With those unfamiliar, Infinite Warfare Zombies had an abundance of Easter Eggs and unlockables, ranging from the main quests to multiple step side quests to unlock the Ghosts & Skulls mini games, secret playable characters, hidden menu music EE's, zonbie exclusive weapon upgrades and much more.
The big one though, was Director's Cut. A super Easter egg reward granted to the player for beating all of the maps main quests. The gave the players permanent oerkaholic, 25k starting points and all weapons from the magic wheel already packed as well as the ability to obtain the wonder weapons from the box without having to craft them.
But wait… there's more!
Once the players obtain DC, you can then access a secret boss battle, Mephistopheles! This is done by beating all of the maps side quests again with Directors Cut active and collecting the Talisman pieces after each boss fight, and ONLY after immediately beating the last map (Beast from Beyond). Upon beating Mephistopheles, the player is given Willard Wyler as a playable character, who has a cool, one hit forever knife as his melee weapon.
But wait… there's more!
Now, if you use Willard Wyler as a playable character on Spaceland, you now have David Hasslehoff narrating the map and if you beat the main quest with Willard you unlock the 3rd and final cutscene.
So… do you feel like BO6 has raised the bar in terms of EE's? Will they have something big up their sleeves to go out with a bang or do you feel like they have dropped the ball? Would a Directors Cut style reward even work in BO6?

I thought here, he meant raising the bar in terms of the Super EE so I am waiting for that
Main quest wise? Absolutely. Most of IW’s main quests (the steps themselves) sucked. Either too easy or too convoluted
Side Easter egg wise? I’d say probably yeah. I can’t speak for everyone but never did much of the side Easter egg stuff in IW zombies, including Ghost and Skulls. Just uses the fortune card
Super EE? I mean this game ain’t over yet but I’m already gonna say hard no
I mean… We’ll have to wait and see but I’m not holding my breath for something big, especially when we are literally getting back to back Treyarch games.
I doubt they’re going to surpass directors cut. They already didn’t surpass it in the fact that all the maps gave you unique content for just beating the map alone. The new crew member and weapons on rave and Shaolin were really cool.
I think for Treyarch standards they definitely did better then the other games in terms of rewards
With BO7 I’m a bit less confident in a massive Super EE reward, feel like we’ll get something similar to BO3 but with more stuff
Infinite Warfare zombies especially spaceland is the most fun I’ve ever had doing EE in a zombies game
I doubt we will get anything like Directers Cut with the custom settings and all that.
Probably closer to Cold Wars where you earn a variety of things like calling cards, emblems, a gun screen and it allows you to spawn in with purple rarity weapons instead of common.
Potentially we can see things like Camos or characters. Rumor is we could see all 3 Pack a Punch camos from each map come as universal camos and the possibility of unlocking Edward Richtofen or a skin for him.
Fuck no. Unless Janus towers is the best map of all time, best easter egg of all time, and let’s be real it won’t be.
Far as super easter egg I highly doubt it, and we’ll get a calling card and a new bundle in the store for a completion reward.
IW had the best rewards for completing Easter eggs so far and that super ee holy shit it was fucking amazing ive never hated a zombies boss so much.
On the other, I’ll be happy to correct myself if proven wrong, I really fucking hope im wrong.I love B06 but its not even close to as good as IW zombies disregarding beast from beyond that one was trash asf.
I think people are confused; he’s not talking about super EEs (although its likely we will get one). It’s why he clarifies by saying “in regard to EEs”
Unless they are actually able to give us a full super EE bossfight (perhaps why we’re getting a 4 month gap between maps?), then I don’t think this game can outdo IW even with whatever gameplay additions they make
We also know they probably wouldn’t give us all perks for free or rarity boosts, cause then nobody would use those precious perkaholics and hidden powers they want you to spend money on
IW Zombies felt a lot like the result of “let fans create media” for better and worse
The result was some of the absolute best and most horrendous bits of zombies I have ever had the pleasure to suffer through.
It didn’t catch any slack because no one liked IW before it was even announced not due to anything Infinity Ward could control and then zombies “fans” refuse to allow anything new to actually develop before squealing about how they want their funny little racist stereotypes who talk about eating chips and sucking dicks.
I loved the creativity of IW Zombies and will forever proclaim that because I’d rather not just play another remaster of Nacht.
I’ll repeat, it had massive flaws. Like gigantic ones that were seemingly just fundamental to the design style of the team. Also, the engine (or whatever it is) of IW is a piece of trash that felt like trying to text in a dream under water in honey (especially after coming off of BO3).
BUT it was obvious they had the passion and no shortage of ideas. So I praise the game because I want more of that, I want that team to do more. Because if any team was going to listen to the community and actually see and improve on their flaws, it definitely seemed like Lee Ross was the one to do it
Bruh istg if we don’t get DC at the end of BO6 after they already hyped up a super ee reward… I mean, I will play BO7 but still😤
Directors cut is so far beyond anything we have had before or since I don’t see it happening.
To match directors cut at the very least we would need to spawn in with permanent perkaholic (3 quick revives like normal), everything in the box pack a punched, something like 75,000 points (50k to max pap in bo6 vs 15k in IW), and gold rarity on everything. I don’t see them doing that as it would stop some sales of their precious perkaholic and hidden power gobblegums.
While I personally don’t like IW zombies you’d be lying if you said that the Easter Egg bar has been raised. I love BO6 Zombies and I do enjoy the rewards you get for beating individual easter eggs, but the IW Super EE rewards and everything is just way too good. They could, but I don’t know if they plan to vault over that bar (I hope so)
