Fining and Extracting Data Drives in Battlefield 2042 Hazard Zone- How to Find it
Finding Data Drives is not at all a difficult thing. If you are playing Hazard Zome mode, you’ll find them spawn randomly here and there over the map. Though they spawn randomly all over the map, the spawning rate varies. In some areas the spawning rate is high and in some areas, the rate is considerably low.
The Data Drives always spawn in capsules. The gadget to find the locations of Data Drives is called Scanner. The Scanner is a telescope kind of equipment that helps you to find the in-game Data Drives and mark the locations on your map. If you are playing with your friends as a team, remember to keep at least one scanner with you, while playing Hazard Zone. You can keep more than one scanner or if don’t want to take the help of it, you can try to find the Data Drives yourselves.
In every game, you’ll get two chances to extract Data Drives, and it is the main thing you need to do in the Hazard Zone mode. In your map, you’ll see the first extracting point is marked as E1 and the second extracting point is marked as E2. Once you collect at least one Data Drive, go to the first extraction area. You’ll always see a timer running on your minimap, signifying the time left for your current extraction period.
Once you reach the extraction area, a timer will begin for your transport to arrive. Now your challenge is to save the Data Drive and survive until the transport arrives. Once the transport arrives, its proper location will be marked on your map. You have to reach there to get into that transport. You’ll get enough time for this process. However, in the meantime, you have to save the Data Drive from your enemy squad and safely take it to the transport. Data Drives are the main source of earning Black Market Currency. You can purchase guns and gear using these currencies to become more powerful. That’s all you need to know about how to find out and extract Data Drives in Battlefield 2042.
