How do I get Proximity Chat to work in Among Us?

Answered by Edward Huber

To start using proximity chat in Among Us, you’ll first need to install the mod. There are several mods available that add proximity chat functionality to the game, such as CrewLink, Among Us Proximity Chat, or Among Us Proximity Voice Chat. You can typically find these mods on websites like GitHub or Discord communities.

Once you have downloaded and installed the mod, launch Among Us and join a lobby as you normally would. From the main menu, go into the game settings. Look for an option related to voice chat or proximity chat. It may vary depending on the mod you are using, but you should be able to find it easily.

In the settings, you will usually find a checkbox next to “Voice Activity” or a similar option. Make sure to check this box to enable proximity chat. This setting allows your microphone to transmit your voice to other players who are nearby in the game.

It’s important to note that proximity chat only works when you are in close proximity to other players. This means that you can only hear and be heard by players who are near your in-game character. It adds a more immersive and realistic element to the game, as you can have private conversations with people nearby or eavesdrop on others when they are close.

Once you have enabled voice activity, you can start using proximity chat during the game. Simply speak into your microphone, and your voice will be transmitted to other players who are nearby. Similarly, you will be able to hear the voices of nearby players.

Keep in mind that each mod may have slightly different features and settings, so it’s a good idea to familiarize yourself with the specific mod you are using. Some mods may have additional options to adjust microphone sensitivity, volume levels, or even custom keybindings for push-to-talk functionality.

Proximity chat adds a new level of interaction and strategy to Among Us. It allows for more realistic communication and can enhance the social dynamics of the game. So, gather your friends, install the mod, and enjoy the immersive experience of proximity chat in Among Us.
