Huh, that's a cool way of revealing it. I hope they draw from 80's horror films for inspiration on what types of enemies to include and other locations to move to.
I don't know, I guess I was expecting them to push the space theme and gameplay elements more to add their own original twist to the mode instead of stick with the Treyarch formula.

Yeah definitely got a generic 80's high school protagonist vibe from that guy.

Huh, something from the IW side of things I'm actually digging.
Who'd a thunk it?

I'm still kinda disappointed that 3 studios are working on 3 different CoD franchises and all of them have to do zombies?
Blame the fans. There was outcry for it in AW and they caved and added it in the 1st DLC, supposedly.

This was my first thought. Was really hoping for spec ops missions and survival from MW2/3. Zombies are so played out.

Looks cool, wish I was into the whole CoD zombies thing though. Never could get into it

Eh...trying too hard with the 80's pandering here. Rubs me the wrong way to see a FPS juggernaut like COD jump on this nostalgia bandwagon.
Wait do we have a conformation on the casting?

Yea, they really showed their asses with aw. Should've been robots but they just had to have zombies.
Hopefully this'll be 6 player co op akin to squads. That'd would get my interested piqued, as we definitely need more co op modes with 6+ players.
Same, it always get boring quick for me. I'm just not a fan of horde type modes.
I hope it's true.

I mean I'd be fine if they took a spin on it. Maybe 32 player PvP zombies? Or maybe 8 player co-op open world zombies?
Just something different from Treyarch zombies.
They had a few different PVP zombie modes in Black Ops II. One of which was a PVP 4v4 mode where you were in competition to survive.
One could only assume the reasons those modes didn't survive was they weren't popular enough, despite Grief mode being plenty fun.
Open world would be fine, but if they do I really hope we can get away from Deep Silver-esque zombie game. And something better than Tranzit.

They took the look out of "Zombies Ate My Neighbors", complete with the two kids.
The only reason I'd even tie this sentiment is because of the Ressurection map pack that brought all the old maps with the added 3 guns perk, as well as having some "okayish" original maps alongside dead-ops.
W@W still has the best maps and weapons though, and the performance is better than in the remakes (the updated engine chugs on Shi no numa really bad).
Ultimetely, I feel safe in saying nothing really beats the original zombies. I think there was some interesting ideas like Transit mode that could have gone places, but they never really bothered (why was there no transit DLC?) and I think the story 'lore' fucked with them giving original settings (the overworld having to be burnt and ashy forevermore, bleck).
edit: Also, gimmick maps suck. Nobody wants a big super hard to kill/unkillable enemy chasing you constantly. Running around the maps is the easiest strategy and it's boring. Let players turtle and stop discouraging it since it epitomed on the Der Reise catwalk.
Yeah, the 80s retro aesthetic would've meshed super well with aliens

No lie, if an entire CoD game was released with this aesthetic I'd buy it.

They should've sent it here. I still have my VHS tape hooked up.
Just want the trailer to hit already. So far, I'm really digging the theme IW is going for.
What the fuck
Treyarch zombies are already hard enough
Yeah, that's not exactly a selling point for me anymore. One of the things I preferred in extinction is that you could actually beat the levels, and through a logical process.
Lol! That's what I said.
I'm too deep into Treyarch's story and considering this is the finale of it all, in down to finish them. But by the time IW Zombies comes out I won't have the time nor energy to do them at this point.
I'm going to be burned out on zombies and won't want to play it anymore in future games if every CoD game has it. I liked it better when it was a Treyarch thing. It was something to look forward to. I'll give it a shot anyway. Hopefully it's not too complicated like some of Treyarch's maps.
I'm still pissed that they got rid of Extinction, though. That was by far the best thing about Ghosts. I had so much fun playing that with friends. That's what I mean... it was just a nice change of pace from playing zombies in other CoD games. Now it's just... more zombies. They have to throw actors and silly themes at us to keep us amused with it at this point.

I just wanted spec ops missions in the style of MW2 back. Never enjoyed the zombie game mode.
