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 The main reason we are shooting for a sequel is because the codebase of Among Us 1 is so outdated and not built to support adding so much new content.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!

no puedo entrar me aparece un molesto rojo spam y es muy molesto
among us is my favourite game and I love it so much and I play more than 2 hours every day and I always play it with my friends but the hacking it’s really annoying me I want to cry because it’s getting so annoying when ever I enter a game a hacker coms in and hacks the game I’ve been patiently waiting for the update and when I read the announcement I was so happy that I will be out next month pls do something about the hacking I can’t play a single game because it’s just getting hacked and I am scared I get hacked and it’s my favourite game I really don’t want it to be gone😔 plz do something about this at least make a small update for removing the hackers and keep the big update for its self I am reading the comments and there all less than 30 minutes ago I really love this game and I thank you creators making such an amazing game like this hope you can do something about this thank you.
something different happened to me today, so I finished a round and the imposter and it was this screen:
Yeah man im sorry to tell you, but those are the hackers
I'm a modder but I'm stopping
good. Anybody who hacks on any game should go to tf2 or among us to see what they’re doing
okay but if you see YEETYEET that's me
if you get on among us
also if you are in the among us discord add me on discord so I can send you the mod files to send them to the devs imahqcke123266#0919 idk why my name is like that
Hey Among us, please help. I was playing and there was another hacker. The game had started and i called a meeting. I talked about proving im innocent for a little bit, then I'm banned from the server. It said "You have been kicked for hacking. Please stop." and i'm scared because i wasn't and i don't wanna lose my cosmetics
I get banned multiple times for modding but im stopping
good
Please, please, please add leaving penalties. Half of lobbies disappearing the second they don't get Imposter robs the game of so much fun.
There are leaving penalties in the game though if you disconnect intentionally too many times, you won't be able to join a game for 5 - 10 minutes.
Yes this is a great idea
btw you can change regions to get rid of that fucking homless bitch
what?
ThAt FUkinG HacKEr al Ways GeTs in My FuckING gaMe
P.s FuCkIng Ban Him Or SoMthInG
I wish I could infect aliens. Only humans and bats for now.

It's Eris Loris hacking it is very disturbing
it happened to me to
Ik about the hacker it makes me sad
Also when the hacker thing passes by can the creators plz plz plz instead of the option local instead can it be friends were you can friend people and see if they are online of not to play with them again it's way better than the local games because local you just wait there no one even clicks local so plz read this also I love this game thx
I litterally got banned for hacking but I wasn’t hacking
Same
but Im trying to figured out how to play it without getting hacked
I know how just ban hackers or toxic people (if you know what I mean)
but when I start a match and if when the hacker joins it immediately gets hacked
same thing just happened to me, and i dont wanna lose my stuff
same
lo que dice el hacker es que nos "unimos a el juego o nos hackeara y infectara, y después dijo Putin por siempre y Trump 2020 y mantente enojado estoy devuelta"
I wonder how long this is gonna last
hey i'm sure you guys are probably tired of hearing about this hacker but i have a picture of what they are saying when they go into servers. They are also making lobbies completely black and you cant even move or customize or anything I have only encountered it on the North America servers but I hear its been all over the game.
yup thats exactly what ive been seeing
same and I am so sick of it
this is exactly what’s happening to me in every game
This happened to me two days ago :(
yes its crazy
OMG!!!! please who ever is in charge of among us please fix this!!!!! We are getting hack ALL DAY! I wanna play the game but every time i get HACKED! Please do something! This game is amazing but if these hacks keep on going people are gonna stop playing! Do something please i love this game!
There’s only 3 owners... chill
the messages that I’m getting spammed are telling me Putin forever and saying trump 2020
i mean welllll Putin for life is good But FUCK trump
Mother russia
dude the man is combatting pedophilia
Please don't fuck trump. It's better to keep him out of the gene pool.
ASSHOLE! YOU TRYING TO KILL US? BIDEN IS ONLY GONNA END MANKIND! TRUMP CAN SAVE US FROM DEATH! LOWER TAXES! ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS CAN’T GO ANYWHERE! AND ALL GOOD! IF YOU DON’T VOTE TRUMP, I WILL CALL YOU A KILLER COMMUNIST(AKA, A CAPITALIST KILLER)! YOU SUCK!
First learn to turn off caps lock
Learn how to respect ppls opinions.
bro are you saying you would rather a podophile as president instead of trump? I mean I don't like Trump much either but come on anyone is better than a podophile
So I was Playing among us and I went on a server, and then it was just a black screen, it kinda freaked me out, there was two dark blues and one person, (the host and hacker) who had the metal bird mask glitching on and off of his character. I am red
The last three severs this has happened now!
F
Update: now I can't even join a game or make one
and the comments are spammed with his discord and the words vote biden
