In COD Black Ops 6, smooth and precise movement is a vital aspect of intense multiplayer battles. Previous games had already incorporated fluid character motion, but Black Ops 6 takes it to the next level with the introduction of Omnimovement. This feature completely transforms how players sprint, slide, and eliminate enemies on the go.
What is Omnimovement in Black Ops 6?
Typically, traditional FPS games revolve around moving by running or sprinting in a forward direction. However, COD Black Ops 6 introduces the Omnimovement feature, which enables your character to sprint, slide, and dive in any direction, not limited to just forward.
Despite its seemingly small impact, Omnimovement greatly alters your approach to high-pressure battles and dispatching foes. In Black Ops 6, this feature is a game-changer, particularly on tight maps, providing a strategic advantage. By mastering this mechanic, you will prevail against more adversaries and prolong your survival.
How To Use Omnimovement
Omnimovement offers significant improvements to crouching, sideways movement, and sprinting in all directions. While crouched, you can easily survey your surroundings in a full 360 degrees. In previous versions, the character’s animation appeared awkward and the overall experience felt clunky and unrefined. However, in Black Ops 6, players can enjoy seamless and fluid animation as their character transitions from lying on their stomach to their back.
When moving sideways, the typical result is a decrease in speed. This leaves you vulnerable to being sprayed by the enemy if they can pinpoint your location. However, the Omnimovement feature changes this by allowing you to move sideways at a much quicker pace. This adds an element of unpredictability to your character’s movement, making it challenging for enemies to line up a shot.
Omnimovement not only allows you to sprint in any direction, rather than just forward, but also eliminates the restriction of previous games where your character would revert to normal walking when attempting to move in any direction while moving forward. With Omnivmement, you have the ability to move or run faster in any direction.
Intelligent Movement and All Assist Types
In Black Ops 6, you have the option to manually activate Omnimovement during combat, but the Intelligent Movement system can also assist you by automatically prioritizing the most effective movements.
With features such as Sprint, Mantle, and Crouch Assist, you have the ability to personalize when these actions are activated. You can either allow the system to handle it or take complete control and manually select which movement to use in combat.
Ever since I started playing racing video games twenty years ago, I have been reminded of the Intelligent Movement system’s similarities to Driving Assist features found in games like Forza Horizon. While this may be effective in a racing game, the assist system in a shooter game may require practice and muscle memory to master the optimal use of each feature.
Despite this, the inclusion of a refined Omnivement system and Intelligent mechanics is a valuable enhancement to the combat in Black Ops 6. These additions are expected to draw in a larger player base, particularly those who are accustomed to the movement and controls from previous installments, providing a renewed yet familiar gameplay experience.
