I believe this to be the work of a demon. As we have seen from the trailer, there are lots of creepy things hiding on Alcatraz, such as a fiery demon, an underground room full of corpses and LOTS of skulls and candles, plus writing on the walls. I think the Warden was a demon summoner and summoned the demon who controlled the zombies. He then went mad, writing spells on the walls, drawing symbol of demonic origin, and all that good stuff. Demonic Being controls the zombies

As a new melee weapon, much similar to the Galvaknuckles? Possibly, it would be interesting if we got a new electric melee weapon. I wasn't really thinking when I imagined that, but if it was buildable, the actual baton itself, a coil of wire, and something to make it electrocute as parts. This would work well for this map I think. A new melee weapon would be nice to use.

I hope this WW is upgradeable... If not, then 3arc are going to get

First of all, welcome to the forums! We hope you enjoy your stay and try and contribute in as many ways possible to the community! You should probably go introduce yourself over here: http://www.callofdutyzombies.com/forum/viewforum.php?f=5 Secondly, I think this is the direction 3arc are moving with the WW's. We are getting more gimmicked weapons than properly useful. I think the MotD WW will be a laser gun (just saying)

I know the Zombie Shield is coming back (we can see a car door and the push cart) but I think we should be able to build zip lines. Parts: Handle Rope x2 (one to be placed at either end of the path) Once placed, it has limited uses before it snaps and must be repaired with new rope!

yup i think while ur in purgatory whatever u do affect the living,like playing as a zombie I don't think we will play as a zombie. They already introduced Turned for that exact reason. I think purgatory will be a state of in-between, where we can accomplish things to help our Overworld teamates

I hope we get a laser-type weapon which would completely annihilate the zombies... That would be awesome...

I think we shall be freeing the O4 on this map so maybe there will be a collab between Elena and A7X, since this map will be like CotD...

I think everyone is looking forward to traps again, and their are multiple areas in the trailer where activation switches can be found. Even if I didn't use the traps much, it's nice to know they are there should we need them.

Thanks GRILL. Nice to know my work has been appreciated. I personally can't stand when people call things "T.E.D.D" and Avogadro. With the boss on Die Rise I let it slide since there was no official name. Also I enjoy watching NGT and PTG, but they are the leading cause for misinformation regarding the Zombies Storyline. I have a friend who thinks he know everything about Zombies after watching NGT & PTG... It annoys me! But thank you again. I feel special :3

So far, we have had names that date back further than our time frame for the map. So if we assume that Alcatraz takes place PAST 1941 and BEFORE Samantha entered the MPD (I don't know the exact year of this) then we can narrow it down to a much smaller time period. So I am assuming it will be one of these names: "Uncle Sam's Devil's Island" (Fits with the Demonic theme, don't you think?) "The Rock" (sorry, had to be here) "Alcatraz" "Island of the Pelicans" (the original name for the island) "Fort Alcatraz" (I think this will be the one or Devil's Island) So it is either between Fort Alcatraz or Uncle Sam's Devil's Island for me.

I am not familiar with that show nor that character nor Bo... (whatever that is) But after a quick search, they do not look similar in the slightest

Hi gais it's Nai here and I just want to clear something up about the Warden. So everyone is thinking that this guy here is the Warden (a rumoured boss zombie in the latest CoD Zombies map, Mob of the Dead): And this seems about right. He has his own cinematic, so he seems important. But I am here today to tell you that he is NOT the Warden. And I have evidence to back me up. First off there is this: This is the badge of an Alcatraz Guard. They would wear these as a symbol of authority. And does it seem familiar to you guys? That's right. It is similar to the badge pinned on the zombie in that picture! I bet you're thinking: "So what? I'm sure the Warden's wore a badge too" And you are absolutely right. BUT the Warden's wore THIS badge, as proved by the next picture I will show you: Sorry it's a little small, but this is the badge the Warden's would wear. Proved HERE: See the badges on their hats? That is the badge of the Warden! More Proof (credit to PINNAZ for bringing this to my attention): This is an image of one of the Wardens of Alcatraz on display in their museum. This proves BEYOND all reasonable doubt that this man in the trailer is nothing more than a Guard of Alcatraz. Our REAL Warden is yet to come (IF he does end up being important). I hope you liked reading this and this should clear things up quite a bit. ~Nai :)

Oh THAT would be very creepy... Then when they destroy the demon... You spawn back!! But then you just spawn back in and the game never ends... Because as long as one person is alive it would be too easy just to re-incarnate everyone... But I am assuming destroying the demon is hard... Maybe to destroy them and free the soul... You feed it zombie souls? As he kills the zombie in the trailer the demon opens it's mouth, as if eating it's soul...

Oh THAT would be very creepy... Then when they destroy the demon... You spawn back!!

Okay. This is officially the MOST AMAZING MAP EVER (from what we have seen so far, even in a 3-minute trailer...)!!! I've been wanting a demon-centered map for a while now and this looks like we are finally getting one. And no better place than Alcatraz to accomplish that!

While this is a good and valid theory, I just don't think this map will contain a Spire. Come on, it's like CotD, we'll have to help the O4 escape from Moon, for them to meet us in Paris duh! But for real. A Spire has no place on Alcatraz. Because remember: "No one escapes Alcatraz (at least in this time period)"

Back then, cheap. I mean come on! The Zombies just slipped backwards and couldn't climb the escalator! But there was a nerf of the Sliquifier a while back, making it a bit different. I'm pretty sure that stops the Zombies from falling backwards on slopes, destroying the Galvaknuckle area exploit. So now, It would be considered legit IF that exploit no longer works. :)

Kind of like in Back to the Future where you change one event and it impacts the future right? I'm thinking that too. I'm also thinking that we WILL get tortured in Purgatory. Maybe not physically, not mentally or emotionally. Maybe we'll see things that aren't there, or hear voices. I think we'll hear voices. The ones Richtofen heard before entering the MPD. But I do think Purgatory will be this really out of place area. But as I stated before, I, personally, believe we shall be helping out our friends on the Moon. Somehow, we'll do something in Purgatory to communicate with the characters and make it all happy for them.

I wouldn't be surprised if we get another troll PhD... Also it DOES look like a Double-Barrel... But what if it it was two guns fused? The barrels look slightly different... Maybe it is like the Wave Gun/Zap Guns? Fusing is something we've always wanted... With all the demonic influence on this map...

I'd been thinking about Die Rise as a flying city for a while now, but never thought this deep into it. Great work on this thread. This really get's you thinking about the whole map in a new perspective. Once again, great thread.

This is a demonic force of the likes we have never seen before. I no longer believe it to be a Ghostly Hellhound. I just KNOW it will be a Demonic Demon from the depths of Hell! This goes along with Matuzz's theory of the Warden being a demon summoner (as proved by the many candles and skulls lying around, commonly used in witchcraft) Also I agree EJ: that Zombie is NOT the Warden. It is an Alcatraz Guard. He is wearing THIS badge: It looks like a cinematic... Maybe the characters killed a guard, and he got back up? Therefore emphasis on this one Guard as he was the first Zombie they encountered??? But no. That is NOT a Hellhound. Hellhounds are WAAAAAY more cute :3 This is the PERFECT map for Treyarch to start including insane demonic forces.

Welcome to CoDz! I hope you enjoy your time here and contribute to our community! I'm just calling it now: we WILL be helping our friends from space in this EE. I think you are spot-on with the Purgatory hearing the O4 theory. Once more details of the map arise, I will try and compile a list of possible EE steps relating to what we have seen of the map.

Hmm... Interesting thing. Nice post Titan. Devs starting to drop hints about the map... Be on the lookout for more stuff!

To contradict everything just posted: Guys, we've already SEEN a perk. We know they are there. As to how that happened, I have no answer. We'll just have to wait and find out! ;)
