    The Apothicon Language Decoded (For Real this time)

    Posted: 08 Feb 2020 08:13 PM PST

    The Apothicon Language Decoded (For Real this time)

    ​

    ​

    The Complete Apothicon Language Sheet, based on Treyarch's and made from scratch.

    ​

    Almost four years ago, the entire community was told that we now had in our hands, the keys to decoding the Apothicon (and Keeper) languages. Now, with u/Xptg (twitter: https://twitter.com/EricMaynardII), Bench (twitter:https://twitter.com/bench_appearo), and myself (as well as several others) having spend an inordinate amount of hours on it over the past week, I tell you today that this was not the case. In fact, we had barely scratched the surface of the Apothicon Language.

    ​

    WHAT WE KNEW:

    From the limited information we were selectively given by MrRoflWaffles, we knew the translations of Apothicon words into English, and vice-versa. As an example, HUMAN translates to ZOR'ARKOTH. However that was it. We knew nothing more than exact translations.

    ​

    WHAT WE DIDN'T KNOW:

    Every word in Apothicon is a single symbol, that is made up of several "radicals". These radicals have their own individual meanings and so can give context or information not only about a word, but about the way the word relates to the Apothicons as a species, or their views on it.

    For this, I'll provide a real-world example: If we take the English word "Wednesday", it's easy enough to just consider it a word - however if you dig into the etymology of it, you actually find a bit of history. Wednesday comes from Wodan's-day, which in turn means Odin's Day. This comes from the Viking occupation of Britain, when Odin was of course worshipped as a patron. However, without knowledge of the pieces that make up "Wednesday", this analysis would be impossible. The Same is true with Apothicon.

    Unfortunately however, the majority of the radicals - bar the few that Milo had shared in a single video - were totally unknown to everyone other than him, however thanks to our efforts, this is no longer the case.

    APOTHICON ETYMOLOGY:

    Looking again at Zor'Arkoth:

    We know this means human, but if we split it up into its component radicals (ZOR, ARK, OTH/OZ), we can learn a little bit about how Apothicons view humans.

    ZOR - Potential

    ARK - Open

    OTH - Change

    In this sense, Zor'Arkoth could be literally translated as "(being that is) Open to Change". However, given what we know about Apothicon's history with Humans, I personally believe this could be more liberally translated as "(being that is) Easily Manipulated".

    Another great example, not only for its lore implications but also as a practical example of translation, is the word for Apothicon - OZZOTH:

    If we take Ozzoth purely based on its spelling, we get the radical of "OTH/OZ" twice. However, if we instead look at its symbol, we can clearly see the radical for "NOG". There are numerous examples of radicals that feature in the symbols of words, but not necessarily their English transliterations - these can be seen much like silent letters in English, in that they are equally as important to the word, just keep in mind that they are not pronounced.

    It should be noted here that there is no concept of "I" in Apothicon. We get confirmation in Black Ops 4 that they operate under a hive-mind, however had we this information when it was meant to have been released four years ago, we would have been able to figure it our far sooner. OZZOTH is made up of "MY, MINE, OUR" and "CHANGE". This could be seen as a possible allusion to this idea.

    ​

    THE IMAGE AND THE PROCESS:

    The image itself is a replication of the original treyarch design document (seen in the teaser for the Awakening DLC for Black Ops 3 and printed on the shirt given to Milo) and is seemingly completely accurate, however we would be grateful if any inaccuracies are pointed out.

    The process itself was straight forward but equally time consuming. When we first started, we were able to dig up several images of Blundell wearing the shirt or the shirt being held up in videos, however these were often blurry. Luckily, the most important part of missing information - the radicals - were in some cases just about clear enough to make out, however this was not true for all radicals. At first, even if the radical itself was visible, the English definition appeared to be a pixelated mess. This didn't make it impossible to decode though. By looking at all words that used a specific radical, we were able to discern a lose meaning for the radical, and then by comparing to the text on the image for length and character shape, were able to eventually find the correct fitting word. Whilst at first this left a lot of uncertainty, as we translated more and used a process of elimination, as well as the methods previously described, the radical definitions became more and more accurate up until the finished product, of which I personally believe to have the totally accurate definitions (however again, if anyone can find evidence or valid counter examples, please send them to any of us as it is in everyone's best interests that this is as accurate as possible).

    ​

    WORD SYNTHESIS:

    This is the fun part. For the first time since the language was first introduced 1556 days ago in Shadows of Evil, it is now possible to make your own words in Apothicon. In order to do this, simply take the radicals that fit the word you wish to create and fit them together. As seen by many full words on the list, radicals themselves can be disassembled to make a more aesthetically pleasing word, and in some cases (e.g. Parasite, Elemental) are somewhat pictographic, and look like the thing they represent.

    ​

    NOTES:

    When looking at the language sheet, you may notice that the radicals "nool" and "yog" have no symbol. This isn't because we couldn't figure out what it was, but that there was no symbol on the treyarch design documentation itself. However here are my thought: Nool and Yog are seemingly the second and third person variants of Nog, and as such, I believe if written, would use the same radical as that of Nog, therefore that radical's reading is dependant on its context.

    Furthermore, you may notice certain words have either the same meaning, or same pronunciation as radicals (e.g. "Maroth" - Shadow, and "Nog" (noun)). In the case of Maroth, whilst the radical "Mar" means shadow, Maroth literally translates to Change-Shadow, so in my view can be seen as an actual physical shadow that moves and twists as the object casting it does, rather than an abstract idea that the radical represents. With Nog (noun), it is clear to see that it features the radical for hold. This indicates that the noun form refers to actual possessions (as it translates literally to "(hold) my, mine, our".

    Finally, the symbols for "BREAK" and "SHOCK" were not given Apothicon translations by Treyarch on their design document, further confirmed by the fact that they are impossible to obtain on Milo's translator website.

    ​

    CLOSING REMARKS

    In my opinion, this is information that the community deserved, and I feel truly privileged to bring it to you, and though I cannot speak for the others, I'm sure they would agree. Now, Lar Ozzoth otha nool Shubozzor Nethest Baresthlar.

    Round 4 Solo

    Posted: 09 Feb 2020 12:13 PM PST

    Round 4 Solo

    The lowest round for getting the Skull of Nan Sapwe is round 1, however that is using Mega Gobblegums. I wanted to see what the lowest round you can do it without Gobblegums on Solo though. After doing calculations, and actually playing the game, I got round 4, and you can't possible go any lower than that without using GG.

    Is Mule kick added in the random perk bottle drops in Black ops 1?

    Posted: 09 Feb 2020 04:36 AM PST

    When they went back and put Mule kick in every single Black ops 1 zombies map, does the random perk bottle drops in Accension and Call of the dead give it out? or do I have to make sure to grab it before I hit 4 perks and start killing George in Call of the dead?

    Addressing the Toxicity in the Zombies community...

    Posted: 08 Feb 2020 09:07 PM PST

    So, as of late I've seen lots of comments on this subreddit and on Psn and other social media, generally surrounding people's distaste for bo4 Zombies.

    I'm sure you've all heard, seen, or addressed it in some way.

    Now, Constructive criticism is a great thing that is needed within the community and should be widely accepted, and certain games are deserving of such criticism.

    HOWEVER This community has a problem that needs to be addressed about attacking people for said criticisms or opinions. JUST BECAUSE PEOPLE LIKE OR DISLIKE BO4 DOES NOT MEAN YOU HAVE TO ATTACK OR VERBALLY ABUSE THEM ONLINE FOR THEIR OPINIONS. And it goes for the other way around as well.

    People who don't like bo4: It's totally okay to not like it. Just don't attack the people that do.

    People that do like bo4: it's totally okay to like the game. Just don't attack the people that don't enjoy it.

    We are a community, we should be helping each other and discussing things with a bit more civility. You don't need to call the other guy typing derogatory names if you disagree.

    I've said my piece, don't kill each other in the comments.

    Unused COD BO code?

    Posted: 09 Feb 2020 12:12 PM PST

    Hey guys. So I've always wanted to play COD BO and this Christmas I asked for a steam card to purchase the game but when I tried to redeem the card, it just kept saying my code was invalid. After a while of trying solutions online and trying to contact my seller I gave up and assumed I was scammed. (Probably sold a used card) So I was wandering if any of you guys have an unused BO code you'd be willing to give away? Or if anyone could point me towards a code generator or something that would be awesome

    Original Wraith Fire was just a reskinned Molotov cocktail? Found in the IX music video, can also be found in the Voyage of Despair/ IX Chaos storyline trailer. Fire is blue once thrown in both videos.

    FIX: Cod waw bordered windowed!

    Posted: 09 Feb 2020 10:37 AM PST

    Hey guys!

    This is a simple fix to use call of duty world at war in windowed mode.

    1. Go to 'C:\Users\{user\AppData\Local\Activision\CoDWaW\players\profiles\{your profile name}'

    2. Change the value of r_fullscreen in 'config.cfg' and 'config_mp.cfg' to "0" instead of "1"

    Now my cod waw is not covering the whole screen, so I used borderless gaming to fix that. You can just get it for free from their github.

    Enjoy! I hope this helped!

    Custom zombie trailers allowed?

    Posted: 09 Feb 2020 12:18 AM PST

    Hello,

    ​

    I used to come here everyday a few years ago, but around the time of the release of Black Ops 3 - Mod Tools I've stopped due to weird and confusing moderation rules. Mapping & Scripting is a way to live my passion for Call of Duty Zombies. By now, I've worked on many projects with other talented people. When they try to show off their hard work they've reported to me that when they post progress (such as a trailer) they've had their posts deleted.

    ​

    So, I'm wondering what are the conditions / rules to post custom modding content in this subreddit? It's very confusing because some posts have been allowed and not removed but others haven't. One moderator told me that if it has commentary it's deemed as self promotion but trailers to maps don't have any commentary what so ever. Very confusing.

    ​

    In my opinion it would be very awesome if custom zombies had it's place in this subreddit, seeing as though there are many people who enjoy the custom content we create and we spend sometimes up to multiple years on a single project. Also it's a great way to fill in the gap between treyarch releases! What do you guys think?

    My list of typical public match allies

    Posted: 08 Feb 2020 04:14 PM PST

    Felt like making a list of the typical teammates I have encountered after my many hours of public matches. Feel free to comment with your own and I'll add it to the list :)

    The Alpha - The ideal teammate. Doesn't hog all the points/kills. Helps with buying doors and crafting items. Makes an attempt to revive other players and might assist with the map easter egg.

    The Biggest Fan - Player with a mic who is sitting too close to a fan/AC unit.

    The BOSS - Player with a mic who will make (typically unsuccessful) commands for other players. Can usually be found begging to be revived.

    Charlie Brown's Teacher - A player with a mic who is trying to communicate but can't be understood. (u/WarfarePlayz)

    The Compensator - Boasts about how good they are in the pre-game lobby but repeatedly goes down throughout the game and doesn't know anything about the map. (u/678-Mx u/OverTheReminds)

    The Diva/Prima Donna - A player (usually of a higher level) who will instantly quit after being downed for the first time.

    The Divorcer - Commits to an EE or other long-term goal only to abandon their teammates, mid-game, after they've used/wasted their consumables. (u/OverTheReminds)

    DJ - Has a mic that is blaring music.

    Downer - Sticks around, but gets downed all the time.

    Easter bEGGar - Player who starts the first steps of the map's easter egg. Usually quits, later on, when the rest of the team is not helping with the EE.

    The Ghost - An independent who likes doing their own thing. Can be found on the opposite side of the map. Will re-locate if other players come near them.

    The Glitch Bitch - A player who specializes in propelling themselves in a spot where they can't be downed. (u/Freenokia)

    Laggy Larry - Seeker of bandwidth. Can be found running in place. Connection Interrupted

    Medic - Makes reviving their highest priority. Might sacrifice themselves in doing so.

    Nine-Volt Vex - Has a mic, but does NOT have a fresh battery for their smoke detector. beep

    No-Mic No-go - Takes up a spot in the pre-game lobby, refusing to Ready-Up while complaining about the other players not having mics (u/WarfarePlayz)

    On-again Off-again - Player who rotates from participating to AFK.

    Point Whorder - Makes a great effort in stealing all the kills at the beginning of the game. Does not help with opening doors or crafting parts. Can typically be found spending all their points at the mystery box.

    The Shadow - A player of a lower level who follows the player of the highest level throughout the entire game.

    Silent Bob - Has a mic plugged in but doesn't talk, even when spoken to. (u/x678-Mx)

    The Sleeper - Knows the map EE like the back of their hand, but only helps out a little so they aren't tasked to do all the work. (u/Freenokia)

    Sugar Daddy - The player who buys all the doors and crafts all the items.

    Toxic Timmy - Player with a mic who will vocally express their dissatisfaction of other players' performances. (u/WarfarePlayz)

    The Troll - Does everything in their power to sabotage the game, like opening obvious safe-space doors or activating traps when teammates are following them, disrupting trains, etc.. (u/Freenokia)

    Back when the Death Machine was more of a hindrance than help haha

    Posted: 08 Feb 2020 01:14 PM PST

    Unpopular opinion? I would like a storyline that focuses on how humanity was affected by the outbreak.

    Posted: 08 Feb 2020 07:32 PM PST

    I just feel like a story focusing on a random person would add a more personal and gritty atmosphere to the game. It doesnt even have to be part of the main storyline but atleast put it as a side piece. We know that to a point there was still a standing government so maybe a story where said "main" characters are trying to get to a military base or even a rumored safe haven.
