Der Riese/Radio Messages

These radio messages seem to be recordings of experiments that were performed at Der Riese. Three people can be heard within these messages; Doctor Maxis, Edward Advar and Samantha; although another person is mentioned named Sophia in one of these messages. For a video of the radio messages, see external link.

Message 1
The Message 1 radio can be found in the spawning room, beside a barrel on the right hand side of the descending stairs. It is a smaller hand-held radio, and Dr. Maxis can be heard.

Script: Static. Dr. Maxis: "Stand" Zombie Groans. "Stand up." Zombie Groans. "Good. Look at me." Snaps Fingers "Over Here! Good. Now walk forward." Zombie Groans and walks. "Excellent. Further. Keep coming. It's all right. Stay there. Calm down. I order you..." Zombie attacks. "Kill it." ''Gunfire. Zombie dies.'' "Bring me another." Static.

Message 2
The Message 2 radio can be found on a shelf at the stairs in the teleporter room behind the initial mystery box spawn point. It is a larger black radio.

Script: Loud static. Dr. Maxis: "Initiating test number three. Subject is within the test chamber. Activate power." Power is activated. Edward: "Look. Oh my God." Dr. Maxis: "Get a hold of yourself and clean that up. Test number three: unsuccessful. Test subject has been reduced to the same state as previous subjects. Clean up the test chamber and recallibrate the system. Let's do it again..."

Message 3
The Message 3 radio can be on a tilted-over filing cabinet in the room above the main cremation oven.

Script: ''Loud static. Dog barks.'' Dr. Maxis: "Edward tie the damn thing down. We can't have it running around during the test. " Dog wimpers. Edward: "It's tied down now Doctor Maxis." Dr. Maxis: "Initiating test number 5. Subject is within the test chamber. Activate power. Power is activated. Edward: "Searching for vitals. No readings doctor. And, the Subject... has dissapeared. Doctor Maxis we've done it! " Dr. Maxis: "Don't be foolish. Test number five is unsuccessful. Subject has vanished, yes, but has not reappeared at the mainframe. Recalibrate the damn system now!" Static.

The final word in this message is presumed to be now but static cuts the w off.

Message 4
The message 4 radio can be found in an empty cremation oven under Teleporter Z-A. It is on the right side ground floor when looking at the teleporter from the doorway.

Script: Static. Dr. Maxis: "Initiating test number six. Subject is within test chamber. Activate power." Power is activated. Maxis: " Damn it, Edward. Did you set up the device correctly?" Edward: "Yes Doctor. As per your specifications." Dr. Maxis: "If you had done it to my specifications then it would have worked, wouldn't it? As usual your incompetence has... What?" Edward: " Do you hear that Doctor?" Dr. Maxis: "Quiet you fool. Test number six is a failure, but the experiment has caused some kind of electrical force to energize within the chamber. Well, open the door." Edward: "Doctor I don't think..." Dr. Maxis: "Open the door now." ''Door opens. Dog growls.'' Samantha: "Daddy, what are you doing with Fluffy?" Dr. Maxis: "Damn it, Samantha. I told you never to come in here. Edward, get her out of here." Edward: "Yes Doctor." Samantha screams. Samantha: "What's wrong with her? Daddy, what did you do? Fluffy!" Dr. Maxis: "Come back here. Samantha. Stop her! Easy. Come here Samantha. Good girl honey. Gently Samantha. That's not Fluffy anymore. We must get out of here. Door closes. Dr. Maxis: "What? Edward what are you doing? Open the door. Edward. Open this door now." Samantha: "Dad. I'm scared." Dr. Maxis: "Don't. Stay by me, Samantha." Edward: "Goodbye Doctor Maxis." Power is activated. Edward laughs. Static.

This message allows the hearing of the creation of the Hellhounds and explains why they appear in balls of electricity. This shows the deaths of Maxis and Samantha. This shows that Samantha is the girl that giggles when the teddy bear spawns, talks when you throw a monkey bomb (which was another one of her toys) into the furnace, and talks when the fly trap is activated.

Message 5
This message can be found in the underground passageway off of the Teleporter Room Z-C behind the mystery box.

Script: Static. Dr. Maxis: "Sophia, this letter is to go to the Reichstag High Command immediately. Gentlemen, it is with the utmost urgency that I draw your attention to the lack of funding being injected into The Giant project. Well I believe we are close to realizing the ultimate plan, we still have several years of development before it is ready. It would be folly to cut our expenditure so early in our development. As you know, early tests on the DG-2 have easily outperformed expectations and we fully anticipate mass producing the Wunderwaffe within the next few years. Work on the matter transferrence has however come to a standstill. We simply do not have enough Element 115 to continue the experiments. The test subjects have survived teleportation but are currently unresponsive to commands and cannot be controlled. If we are to overcome this obstacle we need to increase the frequency and size of the experiment. To this end, I suggest we not only find not only a regular supply of 115, but that we also find a larger conduit to channel the energy. Our operatives in America have informed us that the US have a large supply of the element at the Nevada base, so time is of the essence if we are to stay ahead of them. This cannot be done if you cut the budget, nor can it be done if you insist on pressuring us into action before we are ready. I am of course available for discussion of the matter but in the meantime, I will continue with the work here and try to win this damned war. Signed etc. etc. Doctor Maxis." Static.

This message shows that the zombies originated from the teleporation tests. While it is possible that zombies were the initial test subjects, a zombie being "unresponsive to commands and uncontrollable" would be of no surprise, while, say, a soldier developing those attributes would be quite notable. The message also makes mention of Area 51, although not directly, stating that they have a large amount of Element 115. This links to the co-ordinates of the base during the message of Shi No Numa. Also in the Shi No Numa message is a reference to a Doctor Max, who may be Doctor Maxis. Shi No Numa is most probably where Maxis gained his supply of 115. This message could also be hinting the release of the next Nazi Zombies Map (if there will be one) in Area 51, in Nevada where the trend of stronger zombies could go on for the "Larger amounts of element 115". If this does happen, then there will be American Zombies instead, and if there are, then it is obvious there is a trend for the four main Nazi Zombies character's nations having zombies, therefore there could also be Russian zombies. Though this is possible, it is not garunteed, for it is a theory from all the clues given in the radio message. It is probable that from all the clues given in radio messages that another nazi zombies map will be made, possibly in Nevada, Area 51, or that Nacht der Untoten takes place there.

Message 6
This message can be found across from the Trenchgun spawn (outside teleporter Z-A), above a door located to the right of the Mystery Box. It is a hand-held radio.

Script: Static. Dr. Maxis: "Now, you must be very diligent with her Samantha. Owning a dog is a great responsibility." Samantha: "Yes, father. Oh, I love her." Dr. Maxis: "You must feed her every day, and walk her, and be very careful when you play with her. You know she's going to have puppies." Samantha: "Really? can I keep the puppies too father?" Dr. Maxis: "We'll see Samantha. One step at a time." Static

This message explains the origins of Fluffy, and that the other Hellhounds are Fluffy's children.

Message 7
This message can be found near the bridge, as you enter, go to the room Z-B, look at the left tank, the one with feet, and look down to the ladder, crouch, and press X.

Script: Static. Man 1: "For them I'm out of hope (cocks weapon), Auf Wiedersehen (goodbye), my friend." Turns on teleporter, an alarm starts to blare. A second person, talking over the P.A. system, Man 2: " Warning, the shield is now active" Man 1: "Dammit scientist!-(Unknown short sentence), they are coming, I have to do what I must, (to himself) God forgive us all" Opens door, choking noises can be heard, people can be heard all talking at once, some screaming, a zombie howl pierces the screaming. Gunshots are heard. Static.
