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...

How to Use the Quickchat Wheel in Among Us

The Among Us update to version 2021.2.21 introduces Quickchat to make chatting on console easier, more accessible, and safer. Here's how to use it.

How to Use the Quickchat Wheel in Among Us

Though communicating via a third-party voice chat service can make deliberation quicker and easier in Among Us, players on mobile and consoles or who play in public lobbies with strangers may only have the option to use the game's text chat functions. Particularly for players on Nintendo Switch, this can make discussions during meetings difficult as they try to type out a message in the allotted time. It could also make those players who couldn't say anything to defend themselves appear suspicious and get ejected before they can react. Players have been clamoring for a chat overhaul, and InnerSloth delivered with update 2021.2.21. The update introduces a Quickchat wheel with dozens of pre-programmed messages players can use to communicate. This feature makes Among Us more accessible, and safer for users under 13, who will be restricted to the chat options available in the Quickchat wheel.

Using the Quickchat wheel is intuitive once players get to know it, but all the options can be overwhelming at first. Players will need to enter Among Us' text chat, select a category, then choose a message, and then select which crewmates to which they want to refer. Players can also disable or enable Quickchat from the Settings menu if they are above the age limit. Here's how to use the Quickchat wheel in Among Us.

How to Set Up Messages with Quickchat for Among Us

How to Use the Quickchat Wheel in Among Us

To access the Quickchat wheel in Among Us, players will need to update their game and enter a lobby. Then, they can begin a match normally. When someone finds a body or calls an Emergency Meeting, open the chat box and click the icon that looks like a gauge with four sections next to the Send arrow button.

The gauge icon opens the Among Us Quickchat wheel. There are seven categories of message to choose from, including:


  • Accusation

  • Crew

  • Systems

  • Location

  • Statements

  • Question

  • Response

Clicking on each of these will take players to a set of premade messages. Any message that require players to name another, like an accusation or a question about a crewmate's whereabouts, will have (A) and (B) in the message. Once players select the message they want to send, a new wheel will open, allowing them to select the crewmates to fill in (A) and (B). For example, to claim that a certain crewmate is suspicious, players would choose the message that reads, "(A) is suspicious." On the next wheel, they can select the name of the player to replace (A).

How to Use the Quickchat Wheel in Among Us

In addition to every player's in-game name, players can also replace (A) and (B) with themselves using the option labeled Me, or suggest there is not enough information by choosing No One.

Once the statement is complete, click the Send arrow button to submit the message in-game. To send another message, click the gauge icon again and repeat the process.

Players can toggle their Quickchat settings under Settings > Data > Chat Type. The two options are Quick Chat Only and Free or Quick Chat. Quick Chat Only will disable Free Chat options, while Free or Quick Chat allows the player to choose in-game. Players can only enable Free or Quick Chat if they are over 13 years of age.

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...
