I'm a veteran in the zombies portion of Call of Duty. I've been playing since World at War and have stuck with the game and the story since then. Both World at War and Black Ops 1 featured the Golden Age of Zombies in my opinion. The maps, wonder weapons, unique zombies were all amazing and suited each map so well. When Black Ops 2 came around, the simplicity of the old maps left. We were introduced to buildables which a lot of people didn't like. The maps were mediocre in my opinion and I felt that the overall vibe was gone. It no longer felt creepy as the older maps did. I miss the survival aspect of zombies. I miss the simplicity of the maps. Does anyone else feel the same?

Dempsey also jokes about Richtofen doing some... erm... unsanitary things with the Monkey Bomb as well. Mainly why I miss the old crew. So full of crass and jokes about each other. As for Call of the Dead, I love the map. It's large, there a great training spots, and the Easter Egg was awesome My only real gripe with the map is when George Romaro shouts, which slows you down and speeds the zombies up. If you're looking someone to play with, I'd love to (of course only have only if you have an Xbox 360).

CotD before Ascension? :O how could you?!? ;) But really, Ascension is one of the best maps ever, while CotD is...only meant for a handful of folks. I like it, but only after having played for hours in desperation and disgust. Hahahaha! Takeo and the monkey bomb. It's a longstanding joke. Takeo is very attached to the monkey and Nikolai thinks he had an affair with it. lol

One old school thing that i really miss: the zombies came for you no matter where you went. No matter how far you ran, where ever you hid, you would see that zombie ambling (or running) after you until it got there. Now, he despawns and respawns next to you. That sucked when it was new and still ruins the feel, while adding unnecessary annoyance. It's one of those things that i figured they would eventually repair to the older, better, way. It felt scary back then, now it just feels stupid with the respawns.
