Is Among Us Actually Fun With 100 Players
Installing a new mod lets people play Among Us with 100 players. But is playing in a 100-person game actually fun - or is it just really crowded?
Over the last few months, Among Us has proven incredibly popular with streamers, players, and modders. Fans have invented a lot of great mods that can make Among Us even more fun. Of course, none of these mods are officially endorsed by developer InnerSloth, but they're still great ways to mix things up while waiting on new content to drop. Now, a new mod allows 100 players to enter a lobby together, but is it actually fun - or is it just crowded?
There are two constants with Among Us fans: people are always coming up with new games to play inside a map (like Hide and Seek), and people are always inventing new mods to alter gameplay (like the popular Voice Proximity Chat Among Us mod). The 100-person mod is a perfect mix of both of those, as it alters gameplay while also essentially creating a new game to play inside of Among Us' various maps. But before jumping straight into a 100-person lobby, there are a few things fans should know.
For now, the 100-person mod is only available on PC, so players on mobile or Switch will miss out. Installing the 100-person mod is fairly simple, but players will have to reinstall the game if they wish to return to the standard, official version of Among Us. So, it's not something that can be easily switched back and forth. Once the mod is installed, players are free to either create or join 100-person games.
Pros & Cons Of 100-Player Games In Among Us
As a social deduction game, Among Us is already fully of frenetic gameplay and chaotic energy. For longtime fans who enjoy that kind of chaos, playing a 100-person game is just about perfect. It essentially turns Among Us into a free-for-all, and it certainly makes the game feel more like a battle royale-style multiplayer game than a murder mystery.
However, it's also incredibly overwhelming and often confusing. The maps just weren't meant for such a large number of players, and newcomers may be especially frustrated by the chaos of playing with 100 people all at once. Due to the overcrowding, the graphics can be a bit jumpy as well. It may be a great way to enjoy Among Us while waiting on the new Airship map to arrive, but it's probably not something most players will use longterm.
Regardless, the new 100-person is still fun despite being overcrowded. For Among Us fans looking to mix it up for a bit, it's a great alternative - although, the 100-person mod may not be something people want to use for a long time, since the game just wasn't designed for such a large amount of players on a single map.
