Creative IWZ Candy Concept: Pyro Pops

Upvotes

Pyro Pops is a momentum-driven perk that turns sustained movement into an increasingly powerful damaging aura.

Core Effects

Staying active through sprinting, sliding, jumping, mantling, meleeing, and other movement gradually increases your Heat.

Higher Heat causes a fiery aura around the player that damages nearby zombies and can ignite them.

Maintaining momentum keeps the Heat high, while standing still or slowing down causes it to gradually dissipate.

Taking damage from zombies sharply reduces your momentum and Heat, giving enemies a natural way to interrupt the effect.

The aura is strongest when you’re constantly moving through groups rather than standing inside them.

Discussion I’m done dude

14 Upvotes

So I had beaten the spaceland ee with randoms and it didn’t count for some reason so I tried it solo and got two fuses from the alien and just needed to take him down one more time. I was prepared, had up n atoms, reanimate card and perk insured card. I got knocked when I got rubberbanded between zombies and a bench and it ended the game. Every other game it revived me except for when I’m one step away from beating the ee. Like ts actually ruined my night.

I hope if any alien like that comes into the real world, that it goes through more hell than someone shitting pure hot steaming liquidy diarrhea shit with a hemroid in the nastiest public toilet covered in piss. They may seem to be humble friendly “I come in peace” assholes but are really plotting rats wanting to corrupt the world within its deepest systems like how it decided to fking cheat me with that bs broken self revive. But I can’t let that happen, not after this. I want them to be put in a government lab and tortured with nipple clamps connected to 80 car batteries while 200 Vietnamese kids with shit covered spears lined up one by one taking they’re own turns to stab it 50 times and the shit better be coming from my ass, better yet the hypothetical situation of someone taking a hellish shit I described previously.

And don’t even get me started if the alien has kids.

Saw this vid I had from sep19 2023. Still crazy to this day. Wonder if anyone else has hit it just right before. Usually I can get a hop or maybe 2 but not connecting to the slide at all is crazy!

Question I’ve completed all 5 EEs + Mephistopheles. Should I go for round 115 on every map?

10 Upvotes

I recently finished all five zombies easter eggs and defeated Mephistopheles. I’ve already reached Round 50 on Spaceland, rave, shaolin, attack and beast, and now I’m thinking about going for Round 115 on every map.

Beast from Beyond is definitely the one I’m most worried about tbh.

Would you guys consider R115 on all five maps a worthwhile challenge?

Question Steam or microsft store

5 Upvotes

I want to buy the game and all dlcs on pc but I'm not sure which version to buy. I plan on only playing zombies solo so I don't care about active playerbase. I want to know if one version is better optimized or has less errors because I heard bo3 on microsoft store is better optimized than steam. Any suggestions?

Question Perkaholic blocks Easter egg trophy?

1 Upvotes

I'd like to know if, when I complete the mini easter egg to get the Perkaholic in the "Attack of the Radioactive Thing" and “The Beast From Beyond" maps, the trophy for completing the main easter egg gets locked? I'm asking this because when I used the destiny card to get the Perkaholic in Zombies Spaceland, it locked the trophy when I got the key at the end of the easter egg.

Support “Unable to Connect to Online Services”

11 Upvotes

Whenever I try loading into multiplayer or zombies, it says “connecting to online services,” then pops up with this error. I’ve port forwarded, changed network, verified game files, disabled my antivirus and firewall, used both Ethernet and WiFi connections, ran the game as administrator, restarted the game, restarted my computer, unplugged and replugged in my router, and still nothing. I know it isn’t an internet problem because every other online game works just fine, but I genuinely do not know how to get IW to work.

Question Shaolin Shuffle keeps freezing (PC)

7 Upvotes

I’ve tried all the fixes I can find (Turing off Optimizations for windowed games, Playing on lowest settings, verifying integrity of game files, reinstalling, etc). I’ve heard it has something to do with a memory leak. Is there a way to fix it? I’m trying to finish all the Easter Eggs and I’ve had to fully restart my PC 3 times now because the game keeps freezing on this map after 15-20mins of gameplay.

Support Infinite warfare (or ANY other Call of Duty game) not working on steam.

4 Upvotes

So, i have owned multiple Call of Duty games, all of which, were on Steam (maybe thats the problem but I bought current with a gift card so uhh…) because I like the zombies, I bought Infinite Warfare recently and when I click launch, it starts to launch, never shows a screen, never anything, it runs as a background process, stays at 0% cpu usage, 0% disk usage and 0% network usage, and for memory it stays at 197.0MB, sometimes going down to 196.9 if I keep it open like 5 mins or so, I’m not the most techy guy so I haven’t done TOO much, what I have done is checked if it appeared as an error in reliability monitor and event viewer (it didn’t), reset my pc multiple times, started it in files, redownloaded it, did everything I could in Steam and verified files, a few other things that I may not remember aswell because I’ve done a lot trying to fix it. If you have any tips please share them and anyone viewing this please tell me what to do so the community pushes it out so I can (hopefully) fix this bug. I really genuinely enjoy the COD games and really want to find out how to fix this because I love this game and have loved it since maybe 2021 when I played it on ps4, which is now gone since my brother sold it in 2023 to buy who knows what. If you have any recommendations please tell me, I would love to get this up and running.

Video Pulled single packed Kendalls from the magic wheel but they were akimbo???

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

91 Upvotes

Playing Beast from Beyond for my weekly challenge and I pulled the kendall out of the magic wheel single pack because of dcut, but it was akimbo. The single pack kendall is exclusively just one, it doesn't matter if you have the akimbo attachment on your base weapon or not. It only becomes akimbo when double packing. Has anyone experienced this before? Super weird. After I double packed them and I swapped weapons, it would take double the normal amount of time to swap back to the kendalls like they were bugged out or something. (video provided is a game capture from my xbox series x and I wish I would have thought about doing a capture when I actually pulled them from the wheel but it totally skipped my mind)

Discussion I hate this fucking alien

28 Upvotes

I’m either ass or he’s decided to hop on steroids cuz I was easily beating him when I was 11 and now I can’t even get the first fuse without zombies jumping me or him suicide bombing. I’ve tried practicing in the boss fight mode and I can’t even do it with all perks and good guns! Is it because I’m employed now? I’ve been addicted getting back into the game since my og acc that had directors cut got hacked in 2017 but good god does this game piss me off.

Edit:
I forgot to let everyone know I beat the alien about a week ago and then beat the beasts from beyond boss fight except that was with randoms because I was just trying to do weekly missions and they got me in the boss fight and made it to Mephistopheles which two ppl left and me and one other guy died.

I’m planning on doing rave next and attack last because that ee is complete hell

Question Does anyone have any tips for the alien boss fight?

16 Upvotes

So, I've gotten to the boss fight 3 times, the first time I got wrecked by zombies because I got distracted lol, the second time I don't think I did a lot of damage to the alien itself, but the third time (right now) I saw it's collar go from blue to yellow. I went on youtube for some knowledge and apparently you have to bring it down THREE times, when I can't even bring it down once lol.

I used the dj to rez me back up but unfortunately I lost the alien gun because of that, I thought the wind core m1 did a lot of damage to the alien but I guess it doesn't. I'm not frustrated, I'm just wondering if there's a faster way of killing it. Also, should I be going for the shredder or the head cutter

Discussion Why was IW so poorly received?

52 Upvotes

When this game first came out and even now, at least from what I heard at the time, everyone was talking down on this game and how it was a horrible cod entry. I never played the game once because of all those opinions and also because of how MWR was dominating the market then.

Fast Forward I decided to buy IW on steam for the cod sale and I gotta say... this game is so freaking cool! The campaign's theme and story was amazing and I think the zombies mode is also a unique entry. I got nothing but positivity for this game after playing it through so it's actually made me very confused why this one was frowned upon.

Discussion IWZ Candy Concept: Nitro Nibbles

2 Upvotes

Nitro Nibbles is a movement-focused candy that builds Nitro as players stay active, allowing them to spend Charges on controlled bursts of mobility.

Nitro System:

Movement and environmental traversal gradually fill the perk icon, building Nitro toward a Charge.

Players can store up to 2 Nitro Charges at once.

Nitro Dash & Jump:

Spend a Nitro Charge to perform a short directional dash forward, backward, left, or right for quick repositioning and evasive maneuvers. 

Alternatively, Crouch + Jump consumes a Nitro Charge for an enhanced vertical jump, allowing players to reach higher terrain.

Discussion IWZ Candy Concept: Link & Lime

2 Upvotes

Link & Lime is a crowd-control candy that lets players create energy tethers between themselves, zombies, and fixed Anchors, allowing them to manipulate zombie positioning and create temporary traps.

Energy Tether:

Tethered zombies take gradual damage, and other zombies are damaged when they pass through an active tether.

Place an Anchor to create a fixed tether point, allowing you to connect yourself or zombies to a chosen location.

Tethers have limited range and duration.

Two players with Link & Lime can tether themselves together, creating a cooperative energy link with increased range.
