Is that a bad thing?

We'll see. But it might be. I like the extraction shooter aspect of it. Fighting the UESC bots is like anti-fun, so a whole mode dedicated to it isn't going to be good unless those enemies get totally rebuilt and made fun to actually engage with. And I think there's a danger of the extraction mode falling by the wayside if the PvE mode actually takes off, and that would be a bummer.

But, the alternative is just the game shutting down, because I can't see them getting many more opportunities if this doesn't work.

I tried to play for the first time in months a few weeks ago. I loaded into a trios match on Dire Marsh, waiting in matchmaking for five minutes, loaded into a match already in progress with no team mates, was killed within two minutes by a trio with purple shields, then turned off the game and played something else. So I understand the pivot, I guess. The extraction mode is fun as hell when you can get good matches, but it's clearly not working for them so they have to try something.
