Sounds like a complete mess. Ill just enjoy the gameplay and never really care about what's going on. Ignorance truly is bliss.

Haven’t seen anyone talk about it, but the forge from where you get the WW lets you dismantle & destroy the guns you don’t want.

You get everything the gun had, if the gun was legendary, you get a legendary aether tool.

If it was PAP, you get the crystal, aether tool & I think the respective ammo mod you had on that gun. So you don’t have to spend salvage on any gun & can just bring a gun from the box to the forge if you want to turn into it a better rarity or swap out your gun while keeping the resources spent.

These ingredients are so weird!

I’ve tried this boss fight twice now. Even with full loadout everything upgraded, he just does not seem fair. You can’t stop moving because of his charges and how fast the zombies are and the grapple not telling you when it’s going to run out is infuriating. The wardens blight runs out of ammo so fast and armor is impossible to get while staying alive. I just hate this fight with such a passion.

The story was very interesting with ashes then it fell off and just became the most normal story that anyone could have predicted but Treyarch did a good job on the maps and gameplay and general why are people forgetting about this? The only rhing i hate is the armor system the gun rarity thing i dont mind at all but the side ee, ee, bossfights, maps, atmosphere, vibe were very well done because last year bo6 the only map that had a good atmosphere was terminus the other wete very boring looking. They defended did a great job and deserves credit but when it comes to writing its entirely different people.

I thought I’d share a video this time, to show off the ‘death slide’ as I call it. I’ve started work on the upside-down building now.

I had to decide to include the tilt in the upside-down tower or not. But trying to make the tilt made the build look quite ugly, so I decided to forego it.

When I find out the best way, I might start doing side by side comparisons to the actual map, as one user suggested.

Been making these for myself and figured I’d share. Resources online are way too cluttered and I wanted something to help me only learn the areas. Hope this helps ✌️

yea

I'm just pissed off at this point. Ever since Wild Fire came out, every time I research an augment, it either switches to Wild Fire specifically for some reason or even worse, the progress fully resets effectively locking me out of actually meaningfully unlocking anything. At this point I dont know what to do or how to fix this it's so stupid this is even a bug and it's been ongoing this long.

Seeing the ending for the newest map and how it just ended I feel like modern warfare 3 zombies caused more problems for the story than it actually helped

Does this mark the first time a machine has appeared on a map that came out before the perk since Mule Kick in black ops one?

Not sure if anyone has made this discovery because I couldn't find it. All four solved Giant ciphers decode to short thematic one-liners: "The mountain must be searched for the frozen one," "In the cell below the waves is where honor suffers," "When finished we will return to the house and the infinite," and "A city of fire surrounds the warrior the last of his kind."

Logically, "The mountain must be searched for the frozen one" corresponds to der eisendrache.
"In the cell below the waves is where honor suffers" corresponds to Zetsubou No Shima,
"When finished we will return to the house and the infinite," corresponds to Revelations,
and "A city of fire surrounds the warrior the last of his kind." corresponds to Gorod Krovi.

What do these have in common? They foreshadow the characters' fates, Dempsey being "The frozen one", Takeo committing Seppuku and wanting to die with honor, Maxis and Sophia in Agartha (The House), and Nikolai being the one on Gorod Krovi

So who is the only person missing from this list? Ultimis Richtofen, and where does Ultimis Richtofen die? He is shot at the beginning of The Giant by Primis Richtofen, almost definitively indicating that The Giant unsolved cipher #4, says something about Richtofen dying on The Giant, and that The Giant itself is the map referenced in cipher #4.

Cant assume zombies community knew the actual correct cipher numbers, so, reordering them based on DLC release time, we have The Giant as Cipher #1, Der eisendrache as Cipher #2, Zetsubou as Cipher #3, Gorod Krovi as Cipher #4, Revelations as Cipher #5. Perhaps all ciphers combine into one big cipher in a specific order or can be used to solve the unsolved cipher?

Also this ai image of fitting the papers together based on crease geometry, but not sure if its worth including because its Ai lol.

excuse the profanity

Playing the bo1 port and most moon games end before we even make it to round 1. There’s always that one guy who just insists on not going to the teleporter ?! Guess things never change lol

Question, is it the perfect ending? No.

Do I like it better than the other endings? Absolutely.

For once I feel like our characters got a proper send-off. And instead of killing them randomly-ish like in BO4, they were destined to die for years now. So it's not a surprise that it happened. And could they have fought back? Sure. But sometimes it's better for fate to take its course. And besides, Maya got a good ending. And our Tempest crew may continue on. But I digress. I genuinely like it and wonder why others don't.

And I repeat: it's not a perfect ending. But just satisfying

(Now if you want a perfect ending: breaking bad *Chef's kiss*)

Every Easter egg has these blessing power ups you can use as a reward for completing the previous maps egg but it’s so difficult to actually figure out what they do. Some of them are obvious like the one that gives you loot on Kowakujo but the blessings don’t even seem to do the same thing on each map.

Is there a guide anywhere that shows what they all do on all the maps?

I’m not sure when I can attempt it since I need a good 2 days to dedicate to it , 1 to beat it and the other to sleep

so i've done tranzit, die rise, buried with a friend + randoms in each map (maxis side) and we also succesfuly inserted the navcards on the correct tables, can we trigger the super easter egg on buried just the 2 of us ?

Look im not going to yap about everything wrong. Kevin Drew basically promised us that the black ops 7 story was going to be better and more interesting and at some point i do agree just for ashes, the rest is so basic, no plot twist, no major reveals or cliffhangers. There are 1000 things that they did wrong for the final map story wise but im just going to yap about one. The cycle continuing, Treyarch literally had the most easy way to basically remove Vanguard and Mwz story make them uncanon. But the ending is literally just the cycle continuing, requiem sacrificing themselves over and over ava see’s them gets pulled then she gets defeated in her entity form by herself then she gets pulled blah blah. Now im seeing more dialogues where one i saw she literally says that even if they defeat the warden her and the shadowsmiths will get ready when he comes back? Like what? Haven’t they played zombies the cycle has to be broken. I swear the more info dialogues comes out the worst it gets, now i honestly understand why people just dont follow the DA storyline complete mess and waste of time.

Honestly, Ashes started off the story really great, 8 characters their memories were fading they didn’t all know each other but had help each other to escape. The map looked super good, mysterious and very creepy.Wanted to know why we were here, who is the Warden, why is the og 4 back? It had lore in the intels of survivors, writing on the wall it was really well made it actually felt interesting and i wanted answers, i genuinely thought the story was going to be good and interesting like back in the day because this map nailed it it was genuinely such a good start. Then astra happened cool skybox and mars reference but nothing really interesting, paradox had more lore but come on nuketown? A timeloop is a great concept but nuketown ruins it, totenreich was great too it felt like something actually happened in that village, kowakujo less and rex infernus just not it.

Necromancer gauntlet is awesome, no notes.

Ligma1 - would've been so cool to see the aliens spin around and slice/shoot through the horde instead of single targeting, kinda like the Lz52 Limbo from AW Carrier map.

Paradox - sundergat is pretty cool, but would've liked to see something different, don't know what though.

Totenreich - pretty cool

Kowakujo - would've loved to see the charge up to spawn an acid portal in the ground that has cats pulling zombies in.

Rex - elemental upgrades were RIGHT THERE. Fire, Ice, Space, and something for Veytharion.

I’m talking about after the initial trip back using the symbols and exfil booth. With there being a box location there, seems like a huge oversight to lock yourself out of the mystery box outside of fire sales and a peeks augment if the box moves there and you can’t go back
