Description
The Ultimate Cycle

Welcome to The Ultimate Cycle Collection, a crafted custom zombies map collection for BOIII Zombies that offers a unique and immersive journey through the entire Zombies Storyline. From Nacht to Dark Aether.

Currently a Work in Progress.

Other Crafted Zombies Experiences[docs.google.com]

What Is It?

In this collection, ive assembled some of the highest rated, or otherwise underrated custom zombies maps in a linear storyline based order.

Each map has been aligned in chronological order, ensuring that all included maps use lore-accurate groups [Ultimis/Primis/Etc] within their respective time periods, predominantly featuring historically accurate weaponry, and seamlessly fit into the overarching Zombies storyline

How Are Maps Included

The maps are included if they fulfill the majority of the following criteria:

  1. Appropriate Group From Established Timeline (Ultimis/Primis/Victis/Etc)
  2. Predominantly Historically Accurate Weapon Selection (Avoiding MW19 Guns In A 1945 Map, And Vise Versa)
  3. Consistent Lore Alignment with Preceding and Succeeding Maps (No Ultimis In 2019, Or Discrepancies In Events)
  4. Plausible Timeframe Placement (No Events Between Gorod Krovi And Revelations)

For any map lacking specific time or place indications by its creator, ive attempted to place it in a position that aligns with the timeline.

This collection remains a Work in Progress, with continual updates as new maps fitting the timeline are made or based on others feedback. Any ideas and suggestions are welcome to help improve this list.
