Among Us started introducing the feature of reporting violations

Developer InnerSloth has a quick description of the features they expect to update to Among Us in December. Besides some modifications, additions, bug fixes for Among Us content, this update also provides an anonymous reporting feature of the same players.

This is a feature that will help players report their fellow players when they find out that they show suspicious behavior or bad behavior in the game. That is hacking game, toxic, cursing, causing trouble . This feature will be added to the game along with the new player account management system installed for the server.

' This system will allow users to report breaches against toxic accounts or cheats, ' explains InnerSloth. ' It may be a bit rough at first, but some extra features like a friend list will be added after the update. ''

Among Us lately has encountered a lot of problems and their 3-person studio has had to struggle with it. Since 'suddenly famous' and from an anonymous game living hidden for many years suddenly became a game with numerous players, Among Us also encountered new challenges.

The first is the cramped server situation due to too many users playing while the manufacturer cannot increase the capacity in time. Then there was a situation of hacking, initially just for fun, hacking 'colluding' with each other to easily find the impostor, hacking the chat channel and then hacking and launching ads and threatening other players.

The update that allows this report is the result of many days of urgent work to create a temporary weapon to help the community defend itself against the wave of in-game vandalism. However, putting it in the game too quickly is also expected by the studio to generate a bug.

' There will be more updates on the server to solve the problem, however hastily applying anti-hacking can give rise to some game errors so cleaning them up will be a longer problem. '

InnerSloth explained.

' But rest assured because all spam threats are false, your device and information are safe. If you meet a hacker, ban them or find another game room. ''
