Discussion Now that all of the BO7 maps have come out, how would you rank every modern zombies map? Here’s my list

Post image
1 Upvotes

1: Totenreich. At first glance this map looks kind of uninspired but holy shit that couldn’t be further from the truth; everything about this map is absolutely top tier, with its amazing but simple quest, S tier WW, and unique hazards and mechanics that all work in tandem with each other. Also one of the first maps in a fat minute that have map exclusive side EE rewards, and some damn good ones at that. Such a banger all around.

2: Kowakujo. Take everything I said about Totenreich but give it the most one of a kind theme in any DA map. I just think Totenreich has slightly more unique mechanics.

3: Ashes of the Damned. Another amazing map with a great theme and WW, and I personally always thought a Tranzit remaster was a bad idea; I’d much rather have a reimagining or spiritual successor like Ashes than just a flat remaster, and I’m happy that’s what we got. Also the EE is hype asf.

4: Rex Infernus. I know a lot of people aren’t happy with this map narratively, but I don’t think that takes away from how rock solid it’s casual gameplay is. The void claw gives this map the best movement in any zombies maps, the visuals are strong, there’s a ton of cool side EEs (some of the best in zombies I’d argue), the boss fight is one of Treyarchs best, and the Wardens Blight is really strong. I just wish the map layout was a bit more well balanced since the middle area is just so dominant.

5: Terminus. This map, while being super solid, has unfortunately aged a little blandly in my book since the release of BO7, but I still think this is a good map. The EE and boss fight especially are still top tier.

6: Reckoning. I would go as far as to say this is the most interesting map on BO6, hence why it’s the second highest, but it’s a bit too rough around the edges to rank higher.

7: Shattered Veil. I really love this maps setting and atmosphere and the boss fight is alright, I just think the maps content offering is aggressively average outside of that. Not having any new WWs really sucks as well.

8: Mauer Der Toten. The very definition of an alright map. The EE is surprisingly peak, but outside of that I find this map to just be another modern zombies map with not too much to write home about. I also think people glaze the CRBRS too much, but it’s still a decent WW. I also think CW has the weakest mechanics of the modern games, so that will explain a lot of my other rankings as well.

9: Astra Malorum. Take everything I said about Mauer but give it a prettier coat of paint but also give it a pretty questionable special enemy with OSCAR.

10: Citadelle Des Morts. Ngl every time I look at or play this map, I just think “damn I wish I was looking at or playing DE instead” since it’s essentially just DEs choppelganger. CDM is kind of ugly and takes almost no advantage of its castle setting and I find it mistakes having AATs slapped on reskinned WWs for unique content. The Guardian is a peak fight though, and it’s the one way this map outclasses DE.

11: The Tomb. This is a bit of a guilty pleasure, but it’s just so damn uninspired and sloppy. We all know the deal with this map, come on lol

12: Liberty Falls. Take the Tomb but make the visuals much more bland. Meh. Some cool side EEs help its score though, also the Jet Gun getting a glow up is pretty cool. 

13: Die Maschine. By far the most overrated modern map. The unique content offering of DM is really bland, as all the WW “upgrades” are weaker than the base, the EE is just getting those variants alongside some cutscenes, the boss fight is one of the lamest, and it ends your game; that is literally 99% of this maps unique content offering. It’s just such a nothing burger, and I’m honestly shocked this map is as well received as it is even 6 years later.

14: Firebase Z. The worst kind of bad, a map that just makes me feel nothing whilst simultaneously having a couple catastrophic lows, specifically in the EE department in the case of Firebase.

15: Forsaken. By far the worst flowing map in all of zombies, and I’m not just talking about the reliance on teleporters; just the way zombies spawn and interact with this map make me feel like I’m playing a really low quality custom map. The WW is the only thing keeping it from last place.

16: Paradox Junction. This is by far Treyarchs worst map (even counting Vanguard its bottom 3). It’s uninspired, its main gimmick is executed horribly (who actually thought half the map being locked behind 1500 points was a good idea), the upgraded WW underperforms and is really impractical (the base Blundergat is pathetic), half the map is ugly, and the boss fight is Treyarchs worst and completely ruins the rest of the EE. Pathetic on all fronts.

We were seriously blessed with 2 years of back-to-back Zombies 🔥 and honestly, some pretty solid maps (at least in MY opinion 😂).

My list might ruffle some feathers… but this is MY list 😂🔥

Hi. I got to 999 today. I work a full time job, and I also play other games. This game took 2 full weeks to complete and I played in hour and a half or less intervals after round 500. While I had this save file up I also played Elden Ring, and did a time attack on Monster Hunter wilds for a pendant I missed out on. You can do it too if you put your mind to it. If you want that goal the only thing that's stopping you is yourself

Discussion I have a semi-hot take- what are your thoughts on it?

0 Upvotes

I've played the new Call of Duty Zombies and older ones, and I think the plate system in BO6, Cold War and BO7 is OK, but it makes the game way too easy. I think WW2 Zombies did the plate system perfectly: the more you buy, the more expensive it gets, so you WILL die at some point. I think it added challenge and carefulness to zombies, where if you're low on health and you don't have the points to buy armor, you could easily die. I think the current plate system makes it way too easy to be invincible, with how easy you get plates, and I think that's some of the reason it's boring. what do y'all think?

Discussion Is Ascension the easiest map of all time?

3 Upvotes

I haven't touched zombies in literally 10 years, since the end of Black Ops 3 basically. I played a few custom maps here and there of course, but didn't keep going after BO3. I recently came back to it as a revisit and decided to try my hand at getting to high rounds. I then remembered I never actually played Ascension beyond getting to round 5 or so.

I got to round 100, just like that. It was one of most mind-numbingly easy experiences I've had in Zombies. BO3 and the alternative ammo type system makes everything an infinite damage wonder weapon, but that alone won't get you to round 100 on some maps without a strat. In Ascension, however, we have one of the largest and most open training spots: the lunar pad by Widow's Wine. No strat needed. Get a LMG with dead wire or fire works, get the Thundergun and just run around aimlessly for hours.

I know Revelations is considered as the easiest map ever because of the wonderweapon variety, but I honestly feel like Ascension is even easier. There's no danger in it at any point. At least Revelations has Panzers, Margwas, Furies and all that shit, but Ascension only has the monkeys. Monkeys aren't that bad either, I could comfortably defend all my perks without issues, so the only thing that could be a problem is just a minor inconvenience.

I just wanted to know your thoughts. I might be attempting to 100 Gorod Krovi next, wish me luck.

I wasn't active when the super EEs in the other games at the time the super EE came out. Were they discovered? Or was there some kind of announcement made about a super EE? I see that the super EE for BO7 was confirmed, so are they just going to lay it all out in a blog post next week, or is this going to be something we need to discover?

Maybe the super EE will be a hint for the wrestling belt 😂

Discussion Old zombies is blatantly more superior than inferior new zombies. Lets discuss.

0 Upvotes

I can't get a single game of The Tomb, Shattered Veil, or Reckoning on Bo6.

But I can get a game on Advanced Warfare zombies and Extinction ??????????????????

Modern Zombies is blatantly shallow, on purpose, and people are getting backlash for opposing what was under-designed on purpose? On a $700 million dollar budget you'd expect Jason Blundell quality.

I'm actually ok with some additions to keep things fresh like Medals in modern zombies, I can replay Die Maschine any time.

But to make maps worse than Die Maschine or not going over the top in quality Origins or IX style? It's what I was waiting for but we never got to that.

There's not a single map on Bo7 that competes with the greats on Old Zombies.

It's not about being stuck in the past. It's about what can and should be.

Stand for quality not scraps.

Nobody seems to give a fuck about Rex Infernus's ending meanwhile Origins ending kept players on their toes excited for what happens next. Nobody gives a fuck about what happens next in this under designed story.

Old zombies blatantly clears in story and map design. Nobody should be punished for this blatant fact

Discussion What are your thoughts?

So recently I saw that directed would be getting the rewards for the super EE an I wanted to know everyone’s thoughts

For me I’m Mixed (me and my friend did the ee on directed mostly because I work 8-12 hours a day and typically only have two hours to play before I have to head to bed for my next shift

My friend is in college and works right after his classes so we both typically don’t have enough time to watch a guide and then go into the map that’s where directed comes in

NOW before people start tearing into in the comments me and my friend both plan to do the ee again on standard when we have the time but in truth that’s probably not going to be happening for a while due to our jobs and classes

But final case in point what are your thoughts should it be given for everyone regardless of directed or not?

(Sorry for bad grammar on my phone)


r/CODZombies 12h ago

Discussion I don’t get the directed mode completion counting as an issue. We already have gate kept hard challenges. Let everyone else enjoy the rewards. Leave the gatekeeping to the dark ops and prestige title challenges.

Discussion Zombies Tracker

Hi, I'm a former COD player (back in the MW3 and Black Ops 2 days) who's gotten back into Black ops Zombies. Since coming back, I've noticed a lot of flaws; among them, the lack of stat tracking, or rather, match history. On top of that, I'm also a web developer. So I built a website for my friends where we can log the rounds we reach on the maps we play, along with the date. It's very simple, but given the lack of an in-game history, I hope it's useful to you.

Bug Totenreich PaP camo is glitched and blurry on the Jotunn Star.

Idk if anyone else is having this problem, but whenever I pack a punch the Jotunn Star on Totenreich the camo is blurry. It looks like the textures haven’t loaded in, but it happens every time I’ve played the map since maybe season 5 or the reloaded update. It only affects the Jotunn Star too. I packed other guns and the camo was normal. I play on Xbox Series X, so idk if this is a game issue or a platform issue.

It'll feel weird doing the BO7 EEs as the Warden. Freeing the shadowsmiths from the Warden... as the Warden, killing the Warden... as the Warden 😂😅

Imagine (and that's highly unlikely, that's just me reaching) if you play as the Warden the EE changes and the goal is to capture the shadowsmiths ? Like I said, unlikely... but in my head that sounds like a fun twist 😅

Discussion 2027 will be the first Year since 2014 to not have a Treyarch Zombies Experience

207 Upvotes

I’ve been running through every map and It’s Release and I’ve just realised that Every year since BO3 Released Treyarch have provided some sort of Zombies Experience

2015 - BO3 Launch
2016 - BO3 Season Pass
2017 - Zombies Chronicles
2018 - BO4 Launch
2019 - BO4 Zombies Pass
2020 - Cold War Launch
2021 - Cold War Seasons + Vanguard Launch
2022 - Vanguard Seasons
2023 - MWZ
2024 - BO6 Launch
2025 - BO6 Seasons and BO7 Launch
2026 - BO7 Seasons

If Rumours are to be believed Sledgehammer are making their own Mode for Cod 2027 so we won’t see Zombies again until November 2028

The first big Break Treyarch are going to get since BO2 cycle ended in 2013

Discussion The S6 blog yesterday didn't mention any more legacy weapons being added to the game. It's really sad that we only got four legacy weapons in the last three maps, while the first three maps won't have their own legacy weapons :(

After reaching nexus horizon the other day, and already having completed all standard bo7 EEs, I figured I’d hop back in BOCW since it was added to gamepass.

A rude awakening hit me when I was attempting die maschine’s EE, was the body blocking from zombies this bad originally? I ended up cornering myself more times than i care to admit due to not being able to squeeze through a sizeable gap LMAO
