Call of Duty Classified is anticipated to be a Battle Royale. Here are five things fans want in a Modern Warfare Battle Royale mode (if the rumors are true).

Call of Duty Classified: 5 Things Fans Want in a Modern Warfare Battle Royale Mode

1. Create a Good Map

Obvious, but still important to point out. Make it diverse and detailed. The groundwar maps when put together all create a large interwoven Battle Royale esque map. That would make for a great starting point similar to how it was done in Black Ops IIII.

2. Balance Guns

While this will be the most difficult to implement, it is necessary. You shouldn't have to shoot your M4A1 eight times to knock a player when a newbie can run straight through and hit a collateral headshot with a shotgun from mid-range.

3. Improve Servers

This is self explanatory and (hopefully) won't be an issue. Opening day, if this mode is released, there will likely be a steep influx of players, so servers should accommodate that.

4. Keep Innovating

This should already be a top priority with all the Battle Royale competition out there. They can't dive in half way and expect the same response from Treyarch's Blackout. As long as Infinity Ward continues to innovate new ways to play Battle Royale, fans will continue to be interested in their game.

5. Implement CDL Easter Eggs

With the arrival of the new Call of Duty league, Infinity Ward should tie in the CDL somehow. Whether it is exclusive Battle Royale Operator Skins as seen in Multiplayer or even easter eggs of the teams or cities represented within the map.
