Mauer der Toten predictions

[anonymous]

Within a couple of weeks we will be introduced to a brand new Zombies map - Mauer der Toten - the name pretty much confirming it's location: The Berlin Wall of the Dead. Our boy @PINNAZ made some wild predictions on the Discord.

 

In the Campaign, our encounter with the Berlin Wall was via a so-called 'Ghost Station'. The West-Berlin U-bahn, the underground metro, went from North to South passing through tunnels underneath East-Berlin. As the city was divided with the wall, the old metro stations in East-Berlin were closed for public and the West-Berlin metro would from now on not stop there. Being unused and abandoned for many years, these stations fell into disrepair setting a perfect eerie atmosphere for a zombies map.

 

The image above is the U-bahn map found in the campaign, the Berlin wall indicated with the bright grey lines. If the developers were to re-use the Ghost Station we see in campaign, this is the Weinmeisterstrasse station. Now look where that U-bahn line ends...

 

The Berlin neighborhood of Wittenau, known for the Wittenau Sanatorium which is to us also known as Verrückt. The train station is right in front of the gates of the asylum.

 

Of course these are mere speculations, but how cool would it be if Verrückt would be accesible in Mauer der Toten? Kino der Toten has also been a popular suspect of appearing in the map, due to its close proximity to the Wall. Would Mauer der Toten be a map consisting of various areas (Kino, Verrückt), connected via ghost stations and a metro line? Since Warzone has an underground metro in it, the developers wouldn't be too unfamiliar with the concept. What do you think (and hope)? Leave a comment.

Most definitely.  Hey they did it with Revelations to round off BO3 zombies. Will 'Der Riese' be resurrected??

Yeah, good notion on how Revelations did the same! As for Der Riese, it is officially located in Southwestern Poland rather than Berlin, so I guess it won't make an appear in Mauer der Toten. In the CW Campaign, we have encountered the model of the Kino chandeliers and the Verrückt fountain, so these could be easily be re-used. 

 

I'm also interested in the backstory of the Berlin location. Die Maschine was ground zero for the Dark Aether intrude into our realm, Firebase Z and Outbreak were mere "random" Dark Aether infection sites that were subsequently used as research facilities for Omega Group. But how about Berlin? I doubt there will be a secret research station in the middle of a large city populated by both NATO and Warsaw Pact troops. How did the outbreak here begun, or was it also a mere accidental dimensional rift?

Well, part of the Die Mashine map is from 'Nacht' which is stated as "where it all began"  and this kind of merges the Germany-now-Poland issue, (Nacht being in German occupied wartime, which became part of Poland post war) so maybe that leaves options for Der Reise...? And of course following on from Nacht is Verruck & Kino,  (as in Germany-based maps) and with Die Mashine being the location of Projekt Endstation, the source of the breach into the dark Aether & cause of global outbreak zones, it leaves the door (or portal) open to 'revisiting' multiple maps! This new map is set a year after Omega reopened the breach at Endstation. The Wittenau asylum in Berlin has to be revisited, so much has happened there throughout the zombies story line

Incidentally, the u-bahn line wasn't extended up to Wittenau until 1994... in 1984 (when Mauer is set) the line ended at Osloer Strabe. (Yes I'm a mind full of pointless knowledge!) But hey, that's what 'freedom of artistic licence' is for! (along with time portals of course )

Would be cool to see Verruckt, even if it is an out of bounds area.
But yeah I think the metro system could be a really cool feature, almost reminds me of shadows of evil tram system but underground. 

In terms of the story, I think the significance of this map will be the Nazi army breaking out from the Dark Aether.
It's thematically fitting to have that take place in Berlin, and the recent Intel has been teasing it pretty strongly.

Yeah, we got old intel that directs at the Nazi scientists retreating to "Germania" which was Hitler's futuristic dream of what Berlin would become. Maybe Germania is a Nazi city located at Berlin, but at the 'other side'? Also curious what role the Inversion Rockets will play.

Yeah same here. We're at a really great point in the story right now.
It feels like all of these threads they have started since Die Machine are about to converge, 
I'm so hyped!
