among us 更新

New Year New Bean!!!

It’s time for a roadmap of what we’re hoping to bring you in 2023! I’m not allowed to spill the beans (hehe) on all the secrets but I think there’s a lot to get hyped about.

Confession: I was supposed to publish this on Jan 31 but I totally forget heh.

First off – we want to make playing Among Us an easier, more intuitive experience. This means big focus on adding multiple updates to the UI and UX (user interface and user experience, respectively) of the game. Cleaning up the account merging flow, updating the store to be easier to navigate, making it easier to see how you can report a toxic player… these are all things we want to work on, and more. We don’t want anything to get in the way of you and your tasks.

Digging further into our roadmap, here are some further detail for you (but I can’t spoil anything so be patient with meeeeee):

• Map 5:

   Yep, this is finally the year we get you a whole new map to explore! I can’t tell you what the theme is, but I CAN say it’ll have all new tasks for you to figure out, come with more cosmetics, and have fun surprises hidden around. We put a TON of love into our design process for these maps – you’ll notice that all our maps often have tinyyy details in them to make them feel satisfying and fun to play, if you take a look around. (My favorite details is the little bone anatomy image in the Airship.) We don’t want to skimp out on anything, so we’re excited to finally be gearing this map up for you to play later in the year!
  

• Improved Matchmaking:

   With Hide n Seek mode, new roles, and the customization of our lobbies, we realize that many of you want to be able to find the games you want to play more easily and quickly. That’s why a big focus this year will be on adding features to matchmaking to ensure you are closer to the type of spacebean experience you want.
  

• Quickchat Rework:

   Quickchat is a huge part of the game experience, and we want to refine the dialogue options while also making it easier to navigate. We’re always reviewing how you all use our features and systems, so don’t think we aren’t paying attention to you! <3
  

• Collabs:

   AwwWWWWWWW yesSSSSSS. Collabs are SO FUN for us to do, and we love seeing your reactions to the chaotic things we get up to with other studios. We have some big ones planned for this year, and I think you’re gonna freak out it’s so cool. (Maybe I am freaking out right now.) (AHHHH.)
  

• More??????:

   Alright so I’m going to tell you some things we would love to do at some point in the future BUT ONLY IF WE HAVE EXTRA DEVELOPMENT TIME, CAN TEST IT, WE AREN’T DYING, MAKE SURE IT DOESN’T BREAK EVERYTHING, AND IS APPROVED BY THE HIGHER POWERS IN TIME (e.g. platform partners). OK? SO THIS IS NOT A PROMISE IT WILL HAPPEN. I swear if one of y’all are like “uh but you promised in the dev log this would be out in 2023” NO I DID NOT. THIS IS ONLY IF WE HAVE EXTRA TIME. Okay anyway – so! If we have extra time and are able to, we would loveeeeee to add some more new roles into the game. We’ve already seen the fun you’ve been having with the Shapeshifter, Guardian Angel, Engineer, and Scientist, and how it creates a whole new way to play the game. We have a lot of other ideas up in our brain space, and hope we can share that with you at some point! Another thing we hope to work on are Friends List improvements so you’re able to do much more with the people you call “friends” (that would stab you in the back the minute you’re an Impostor but whatever).
  

Okay that’s enough random yelling from me! Thanks for reading through this entire dev log (because you definitely did right..? RIGHT?) and hope the beginning of 2023 has been treating you well! I am personally already dying and in a pit of despair but let’s not talk about that.

( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

新年新豆子! ! ！是时候为我们希望在2023年带给你们的东西制定一个路线图了！虽然我不被允许泄露所有的秘密，但是我认为有很多事情值得大肆宣传。说实话:，我本来应该在1月31日出版这篇报告的，但是我完全忘了。【6】

首先，我们想让游戏界面变得更简单，更直观。这意味着游戏的 UI 和 UX (分别是用户界面和用户体验) 需要更新。我们会清理帐户合并流程，更新商店，使其更容易导航，使我们更容易看到你如何可以举报一个不友好的船员... 这些都是我们想做的工作，等等。我们不希望任何事情妨碍你和你的任务。深入挖掘我们的路线图，这里有一些进一步的细节给你(但是我不能破坏任何东西，所以请耐心地对待我) :

地图5: 

是的，这终于是我们给你一个全新的地图去探索的一年！我不能告诉你的主题是什么，但我可以说，它将有所有新的任务，你想出来，带来更多的化妆品，并有有趣的惊喜隐藏在周围。我们在这些地图的设计过程中投入了大量的爱——你会注意到，如果你环顾四周，我们所有的地图通常都有微小的细节，使它们感到满意和有趣。(我最喜欢的细节是飞艇上的小骨骼解剖图。)我们不想节省任何东西，所以我们很高兴终于加速这张地图，为您发挥在今年晚些时候！

改进的匹配: 

随着隐藏寻找模式，新的角色，和我们的大堂定制，我们意识到，你们中的许多人希望能够找到你想要玩的游戏，更容易和快速。这就是为什么今年更新的一大重点将是在匹配中添加特性，以确保您更接近您想要的 spacebean[太空豆] 体验类型。

Quickchat Rework[我也不知道怎么翻]:

Quickchat 是游戏体验的重要组成部分，我们希望在改进对话选项的同时，让它更容易导航。我们一直在回顾你们是如何使用我们的特性和系统的，所以不要以为我们没有关注你们！< 3

合作[联动]者:

欧欧欧好耶耶耶耶耶耶！合作对于我们来说是如此有趣（我看是因为赚了不少），我们想看到你的反应，混乱的事情，我们得到了与其他工作室合作的机会。今年我们计划了一些大型活动，我想你们会很惊讶的，因为这酷毙了！(也许我现在已经吓坏了)(啊哈哈哈)

一些？？？？？

好了，我要告诉你一些我们将来想做的事情，但是只有在我们有额外的开发时间的情况下，我们才能测试它，我们的游戏不会死去，不过确保它不会打破所有的东西，并且在时间上得到更高的权力(例如平台合作伙伴)的认可。好吗？所以这不是一个能实现的承诺。我发誓，如果你们中的一个像“嗯，但是你在开发日志中承诺这将在2023年出来”不，我没有。除非我们有多余的时间。好吧，不管怎样！要是我们有额外的时间和能力，我们希望增加一些新的角色到游戏中。我们已经看到了你玩变形者，守护天使，工程师和科学家的乐趣，以及它如何创造了一个全新的方式来玩游戏。在我们的大脑里还有很多其他的想法，希望我们能在某个时候与你分享！我们希望改进的另一件事是好友列表，这样你就可以和你称之为“朋友”的人一起做更多的事情(这会在你当冒名顶替者的时候在你背后捅刀子，但是无论如何就是这样)。
