Why i hate hide and seek

[Sypheur27]

Hide and seek has always been something i didn't like about this game but i dealt with it. Until yesterday. I joined up in a lobby to play a game. the host said its hide and seek in chat. i of course ignored it and played normally and it was fine the first game. but then pink (the host) kept calling me stupid cus i wouldn't play hide and seek. so then they banned me from the lobby. the part that pisses me off the most is that i paid for among us. not a game i played when i was 7 if i wanted to play a horror/hide and seek game, id just play something like hello neighbor or hell even play piggy on roblox. play among us. not a children's game. thank you for your time.

Me too, devs could just have a hide/seek server for whoever wants to play this.

you're complaining about how you got banned from a game even though you completely disregarded the hosts rules what did you expect would happen. you had a problem just leave don't go to the forums and make a huge post over it

Because people try to get a bit of variation in their games? Check out Overwatch, there are plenty of lobbies which feature different kind of modes which aren't related to the original game - e.g. costume contests, role-playing.

I think I was in your game. I remembered something like that happening. I think hide and seek should be a separate gamemode, so I don't join a lobby and they turn out to be playing hide and seek.

I usually leave hide & seek lobbies as soon as I've entered them. I had one of those last second join session moments where I thought I'd give it a try. It objectively makes the game worse, and I swear that the organisers were making up the rules as they went along. At some point the impostors even started spamming meetings to lure everyone back. It's just not a very well thought out game. It's got nothing on the creativity of classics of alternate play modes like in Warcraft 3 or Halo. Sadly that reveals my age.

There are multiplayer games out there far better suited to hide & seek style play, and some that revolve entirely around that gimmick, but in the sake of fairness, none are as accessible as Among Us is.

It's not the most obnoxious AU meta, because an attempt at creativity was made. What I really hate are those lobbies where player vision is set to x5 and imp vision gets x0.25. Why even bother playing at that point?

I agree

[HoBoMiKe]

I would have left if I didn’t want to play.


No need to argue with the entire world because you found some people who play differently than you

You wasted more time staying there instead of just leaving.

well what they should do is make this a gamemode on skeld.net so people dont ruin actual lobbies with it, and i know it's "not the proper way to play the game" thats the point. play it properly or dont play at all

[ionkiller]

Lol you know you're in the wrong in this situation? If you went out of your way to stay in a lobby after they said they were doing hide and seek, then it's completely your fault.

All the time people complain about the hosts settings and ask to change it, guess what you can do instead? Leave and find another lobby, or create your own lobby and wait for people to join. Cmon dude.

[namik]

You aren't forced to join this server so you can just leave, but I think the host should name himself hide and seek so people who don't want play it, don't join in the first place
