Nuketown Zombies - 8-bit Pareidolia EE song

Does anyone know how to activate the 8-bit Pareidolia song on Nuketown Zombies?

COD wikia says you need to shoot all the heads off the mannequins to activate the song. But ya know it's the wikia, so take that info with a grain of salt.

Every time I play Nuketown Zombies, I make a point to take out every mannequin I see. However I've never been able to activate the song. Am I missing a mannequin, or is this not the activation switch?

The locations of the mannequins rotates every game, just like the perk machines. So it makes me think there is something more to them than simply being destructible environmental items. The fact that the mannequins have been EE's in the original Nuketown as well as Nuketown 2025 only furthers my suspicion.

Way2g00 and I once heard this song play in a 4-player game. So I know it exists. The song activated when one of the randoms in our group was shooting his PAP'd Warmachine in random directions all over the map. I'm guessing he hit something that activated the song. Could it be a mannequin is located outside of the map that I had missed?

If anyone knows for sure how to activate the 8-bit Pareidolia song on Nuketown Zombies, then please let us know....

What round did you get to? I heard somewhere that it just plays when you get to a certain round.

I, too, have tried to shoot off the heads of all mannequins, but like you I have not been able to get the song to play this way.

If I remember right, it activated between rounds too.

So maybe round number had something to do with it?

I remember it happened around round 30 or so. Definitely sometime after round 25, and we ended the game on round 31. So hopefully that helps gauge when it happens.

When it played for us I know we hadn't made it to round 30. I'm not quite sure if we even got to round 25 that game. It's tough for me to say if it started in between rounds, though... it kind of faded in, so I know it was during a round that we noticed it, but it could have actually started in between the rounds. Not sure.

Edit- I know I was trying to get the heads off of the Mannequins during that game, but I hadn't shot at any in the past few minutes before it started. All I can remember is that the song played, and shortly after that the PaP machine dropped... so it had to have been relatively early rounds?

---Nevermind, the post above must have been posted while I was typing. Huh. One of us must have hit the last one with a stray bullet or something while fighting zombies. Guess that solves that.

Thanks for the vid LiamFTW. I've been searching all over youtube for a vid, and turned up nothing.

I think I've been missing the one on the ground at [1]. There's usually one up high in the same spot. I'm probably looking up high, while I should be looking at my feet.

Not sure if I've been hitting the one in the car at [1]

And I'm for sure I never found that mannequin between the rubble and house by the stairs of the yellow house at [1].

Wow, that's an easter egg hunt
