To the disturbing voice? No, she is the disturbing voice, friend.

This is true. However whether she talks to you or not has nothing to do with the round you're currently on. If you are in 'zombie blood mode' there's a pretty large chance of Samantha talking to your character directly in a very distorted voice. She's basically trying to manipulate Takeo, Dempsey and Nikolai into doing her bidding. I've gone through all her quotes multiple times. She never mentions any bombs of any kind.

They're all used in-game. She has a bunch of more quotes, I'll write them all down this weekend and update the quotes thread. Thanks PINNAZ.

I actually like Tranzit the most. I never run trains and the fog really didn't bother me at all. Sure, looking back, the map seems kinda empty. As the others have a lot more features and are designed arguably better than Tranzit was. But no map matched Tranzit epicness and fun at the time. I still love getting on the bus with a bunch of randoms. It's so unpredictable, that's why I love it.

What was Marlton doing in the Fallout Shelter? He said he had a lab of some sorts. Maybe that's his lab? What's the status on the O3 from Moon? They're probably dead. How was Samuel able to hear Aether voices in Die Rise, but not in Buried? The voices originate from the Zombies, moaning things like 'kill me, help me'. I think it's because they only died recently. As the Zombies in Tranzit and Buried have been dead for much longer than the ones in Die Rise. That or it's because their moaning was simply too annoying. What are the background stories of the N4? Russman - worked at Broken Arrow, knew Stu as a child. Probably got fired. Living on the streets til the outbreak happend. Marlton - scientist. Maybe he too worked at Broken Arrow and played a role in Russman's departure. ("You've been walking the earth ever since the, uhm, incident" refers to Russman's getting fired. It sounds like Marlton knows an awful lot about it. Which side of the Black Ops 2 Side Quests are canon? (Most likely Maxis) Maxis. What specifically was Broken Arrow? Never explained. Had some sort of involvement with the oubreak, so perhaps they are a modern 935-ish group studying Element 115 or something among those lines. How has Russ been living so long and healthy? He hasn't. He has more deceases than one can count. What is Russman's real name? RussMAN! What was the Purple Light from Die Rise about? Richtofen's mumbojumbo magic teleportation and restoration skills. What book does Samuel have during the events of all 3 N4 Maps? Good question. Probably the diary enteries we've been getting with each new map. What happend to the Mob Crew? They're all dead. Stuck in purgatory till they move on.

Yeah it's just statistical data pulled from the winner's profile. On our frontpage however, the text used to congratulate our current UOTM is much more personal and actually states the reason why Hells won the award. I would suggest having the text on the index page changed to the one we currently have on the frontpage. As that one's much more interesting to read than a bunch of statistics that I can also view when viewing their forum profile. Also, how do you rate someone's profile?

I feel like trying so hard to define the boundaries of what is okay and what is not is simply wasted effort and can eventually ruin the entire system. Brains are very subjective after all. Let our users decide what's brain worthy and what's not. Of course guidelines are needed to avoid the system spiraling out of control. But trying to objectively and systematically rule out any (future) posts or sections that aren't 'worthy of brains' is going too far in my opinion. I don't support limiting or excluding brains in any sections. And I don't agree with - Reasons not to give brains: A topic or post in the introduction section Take the following situation for instance: What if someone takes their time to write a pretty long or generally well constructed introduction post? It's well constructed and well thought out. It's also zombie-relevant. So normally it would be worthy of brains. But yet simply because it's in a specific sub-forum I'm not allowed to give him or her (perhaps their very first) brains for going out and taking the time to introduce themselves to our users? Same thing applies for Forum Games. What if someone comes up with a forum game that engages a large part of our community? Isn't that a bit too strict?

No to changeable or buyable weaponry. Yes to some character customization for the non-story gamemodes like survival and grief. Aside from Map Packs, there should be no additional purchasable content. And please, no more "Exclusive Pre-Order ONLY MP maps (which will be totally free to download for everyone after a mere month)," Activision. I'm still furious about that one.

Welcome, indeed. Don't forget to claim your almighty introduction medal. And enjoy your stay of course.

I wonder what kind of survival mode we're gonna get with Sledgehammer's game. Aliens? Cyborgs? Both?

Cool ideas. Get a new Damned remix playing in the background and this'll be perfect. Another great thead, Mocking. Keep up the excellent work.

2015 Xbox One release over here (hopefully) Halo 5 Next Mass Effect New PW Gears of War 4 Zombies Put me in a timemachine.

"Activision CEO said ... to deliver one of the best Call of Duty titles ever" Hmm, where have I heard this one before.. On the bright side, this means more polish time for our favorite mode. And in all honesty, I'm kinda burned-out at this point. Still hurts having to wait another year though. (cough AC cough)

Thank you, PINNAZ. Actually I have around 1/3 of her quotes already transcribed in the thread.

I like this a lot. +1 (Purchasable outfit DLC? Who do you think you are, Capcom?)

Wouldn't it be better if this was sent automatically to new members as a PM once they joined the site?

'Big Boy' mwahahaha More interactive objects.

Welcome, amigo! Let me be the first to make our now standard "Enjoy your stay. Since you'll stay .. forever" joke. It's tradition. Your avatar is awesome btw.

Welcome, friend. Enjoy your stay.

Oui, s'il vous plaît. Ça serait génial.
