The Future of Among Us


Hey everyone, PuffballsUnited here! It’s been a very exciting time for us the past few months! We’ve absolutely loved seeing everyone enjoying Among Us! Forte has been working hard to get the servers adjusted to deal with the huge influx of players. Thank you so much for bearing with us through these growing pains. Hopefully we can get started on new content soon! Speaking of new content…

 

Us devs have had several long discussions about what we want to do with the game. When do we stop working on Among Us 1? What content goes into Among Us 2? The main reason we are shooting for a sequel is because the codebase of Among Us 1 is so outdated and not built to support adding so much new content. However, seeing how many people are enjoying Among Us 1 really makes us want to be able to support the game and take it to the next level. We have decided to cancel Among Us 2 and instead put all our focus into improving Among Us 1. All of the content we had planned for Among Us 2 will instead go into Among Us 1. This is probably the more difficult choice because it means going deep into the core code of the game and reworking several parts of it. We have lots of things planned and we’re excited to bring new content to everyone as you continue to enjoy playing!

 

Here’s some things that are coming on the horizon:

* Servers. Forte is still working very hard to figure out our server issues. We don’t have an ETA but things should hopefully be getting better and better. This is taking up all development time on his end.

* Colorblind support. It’s something we’ve put off for way too long… We plan on adding other identifiers for players as well as certain color focused tasks (Like wires). This should also open the potential for more colors. In the past we couldn’t add more colors because it became too difficult to tell players apart.

* Friends/Account System. This is something we’ve wanted to do for a long time but just haven’t been able to tackle. For the health of the game going forward we’re going to sink our teeth in and figure it out! This one will definitely take some time.

* A new stage! It is still very early and we have only just begun designing the layout. The theme has been settled on though! The next stage in Among Us is going to be a Henry Stickmin themed location!

We have LOTS of other things planned too, we just need to prioritize and organize all our plans. Stay tuned!

Developers, some feedback for you. Consider a more balanced algorithm for players getting to be impostor. And/or a 'penalty' for quitting a round before you die. It is getting to where players jump ship as soon as the game starts because they are not the impostor.  It is really hard to keep a good room going. Thanks!!

There are some language like Arabic you can't write it in the game. how then the Arabic people ..etc will play the game ? In your new update please fix this problem so these people can play

i didnt know that good observation 

idk why i always have an odd verision but mine alr have updated into(v2020.10.8i) and idk and every time i am a impostor, it came out and my impostor game is ruined.Please fix this for real.

how do you have (v2020.10.8) and the lastest version is (2020.9.9) ? and yes you will get these messages because they are doing somethings in the antihack

I wish we could speak by audio at meetings, not removing the chat that we typed obviously, it would just be more interactive let's say so.

yeah but there is peapole dont want to talk but they will chat

The servers are very glitchy/buggy. Getting kicked a lot for no reason. Also, can yall make like a forum for us to post on and stuff? Itll make this a lot eaasier with the game booming and stuff needing fixed.

can you add a add friend button plz

Es cierto que haran cambios sobre el tripulante fantasma?

I’m not sure if this is normal or not but earlier today I was going to play Among Us but suddenly i’ve gotten an message from the game saying “You may not join a game for another 15 minutes..” and so on. I didn’t play for another 5 or 6 hours,  but just probably- 9 minutes ago I got the SAME message. I have really good internet I’m not sure if it’s because I keep leaving servers or something. So can anyone tell me if this is just my internet connection or a bug? I would really appreciate it.

Must be a glitch. Hope it gets fixed. Maybe try restarting your device.

It litterally says that you are not able to join because u intentionally disconnecting.

Stop leaving games on purpose and then your bans will dissapear. 

umm my game crashed and that same message appeared

(+1)

Then you had left a game earlier and then the crash was the last hit.

maybe idk

I’m not doing it on purpose.. but anyways I either leave the lobby cause the host left or there’s only 2 or 3 people and no one else joins so I leave to join another server.. but i was in SCHOOL at the time and i was using my CELLULAR DATA and it was kinda poor service so that could be one.. besides that a few hours later pass i’m at home and once i click “online” i had to wait another 15 minutes. You could’ve commented in a nicer way 😐 thanks

Ojalá among us que tenga una actualización dónde las mascotas ataquen
