Games Showcase, the head turner of the day was"Omnimovement," a redesigned movement system that'll let players sprint or dive in any direction for the first time.

There's also a part of me worried that Omnimovement will move CoD further in a direction I don't love. Modern Warfare 3's movement also positioned itself as a step up from its predecessor by encouraging slide cancelling and bunnyhopping, but those changes turned out to be. Now those same frantic corner hoppers can already have their scope trained on my head before they get to the corner—it's enough to make your skin crawl.

Another way to see Omnimovement and automatic sliding/mantling is that Treyarch wants to help further level the playing field between controllers and mice. Aggressive aim assist already does a decent job of this, but core techniques like turning corners, quick turns, and strafing are undeniably easier on PC.Keep up to date with the most important stories and the best deals, as picked by the PC Gamer team.
