The ONE Full Release

Update:

You can now download a high resolution version of "The One" on the main Treyarch website!

The One

I should point out that this version is NOT what has been out there recently...those were either game rips (who knows by which process) or were from the video.

This is a fully mastered high quality version mixed for listening outside of the game.

Enjoy!

Map Pack #3 Revealed

So Map Pack 3 has been announced and is on its way to you! We're all really excited about it---some of my favorite MP maps find their way into this map pack...and of course, Der Riese...or "The Giant".

A lot of you guessed correctly that you may be fighting the zombie hordes off at Der Riese! So congrats to those who figured it out.

The map pack is crammed with really cool features and of course will expand on the back story in Der Riese.

Stay tuned for more details!

Nazi Zombie Backstory

Hey everyone...glad you're all so involved (and the others in the community)with the story behind Nazi Zombies. Its been pretty rewarding for all of us to see you guys dive into the back story and these characters the way that you have.

Most of our clues were buried in the maps, or were difficult to trigger. Some were just so obscure (like the Lullaby) that we thought no one would notice.

But you did.

So I'm convinced that you guys can figure out the relevance of these things simply because you noticed them or triggered them in the first place. Obviously, it resonates with you enough to realize it’s part of something bigger.

I've recievd a new list of storyline questions recently that I'm compelled to answer...or not answer, as the case may be. Thanks to "Kolton" for sending these questions!

Question: "Richtofen created the Wunnderwaffe DG-2 and is run by element 115"

Answer: Richtofen seems to think so, doesn't he?

Question: "DG stands for Die Glocke or, The Bell a missing piece of the secret German weaponry experiments"

Answer: Seems like a reasonable assumption based on the evidence.

Question: "Peter cannot be the hanging man due to the transmitions"

Answer: Why not? If someone left a message on your answering machine but you were dead in the room next door, it wouldn't mean that the message wasn't intended for you...


Question: "The zombies are created by a disease caused by 115"

Answer: I'm not really sure about that. Its sounds pretty stereotypical…just like our characters 

Question: "The meteor electricity has something to do with the dogs appearance."

Answer: Why would a meteor be spewing electricity? Perhaps it only looks to you like electricity.

Question: "Einstein will have something to do with the Wunderwaffe."

Answer: I would imagine any scientists doing research on things like Element 115 or the Meteor may or may not refer to some of his papers and\or wish to consult with someone like him. As to whether he was directly involved, I don't think there is evidence to support that.

Question: "Die Glocke was linked with time travel."

Answer: According to wikipedia, yes.

Question: "Why are four different factions working together?"

Answer: First off, there is no evidence to suggest that everyone is working together, other than these four lovable characters. Secondly, if a zombie apocalypse happened, don't you think we could put our differences aside for survival?

Question: "Why does Dempsey like Takeo but not Nikolai seeing how Russians are his ally and Japan his enemy?"

Answer: Well, I don't think the war would matter much if its four of you against the zombie horde. (See above)

If I'm thinking like Dempsey, I gotta think he respects the good honorable qualities of Takeo, but isn't into the laziness of Nikolai. I think, if you listen closely, he's fairly ambivalent about Nikolai...but he really doesn't like Richtofan.

Each character seems to have someone they like, and someone they don't...just like all of you who are reading this blog :)

Question: "Does the quick revive tasting like fish have any meaning?"

Answer: Not really, but it does two things: 1) you can imagine what it tastes like, and 2) its a little comic relief since Takeo actually likes it!

Good times!
