Warzone Will Wipe DMZ Progress In Season 2, Dividing Players - Kotaku

DMZ has players face off against both one another and mini-armies of AI-controlled opponents as they race to collect loot before successfully reaching the extraction point and escaping to safety.

It basically takes many of the ideas that made Escape from Tarkov a hit and adapts them for the feel and player expectations of a Call of Duty game.

Others, coming from the battle royale and Call of Duty side of the shooter ecosystem, appeared to be both shocked and unenthused.

While keys and contraband are already lost if you die during a round of DMZ before extraction, faction rank is something players grind out over the course of days and weeks.

In extraction shooters like Escape from Tarkov, players acquire all kinds of equipment and loot that sticks with them outside of individual matches.

Grinding faction rank will unlock extra gear slots, but isn’t the same as rolling into a match atop a small armory.
