Buried

"Are you afraid of dark, tight spaces? Confront your deepest fears as you battle the undead in an underground obstacle course of mental challenges. You are now... Buried."

- Map description

"You will stay forever!"

- Mistress

Buried, also known as Resolution 1295, is a Zombies map included in the Vengeance downloadable content pack for Call of Duty: Black Ops II. The Green Run Group (Abigail "Misty" Briarton, Marlton Johnson, Russman and Samuel J. Stuhlinger) returns as the four playable characters. The featured zombies have blue eyes, meaning that Richtofen is still the Demonic Announcer. Buried features the Deposit Box and Fridge from Die Rise and TranZit. The map takes place in an underground western town, and introduces an "evolution" of the Ray Gun, the Ray Gun Mark II, that is available on all other maps. The map also features a new friend by the name of Leroy that helps in killing zombies upon feeding him candies or destroying rubble upon giving him booze. A ghostly woman haunts the mansion found on the map; once inside the mansion, she spawns frenetically and relentlessly rushes the player(s), stealing 2000 points with each hit dealt, though she is relatively easy to kill despite her speed. Buildables also make a return, including the Trample Steam and Turbine. The map features a new revolver, the Remington New Model Army, a new Wonder Weapon called the Paralyzer, and a Time Bomb that sends the player back in time. The map also features a new perk, known as Vulture-Aid, which allows the player to see the locations of wall guns, perks, and other features of interest around the map. In addition to this zombies have a chance to drop small bags of points and ammo that can be picked up by the player, and certain zombies will emit a noxious cloud (upon being killed) that wards off zombies when players stand in it.

Easter Eggs

 * Buried has a main Easter Egg following the trend of previous Maps with the Trophy/Achievement being Mined Games. When completed, it will give all perks in the game until the game ends. This is similar to the "Big Bang Theory" easter egg that was completed on "Moon ".
 * Both the characters and any form of Easter Egg in this map is set to reveal major continuation in the Zombies storyline.
 * The song "Always Running " by Malukah can be heard if the player activates three Teddy Bears scattered around the map.
 * The first one is found in the entrance to the mines, sitting next to barrel near Quick Revive.
 * The second one is found in the Candy store, inside one of the candy barrels.
 * The third one can be found in one of the corners of Double Tap Root Beer room.

Other

 * The Deposit Box and Fridge from TranZit and Die Rise feature in Buried, allowing a circulation of weapons and points between all three maps.
 * If a large number of mistresses in the mansion are killed, a perk bottle will be dropped.
 * "Custom" placement of certain weapons onto predefined spaces by using chalk found on the wall.

Opening Scene Transcript
''A view of the Earth is shown from space, destroyed from the rocket attacks. The scene changes to a view of the moon, where a few seconds of Samantha's Lullaby begins to play, the camera then pans down to a view of Abigail "Misty" Briarton, Marlton Johnson, Samuel J. Stuhlinger, and Russman walking through a desert at night.''

Russman: Enough walking for today. We set up camp here.

They all sit around a fire.

Russman: In case you boneheads have forgotten, the world is broken, badly broken.

The scene changes to a zombie attack, in which four survivors fight off zombies near an overturned truck.

Russman: The dead walk the Earth, and what remains of civilization is at the mercy of forces we barely understand.

The scene changes back.

Abigail "Misty" Briarton: What makes you think we're gonna find something different at this "new place"?

Russman: I don't know that we will, but at least we'll be sure.

Samuel Stuhlinger: Uh, sure of what, exactly?

Russman: I don't know...

Marlton Johnson: His memory's going again!

Abigail "Misty" Briarton: Your name is Russman. Russ-Man.

Russman: That my first or last name?

Marlton Johnson: We don't know. You're just Russman.

There is a flashback of Russman in a city, standing in front of a building.

Marlton Johnson: Anyway, you're a former operative from Broken Arrow. You've been walking the Earth since the, uhh... ahem... "incident".

Russman: Yeah...I think I remember... A town...

Abigail "Misty" Briarton: That's right!

Marlton Johnson: That's where you found us!

''There is another flashback. In Hanford, Washington, Misty and Marlton fight off zombies with dual wielded B23R's and a Remington 870 MCS. Suddenly, a bus drives up behind them and the door opens up, revealing Samuel inside. He offers his hand to them.''

Abigail "Misty Briarton: When we met, you already had your lapdog in tow.

Samuel Stuhlinger: What do you mean, "lapdog", huh? I'm the only one who knows what to do!

Russman: Don't talk stupid, Stu! All you know is whatever the German tells you to think.

Marlton Johnson: I don't think you're in any position to ridicule Mr. Stuhlinger, particularly given your own proclivities.

Russman: You better watch your mouth before you say something you regret, boy.

Abigail "Misty" Briarton: Enough! We need to remember why we're here.

There is a flashback to the four survivors fighting off zombies at the skyscrapers at Shanghai, China.

Abigail "Misty" Briarton: We've all been jumping through hoops for reasons we don't fully understand.

Samuel Stuhlinger: "Fully" understand?

Abigail "Misty" Briarton: Alright, for reasons we don't understand at all!

There is a flashback to the survivors fighting off zombies on top of the bus in a forest-like area, and later in a flooded street.

Abigail "Misty" Briarton: Point is, we do it. We keep moving, we keep fighting. It's what we do. Day in, day out. If you really need a reason why we do this, I'll give you one. We do it because doing something... Anything...

Misty cocks her shotgun.

Abigail "Misty" Briarton: ...Is better than doing nothing.

''The four survivors look off into the distance. It is daytime, Meteors fall to the ground, and there is a noticeable glowing.''

Russman: The rift is less than one day's travel. We move at dawn.

Marlton Johnson: What if we don't find answers?

Russman: Then we'll just have to ask more questions.

Trivia

 * It seems as though the fog and ash from the missiles has cleared drastically, as the trailer displays that there is sunlight coming from the holes above the ground. Which can be confirmed by the hole in the tunnels.
 * This is the first Zombies map to feature the Ray Gun Mark II in its debut.
 * Unlike TranZit and Die Rise, Stuhlinger now has blood stains on his face, his glasses have cracks on the right side. His right sleeve also have a hole and he has a wound.
 * The new character is a giant as he is twice the size of Samuel and only uses melee attacks.
 * This is the first map since Der Riese to have an LMG off the wall.
 * Leroy appears to have the word "sugar" emblazoned on his fingers (though it is missing the "a").
 * This is the first time a player can choose the placement of certain weapons on walls.
 * This is the second Zombies map to be given its own HUD, with the first being Mob of the Dead.
 * Buried is similar to Shangri-La of Black Ops in the sense that both were released in the third DLC and that they involve mining; Shangri-La was a Group 935 base to mine Element 115, and "Processing" appears to be a mining area, possibly for Element 115 as well.
 * In the intro cutscene, the group can be seen fighting off zombies in a flooded area similar to Lahore, Pakistan in the campaign. It is possible this was one of the locations the group traveled through while heading towards Africa.
 * This is the second map that the player can hold multiple parts. However, the parts can't be for the same buildable; this will cause the player to switch parts.
 * This is the fourth time Pack-a-Punch can be used on round 1. In order, it is Moon, Green Run, and Die Rise. Of these, it takes longest to get to Pack-a-Punch on Buried, due to the steps needed to access it.
 * This is the first zombies map where players can go back through rounds due to the Time Bomb.
 * Once in the mines, players cannot return to Processing (where the Olympia, M14 or LSAT are located at the spawn), unless they teleport back via the fountain in the middle of the maze. Players are able to return to the balcony by using the Paralyzer and jumping up, this enables players to have an extended jump.
 * Resolution 1295 refers to the overarching social event between UNITA and Angola. It happens that Buried is located in or near the borders of Angola.
 * The opening cutscene indicates that the others now know that Stulinger is in direct contact with Richtofen
 * Like Mob of the Dead, this map features less weapons in the Mystery Box than Nuketown Zombies, Die Rise, and TranZit.
 * If you have done all Easter Eggs (TranZit, Die Rise and Buried with all Navcards accepted) for Maxis, he will become the new Demonic Announcer.
