@tEfugleskremmel I don't know if you have seen this thread yet (Time and Location of All Maps), but you raised some interesting points and thought you would enjoy it. It's about to go through an overhaul, also, so feel free to point anything out you disagree with! (Besides Moon and Nuketown, those are going to be a bit more structured :p) I think a difference should be made between the kinds of 'resetting.' There's the normal respawn-forever-to-complete-your-mission, which is what we see throughout much of the game. Then there's "shifting," which is us going to some other, isolated place when engaging in the infinite respawns. This is the case in Mob of the Dead and Shadows of Evil, at the very least (not sure if I'm missing an example). @NaBrZHunter, I know we have discussed this at length, though it was a while ago. Have anything to add?

I'm going to disagree with you here, I don't see the Keepers being inspired by the Vril-ya. Like, yes, they are Gatekeepers, not Vril-ya. But for all intents and purposes, I think saying they're the same thing and using the two interchangeably doesn't hurt a thing and it's not really incorrect.

Ante Up got a slight buff today, going from 100 to 150! Seems small but I think this will help more than we think.

With just one day until the release of the Eclipse DLC, Activision has been on the ball about trying to create hype. Just this morning, they released a new gameplay trailer for the multiplayer maps (Knockout, Spire, Rift, and Verge), which can be viewed below. Don’t get too excited, though, because while Activision’s footage is quite expansive compared to their previous 18-second clips, it still pales in comparison to the map walkthroughs done by TmarTn, Ali-A, and even MrRoflWaffles. Also today, Treyarch invited a couple professional football players to the studio in order to (hopefully) add to the hype. The players are running back Matt Forte and quarterback Todd Gurley of the New York Jets and Los Angeles Rams, respectively, and they’ll be playing the maps today at 1:30 PDT on the Call of Duty Twitch channel! With all of the new map footage, how's everyone feeling about Eclipse? View full news

Why not create a separate thread for this? I mean, truthfully, it deserved its own more than any of the others. But yeah the Kronorium, certainly interesting. Note sure whether to think it's a place or the book. I suppose time will tell.

This, truthfully, is exactly what you do. You wait and determine for yourself whether it could be or could not be.

This link (under the Character profiles tab) is them without the Dalek watermark, but does have the important letters marked. It's the best I could find that was still of high quality. Here you go:

I've been pushing for this (in my head, at least) for a while and would love to see it happen. Personally, I think it would be a cool bonus DLC to have the four DLC zombies maps converted to multiplayer. I have a bad feeling that maps similar to Shadows and Der Eisendrache could be a little campy though, because there's lots of twists and turns and odd cubbies. If that could be worked out somehow, I'd be even more in love with this idea.

Wow. I always knew people thought that Iron Crosses signified a different World War I outcome in the Giant timeline, but not that some believed it itself was WWI. But yeah, like you said, now they'll know!

Full blood vial in the map trailer (very bottom left):

Out of curiosity, how do you think the HIVE could be implemented here? It seems to work well in multiplayer because you deal with fewer people, but in zombies where there's 20+ coming at you, how could it be implemented, do you think?

Likewise, that stuck out to me as well. I'm excited to figure it out. There were people saying The Giant wasn't World War II? On what grounds was that argument made?

Just a bit ago, Treyarch tweeted out a new "The Giant" bio, so here's the link and details: Transcripts Tweet: Picture: Anyone have any thoughts on it? Something that sticks out to them?

Lol why are you criticizing his idea on those grounds? You suggested this kind of thing first.

The zombie actually isn't dead when the plant picks it up, so that's worth noting.

I'm intrigued as to what they may have been used for!! This is awesome.

It's odd, because I've gone through different stages in my specialist career, so to speak. Originally, I couldn't aim well enough with the weapons so I stuck to the abilities, but now my issue is that I have confidence in my gunfights so I don't use the abilities. So for that, it's hard for me to say. Love Heat Wave and Tempest at the moment, but I may just be on a streak. We'll have to see.

It is! Images and video are stickied on the ZNS forum, if you want to check it out.

Well if you'd like help, I'm here. Give it the time it deserves (which is a lot), because many have tried and failed to adequately explain the connection. Any who, back on topic, THIS TRAILER OMG

Loving the new spiders, they look perfect. Good size, very creepy, and all-around awesome.

Haha I don't agree with all of those, necessarily, but yeah. Lots of Lost in this game that hasn't been explored.

@Doppelgänger Oops, missed that sorry. I'm absolutely in love with the new Division 9 logo, being what I believe to be a cross from Lost's Dharma Initiative and a Black Sun variation (thanks @MixMasterNut for pointing out the Black Sun influence). Anyone have thoughts on that?

Oh my gosh I love it, such a beautiful trailer and map. One thing I want to ask, is what is this? Could it pertain to our drop?

Double Crypto, let's goooo!!!
