New roles have been added to Among Us, like the scientist role that can observe crewmates' life or death status. This role gives players a little extra help in catching the imposter. Roles add more strategic play, and the Scientist role, in particular, can become vital to the game.
Among Us has had many -centered fixes such as faster ghost speed, and comms corrections. There have also been several additions like new hats, anonymous voting, and 15-player lobbies. The roles, however, are part of the game's largest update since it was introduced in 2018.
The new positions in Among Us are gained by chance, just like becoming the imposter. There are some ways to play that can heighten those chances, and once in the role, the player can use special abilities. The scientists can monitor their crewmates' status and be an informant of the imposter's wrongdoing.
How to Get The Scientist Role in Among Us
Improve the possibility of becoming a scientist in Among Us by ing a game where the chances for the role are high. When ing a server, check the custom settings on the lefthand side of the screen. The chances for each role are listed at the bottom. If the game has the scientist role set at 100%, a crewmate will get the role.
This strategy is likely to work better amongst a group of friends. Groups can decide between each other the perks they want to be allowed in the game, and have the host set it accordingly. If a player s random online games instead, they will be trying their luck with random host settings. Randomization is fun if players are looking to try all the different types of roles frequently. Another tool for the host is the advanced role settings where they can customize the vitals cooldown time and the duration of the battery.
What Players Can Do As Scientists in Among Us
Once in the scientist role, the perk becomes handy. Notice a vitals option at the bottom right of the screen where the use button is. Selecting this will open the vitals , and show a list of the players in the current game, and their life or death status. A player whose vitals flatlined has been killed by an imposter. This gives a heads up to the scientist to head over to the emergency switch and report it. A definite winning strategy for the game that will be even more fun when Among Us becomes available on Playstation 4 and 5!
Tips For Using Vitals in Among Us
Players should wait until the right time to use vitals. It runs on a battery that is charged by completing tasks in Among Us. Start by paying attention to who is around who in the game. When out of view, check the vitals to see if one of them has checked out. The scientist must know who is with whom, and who in that group is now suspect to use the perk efficiently.
Crewmates finally having an advantage in Among Us will make the game more interesting for players, considering how difficult it can be to determine the imposter. With several roles and several customizations, players can juggle possibilities and outcomes, making gameplay unique to player preferences.
Among Us is available on Google Play, iOS, Steam, itch.io, Epic Games, Windows Store, Xbox, and Nintendo Switch. It will be available on Playstation soon.
