So Maxis & Richtofen are looking to discover something hidden below? And they accidentally unearth something else? Something smells of Vril Ya and Argatha.

Damn, Takeo's wall running and Katana skills are sick! And we finally get to see what Maxis looks like, nothing at all what I envisioned.. Samantha in 1918? Is she gonna be telling the story or something, like the tapes in MoTD? Either way that sent chills down my spine..

I'm almost confident this is the location of our map. First the beam of light and there's a glimpse of one of the O4 in a church-looking building, very similar to this monastery. And Belgium borders Northern France, supposed origins of Der Reise!

The difference in the robots is The Bus Driver is (mostly) friendly unless aggravated and is the remains of non-935 Human creation. This robot thing is believed to be created by Maxis and hostile. And this map isn't in Germany, no ties with Nacht at all. No idea why Nachts' remnants are in Green Run but as for Origins and Nacht there are no connections (yet).

How about MoTD then? The AN-94 and 870 are walled there, among a bunch of other weapons not created in the 30s. Wall Weapons aren't Canon, just Tryarch compensating.

The 74u & MP5K are on the walls of Kino, Ascension & Five which were introduced in the 70s, not the 60s when those maps take place.. I don't think the Remington being in Origins is a huge deal.

Or maybe in our wilidest dreams Nolan North in Richtofen cosplay :D

No, unfortunately it's not a remade Nacht, or even in Germany for that matter. Can't say much but we will be in Europe, perhaps somewhere we've always wanted to go but never been to.

First one is Dig, the Multiplayer map based off an Archaeological excavation site, heads up. Yeah that other one is fascinating though. It;s absolutely connected to the Easter Egg, looks like some monument, in the Poster there's a beam of light coming from or to it, so there's something up with it.

I'm thinking its gonna be more of a Cyborg zombie, a stronger, more efficient zombie. Connecting its' brain to a superhuman suit y'know so it's like, a super-zombie like Brutus.

Well, there is the Ray Gun in the World at War campaign, and the Thunder Gun in the Black Ops campaign aswell. Those are Easter Eggs, my friend. Like someone said above, the Zombies UStoryline takes place in entirely different Universe, the minor connections you speak of are just small Easter eggs thrown in by Treyarch.

Am I right in saying that that robot-thing is the creature shown in the Origins Teaser on the operating table? I mean, same skin color/paleness, obvious deformation and the robot looks like its had brain operation of some sort. Don't have the image handy but I'll see if I can get a side-by-side.

What out of this thread was a leak? I really do not understand. Not from your Post, someone posted a bunch of leaked info about the map. Mods quickly deleted it.

Not surprised with the Mauser being the new Starting Pistol. It better shot grenades PaP'd though! And a New MG, Nice. So we've pretty much got a new bus with that tank then, eh?

You know we're gonna have supernatural Wonder Weapons on Origins, right? In that case would another Waffle really be necessary? And a build-able Wonder Weapon is something not seen before. Not sure how that would work but it's just a theory. Edit - Did some investigating and turns out the Ray Gun is the DG-1 (Die Glocke 1), The Wunderwaffle DG-2 and The ThunderGun being the DG-3, some of the Veteran Members here can fact-check me on that. So unless you want a build able Ray Gun we don't really need this build-able.

Not true. It says: So, looks like the PR actually confirmed that the robot is hostile. Hmm.. Well then I stand corrected. Thought I read somewhere we'd be helped by drones and tanks or something. However my Carrion statement is still logical so I'm half right..

The Carrion theory would be plausible if this wasn't the very first map, IIRC Edward eat the flesh of the undead in between Der Reise and Kino, which is why his quotes aren't cannibalistic in Shi No or Der Reise but are on Kino. And the Press Release details that the Metal Men (or Drones as described) are used for our benefit, not hostile like Brutus. No reason to be evading him.

It didn't even have to be a full map pack it could have been something like 2 of the 5 maps from a pack were zombies or heck 3 of 5. Would the MP side been pissed? Probably because they think they deserve everything and when things don't go their way they send death threats, but it would have been a change of pace and they would have gotten over it... eventually. ] Well Treyarch Standard is 4 MP 1 Zombies I doubt they'd change that up and go 3+2, exception being Rezurrection as I said. I doubt MP guys would be pissed, didn't see them complain about Rezurrection at all.. And woah woah don't be so harsh on the MP guys. That situation was completely blow outta proportion anyway, given that the Sniping community is a collection of young kids that attitude would be expected. Plus Vahn didn't give a shit anyway.

While what you're saying has a hint of truth to it, it's pretty cynical. Not everyone at Treyarch is a money-hungry leech. Sure they know MP > Zombies for the majority of players but they also know that the fanbase of zombies has increased significantly since WaW. We honestly don't even need a full Zombie map pack, the maps we've been given have been innovating enough and all we'd get is reskins with new weapons. And honestly I think one of the reasons we got Rezurrection is because the Hardened/Veteran Editions of BO1 Got the WaW Zombie maps remastered and they realized thye could make some cash of of making a DLC open for all. They did it with NT Zombies this game..

Direct proof from Treyarch? Yes, the Press Release named our four Characters as Takeo, Nikolai, Dempsey & Richtofen. None of the soldiers in NDU/Verrukt were Asian or wore a pilot's hat or whatever that is.

Richtofen was a doctor though, not a soldier at any point IIRC. Yes Nikolai, Dempsey and Tak were but not Edward.

Well my theory has been that not necessarily right from the starting room but that some areas have been cut off with gas. Like Moon or MW2's Wasteland? Moon in that they are only accessible with the masks on or Wasteland in that if you go there you'll die instantly?

Yeah well, apparently we're gonna be teaming with a group of soldiers, according to the press release. The group of soilders probably relates to the 4 Oh shit, I misread it then. Yeah, it does. Richtofen wasn't ever a soldier though, was he?

This is exactly what's gonna happen, isn't it? The starting room will be some room in the trenches and before we go outside we'll have to put on a mask for the Mustard Gas.

Yeah well, apparently we're gonna be teaming with a group of soldiers, according to the press release.
