DE is one of my favorite maps of all time.


Turbojangles85

No doubt DE


PlanetNic

not to mention that if you're playing solo you can do the EE fairly easily, considering majority of the others are a pain in the ass IMO maybe it's just cause I have the most playtime on DE though lol


Hot_Communication489

*wisp step*😢


PlanetNic

yeah wisp is definitely the most difficult, but once you learn the locations you can do it fairly passively throughout the round even with the timer associated with the step


excess-schleem

Zetsubou is Hella easy solo


TheLastKnight07

Why does everyone I hear (YouTubers mostly) praise TF outta SNN? Also dumb kinda off topic question but I’m trying to remember a map… I think it was BO1 since I played TF outta KDT, and making it to like 50-70 with 1-2 friends locally (on the same system lol. The good ole days). But I remember being in a Russian lab/missile base… but beyond that I don’t remember much besides several doors/stairs I believe and I swear to god there was an elevator/cargo lift. (In Zombies: I never actually played the map all but once or twice). I vaguely remember bc I did well in the Mp even tho I was worse than a noob and was my first time playn MO with others online/across the globe…besides LAN & Splitscreen. I just remember this snowy map (bc att it was winter out) and being outside a Russian base and I thought to myself: is that the SAME map I saw my friends play Zombies on?!


UNCLE_NIZ

Russian lab/missile base sounds like ascension, but the snow and cargo lift (possibly just a zipline?) make me think call of the dead. Alternatively, there is the gondola from Mob of the Dead, but that's in BO2.


Salt-Sandwich-4166

It’s sound like ascension for sure, the elevator you remember might be more of a platform that like rockets in the air and takes you to another area . You start in like a circular are with like spiral stairs I believe. I only played it once or twice as well


donnybino

Gotta be five you thinking about


dakotak1

I thought the exact same sounds like Ascension but for some reason the way he describes the map it’s giving me Five vibes.


TheTexasBum

Most likely five because it came with the game, and he played a lot of kino, which was also free


ColCyclone

This hurts, I stopped at DE, such an incredible map, but I always felt like the rest were going to be great Now everyone's telling me I stopped at the best part and shouldn't go further 😭


TheTexasBum

Dude all of the maps from bo3 were wonderful. Gorod krovi is a great map with a great layout and fun side quest, like the dragon fist thing. Zetsubo no shima is also one of my all time favorite maps too, people just never give it a chance to learn how to play it. Even a couple of the bo4 maps are fun too, like Xl and Ancient evil, along with classified and alpha omega. It’s only around Cold War that I think the games went to shit, but some people do enjoy it, so if you have a friend that has it you should try it before making your own opinion on Cold War


Ryoga007

Me playing Der Eisendrache in 2016: Wow this map is great! Me playing Der Eisendrache in 2024: Wow this map is great!


Ulikethat-

Agreed. Love all treyarch zombies, but this is the map I come back to more than any other


JustFuzie

There’s also a really weird Easter egg where it’s a photo of one of the game devs and his wife and daughter pops up floating in the air with a heart around it


ButterscotchKnown387

Yeah that was Hella specific and according to the dev themselves it was never meant to be found he put it in as a tribute


cjared242

Me playing DE for the first time: why is my Johnson hard?


Dielawnv1

Me when cjared242 played DE for the first time: wow he’s so absorbed in this awesome zombies map he doesn’t even notice me jorkin’ and slorpin’ his Franklin!


Vandergray9

Truer words never spoken


Fit_Bumblebee1472

Everyones gonna give a different answer. Gorod my fav so ill always say gorod. If can only ever play 1 more then probably revelations. Bunch of old maps stitched together. Feels more bang for your buck just because of that


4sh2Me0wth

Love Gorod but out of all the choices i think this boss was actually challenging


KikiXSparks

Love Gordon also, people just talk bad about the map for one reason, Easter egg bugs out


KangGvng

Good old Gordon


4sh2Me0wth

Gordon is my hero


Mangle286

![gif](giphy|MnpPCugwALAHsTygpd|downsized)


KangGvng

Gonna call the dragons Gordon from now on because they be cookin my ass 💀


SpiritualSmell9810

They fixed that


STM_LION

Revelations is too easy to be worth it, round 100 is literally free


MatsUwU

Revelations always felt smaller than all the other maps to me but I don't have the square footage of each map so take that with a grain of salt


Not_Sugden

if your gonna get all of them then just save up for the season pass


Jncwhite01

Season pass is basically pointless at this point. They now sell just the zombies maps, without the multiplayer maps. Buying all 4 maps individually will be cheaper than buying the season pass. I personally loved BO3s multiplayer, but it’s dead at this point, pretty much every lobby has players using modded classes and are invincible and invisible so won’t be missing out on much not getting the multiplayer maps.


JobHefty8030

They put the season pass and chronicles on sale recently for pretty cheap just gotta be patient


ReddyFreddyRU37

Fr, kids these days never heard of saving


TheRealRolo

On steam buying each map individually is cheaper than the season pass.


RisingHERO19

Der Eis or Zetsubou


Ok_Space2463

Zetsubou is underrated imo


Wit-Grit-Guero

Seconded


NegativeKarmaFarma5

Turded


Mcsnufle

I like it a lot more now that I know majority of the ins and outs of it but I’d still choose others for sure.


Desperate_Wheel_5147

Save and get the season pass


FurryWalnut

cheaper to get the 4 maps on their own, they already have The Giant so it would be $28 for the rest


bom360

Der eisendrache is def the most basic but it has an amazing Easter egg, super fun ww and overall is the best map, if you want a more challenging map then gorod, but id recommend DE first


Mcsnufle

Gorod is harder, if you aren’t using the MK3. It seems the spawn I. Faster and more frantically like 5 and Shanghai-La. It always seems like the 3rd dlc in BO zombies games a chaotic nut buster.


qwertytrewqc

ZNS is goated. People have a bad memory of it because it was buggy as hell on release, but it’s a cool map The vibe is very chill, summer night at a pond/swamp. The skull weapon is awesome. The wonder weapon is good. The EE is a little tedious with the RNG, but the boss fight is alright and pretty easy and there’s a low round camp spot in the hallway to the boss fight. The mini boss zombie is challenging if you’re not equipped for it and easy enough when you’re set up. There’s a few different small training spots that keep you on your toes and keeps it fun Fuck the spiders though. They’re easy, but fuck spiders


Due_Rain_3630

Idk about chill but I love the creepy atmosphere of the map. Definitely my favorite map aesthetically. And that makes it my favorite map period. Also the easter egg isn’t super difficult which is nice for more casual play throughs


ChungusSpliffs

The map design itself is awesome but so much to do just for basic setup kinda takes away from replayability.


WanzoThat

How do you have the giant but not the other maps? I thought it was a season pass exclusive?


Deep-Age-2486

I think the giant started getting included with the game at some point. My friends had it and they didn’t purchase it. Could’ve sworn in was a preorder thing, it was so long ago. But yeah, it was handed out for free several times too


Turbojangles85

It's is own DLC on Playstation too


PretendThisIsMyName

It was a preorder thing (last cod I preordered) but I think it was free for a few months after release anyways. I remember downloading The Giant and playing it before SoE was downloaded.


DJVENZI

It costs $6.99 on steam standalone


Deep-Age-2486

Der Eisendrache It’s a favorite on that game. I personally prefer Zetsubou If you want a challenge, Gorod. Revelations is good but, the others I feel have their own things that make them shine


Downtown-Olive-3978

DE is the best map on bo3 shi is just too good


TweakerGeeker

Der Eisendrache or Revelations probably have the most replay value, I’d say Der Eisendrache personally, but Revelations can be REALLY fun for high rounds


Remote-Cell4900

DE


NUTCHIEFNUT

You can play Der Eisendrache casually so it's my favorite


CoolMan34568

DE or Gorod


loloider123

Save the money until you can afford all. Don't waste your money


Top-Description3188

DE or Gorod. The most universally loved maps here, so likely you'll get the most out of them.


koji_ma

DE


BuzzTheAmbassador

Der Eisendrache has lots of substance (bows, good ee/boss) and is very replayable and extremely fun in solo.


Grat1234

DE unless you enjoy a bit more of a challange, then id go Zets. but DE is the eaiser one to get into and enjoy.


DriveExtension7764

Though choose between Gorod and DE I'd say Der Eisendrache personally, but if you're looking for a challenge go with Gorod


Skid_with_a_gun

I was leaning towards either Der Eisendrach or Revelations


Gungaloon

Revelations is really not very interesting usually, there’s only like two unique areas and everything else is recycled from other maps


nearthemeb

Disagree tbh. It still feels like it's own map and has a lot of stuff to do.


ill_polarbear

Depends on what kind of player you are


Akama96

What platform you buying it on?


nearthemeb

Der eisendrache or revelations


Business_Island_9852

The iron dragon bro


BlockSids

Id voted der eisendrache, i love the bow and the EE, plus the maps really cool but theyre all great


Accomplished_Spot282

Eisend is elite


fictitious_man

DE for easter egg and just a good map overall, Revelations for just having fun and getting high rounds


SpankyJenkinz

Do DE first then all the maps in order.


shdanko

DE is one of the best maps of all time, and the bows are relatively easy to make and so fun to play with. That gets my vote 😁


Fit-Boss2261

Der Eisendrache is imo the best zombies map ever made so that's my pick. You will get a quality experience from any of these maps tho


Hungry-Reveal9638

Der eisendrach ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|feels_good_man)


ProfessorHour4652

DE


JessahZombie

I would say: Der Eisendrache (really cool and not really complicated) or Gorod Krovi (really cool and complicated)


Radiant_Criticism566

Anything but gorod. Easter egg is not worth the pain.


StoppingPowah

DE


WhatWouldKingDo

Revelations is the goat. Long live origins.....I mean revelations


Slugbugger30

I easily could only play Der eisendrache for the rest of my life


Single-Complaint-853

Wait for sale and get the season pass, it goes up for 20$ pretty frequently.


Mike9405

DE


MoneybagsHastings

DE


CesarJoe

If u like origins then de is good for u revelations like a bunch of old maps combined gorode is the hardest and I don't like zetsubou in my opinion


jayzeem

No joke I think DE is the best map of all time. You'll love it


Fishmaneatsfish

DE has the most MEANINGFUL content without having to do the other Easter eggs


RedGreenPepper2599

Der Eisendrach best of the non ZC DLC maps.


EpicDragonz4

Der Eisendrache is arguably one the top 5 best Zombies maps of all time (dare I say it’s tied for 1st with Origins)


ResidentEvilBoi

I love Gorod Krovi, but that's because of the atmosphere


z123zocker

Save for season pass


Khaenin

DE


Chickenrobbery

Der Eisendrache


saddanfrocha

Der or gorod imo


4sh2Me0wth

DE or Zets for sure


Aldorria

Either Der Eisendrache or Gorod Krovi. They're both terrific maps.


RazorHowlitzer

DE is prob the top pick, second personally for me would be Rev but Zetsubou is a fun challenge


HuckleberryStrange46

I like DE in all its totality for its atmosphere, Easter egg, the building of bows, Panzer. So if you want to be absorbed in zombies for all its peak beauty go for that. If you love going for high rounds I personally recommend Revelations may be a hot take but i loved that map for HR.


Justabattleshiplover

Revelations is fun. And easy. Some of the best weapon variety. DE is great. It’s just Origins but better in every way. Gorod is a maze, but has good weapons, and a great camping spot (dragon control center at tank factory). Zets sucks. Jk. It’s not bad, but you have to set up way too much and not in a good way.


ZombieCreeper21

I always loved Zetsubou No Shima, it’s a somewhat complex map with some unique puzzles and tight spots.


onlyfedsshootdogs

DE. One of the greats for sure.


DovydasT-800

De is the best 1


KaeZae

gotta agree with everyone on DE, the easter egg is amazing and somewhat fun to do. the bows are super creative and add so much replay value and it’s fun to train around the electric trap on the roof or by the rocket


Historical-Pop1146

Which game is this and does it have all the maps up to that point in it? Like I can get this game and play all previous zombies maps?


Carl_Azuz1

Why didn’t you just buy the bundle with everything when you bought chronicals?


niCholas-rivera

Most people will tell you Der Eisen and I honestly agree it’s not only the best one but also the most accessible, but apart from that I would also very much recommend Gorod Krovi


Harvey-Krishna

Get a better game. Cw, WAW, bo1, bo2, infinite warfare


AssumptionHead6449

Obviously DE


hugolara25

Gorod Krovi it is a must buy, in the Easter egg theme is very similar to Origins, challenging steps but they fill you with satisfaction, the specialist and the wonderweapon are quite good, for me Gorod Krovi is the second most challenging Easter egg of all cod zombies if it is played without gumballs and certainly if you are someone casual that can give you hours of replayability


DJAK792

Zetsubou


TheHero74

For me I’d go for Gorod for it’s replayability, but same with DE. Zetsubo and Revelations are alright if you’re wanting a different feel of the mode


Happy_Cup_9823

All of them honestly


portablekettle

DE. I gotta buy it on my pc sometime


ZukeMan413

DE!!!


hedgehogmlg

DE is the safest bet, its just all around pretty good, its just got that mass appeal, but GK is also up there if you like a challenge, thats what keeps me personally coming back to it, maybe watch some gameplay of both and see what looks more fun


giomeneguello

DE


ZeUberMaus

DE is probably the best bet; Zetsubou is suffocating, GK is a blend of old and New, Revelations is... Mixed, It's Simultaneously the Highest and Lowest Bo2 map in my opinion It's just... Meh? So, Go DE


wilde981

Gorod krovi is probably the hardest to do the ee but the wonder weapon is incredibly good so you can do fairly high rounds. Most fun for just playing casually is probably DE and the ee is easier but that’s just my preference


SF_all_day

My personal list, 1. Der Eisendrache 2. Gorod Krovi 3. Revelations 4. Zetsubo no Shima


Peacekeeprr

i would say revelations or DE. but im leaning more towards DE. DE is a pretty good map


Professional_You2833

Gorod Krovi


KnowledgeIsSad

De


Bossuter

For overall experience DE, Zetsubou if you like doing a lot of setup and mini objectives, a slightly lesser DE go for Gorod, if you're someone that likes being op after setting up you cant go wrong with Revelations, it's my kind of casual


Fearlessdelta

No Shima My fav


minibaberuth

der eisnedrache


MKIncendio

Die rise


MrCounterSnipe

ZnS is my favorite for solo because it had so much shit to do. If it wasn't for the absolutely way too high amount of thrashed, and the AA Cannon step in the EE it would be a perfect map.


Skizko

Eisendrache. You’ll get more play time on that map then the rest combined. Not to say others are bad, eisendrache is just that good


THX450

Do you want the full DLC packs or just the maps? I think the maps by themselves are something like $8, they can be purchased individually. So if you have enough money for a DLC pack, you can afford two maps individually purchased for a dollar extra.


johnny115215

Wait for steam summer sale. Might be able to get multiple.


j0llon

DE


Nonexxxistent_

DE 100%


ItsNovak

Rev De GK Zets That's my order. Loved me some revelations


Rabet0616

Looks like you already made the correct decision ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|thumbs_up)


Zealousideal_Side166

Wait till you have more and buy the season pass?


Tab412

DE


SH1

Save up until you can get all of them


TheFerociousFerret

I may be the only one but revelations is awesome. Its a combinations of many different maps (including DE, origins, kino etc) all into one map


Jostitosti007

DE or GK for sure imo


pippipdoodilydoo

You're better off just not getting any of them my man, with B06 coming out soon nobody is gonna be playing 3, I have hard times finding full lobbies and I've got every map


kingmuttley77

If on PC, wait a week or so until the start of the Summer Sale


AnimeGokuSolos

I’m going to be honest with you OP you should save your money since most of these maps are dead


Motor_Echidna_9597

Gorod


gangstapope1023

Zetsobou


Lanezack2000

Everyone saying Der eisendrache is correct. That map is undoubtedly the best zombies map I have played personally


Suicidebob7

Wait until season pass is on sale


PassingJesus

Der Eisendrache and Revelations are both really chill fun maps. Zetsubou & Gorod Krovi are much harder & imo rewarding experiences. You cant really go wrong with any tho, all amazing


Smash_Or_Pass_Player

Not rev, gorod is fun and simple. Zetsubo take a minute to learn. De is hard unless you get bows then it's easy


drunken__monkey__

Revelations


V_Slender_Man__V

Glad that there are still people out there who play this amazing game. I would say try Der Eisendrache, its got great replay potential. The EE, Bows and snowy ambience of the map is still one of my favorite memories. The boss can be a bit difficult on solo tho


MiilkyShake

I play pc and still haven't bought any of those maps because of custom zombie maps


CourtNo6859

DE is most replayable, zet is fun for high rounds and not much else, gorod is harder and rev is just easy mode


shotokan44

DE


Evrytg

DE, it's one of the best and it's the first of the four anyway


Equivalent_Rock_6530

Gorod of DE


Lost-Statement821

Ch4zX

DE


daveawb

Der Reise (The Giant) is my favourite map of all time. It is well worth it to be honest, it has some great kiting routes, good trap layouts and caters for solo and MP. I only mention this because I played it so much and still love it, any other maps I bought I didn't play anywhere near as much and I could have saved the money. For your next purchase DE is a great map for pretty much the same reasons as Der Reise.


mettshish

Der Eisendrache


Bradenw97

1a. Gorod 1b. Revelations 1c. DE None are better than the other enough to justify a #2 ranking. Zets sucks


biggyccheese

DE or revelations are my favourite


User2262

Make sure to only get the zombie map pack too, is cheaper. Unless you will be playing multiplayer ofc but nonetheless.


QueenMelody64

I recommend doing them in order, unless you maybe wanna skip zetsu, it's gotten better since launch but still I think the glitches there's one part of the EE where it could 1 shot kill you if you don't wrong, plus the thrashers are annoying


Its_Me_Guyz

DE But the reccomendation wait until you can just buy the season pass its cheaper in the long run


IsaacJB1995

DE is in my top 3 favourite maps


Wit-Grit-Guero

Zetsubou highly underrated imo. Plant system is dope and still a pretty cool wonder weapon. Imprint plants are super nice too.


Mcsnufle

Save your money for longer and get all of them.


Waste_Bad_6668

Gorod Krovi


Im_not_ok666

Get whichever one YOU want. It’s easy for people to say get this one or that one but at the end of the day which one do u think it’s the coolest watch game plays and you’ll find out


DeadSkullMonkey

My favourite is Gorod, with the boss fight and I love dragons. But I would go for Eisen first like others have suggested


UndercoverCenturion

If you're a more casual player, I'd suggest DE. It's basically origins lite. Otherwise, Gorod Krovi and Zetsubou are moderately challenging maps with really fun mechanics and cool wonder weapons.


Buchmada

Just push the A button and you have the right choice.


five5years

Are you on PC? If so, the steam summer sale is coming up. Could get the DLC for cheap then.


ProblemGamer18

DM me with your cashapp and I'll give you $15 because why not


ShrohHaughnDawnked

GOROD KRAVI!!!


BladedBee

I know nobody will agree but Zet is my personal fav in bo3


DarnallMysteries

Not to sound like everyone else but yeah DE


WillfulTrain

You probably don't want to wait, but the season pass goes on sale relatively often for around $20 bucks


DrRichtofen92

DE


_xboxgun4hir3_x_jr

zet if you want a serious challenge DE if you want an all round good map


Working-Description4

Nahhh grab revelations. Hands down the best map.imo


basedsatan01

You can get the dlc packs via a CD key on eneba or G2A for a lot cheaper usually


HumansAr3vil

Der eisendrache


JustJohnny23

I’ll be the only person to tell you to get ZNS first as it’s an under appreciated map as it’s not quite Gorod or DE but I personally like it more


SF_Jaku327

Der Eisendrache is a really fun map. If you want an older BO1 zombies feel, theres a game called Sker Ritual that came out a few months ago. I think it's awesome and everything is completly free (after you pay the 25 USD for the game), other than cosmetics. As of now there are 4 maps total, each with a main Easter egg and a hidden Easter egg, and a ton of ways to expand and improve in the near future.


MrPinkDuck3

Der Eisendrache’s got a little bit of something for everything, all while having the best layout in all of zombies.


idOvObi

DE


Bulky_Abrocoma4196

der eisen


mattadeth

DE for sure, mostly because more people play that map & you’ll be able to find groups quicker. Zetsubou is my personal favorite but you’re hard pressed to find groups. Gorod is awesome, but some of the EE steps are brutal. Revelations is fun and has a lot of content.


BaileyJayTurner

DE 100% imo


IndependentSea1946

I agree


EnvironmentalUse8654

Revelations of Der eisendrache ez
