. 1500 points. What are your ideas to propose? :)

I think for a future zombie map they should have J.F.K., Macnamara, Dempsey and Takeo as the characters. Then perhaps for the map after that have Richtofen, Nikolai, Nixon and Castro. It could easily be explained in the story because their MDT's could have glitched when the characters on Five and the main characters on another map used them at the same time.

Remember how one of the major clues leading to Ascension was that at certain points in "Revelations" when you paused, it said Ascension? I dont know if anyone else noticed this, but if you pause it later on in the level, a little after the rocket launches, it says Echelon instead of Ascension. Any ideas on what it means?

Say you buy the knuckle everytime for 20 straight matches... each time you buy em and use em a lot, there would be just a little bit more blood already on em.. until the 20-30th time in a row buying it.. then they would have blood, pus, brain matter, and skull pieces as you're still mashing the zombies to death. C'mon Treyarch, make it bloody for us >:)
