Woohoo! A new Black Ops is out! You know what that means: It’s time to go hunting zombies. Endlessly. Forever. Without pause. No extraction. Keep fighting. Run out of ammo. Die. This is, at least, my experience, in every Black Ops since number two.

You get your upgrades, you run around flailing your weapons until, eventually, the horde overcomes you, and your team is running around sporadically paying mind to only themselves. Meanwhile you’re thinking about those cool skins and bonus rewards you could’ve gotten for a successful extraction.

If only random pick-up-groups ever wanted to freakin’ extract, ever.

But they don’t.

Every single random group I’ve ever joined, never extracts. Most of them don’t know what they’re doing, and if they do, you’re the random. Ten waves. Fifteen waves. Thirty waves. Suddenly it’s time to go do something else, because life comes at you fast.

I remember back during the previous Black Ops, what was it? Black Ops: Synthwave? There was a really neat skin for the operator I liked using the most, and the only way to get it? A successful extraction.

No, I didn’t get it.

And now, because Activision is evil, those rewards I could’ve gotten back then wouldn’t even matter now.

None of it matters.

But I just want to ask my bros and brosettes, and in-betweeners, if, for once, when we play together.

Please.

For the love of pizza and beers.

Let’s extract, and get a successful finish.
