David Vonderhaar reveals \u2018no jetpacks\u2019 in rumored Black Ops 5 David Vonderhaar, Game Director at Treyarch and de facto Community Manager, has revealed that CoD 2020 will not feature \u201cjet packs\u201d, following the backlash futuristic CoDs received. Since Advanced Warfare\u2019s 2014 release, CoD switched to a three-year cycle, seeing Treyarch, Infinity Ward and Sledgehammer Games alternate. However, following the mixed reception of CoD: WWII and alleged conflicts between Sledgehammer and Raven, CoD 2020 has reportedly been handed to Treyarch. Rumors have suggested the game\u2019s development is behind where it should be; as a result of the late decision to hand it over to Treyarch. While this is based on rumors and leaks, details on CoD 2020 are currently limited. Leaks have pointed towards a fifth installment in Treyarch\u2019s Black Ops Series, and Vonderhaar confirmed on January 5 that the game will not feature advanced movement. He simply responded \u201cNO\u201d to a fan who said that there had better be jetpacks in CoD 2020. It\u2019s fair to say the fan is probably in the minority of players: Black Ops III was the only advanced movement CoD that players did not overtly criticize. Advanced Warfare\u2019s movement was generally believed to be too chaotic, while Infinite Warfare was lamented as a poor version of Black Ops III. In a second tweet, Vonderhaar joked that he was \u201chung from the highest branch\u201d by the CoD community after the announcement that Black Ops III would have jetpacks. He even jokingly suggested that he has post-traumatic stress disorder from the backlash Treyarch and Activision received. While some fans were disappointed with the confirmation that CoD 2020 will be boots on the ground, the majority of players were pleased with the news. Such short-term memories. You hung me from the highest branch. No. NO. I have PTSD. \u2014 Vahn (@DavidVonderhaar) January 5, 2020 This confirmation from Vonderhaar would feed into the existing rumors surrounding CoD 2020 \u2013 that it will be set in the Cold War, potentially in Vietnam. While details are scarce and it will likely remain that way for a while, Vonderhaar\u2019s confirmation compounds fan excitement for another Treyarch CoD title. Many fans consider Treyarch as the most consistent studio, despite middling reception that 2018\u2019s Black Ops 4 received.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
