Operation Critical Extraction

Details

Target

General Kang (North Korean commander, the HVT)

Shown at

Account level 3 in the official Story Missions trailer; unlock order not confirmed

Infil

Fixed insertion. The infil choice (Ground, Dagor, LTV, Heli, Cargo Plane) only applies to Dynamic Ops and Free Roam

Matchmaking

Squad Fill matches you with players who queued for the same mission. Other squads on the same server can get in the way of your objective

Mission Item slot

Starts every deployment empty. Items the mission needs go into it automatically, so nobody has to make backpack space for them

Weekly goal

Finish a random Story Mission 3 times in a week (shown as 0/3) for weekly rewards. What the rewards are is not yet public

Launch count

One of six Story Missions at launch (PC Gamer and Destructoid hands-on). Five are named publicly; the sixth is not

Fixed design

Plays the same every match, unlike randomly generated Dynamic Ops. Infinity Ward says no Story Mission objective relies on RNG. Longer than Dynamic Ops and pays well; a good first step for new players

Escort

Moving Gen. Kang means pushing his gurney through the hospital corridors by hand while AI counter-attacks from every side. Keep someone on the gurney and the rest on defence
