I notice that the two "new" maps are last.

Fits right in to an easy blanket reason. The newer the map, the less it's liked. Because it's the new one.

Just watch. Map 6 will come out with and people will say it's the worst ever, worse than even that mushroom map! (Because it will be the newest)

I think people are mostly lazy and don't want to learn the new maps.

I rarely see people hating on Fungle and Airship say why they like them less, except big. Big is the only thing I see said against them.

I can go on a laundry list of criticisms, and the least balanced maps mechanically are Airship and MIRA, not Fungle.

#

Mira doorlogs are cool, i like mira but i will put it in the middle because i always die first after some rounds

floral plume
#

walk around the map a few times. you gotta have a sense of where you're likely to die in any given game; remember that being in the right place at the right time can get you to last longer

buoyant linden
#

Should try that lol

candid nest
#

I agree with this statement in particular.

While I enjoy (OFFICIAL, not modded) roles, the hugest criticism I have for Mira is it's horribly crewmate sided... without engineers. Mira really needs (randomised amount or everyone is) Engineers to allow impostors to make full use of the one big boon they have on that narrow-passaged map.

Without engineers, you can catch imps way too easily because it's too narrow of a map to get away with good kills reliably without venting. And WITH venting, all it takes is one person on admin and you're toast.

A high number of possible engineers are a required balance patch on Mira, to make being caught venting not a surefire catch. This is far less of an issue on other maps.

lusty ermine
#

omg public lobby imp teammates are so good!

buoyant linden
candid nest
#

And Mira NEEDING a bunch of engineers for balance means the map on its own is not

floral plume
#

it doesn't necessarily need engineers, though

candid nest
#

And y

lusty ermine
buoyant linden
#

Public lobby players will manage to make it impostor sided

floral plume
#

you can win games perfectly fine with any given role combination. Mira, unlike the larger maps, cultivates a playing field where skill is king, not just critical thinking

candid nest
#

And yeah Airship is an impostor-sided mess of a map balance-wise. I was surprised that competetive people didn't take to it fast though

Mira is designed to keep you guessing across a map that favors roles in any capacity in any given moment; all roles are accommodated on Mira HQ and the door logs act as your gateway to track everyone's path. comms is the ultimate defense because it disables all roles and erases the logs, giving impostors the advantage

#

but using the right sabotage is key to controlling the path of crew—it's all one big ol' balancing act that only Mira seems to take full control of

candid nest

Mira does have the best comms for sure

Fungle has second best comms I'd say. You can throw up an annoying barrier to both fix-it spots before calling, and have vent access to both yourself. Sets up an easy kill while ensuring no pesky engineers or trackers are a thorn in your side doing it.

as long as the vision doesn't negate lights or obscure the map to where I can't see shit, I'm fine with it

I use 1.5 to 2, I disagree

#

lights is still a hindrance at those visions, as it should be

how is that too high 💀

#

that's like saying 30 is too high a kill cooldown

lusty ermine

#

impostors don't need their vision hindered so why does it matter whether it's too much for them? 2 is fine for both sides in my opinion

I use 3 for impostors, though

vision?

lusty ermine

it is

#

if lights still obscures vision, the vision is fine

lusty ermine
floral plume
#

the impostors should have a good idea of what the crew vision is so they can plan their kills accordingly, which is why impostor vision doesn't matter (just don't have it below 1)

floral plume

2 has never negated lights as far as I'm aware

in all honesty, 1.5x is the best vision for my play style

#

impostor vision… idk they can see whatever the hell they want

#

as long as it's not any less than the crew

topaz owl
candid nest
#

It's basically a "gimme free kill" button

#

Higher vision for crewmates makes it so imps need to kill smarter, not harder. Takes away their free instant "Lol u can't see me" button

tacit cloud
#

what a gay opinion

floral plume
floral plume
#

and when lights can't do anything, it still disables the button and buys you time

#

so frankly, all visions are fine as long as both sides are balanced

candid nest
#

Yeah. Only one I disagree with is giving imps over 1.5 vision, and that's not for balance reasons.

#

That's for performance reasons

#

I've seen people mention that having vision too high hurts their game's actual performance. Weaker devices.

floral plume
#

ah, because it needs to load more assets in

candid nest
#

So I set imp vision to 1.25, because beyond that it really doesn't do anything.

#

Just enough to give them the full view of everything. It doesn't need to do more tha that since imps aren't effected by lights.

#

Crewmate vision is about how much of a handicap you want in place to help less skilled imps out.

#

(Which again, I will poke fun at "competitive" lobbies having super low vision. I thought u guys were pro, y u have to use heavy handicaps if ur 5 gaztillion IQ mega imposters?)

I also just really like what low vision does for game feel. On 0.75x and higher vision I see enough that I dont feel all that afraid of the very little darkness on screen.

#

But lower that to low enough (0.5 or 0.25) and theres places on the map you cannot pay me any amount of beans to go to when imps have kills ready.

#

Namely under storage, death valley, under office outside, etc.

#

When vision is low impostors control low traffic zones of the map, even if imps are not there. When vision is high imps control nothing.

Most new players cannot:

  • Play around having low vision as crew, frequently going to these dangerous impostor controlled zones without a good reason.
  • Exploit low vision as imp effectively. Failing to be out of vision entirely and getting caught.

Vision settings aren’t just some throwaway gimmick to spice up a match, they fundamentally reshape how players approach everything from movement to suspicion to survival. It’s not about “making it easier for impostors” or “nerfing crew” it’s about recalibrating the flow of information, which is the core currency of Among Us.

When crewmates can see too much (anything above 0.75x), you completely neuter the fear factor. You remove the anxiety of traversing hallways, strip impostors of any territorial control, and the game becomes less about deduction and more about raw observation and reaction speed. Lowering crew vision down to 0.5x or 0.25x reintroduces that critical uncertainty—those shadowed corners, blind intersections, and dark zones under Storage or Office become more than dangerous, they become unapproachable unless you have to go there.

manic spindle
#

Unrelated but a small thing I love about this game is the slight vision advantage for a player above another player.

#

If two players are approaching each other vertically, (one going north the other going south) the player traveling south sees the other player first.

#

The opposite is also true. You escape vision going up faster than going down.

#

So if given 2 otherwise equally good decisions of where to run after a kill: up or down, up is the best choice.

#

I also like this aspect of Polus's design too and to a lesser extent Skeld's design. A lot of impostor controlled zones are in the north parts of these maps.

"Guess who's lying. Go on, guess."

#

0.25 is too low and 0.5 is too high. Theres a spot in the middle that is balanced.

#

And thats really reductionist. Vision is a tool to restrict how much information crew gets just like task bar updates and confirm ejects and other such settings.

#

Crew that effectively work together game after game need a challenge or the game gets boring for them

# uncut trout I just got banned from playing thanks to a black screen again

Yeah, that 2-hour penalty for getting black screened—even when it’s not your fault—is brutal. The system really needs better logic for distinguishing intentional quits from technical issues. Getting punished because the game glitched and left you staring at a void isn’t just unfair, it’s discouraging. Especially when the timer locks you out like you rage quit, when all you did was… exist. If it’s a server-side bug, why are we eating the consequences?

pine gull
# rocky needle i never got a penalty... weird

Lucky you—some players get hit with the penalty, others don’t, and that’s exactly the problem. It’s super inconsistent. The disconnect system seems to roll dice when deciding who gets slapped with a cooldown.

Just because you haven’t gotten one doesn’t mean it’s not happening to a bunch of us. It’s a bugged punishment system, not a skill issue.

pine gull
# rocky needle i feel like there is something wrong with role giver since i heard unity random ...

Yeah, I totally get that. Unity’s RNG (random number generator) isn’t broken exactly, but it definitely doesn’t feel balanced sometimes—especially in games like Among Us where roles matter so much. It’s technically random, but the algorithm they use can create weird streaks.

So while it’s “fair” over time, it really doesn’t feel that way when someone keeps getting impostor multiple rounds in a row and you’re stuck as crew every single time. It’s frustrating, and you’re definitely not the only one who feels like something’s off.

I haven't noticed much wrong with Unity's rng

#

it seems fine to me

pine gull
# rich notch That's literally just how RNG works

Sure, that’s technically how RNG works, but saying that oversimplifies the actual experience players go through. When a system uses pseudo-random logic (like Unity’s Random.Range), it’s not truly random—it follows mathematical patterns and can create perception issues like streaks or favoritism, even if it’s unintentional.

And when you have a game mode where certain roles are more fun or impactful (like Impostor), being stuck as crew 25 games in a row doesn’t feel like RNG—it feels broken.

rich notch
#

Idk how else to explain it other than luck

rocky needle
#

i wish they rewrote the random making it favor people who were crew more

pine gull
# rich notch Idk how else to explain it other than luck

That’s fair, and yeah: luck is definitely part of it. But the problem is that how that luck is generated can heavily affect the player experience.

When a role like Impostor is way more engaging for a lot of players, and the randomness feels like it’s locking you out round after round, it stops feeling like “bad luck” and starts feeling like the system itself isn’t doing enough to keep things fresh or fair.

So sure, technically it’s “just luck,” but in a game built around social deduction and varied experiences, the way luck is handled matters. That’s why smarter random systems exist to avoid burning players out with the illusion of bias.

rich notch
#

But you see, in a social deduction game like among us, if you create a random system that isn't equal the entire time, it can become quite easy to simply keep a tally of how many rounds certain players haven't been imp for and use it to metagame

#

And people will very likely abuse that

pine gull
#

That’s the real challenge. If the RNG system tries to “balance” Impostor turns by prioritizing players who haven’t had it in a while, you end up creating a pattern people can game. It becomes predictable, and suddenly you’re not deducing anymore; you’re counting rounds.

But at the same time, when the randomness feels too random (like someone not getting Impostor for 50+ games), it starts to kill motivation. There’s a line between true fairness and perceived fairness, and Among Us’s current RNG leans too heavily on the “true” side without accounting for how stale it can feel.

rich notch
#

It's a hard thing to work around

pine gull
#

It really is. You’re basically trying to strike a balance between statistical fairness, gameplay integrity, and player morale—all at once. If it’s too fair and tries to equalize roles, players can track the algorithm and start metagaming.
But if it’s purely random, people feel ignored, like the game forgot they exist.

At the end of the day, it’s a social game, feeling included matters. Even if you’re not Imp often, you should never feel like you’re excluded by the system. So yeah, it’s hard to fix… but it’s definitely not impossible to improve.

i should try playing on polus more

maybe mira

royal warren

I mean, all maps can be fun under the right (idk how to pronounce this word so please correct me) circumstances, settings and player count.

#

I think the OG 3 work fine with up to 10 people, while the latter to are designed for 15.

#

(Skeld or Mira with 15 is just unplayable, those maps were NOT designed for that many beans running around)

tacit cloud
#

honestly 15 on skeld or mira is playable if you're in a public lobby
like 5 people will leave because they're not the impostor

royal warren
#

Sometimes more people leave and you instantly lose the game-

tacit cloud

lmaooo i remember i set the speed and vision to the lowest and 6 seconds after we "won" because a lot of people left

#

😈

royal warren
#

I mean, sometimes I agree with the mindset of "winning is winning", but victory by abandoning Crew not only is the most boring and lame victory, but also at that point, why even bother on playing if people just abandon?

I gave up with public for a reason.

pure chaos

royal warren

On all my time playing public it was less chaos and more frustration tbh

i can understand, all of them always ask me to make the speed higher NO MATTER how high it already is

they don't check the settings and always assume visuals and roles are on

Colorblind text should be on by default when you first start the game.

THAT'S WHAT I'VE BEEN SAYINGGG

they should actually do this

Sometimes I say "Vote Brown", and "my friends" split the votes between Tan and Maroon, and the actual Brown just gets away.

maybe make it an event, competition

#

That sounds fun

tacit cloud
#

the most voted cosmetics get into the game

pine gull
#

On the good side, user-generated hats could seriously boost community creativity and engagement. People love seeing their work in-game—it gives them a reason to stay invested, promote the game, and treat cosmetic content like actual art.
It could also lighten the design workload for Innersloth, letting them focus on quality-of-life updates while the community keeps cosmetics fresh.

rich notch
#

Look at GD for example

pine gull
#

I just want a anime cosmicube that’s all I’m asking for

tacit cloud
#

games that add user-generated content into the game are the best

royal warren

But that will never happen as contracts forms agreements between studios like MAPPA will be effective.

dothack x among us collab pls

rustic dagger

What If Angry Birds x Among Us

tacit cloud
#

LMAOOOO

pine gull
# pine gull On the good side, user-generated hats could seriously boost community creativity...

But on the bad side, opening the floodgates to user-generated content means moderation hell. People will submit everything from copyrighted material to offensive designs, and suddenly Innersloth would need an entire curation team just to keep things clean and brand-safe.

Not to mention, it could completely mess with the visual identity of the game. Among Us thrives off its simplicity and charm—flooding it with clashing art styles or meme hats risks making it look chaotic and inconsistent. And if it’s all locked behind limited-time Cosmicubes, it could also trigger extreme FOMO and widen the gap between casual and obsessive players.

tacit cloud
# royal warren still, what is an arcane-

"Arcane" refers to something that is secret, mysterious, and known or understood by only a few people. It can describe knowledge, practices, or even objects that are hidden from the general public and require special understanding or initiation to access.

pine gull
#

I want an impostor cosmicube

rustic dagger
#

Oh, the sharp tounge one

royal warren
#

Could be both in some way.
Crew's more oriented to Skeld or science side, Impostors leaning more torwards... idk.

pine gull
rustic dagger
#

If they add that fake shapeshifter egg as a cosmetic skin, they're gonna get confused and think that some crewmate got caught 'shifting', Imagine that

gray nexus
#

i think lower cooldowns are better for roles (except kcd)

brittle moss
royal warren
#

Impostor roles on the other hand... Phantom has 15s of cooldown and 30s of duration (Default). Shapeshifter has 30s of cooldown and 15s of duration, leaves evidence.

#

While Impostor roles may seem bad here, it is somewhat compensated with a 35s kill cooldown, and a 3rd regular Impostor partner.

gray nexus
#

i think it'd be a good yet balanced game if most roles have lesser cooldowns. mainly because it can lead to more potential for risk and forces them to work under a short time

royal warren
#

I only do roles undert 2 specific scenarios:
-12 players (2v10)
-15 players (3v12)

#

Anything 10 players or less usually won't have roles.

gray nexus
#

for example the shapeshifter. In a lobby where it had a 15dur 5cd residue. it would make it convienient for the impostors but make it more risky because its a short shifting time. THis happened to me and i almost lost the match but they thankfully didnt see me
