Why does nobody play Extraction?

Why are there at most 1 server running extraction, and why is it almost empty?
Extraction is my favorite map mode, and it was the main reason I got PR(Now there are so many reasons to stay). I find it brings out the best teamwork and I
enjoy it most, but the most people that I have played it with at 1 time was just 12. Another question I would like to ask is why will nobody play Helmand Province? I have only played it once, and found it to be fun, and yet since then, I have never seen a server run it.

There was a topic like this a few days ago, the main reason is that the rounds dont last long enough.

Couldn't they just set rounds per map ridiculously high?

Then you could at least play a few rounds before each load. I dont really see a problem with short rounds other then spending more time loading maps then playing.

Then again with before round timers set the way they are you might spend more time waiting for round to start (though thats gotta be adjustable right?)

There is no reason other than that server admins do not put it in rotatio. The idea that it does not justify load times is BS. To do the extract for both sides takes at least 20 minutes. Load time is about 1 minute. Sounds pretty damn feasible to me.

We could always start a money pot for a 24/7 extration server

The reason they do not go on long enough is that there are not enough people playing. The game is going to last a lot longer and is going to be more intense with a 45 person server than it is with a 24 person server.

We have a server that is running all extract maps/mode.
Pretty well populated too.

Main problem with extract now is that many of the maps have landrovers in them

And extract is very sensitive to whether the teams are balanced. One good squad will dominate the game.

Id like to see moskyie and helmand played more often (xtract).

Personally I hate street, and basrah is just so much fun in AAS!
