For Call of Duty: Modern Warfare there is likely a battle royale mode coming that will be played with 200 players on a huge map. The initial reactions show: This is what shooter fans are waiting for.
What has been leaked? On Saturday, a major leak circulated on Reddit. In it, a data miner describes what interesting information he could read from the game’s code. He mentions a battle royale mode for up to 200 players. It will be played in solo, duo, or even with squads.
The map is said to be enormous. It is stitched together from known battlefields that you already know from other modes of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare, resulting in a large playing field.
There will also be features that are already known from other successful battle royale games like Fortnite or Apex Legends. You should be able to revive fallen teammates with their token at an ambulance. Players who wish to participate in the match again must win a 1v1 against another player in the “Gulag.”
All details about the BR leak of Modern Warfare can be found here for you. Overall, it sounds like a mode that could mean a lot to the game and its fans. Let’s take a look at the players’ sentiments:
A thrilling, huge map – this is well received
Overall, the reactions to the leak of the BR mode are positive. Some players would welcome such an innovation and see it as a positive conclusion to keep Modern Warfare interesting and relevant in the future.
The Reddit user i-like-winds summarizes, “This has the potential to be huge.” Another user responds that the map would already be large. “It includes the two original Ground War maps and that’s just a small part of the map.”
This is how well the map is received: Other players are diving into the leaked map and demonstrating that it will be a large playing area. User Kalinine published an image showing all Spec Ops operations and Ground War maps that have been incorporated into the BR map.
Players say:
- “Holy shit, this is a massive map”
- “Yeah, it’s probably 3 times the size of Blackout”
Better than PUBG and the like? Often, the various battle royale games on the market are compared with the new BR leak from Modern Warfare. And Modern Warfare could even perform better.
“Wow, this sounds fantastic. The map looks large and dense, filled with points of interest. Not just huge open fields like Blackout and PUBG. The 200 players are amazing. Gulag and the loot system will hopefully set this BR apart from the competition. They have adopted the fantastic ping feature from Apex Legends. The gunplay in MW is as good as ever in COD and would work really well in a BR. I really hope this gets released,” writes Maxo– on Reddit.
Apparently, the market is not yet saturated with BR games, as evidenced by the comment from tupac_amaru_IV on Reddit.
“In my opinion, there is still a market for a solid and ‘more realistic’ BR on consoles. PUBG is trash on PS4. Blackout was fun, but I still found it frustrating. Apex is a great game, but it still doesn’t fill the gap for a solid and military-oriented battle royale game. This has my attention.”
What do you think about the leak? Would this type of BR be what Modern Warfare needs?
