The first act of Modern Warfare Zombies’ story missions will conclude with players deploying to a Terminus Outcomes mercenary base to extract Dr. Jansen – a researcher who has been working for Zakhaev’s forces but now wishes to defect. Originally joining Terminus simply to continue her research into aetherium (that was shut down initially by Operation Deadbolt as a security measure), Dr. Jansen has now realized the evil plans Zakhaev has for her research, and wants to use her research to stop
If players have enough acquisitions or schematics at their disposal in the pre-FPS game maps lobby, elect to take a brain rot or shatter blast ammo mod into the deployment zone. Shatter blast is useful when dealing with shocktroopers and armored grunts , with the blast radius capable of breaking the armor of multiple mercenaries at a time if they are in proximity. Brain rot is incredibly useful when dealing with mercenaries, as turning a zombie to aid in the fight against the Terminus forces can be the damage or distraction players need to easily eliminate all enemies . While there is no way for players to order a zombie to attack the mercenaries explicitly, when fighting the mercenaries defending the extractors, if a straggling zombie wanders over to attack players, if that zombie is turned he will charge the Terminus defense, giving players an opportunity to charge and flank the enemies and gain access to the extrac
Players should focus on quickly storming the beach and using the ascension line to reach the ledge where the snipers are posted – allowing players to flank and easily take the snipers down. Players can dart up the stairs to the roof over the resort pool from this ledge and grab another ascension line to the very top of the build
Once the first extractor is down, head for the second marked location and begin dispatching the mercenaries. It is important to remain calm and focused – despite the time limit for this contract, panicking and rushing is a sure way to get caught off guard by a mercenary and get downed. There is typically more resistance on the first two extractors , so do not worry if it takes more than a minute to clear the first, and if the timer is under one minute when heading to the third extractor. Remain focused and clear the area of mercenaries. As long as players start the disable process before the timer hits zero, they will be able to delay the launch and complete the contr
Quick Revive is also a huge help in situations where players get surprised by a surprise zombie or, in the worst cases, a surprise horde. Being able to disengage the mercenaries and quickly heal, dispatch the zombies and heal, then return to the mercenary fight, can be instrumental in completion of this contract. Additionally, the increased regeneration factor can be a literal life-saver when players are locked in place, disabling an extractor. Remember that players can lay down during this process, taking cover from most fire – as long as there is not a mercenary immediately behind the player. If players begin receiving damage while attempting to disable an extractor, laying down and letting Quick Revive work its magic can help players avoid interruptions in progress and having to start the hack from the beginn
With the Shepherd story mission active, players will want to deploy to Urzikstan and head to the marked exfil location on their tac-map . The exfil location will be easily identified with the same symbol as the Extraction story mission. Hovering over the icons will provide players with text confirmation of the proper story mission exfil. Players will want to consider acquiring most of the perks (if not all) in preparation for this story mission, which will task players with an extended escort mission requiring defense against a Mega Abomination boss monster. Additionally, at least level 2 Pack-a-Punch and rare or higher rarity is recommended before leaving Urziks
Players will not have to hold the Neutralizer at various points, like a typical Escort contract , but will have to e scort the Neutralizer for an extended distance while fighting off Tier II Zombies and Specials/Elites . Players will have a much easier time with the escort if they simply ride on top of the Neutralizer while eliminating enemies. While players will have a temporary reprieve from damage on top of the Neutralizer, but if players fail to kill enemies in a timely manner, eventually zombies will begin to gather and some will begin throwing chunks of flesh at players. If too many zombies group up, players can immediately get downed by the rapid throwing of flesh, so players will need to stay on top of eliminating the crowd that is not run over and destroyed by the Neutralizer its
Dispatch the mercenaries and push towards the missiles – once a bomb is planted, players should quickly move out of the blast radius to avoid losing armor plates. When both SAM missiles are destroyed, the helicopter will approach with the Neutralizer to be air-dropped onto the location. Players can parachute from the roof to the drop site – clear out any deployed mercenaries and surrounding zombies to clear the drop site for the Neutralizer. Once the majority of enemies in the area are eliminated, players will receive the updated objective on the left of the HUD to begin the escort miss
