Nobody does the overly complicated easter eggs anymore bar the people that want the gamerscore, because they believe gamerscore to be a dick-measuring contest that they must win. A lot of people don't care for them, and just want to spend 1 to 3 hours slaying zombies.

Plus, I really don't see how Zombies and Survival game modes in Call of Duty are all that similar. They're presented to us in different ways, not to mention that their gameplay aspects vary severely. Really don't see too big of a similarity there.

It's never been the same every time, to me. Black Ops zombies was a little depressing in terms of maps, with every map being either mediocre overall, or have some aspect that makes them terrible (monkeys, George Romero, that stupid sand trap thing, the astronaut), and you'd see nobody giving extreme praise for a Black Ops Zombies map compared to, say, Der Riese, Origins, or MotD.
