Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 is officially out for all players, and its extraction shooter mode DMZ is looking to be particularly popular. And unsurprisingly, the mode's popularity has brought a longstanding player request back in the spotlight: many DMZ players have been asking developer Infinity Ward to provide a PvE-only variant of the extraction mode.

Curiously, the developer appeared to accidentally show a DMZ PvE option, which briefly got some players excited, only for Infinity Ward to later clarify it was actually a developer-only playlist, and that DMZ remains a purely PvPvE experience.

Now that millions have played it, however, it's become hard to browse the DMZ or Modern Warfare 4 subreddits without running into posts from players pleading with Infinity Ward to offer a playlist where they can play the mode without the presence of other humans.

"Please give players the option to play DMZ without PvP," one Reddit user wrote. "Losing your operator, weapons, equipment and collected loot because another squad ambushes you is incredibly frustrating. Having to pay upwards of 60,000 just to revive your operator, without recovering any lost gear, makes it even worse."

Although some have pushed back at the idea for seemingly invalidating the point of an extraction mode, others argue CoD: Warzone already does something similar. That mode, for instance, offers options to players who don't want to deal with a core aspect of battle royale, in letting them respawn after death. And so the argument goes that there's no reason why DMZ can't do the same.
