Weird Among Us Cosplay Lets You Be All 10 Players At Once

Weird Among Us Cosplay Lets You Be All 10 Players At Once An Instagram user is making "low-cost" Among Us cosplays using his own body parts to represent the crew members of the beloved multiplayer game. An Instagram user has found a bizarre way to cosplay multiple Among Us characters at the same time. The social deduction game has taken the internet by storm despite being largely ignored when it released in 2018. The game has reached such incredible amounts of popularity that the developer cancelled a sequel to focus up on developing the current game. Among Us, like the similarly explosive Fall Guys before it, owes much of its success to its adorable, minimally designed characters. The astronauts in Among Us are small, beanlike creatures, decked out like Skittles in bright primary colors. Like in Fall Guys, players can purchase cosmetic accessories for their astronaut, including hats, and even little pets that can follow them around. While players are mostly interested in Amo...

Among Us Players Spammed By ProTrump Hacker

Among Us Players Spammed By ProTrump Hacker

Days after AOC's successful Twitch stream of Among Us, online players faced a bombardment of harassment from a pro-Trump hacker on the game.

Among Us Players Spammed By ProTrump Hacker

Days after Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez's inaugural Twitch stream landed nearly 450,000 peak viewers, Among Us gamers were hacked online by a pro-Trump hacker.

Users reported the issue to Among Us game developer, Inner Sloth, who pushed out an emergency server update to combat it, as reported by Forbes.

Hello everyone, We're are super duper aware of the current hacking issue and we're looking into it. We will be pushing out an emergency server update so people who are in game will get kicked from games. Please play private games or with people that you trust!!! Bare with us!! 😰

Inner Sloth tweeted to users that they were "super duper aware of the current hacking issue," and asked gamers to proceed meanwhile in playing private online games only with users that they know and trust as they looked into the issue further.

The hacker who went by the name of Eris Loris was causing issues in-game on Oct. 22 and well into the evening of Oct. 23, as reported by Forbes. The user claimed to be able to kill devices remotely if users didn't click on Discord or YouTube links sent to them.

Individual players complained to the game developer that Loris was bombarding their chats with messages threatening users to support Trump or have their phone hacked. Other users took to Twitter to share their frustrations with the attack -- and the server update needed to help -- that kicked them out of their games through the Twitter hashtag, #AmongUs.

Players believed that this hack happening days after Rep. Ocasio-Cortez's successful Twitch stream is no coincidence, with some users calling the behavior "petty" and others confused about how being hacked would inspire them to support Trump.

Has anyone been getting hacked by Eris Loris? They literally hacking to get subscribers. Like that is actually stupid. They even support trump. Imagine trying to hack an among us server to get more clout. Ummmm... This is how I feel about them 🤢🤮🤢🤮🤢🤮🤢🤮🤢🤮🤢🤮🤢🤮🤢🤮🤢🤮

Other gamers called the user's bluff and proceeded to dox the user on Twitter; although, there's been no confirmation if this dox is correct as it doesn't seem like the Twitter user that's believed to be Eris Loris has replied to any direct messages or tweets sent their way.

As of this writing, Rep. Ocasio-Cortez still held the largest Twitch stream of any politician thus far on the gaming platform. The intent behind the stream was multi-pronged. She used it as a way to rally younger votes for Joe Biden in the United States' upcoming presidential election and as a way to speak to them directly about their concerns. She met younger voters where they're at, in-game, and listened to what issues are on their minds. She also helped new voters establish a voting plan amidst the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic.

Rep. Ocasio-Cortez was elected to the United States House of Representatives in 2018's midterm election. She took office at the age of 29, becoming the youngest woman to serve in the United States Congress. She is currently running for reelection against Republican John Cummings and write-in candidate Antoine Tucker. She identifies as a Democratic-Socialist.

Developed and published by InnerSloth, Among Us is available on Android, iOS and Microsoft Windows.

Among Us Theory What Impostors Really Are

Among Us Theory What Impostors Really Are Among Us' dastardly Impostors terrorize crewmates with various forms of killing and sabotage, and fans have theories about their origins and motives. The Impostors that give Among Us its name and central gameplay hook are, by design, a mysterious bunch. On the surface, they're nearly identical to Among Us' colorful crewmates, but Impostors exhibit certain strange and terrifying properties. Due to the game's lack of overt story, it's unclear what exactly Among Us' Impostors are, but fans have a few compelling theories. Unlike normal crewmates, Impostors have the ability to slink through vents, which - unless crewmates are small enough to do this, too, but simply have no need to - suggests they have some kind of shapeshifting ability. This would also explain Impostors' ability to open up a large mouth at the waist of their spacesuits and stab victims with sharp tongues. It's possible Among Us' crewmates also ha...

Every Among Us Kill Animation Ranked By Level Of Violence

Every Among Us Kill Animation Ranked By Level Of Violence Among Us is pretty brutal for such a simple-looking game with cute, rounded characters. Here's each kill animation ranked from least to most violent. Despite the rather cute and simple look of Among Us, the online science fiction game has some pretty horrific kill animations that are often shown when an Impostor is left alone with an unsuspecting Crewmate. This list will go over each one, ranking them from least to most violent. Killing is a natural part of Among Us as the premise states a parasitic shapeshifter Impostor has taken the place of one of the Crewmates in an otherwise productive crew of MIRA scientists, explorers, and researchers. Crewmates try figure out who the Impostor is while trying to stay alive, but fans know that death is an inevitable part of the game. In fact, the absence of one makes it near impossible to find out who the real Impostors are. Currently, there are only four different kill animations, but...

Among Us Map Timeline Theory How The Impostor Attacks Started

Among Us Map Timeline Theory How The Impostor Attacks Started One interesting Among Us fan theory offers an explanation on the origins of the Impostors and provides a timeline for when and where they appear. The online social deduction multiplayer title Among Us is a relatively simple game, but it's recent success has already brought about some interesting and complex fan theories to give more backstory to the space-themed setting. One theory gives a plausible explanation for how the Impostors came to be, incorporating each of the maps for more evidence. There are currently three maps in Among Us: The Skeld, MIRA HQ, and the latest addition, Polus. The developers are in the process of adding a new map, so this theory will only pertain to the ones already available. The Skeld is the primary map that takes place on a cargo spaceship which travels to the other locations. MIRA HQ is a tall building set high in a planet's atmosphere and is the location the Crewmates travel back to a...
