Black Ops 6 Dev Hopes Omnimovement System Becomes A Call Of Duty Standard
This year’s Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 introduces, among other things, a new feature called “omnimovement,” which allows players to sprint, jump, and dive in any direction. Treyarch production director Yale Miller said in an interview that he hopes this feature will become standard across Call of Duty games going forward. Miller also said it’s a bigger hope for Treyarch that other studios embrace a similar kind of feature in their own games.
In a group interview attended by VGC, Miller said “time will tell” if the omnimovement system is enjoyed and embraced by players. “We think of it that way–if it’s great, people are going to want it,” Miller said.
He added that people might find the feature appealing in part because it’s based in reality, not fiction. “It’s more actually making it capable for you as a player to do all the things that actual people can do,” he said.
