... Read moreOMG, I still can't believe we pulled it off! Reaching Round 101 in Call of Duty Zombies and achieving a Successful Exfil on Citadelle des Morts was an absolute grind, but so worth it. The final match time of 3:45:33 really shows how much dedication it took. I've been aiming for a personal best in high rounds for ages, and this run felt different from the start.
Our strategy was pretty solid, focusing on setting up early and optimizing our weapon upgrades. We spent the first 20-30 rounds just building up points, opening the map, and getting our perks. Speed Cola, Juggernog, and Deadshot Daiquiri were non-negotiable for me. For weapons, we rotated between the CRBR-S and the Ray Gun, always prioritizing Pack-A-Punch and elemental upgrades. The CRBR-S felt especially powerful against the hordes, making quick work of even the tougher zombies in later rounds.
The real challenge began around Round 60. The zombies become incredibly fast and hit like trucks, so positioning and communication were key. We had a designated training route around the main courtyard, kiting the hordes into choke points where we could unleash our full firepower. Field Upgrades like Frenzied Guard and Ring of Fire were lifesavers, especially when things got hectic. There were so many close calls, moments where I thought we were done for, but somehow we always managed to get those crucial revives in. My teammates were amazing, always covering each other.
Looking back at the final *player stats*, it's wild to see the numbers. My eliminations count was through the roof, and I really tried to focus on critical kills to maximize damage and conserve ammo. It’s not just about surviving; it’s about efficient killing to keep the pace up and earn enough points for re-buying perks and ammo. The sheer number of zombies we took down felt monumental.
For anyone else trying to push past Round 100 on Citadelle des Morts, here are a few things I learned:
Teamwork is essential: Coordinate your movements, call out specials, and ensure quick revives.
Perk management: Prioritize perks that boost survivability and damage output. Don't be afraid to re-buy if you go down.
Weapon Loadout: Experiment to find what works for you, but generally, high-damage wonder weapons or fully upgraded assault rifles/LMGs are your best bet.
Training Routes: Find a safe, consistent route to kite zombies. Avoid getting cornered at all costs.
Patience: High rounds take time. Don't rush, play smart, and enjoy the grind!
This was truly an epic session, and I'm still buzzing from the achievement. If you've been stuck trying to hit those higher rounds, keep at it! The feeling of finally exfiling at Round 101 is unmatched. What's your highest round on Citadelle des Morts?
