I'm not quite happy with the all new characters. :oops:

But I guess it could turn up alright.

The press release says that the new Zombies map will feature all NEW playable characters.... interesting.

Remember this??

Danny Trejo played “Machete” in the hit film of the same name.

Robert Englund played the original Freddy Kruger in the Nightmare on Elm Street.

Sarah Michelle Gellar played “Buffy” the vampire slayer in the TV series.

Michael Rooker, played Merle Dixon in Season One of “The Walking Dead”

please no. just no

[INeedToKnowTheSecret]

Did anyone notice that the official name for the zombie map is not listed in that ??????????

[thegrix]

"In Multiplayer, battle it out in Hotel, on the roof of a Cuban luxury hotel and casino against the vivid backdrop of old Havana; Convoy delivers intense, close-quarters combat at the scene of an ambushed US military convoy; Zoo takes you on a wild ride in an abandoned Soviet Russian Zoo, with danger at every turn; Stockpile pits players in a remote Russian farm town housing secret WMD facilities." Amazing!

But... ""Escalation" features a unique Zombies experience." I'm kind of worried, but 3arc will pull it off! :P

[SwitchBlade]

If I am reading this correctly IGN confirms the map map is real and the maps are named: Zoo, Convoy, Stockpile, Hotel, and Call of Dead.

"And I don't want to spoil any surprises for Zombies fans, but Call of the Dead takes it to a whole new level."

- Treyarch Studio Head, Mark Lamia.

EDIT: "For Zombies fans, "Escalation" features a unique Zombies experience. We can't wait to take the wraps off of our new Zombies map, Call of the Dead, a very special creation for all Zombies fans."

It says "a very special creation" which makes me wonder, hopefully not a DOA style but maybe not the classic board up windows, and kill zombies style. I'm curious to what there doing that's so unique. I pray that it's nothing so unique that it ruins the map pack, I also don't know if I am up for a new objective completely. They best release some info. fast!

I do remember that now. Sounds more like a Left 4 Dead expansion than it does Nazi Zombies. Call me sexist, but I don't want to play as a girl character. I prefer to play as characters that I can relate to in some way.

[PuLsExEdGeZ]

Oh boy, if it's like most fillers introducing four new characters, to do some explaining on the original four, then I can only see two logical endings for the new four. one is that they will learn a horrible secret if the group (even though they never met) which will without a doubt shed a big light on the original four and then the new four will be over runned and killed Or. We learn something new and we never he from the new four again. Expect a nice trailer hopefully showing us the new characters like they did with the ahi no Nima trailer. iPod touch texting is hard.

[Lrgx(Slayer)Ragemode]

Does any one think they are just gonna be "added?" or.... REPLACED?????

I mean i know the doctor is too important to die now.. maybe dempsey too... and nikolai but takeo is on a death roll. So what if they get replaced? Like, they meet their doom and only maybe the doctor and dempsey escape ( of course with a cinematic). Any takes on this?

I think the name Call of the Dead fits. Kino der Toten is Theatre of the Dead and Nacht der Untoten is Night of the Dead so I think it works.

[cjdog23]

so your saying we should have it by july? complete BULL SH*T activision, you have a one month exculisivity with 360, so what? there is NO excuse for making us PC players wait ANOTHER month on top of that. how is it that the PS3 map pack was nearly 2gb on my friends PS3 but it was barely 400MB for PC..?

[Zomber Hunter]

Heard talk of something in the lower left corner, just took a closer look at the pic, nothing special there. It seems like either ice or steel, but nothing hidden. All classified print seems way too small to contain any actual important text, treyarch im assuming put it in as a touch Also, i dont think the multiplayer maps have any effect/theme on the zombie map, as we saw in first strike, so anything is game, which is very good. Favorite ideas: 1 is moon, 2 is area 51, 3 is a firing range based map. /color]Also, i dont think the multiplayer maps have any effect/theme on the zombie map, as we saw in first strike, so anything is game, which is very good.

Guys, I think I found out what the name for the zombie map is. I went to Google translator and typed in "Call Of The Dead" from English into German.

And guess what it said it was in German?

Aufruf der Toten

Sound familiar? (Nacht der Untoten, Kino der Toten).

I don't know about you guys, but i think it seems pretty legit.

WOW THATS SO WIERD! Its almost as if "of the dead" translates to "der Toten" every single time! Seriously! I tried it about 6 times!!!

[latt81]

I really really hope they don't f*@k this up...

I have really gotten in to Zombies at the minute, for some reason it never appealed to me when playing WAW, but now I don't play anything but Zombies and I'm really looking forward to a new map.

It would be nice if they included a new run of the mill Zombies map for us to play in case Call of the Dead is a flop.

I get nervous when games companies start to alter a tried and tested platform. Yeah its good to spice things up a little to keep interest up, but I'm not sure Zombies needed it just yet.

Also I think we can stop taking guesses at what the map is called, we've pretty much established its 'Call of the Dead' (personally I think its a crap title) as thats what everywhere is calling it, why are we trying to translate it? Its an English title just like Ascension.

This finally confirms Call of the Dead as the title for the new zombie map.

[LUDRICOUSZ]

This finally confirms Call of the Dead as the title for the new zombie map.

Yep you're right. but still it's a weird title. maybe the title is irrelevant this time (wich would be weird)? and wanted to write it like "Call of duty"? but instead of 'duty' they wrote 'the dead'. i don't know i'm thinking and writing at the same time.

That's my thought.

[SwitchBlade]

I personally don't think "call of the dead" is very creative. Its just so... Bland in a sense.

[Hardline Pro]

I honestly couldn't care less about the name. Is there any info about the new characters out there?

[DinomiteD]

Looks sick but the zombie map sounds lame

I hope it's not like dead ops though hopefully it won't be

[Technicuddle]

I hope i can shoot zebras in zoo

New Perk: Tiger Blood

BYE BYE!!

[Sutinen]

Okay, it is offical. I didnt realize it until now after visiting black ops website. :D

[DeadlyZombiesXD]

Where it says 'Survive' did you notice there is like a grey line?.. Probably covering up some words because why else would they put random grey lines?.

My vocabulary is really bad xD So i didnt know what else to call it other than grey lines. :L

There are GRAY LINES in every Text, not just the Zombie Map. I'm guessing these are not the names of the Maps, they might release the names at a later time.

Simply Put, The Maps may not be called ZOO, CONVOY, STOCKPILE, HOTEL, or CALL OF THE DEAD
