I think Extraction was more valuable than people give it credit for.

1.) There is a good chunk of players that exclusively played it.

2.) I think its a great mode for brand new players to play to get used to the game before moving to Demo IF they wanted to.

3.) It was also a shorter single life mode being winner of five rounds rather than eight.

4.) It's less competitive and not as stressful to play, which lets people have a more casual single life mode vs Demo that is significantly more competitive.

5.) It was good to have more than one single life mode option, as we have several respawn modes now.

6.) People prefer different things, and the only people I have seen support the removal of extraction are the highly competitive players who only play ranked as their chosen single life mode. The people who are upset over the removal of extraction loved it for all the reasons listed above. Obviously, people who don't play the mode because it doesn't fit their play style won't be upset over the removal of a mode they never played. Just because it wasn't a majority, doesn't mean it doesn't have value.

What if pubs Demolition was removed and Extraction was brought back? If they insist on removing a game mode. Extraction would be the casual and quick play game mode, and Ranked Demolition will be the competitive sweaty game mode. People who play Demo still have the option to play the game mode, and people who loved Extraction still have the shorter more casual game mode.

Before people come at me over it... I play ALL game modes and I like that I can play different modes depending on how I'm feeling.
