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.

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1EtGWoRLpXmx7Y28OcJB7j6TPJVMIONCF02_T_6ROpoU/edit?usp=sharing I wanted to create an updated timeline which includes the background events of Classified and Alpha Omega as well as Campaign events and real life events that would pertain to our storyline. The above link is what I have so far. I will eventually go on to add the events of the Broken Cycle, probably after the final DLC so we can have a full sequence of events. As of right now, tell me if I'm missing anything, because I would love to add as much clear info as possible to put things into a more linear perspective. I tried my best to only include events th…

Hello, all. I've spent a lot of time over the past couple of months working on a new timeline which I planned to use for another project, but that may not come through. But this could be a very valuable resource to some people, so I am sharing it today. This is a timeline that compiles all Aether media including trailers, cutscenes, the timeline, ciphers, documents, etc. into a massive timeline where everything is arranged similarly to the Treyarch-released timeline. I think I have everything here in regards to media, but I could be wrong, and please let me know if there is something I left out. I included like two pictures in there, but would be open to addin…

Making this post as a repository for all notable resource libraries for the zombies storyline. This list will hopefully keep growing, and feel free to suggest more resources, old and new, to add to the list. Hoping this will consolidate all these resources in one easy to find place to allow for better research.

I realize that there's already a thread somewhat similar to this, but I believe that's more of what people are expecting from zombies. What I want in this thread is some really good suggestions that you think should be included in Zombies. Do you have an idea for a new map? A new trap? New weapons? New characters? New perks? If there's anything new that you think should be included in Zombies, please leave them here. Ultimately, what do YOU suggest that Treyarch should do with Zombies? If you'd like to tell us what you're expecting from Zombies, rather than what you suggest should be included, post here: viewtopic.php?f=81&t=19114 Also, here is Mp1st reporti…

^ From Nightmare Voyager. Things seen in the backgrounds of the video, compied from throughout this thread by various users (see thread for details) and modified/merged/added to slightly by me. These are more or less facts, not speculation as to what they mean. Richtofen crossed out with fab 4 on two separate pictures from the Origins time period, one from Twitter account photos, one from B&W face profiles Inspirations for zombies showed walking dead and 28 days later. The storyline has direct connections. The Die Rise TV mentions Atlanta and the zombies being a virus. Brain and heart sketches under the pictures in a book The monkey skull the looks like t…

EDIT: I enjoy hearing about new wunderguns that you guys have come up with. Leave the name and description of your personal wunderweapon! We all know about the Wunder-weapons. They're the piece of the map that everybody looks forward to ascertaining. Everytime a new map pack comes out (in this case, new GAME) one of the first questions on people's minds are "which gun will be in this one?" Treyarch made the ingenius move of making the fun blasting ray gun and.keeping it in every map, its sort of become a symbol FOR the zombie mode specifically. However, even more-so genius than that was the introduction of the Wunder-Waffe. To this day i still believe that gun is the …

Hey there. I made this post to throw some of my ideas on how to take the classic Nazi Zombies game mode and bring it to the next level while maintaining it's core gameplay that so many have come to enjoy. The main purpose of this is that while there has always been some new equipment and perks and enemey types added. The zombie mode gets to a repetitve stall around rounds 20+. That is when the players have most of their things and now they only focus on their ammo reserve and doing same loops as long as they can. Games can take very long and at some point your guns are useless and only way to play is to make points to use traps over and over again. So here are som…

SO how do you all think the Mark two will end up come COD 2015? Personally, I see it as an ample opportunity to persuade players to get the hardened editions and other bonus additions, as the M2 would be a great addition to the game that we know players are ok with. Of course there will be other ways of getting the M2 later on… But on the other hand it COULD be left to only be used in BO2…. Never to be seen again….

It's official, Sledgehammer Games will be making the next Call of Duty. With that said, Treyarch's game will be releasing next year which means we won't have any new zombies maps for a long time. How do you feel about this decision? I'm trying to be as optimistic as I possibly can in the sense that Treyarch will have another year to complete the next installment to the series, meaning the quality of their content they release should increase. But at the same time, it's going to be rough not having new zombies maps until 2015.

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 …

Exactly what the title says Do You Think we will be getting an All Zombies Map Pack. Personally I know some people dont want this. I just want all the maps even if they are just the BO1 maps brought over. I have a few reasons for this. 1 We could do the easter eggs remastered. It would be so much fun to do the EE's again on all the maps. 2 BO1 zombies matchmaking is UNBEARABLE. What I mean by this is when you play any zombies map. Since its not running on the MP engine people who are host try to leave the game and END IT. I CANT PLAY MULTIPLAYER ON ANY OF THE MAPS DUE TO THIS. I really want an all zombies MP with at least half the maps remastered. In my mi…

Here is a fake a pretty nice looking one, but obviously doubt Treyarch would reuse images from "Moon" trailer for the Maps logo. Plus especially if it is like Rezurrection then they'd have completely new images and maybe the gimmicks they did last time around "Asylum-Verruckt, Night-Natch" Honestly both the Character for the DLC(the zombie) it looks like something I'd want blue eyes on one side, orange on the other, and the name "Rebirth" kind of sounds like a good name for a DLC BUT not for a Zombie DLC imo. Other than that, not much I want to comment on. Basically this thread is to say that watch out for fake poster images, as we won't know what is real of fake until Tr…

just gonna make it quick and simple. Zombie eyes will always be a part of the Game and they will always come in a variety of colors. So far we have seen Yellow, Blue, Red, and Purple. I personally don't see the difference between orange and yellow so orange does not count. now I ask.... What Color would you like to see Zombie eyes become in the future? personally I think Green or Black.

So if the zombies storyline wasn't confusing enough then this is going to make it even more confusing. Please remember this is all speculation but it could be true. So throughout World at War zombies at the start of the match we were always told where we were in the bottom left corner, and it said Germany for Natch Der Untoten, Verrukt and Der Reise - maybe Treyarch is lying and here's why: First instead of you having to read all of my writing and explanation watch this video first then come back so you understand what I'm talking about: http://youtu.be/2IR77-btTY4 Now you've seen how Shadows of Evil and The Giant are linked, pretty much The Giant could actually be set…

So as you might have heard: There are rumors which say that Activision is going to switch to the PS4 as opposed to the Xbox One in terms of actually creating the game. You also might have heard that CoD has been an Xbox (360) game which was beeing ported to the PS3 for like the last billion years. So what could this mean for Playstation users: No more freezing while playing online No more less than 60 fps No more frame rate lag after killing more than 6 zombies in less than a second No more waiting a month for overpriced DLC. I personally dislike this whole lead platform talk. But to be honest it would be pretty nice to actually be able to play BO2 online with…

With Black Ops 2 the community was quite divided about the Black Ops 2 it was pretty much love it or hate it game. For me it was latter in both story and game design choices. But this thread is not about BO2 but about the future of zombies. Do you care anymore? Do you hope it goes the path BO2 chose? Do you wish for it to return more to its roots?

I'm sure some have you have heard the recent Vanderhar tweets recently... Honestly I find that's a little weird considering I thought I heard he left treyarch... IDK... Things... Anyways, he stated he was enjoying domination, this could mean the domination in Advanced warfare, or the domination of the next game. If it's the next game, that's incredible. That means they've gotten MP to the stage in which it is actually completing some maps! That's so much further then the average rotation! With all this extra time, what do you guys think it will mean for zombies? On the regular rotation last year we got town, transit, farm, bus depot, nuke town, and the grie…

Before we get started, YES. I do know that there are other games dedicated to zombies only. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________ What if Treyarch/Infinity Ward/Sledgehammer made a CoD game specifically dedicated to zombies? Think about it: there would be more memory to put in more maps, weapons, and other features. Yes, there would still be multiplayer, but multiplayer survival or grief. Instead of having 3 base maps, there could be 7 or 8 maps. Even a "Zombies Campaign", where it shows all the maps and easter eggs to finish the storyline. Even better, like in WaW, you could build yo…

This theory is to prove that a future zombie map will take place on Firing Range. I don't have a capture card so I went on youtube to find the evidence I found. First there are PAP flags around the map, a teddy bear, and bullets that say Tank Dempsey. Teddy/Flags: Bullets: The next is a sign that says "gateway to hell" outside the map. Sign: Beyond the sign are bombing jets on a runway. Now for the dreamland server. when you open up vbush's documents theres one that say servanta00115. When you open that file it gives you locations of element 115 two of which are the moon and Groom Lake. Groom Lake is a salt flat in Nevada North of Area51, has runways for bo…

People begin hearing the first about the next year's COD normally just after the first or second DLC is dropped. My logic is that once one game enter's DLC season, the next game enters early production. This may not be exactly how it works but I can't be too far off. SO What I am doing here is making a checklist for trayarch, post the BIG things you want in the next game and I'll add them to the list. THEN hopefully if trayarch uses this site at all, we can give them a list of what we want in the next game. THIS WAY trayarch can pull more of what players want then what they want to put in themselves. I should mention there is no particular order to the list, however…

This is a question I'd like to ask about next year's ranking system: Which is better to you guys: Skill: Like the one we have now based on Kill/Death/Down/what round you're on that determines your rank. Objective: A bit more advanced and useful. This ranking system never goes down, but instead requires the player to perform certain tasks: Survive the first room without opening any doors, hit the mystery box 20 times in one game, complete the easter egg, ect. And for the second question: Should ranking systems be map-specific or apply to every map? Map specific: Each map a player has holds a different rank. One could b…

So I'm not sure this warrants a post, but here it is anyway for cataloging purposes. Treyarch and Jimmy have tweeted a few cryptic things. So likely nothing. Reponses are hopeful it's some sort of DLC or 2015 zombies tease.

Hello everybody. My name is Naitrax, and I am a zombies addict. I literally have an unhealthy obsession with this god of a mode, going as far as simply purchasing an Xbox One because of the Early DLC, even though the popular opinion worldwide seems to be that PS4 is better. The Ranking System in Black Ops 2 is broken. I hear so many people whining about how broken it is, and how you do all this crap to get this and this just to lose it if you have a bad game. So I propose a change. This change came from multiple places, and the Challenge Box on Origins gave me a huge inspiration for this. However, this change is not in the way you think it would be. There are leve…
