4 new playable characters?

[LiamFTWinter]

Well, the escalation map pack just got confirmed!

In the article "4 new playable zombies characters" are confirmed.

So, could the article about the women that plays buffy the vampire slayer and the others playing zombies characters be true?

Get speculating guys!

Man idk if i like that their are new zombie people. :?

[XxJason LivesxX]

I really don't mind new playable characters. Especially if Robert Englund and Danny Trejo are part of it. I could see Englund playing the Richtophenesque "handler" to the new group. This could be the gap filler we are looking for regarding the Zombie storyline. Cause lets face it we're missing some crucial info on the main 4's end so maybe a new group and setting can shed some light on this and put it in new perspective

bump!

[GrizzBeardKing]

Sarah Michelle Gellar? *Boner quickly rises*

[Powerslave723]

Sarah Michelle Gellar? *Boner quickly rises*

[Phillips455]

No Tank and crew = Spin off type map that everyone will like the least and comlain about how its not part of the story line

so this is VERY upsetting new, I hope mp3 will bring the originals back....

[thegrix]

It better be Peter, Sophia, Maxis and Samantha. :lol:

[Strwrsbob]

^lol

The title Is "Escalation", So, I assume there could well still be 2 more maps after this one. I think it will be a fun spin off, but I hope we get another map pack in July, then another in late August/Early september to round it out.

[LiamFTWinter]

My opinion is that this map is somewhat of a filler, with very subtle hints towards the big story, kinda like five, with the ray guns and death machines lying around the place.

[Lrgx(Slayer)Ragemode]

So it is confirmed that it isn't going to be the main people?

And, if it is so that sucks, i was kinda getting used to the silent yet killer takeo, the crazy, suicidal yet nice appearance doctor, the slaying american , and the drunken russian

[SwitchBlade]

Maybe 8 player zombiezz? jk.

[Lrgx(Slayer)Ragemode]

Maybe 8 player zombiezz? jk.

I'd actually like more people playing zombies.. 8 is too much, but i can see us gradually get to it... I think they should add 1 more character every 2 or so map packs i donno...

or just a marine( doesn't have to be a character), I'd love playing with 6 people

Thats what people thought when Map packs were coming out for WaW, but it didnt happen. *weeps*

Hopefully we do see this happen, about four map packs. Im wishing that Treyarch would release two zombie maps, that would justify the price on them, who agrees? . . . Plus, this might be the end game for Zombies according to some. :cry:

I must thank you LiamFTWinter for posting out article on here and on your video, it's much appreciated!!

I too would love to see more map packs, but I don't think they've given themselves enough time. If they were going to put out 4 they would of had to have released First Strike a month earlier. As it is now MP4 would be released alongside whatever COD releases in November and thats why Kino was scrapped for W@W

I don't think zombies is going to end any time soon. As a matter of fact I'd be willing to bet we'll be seeing a stand alone Zombie game come out in the next few years. maybe even with 3Arc's next entry.

[RedDeadRiot]

Just because there are new players doesn't mean it's a spinoff? I was getting kinda bored of the characters anyways. Relax guys, they know we want the story.

Ye who have little faith in 3arc shalt not have zombies!

"A unique new zombies experience"

Remember when they tried that, and this happened.

And this.

AND NOBODY LIKED EITHER OF THOSE THINGS.

As long as its not...

Buffy the vampire slayer

Or

Freddy Kruger

Im fine!

Ok maybe Buffy is ok.

That's what I'm thinking about Call of the Dead, it may end up being the Zombies' game title, and it may be a game you can download on PSN and Xbox Live.That's my thought though. Perhaps it'll be released during the summer of 2012?

They have so much to cover and to end it with just one map pack left? Nah, they can't do that to us, at least they shouldn't. I hope these new characters don't go too out of hand, they better not introduce vampires. I swear if they do, i'll . . . :evil:

[Jeager1999]

I just Hope that they give those who didn't buy the Prestige or Hardened Edition a chance to Buy the Four Classic Maps. You Know?

In fact, a Separate DLC should be made for Zombies all together. They can have one DLC for Five Multiplayer Maps and then have a DLC for maybe two or three Zombie Maps. That would keep us busy.

[xMiniM1]

I love Buffy/Sarah Michelle Gellar/Freddy/Robert, BUT I LOVE THE WaW STORYLINE MORE, DAMMIT!

Treyarch are such damn teases when it comes to easter eggs. ;-(

I'm not happy that treyarch/ activision have comercialised my beloved zombies, I mean, fricking buffy?

I know females slay, but we don't need a lady slayer ! Oh the teabags and banter that are coming...

However, i trust treyarch know what they are doing?

They have just selected 4 credible actors to play new characters.. Hey this could be the prequal map we need to tie up all loose ends, and slaying as maxis, Sam , Peter and another would be epic...

We also havnt considered the possibility that activison want to milk the zombie cow and make a movie? Least now they have credible actors...

Dear god this is gonna be a waste of money, I can sense it.

i have a few friends that think 5 is the best zombie map. i for 1 think that Nixon is probably the best playable zombie character there is (i still love Nikolai tho)

but if everything stayed the same as the original zombies then it would get boring (remember nacht der untoten). each map they have made they have added elements to the game mode (some are awesome others just... different) i am embracing the change.
