Extraction: I have no idea what I'm doing Edition
By IGotAShotgun
I've seen a lot of newer players in the extraction gamemode who don't seem to understand the objective. The game could do a better job making it clearer, but until then here's a small rundown (Picture not related)

All you need to know
The objective of Extraction is simple: Take the blue things and drop them off at a target area.

If you're the collector
**Grab blue things
Press E to grab them
You can only grab one at a time
You can run and jump, but not shoot.
You can throw them at people, and the blue things explode

**Drop them off at a target area
You can use any area
Try and avoid enemies
Have a teammate escort you if you need one
Don't stop running

**Go grab another blue thing
They will respawn after a while, so don't worry about running out of them
Go for the closest ones first

If you're not the collector
**Help the guy who is
Use healing payloads to help him survive attacks
Use Juice payloads to make him move faster
TurretBuddy is useful for healing/Juicing, or denying enemies
Distract enemies from the collector

**Kill the enemy collector
Go for the kill when they're holding a blue thing, so they're more vunerable
Surprise them
Get Juiced, so you can chase them better
Ignore their teammates unless they're interfering

**Destroy the blue things as the enemy collector goes for them
Shoot them, they explode after a slight delay
Don't shoot one YOUR collector was going for


This guide might be breif, but it's all you really need to know. Now get out there and top the scoreboard :D

Great quick tips. Covered a lot of stuff, good job. You should add that you can also Roll with the Blutonium in your arms, I've seen people hesitate to roll, in case it drops the Blute. Also, if you shoot the Blute that an enemy carrier is holding, it will explode and guarantee a kill on them (pretty sure it goes through over-heal + shield). BUT it will take longer to explode, as opposed to shooting one that's on the floor. This gives the carrier time to score a point with it, before it blows up in his face.

Cheers, this detailed everything I was after. I just played a round of extraction and had no idea what I was doing when I was the collecter. I didn't know I had to press a button to pick one up, I didn't know I could only pick one up at a time and I didn't know where to take them despite the fact that I never actually picked one up.
