Thank you as always for clicking on this video! I've made some adjustments to my audio setup this time around and started recording in 2K. Let me know what you think :)
bro i been wanting someone to make a video like this for a while, cause when people tell the lore of COD zombies they never talk about where the maps fit in and what actually happens during the easter egg.
Me. I like to see how he describes it from his perspective & he does a good job at making it sound just normal. Like I’m talking to one of my guys or sum
52:03 this is the same convo that happens on DE in bo3. LOVE that they flipped the original story like that, and how their convo is almost identical, but is different cos of the events and fractures that followed the giant map
Ive heard it a million times but i love hearing from different people. I love it when creators just make stuff and dont worry if theres already many high view videos on this stuff
Best thing about these videos is that you mostly don't consider stuff that's revealed (or created) in future games, explaining the story as it was at the time. Story lost it's charm for me after BO2 with the apothicon and everything being actually done by the will of some lovecraftian creatures
So at 23:00 with the dials and the code, I'm not sure if it is based on any real numeral system, but you can tell that C repesents 10, I represents 5, and a dot represents 1. Just like roman numerals but with different symbols
I remember being in the Xbox Party listening to all my friends play Moon while it was “region locked” for me 😭😭 WaW and BO1 were heavily censored in Japan smh
so this "tunnel" that Maxis was in is the crazy place from origins. Basically he was randomly teleported there and it was there that he learned the ability to merge with electricity (which will be useful later on on bo2). Essentially, when he killed himself he didn't actually die he just sort of linked with the station's electricity and waited for his chance to stop Richtofen i.e what happened in the map "moon."
People like these make me wanna make content. Maybe not eveythings 150 percent right but what draws me to these videos is the experience of the poster.
Great video series! I started watching, because I've been itching to play zombies since bo6 is coming soon, and Microsoft locked my old Xbox account on which I'd purchase the games. 😕 Hundreds of dollars wasted ig, but thankfully watching these videos is somewhat of a substitute for me like I'm replaying them from the beginning all over again. So thank you! You really are awesome lol
No the Vrill and the Apothicons aren't the same, the Vrill and the Keepers are, any Keepers you fight in Bo3 are considered corrupted by the Apothicons, thats why they're not trying to help, but on Revelations there is a helpful Keeper, thats just a normal one not corrupted
Great video my friend. I love your channel! I’ve commented before about how you just seem so down to earth and you’re just a regular dude who grew up playing the OG games like so many of us, and for you to have interest in the small details of these games is so refreshing. It’s always a good night when you upload! Keep it up
When Richtofen logs into the computer, his login ID is Teddy and his password is is a liar. Take away the T and you've got eddy is a liar. Which Richtofen was lying the whole time to the main crew about what he was doing
I can guarantee you that doing the EE is extremely headache inducing on solo. I remember spending at least a good hour and a half on the box just to shuffle around for the Gersch device and the QEDs.
In the black ops 3 version of shang it has a wierdly shaped moon instead of the earth moon with a rift. If you put the images of deimos and phobos on the rock and the eclipse they almost match perfectly. Maybe they used the earth moon to save resources since they had less budget in bo1 and it had to be mire detailed because its close to the map. I recommend black ops amazings video to shangri la on mars
The thing that always confused me about the timeline is that so much of the 935 stuff takes place AFTER Germany fell. Long after, in October. So for what purpose Maxis is still trying to develop Wonder Weapons and his undead army is unclear.
@@PhDxVader It happened at the end of the Easter egg I believe. Some sort of rift opened up after doing the steps in the lighthouse and the vrill passed it to us.
@@ThatWasAwesomeYT I guess I was wondering how Group 935 had it on the moon before the events of the games and then it disappearing somehow after Samantha went into the Pyramid. Maybe like you said a rift appeared and it was delivered to the characters at COTD and then given to Richtofen. Like, why would Richtofen have had to do that if the Golden Rod was already on the moon from Groph and Schuster experimenting with it? I digress lol. Great video!
1:03:21 this was the doing of Dr. Shuster after group 935 disbanded he went to help the americans with research and what not. he was trying to teleport to the moon but he was always facing a problem that is time travel. this is why when ultimis used this teleporter they went to 2025
sidenote: it would make sense george knows about shangra la because the crew was teleported there from call of the dead. i know thats writers choice but its cool that its someone from georges staff that goes looking for him. even tho it was writers choice the crew is there its nice continuity and a nice link to a new story that introduces new people (brock and gary). its like rhyming in rap or poetry ( words end rhymeA for a bar, then half way through the next bar you go "words end rhymeB, words end rhymeA, words end rhymeB" and the end rhymeB only for the next bar) idk they did a great job at linking the stories (even campaign) in bo1 and bo2 and its something i dont see alot of lore videos or critics talk about. (for proof look at bo3 (i love bo3 only cus of zc. soe was good and they should have stuck to that crew ngl the other maps are fun to play but story is eh) and the rest of their zombie games after that the story telling just isnt the same)
I think when Richtofen first teleported to Moon the power room was for some reason filled with air and pressurized to earth's atmosphere. It is no longer pressurized due to the station's teleporter excavating the cavern roof to hover above the pyramid.
I think Fluffy was sabotaged teleported in an earlier experiment, Richtofen accidentally creating the hellhound. When Samantha saw the hellhound reappear, Richtofen took this chance either to kill Samantha and Dr Maxis with the same sabotaged teleportations that killed so many soldiers only to accidentally do a real teleport to the moon by muscle memory Or he intended to kill them on the moon in a more controlled environment where he can get away with murder.
@@ThatWasAwesomeYT Woah, I guess it never occurred to me it could be sending them back over a billion years. After 10 years, this is my favorite secret because it's so strange and nonchalant

audio is perfect and thank you for the quality upgrade❤
Can u do the beginning of bo2 zombies ❤
@@Thechozengamer734 oh for sure, it’ll take some time but that’s the next episode of Learning Lore ;)

Literally, I've been trying to learn for YEARS
yes exactly, great series fr
Exactly
Does anyone else know the complete storyline and only keeps watching lore videos to have someone explain it differently 😂
Guilty😂
ye lol

This storyline may be confusing as hell but it sure is intriguing as hell too

Walls closing in on them? " something just swam past my leg" ? Pretty sure these are just Star Wars references
They're also that, and it's hilarious
Can we agree that Maxis is a terrible boss
Seeing Richtofen’s name on the shrine in Shang is one of most shocking things I have ever seen
Can't help but imagine Brock looking like Sean Connery as Indiana Jones' father, that voice dits very well 😂
That’s exactly what I imagined too, and Gary to me looks like Marty mc fly

Is there nothing you can do to unlock your account?
@fuller9357 I wish. Old account I made when I was younger, so I never wrote the information I used down. So many games lost lol but its on me I guess.
Watching this guys content evolve has been amazing. Love these vids keep it up
Always enjoy your videos and love how you go into as much detail as you can. Keep up the great work!!
Here's a fun fact! In the black ops 3 version, 'earths' moon has an awfully similar appearance to phobos!
No the Vrill and the Apothicons aren't the same, the Vrill and the Keepers are, any Keepers you fight in Bo3 are considered corrupted by the Apothicons, thats why they're not trying to help, but on Revelations there is a helpful Keeper, thats just a normal one not corrupted
amazing work man i enjoyed this so much and it is a good refresher for my all time favorite story

Best zombies series on RUclips to date

Poor Gary, he's playing 1,000 ways to die
Need another one of these for black ops 2 now! Love the video 👍👍
27:15 Uh oh! Bad decision, Brock!
Wait- so how did the Vril Device originally get to Call of the Dead? Am I missing something?
@@PhDxVader It happened at the end of the Easter egg I believe. Some sort of rift opened up after doing the steps in the lighthouse and the vrill passed it to us.

im glad in bo3 they made the rockets on moon have launch pads not just a undetailed pit of nothing
I remember playing these when i was kid
I've never knew the zombies story was that complex and long and had an "ending". Crazy 🤯
The End has only just begun sweet summer child!
I like to picture Brock and Gary as CoD's Rick and Morty
Oooh ima sleep to this
I think when Richtofen first teleported to Moon the power room was for some reason filled with air and pressurized to earth's atmosphere. It is no longer pressurized due to the station's teleporter excavating the cavern roof to hover above the pyramid.
I thought he could breath in the power room because it was a cave before Richthofens group excavated it and put all the power equipment around it.
I think Fluffy was sabotaged teleported in an earlier experiment, Richtofen accidentally creating the hellhound. When Samantha saw the hellhound reappear, Richtofen took this chance either to kill Samantha and Dr Maxis with the same sabotaged teleportations that killed so many soldiers only to accidentally do a real teleport to the moon by muscle memory
Or he intended to kill them on the moon in a more controlled environment where he can get away with murder.
The cave the MPD was in was an inclosed space. It’s possible the MPD can at least in a minor capacity produce an atmosphere.
I know you have yet to cover BO4 Zombies, but the map “Classified” takes place before Moon.
@@oriongear2499 we’ll get there soon enough ;)
Yes, shangri la takes place on mars, confirmed on tag der toten
@@Kerrycaverga912 but is that Tag Der Toten in the same universe 🤔
Kinda forgot to finish up the story of Sally's adventure looking for George... or are you saving that for BO3?
Yep! I'll go into that when we get there.
@@ThatWasAwesomeYT Ah. That makes sense.
do u still "no clip" explore maps on bo1? in victor charlie would be a nice place to explore or crash site
Is shangrila donating oxygen to the Martian atmosphere?
It's possible, but I would say it is more likely time travel is meant to be sending them to a time when Mars had rivers and trees.
@@ThatWasAwesomeYT
Woah, I guess it never occurred to me it could be sending them back over a billion years.
After 10 years, this is my favorite secret because it's so strange and nonchalant
1:25:39 the rest of the ultimis crew actually used the teleporter and went back to the past all the way to 1963
Since Area 51 is the only teleporter we have that takes us to the moon does that make the moon American?
@@The_Chxmist Yes! I would imagine the US took it over after it had been abandoned by Richtofen and his group after WWII ended.
13:50 richtofens a freak
☕️ Ahhh…that was awesome.
Maybe the tattoos are referring to SOE tats/markings?
do you think sally 8 being on bo6 trailer is linked to any of this ?
I thought Shang was on mars.
Isn’t Shangar la on mars in zombies?
wait wtf? why is quick revive here??? 1:08:27
I’m not sure how he’s consistently wrong about small details of the story but big things are accurate
A W E S O M E AS ALWAYS ❤
6:20 is that optimus prime?!
Good catch bro. Seems like the same voice actor played Megatron
FINALLYY
Post more lore vids!
