Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3 continues the tradition of the Zombies mode, offering an enticing yet terrifying gameplay experience where you and your squad embark on adventures and fend off these undead nightmares. One such is the Extraction story mission which unlocks after completing Act 1 quests. It involves deploying coordinates to find Dr. Jansen, a physicist who specializes in Aetherium studies, who needs to be extracted from a hostile region of Urzikstan. Here’s how you can find her.
Locating Dr. Jansen in MW3 Zombies
As mentioned earlier, this is a special extraction mission that can be found by a blue running icon alongside a yellow star on the map. This can be found once you load into Urzikstan while in the Zombies mode. However, before you jump into this mission, you and your squad need to make sure they are equipped with decent loadouts as you will have to face numerous foes along the way.
We recommend you to carry a level two Pack-A-Punch weapon along with a three-plate armored vest and several perks like Speed Cola, Quick Revive, Stamin-up, and Jugger-Nog. You can also equip Killstreaks if possible as it will make it easier to gun down the zombie hordes chasing you.
Once you reach the aforementioned location, you need to Exfil out of the area, which requires you to wait for the chopper and fend off zombies until it arrives. Once you get into the helicopter, you will be loaded into a new location where you will be dropped into an orange zone and tasked with finding Jansen.
You will have to head to the Comms tower to find her exact coordinates. This tower will be marked on your map and once you get nearby, you will have to fight mercenaries and a few zombies. Watch out for these mercenaries as they will throw gas bombs at you. Climb up the tower, reach the top, and interact with a laptop that will mark Dr. Jansen’s exact location.
Take a look at your Tac-map and you will now notice a yellow circled zone that must be searched to find the doctor. Thankfully, locating her is fairly easy and you will find her behind a glass window once you get past the narrow hallway on the ground floor. She is represented by a blue dot on your map in the eastern region of G2. Speak to her and she will inform you that she needs to delete certain files and will now have to defend her from another wave of zombies until the files are deleted.
After the data has been erased, you will unlock a door that will give you access to the helipad on the rooftop, which is essentially your Exfil location. Although Dr. Jansen has plot armor, you still have to stay close to her to keep her moving. Once you reach the roof, wait for the chopper to arrive and board it. You will transition to a cutscene which will give you more details on the Dark Aether saga. Players will also be rewarded with 5000 XP and a Rage and Fire Loading Screen upon completion.
