Sea of Thieves Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • Brionne_Person Alley (@Brionne_Person) reported

    @JeolladoDaimyo @SeaOfThieves Sounds like a you problem

  • JeolladoDaimyo JeonlladoDaimyo (@JeolladoDaimyo) reported

    @Daniel75986190 @SeaOfThieves He didn't reveal how he set up the sbmm in the first place, but it's only been five days, so the reason why it doesn't match is that the design itself is wrong. It also makes the game extremely tiring and time consuming, such as the whole bug and tdm crew hacking problems.

  • JeolladoDaimyo JeonlladoDaimyo (@JeolladoDaimyo) reported

    @kehylp @SeaOfThieves We have to listen to this problem. There are already 100 levels of players around, and the victory gained in the process has been distributed to new users of returning users PvE users. This leads to a loss of fighting spirit.

  • Brutaljuice Carlos (@Brutaljuice) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Can you throw this lag off?

  • JeolladoDaimyo JeonlladoDaimyo (@JeolladoDaimyo) reported

    @PapJani01 @SeaOfThieves They must be Davy Jones' coral crew, who played SoT so much that their brains were pickled in virtual seawater. I can't think properly. You don't know what the problem is, and you get the point in a strange place

  • JeolladoDaimyo JeonlladoDaimyo (@JeolladoDaimyo) reported

    @ItZ_Mowglii @kehylp @SeaOfThieves The majority of users say they've met their enemies again many times that have caused them to lose. There is a problem with this is a problem. Honestly, your number of games is too small to evaluate everything in the second round

  • JeolladoDaimyo JeonlladoDaimyo (@JeolladoDaimyo) reported

    @kehylp @SeaOfThieves Maybe they've designed skill-based matchmaking properly at the level of a normal game, but they feel they haven't thought about user distribution properly. Or, as you said, the design is not well designed, so this problem is probably happening.

  • JeolladoDaimyo JeonlladoDaimyo (@JeolladoDaimyo) reported

    @Brionne_Person @SeaOfThieves I don't think so Perhaps your problem is that you are ********** playing Pokémon 🥹

  • GreenBeanStream Green Bean (@GreenBeanStream) reported

    @chrishoulden86 @Tyan1_ @SeaOfThieves Bruh what are you talking about- even if he got in trouble for saying shitter he would get muted for a few days at most- not a gameplay ban What narrative are you spinning lmao

  • JeolladoDaimyo JeonlladoDaimyo (@JeolladoDaimyo) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Most of them only repeat one-dimensional problems such as "The matchmaking is too slow," "There are too many bugs," "Sbmm weird," "Please reduce the stadium," and "Get rid of tdm crew." Pecking the ground like a stray chicken. Please listen to the correct opinion.

  • thereaIrealfake therealrealfake (@thereaIrealfake) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Hey sot, i am experiencing a glitch where loot keeps disappearing on my ship. I looked for help on reddit and i see allot of other players are having the same issues. Just wanted to let people know.

  • JeolladoDaimyo JeonlladoDaimyo (@JeolladoDaimyo) reported

    @SadBarnacleBoy @SeaOfThieves Even though they went through the arena, they didn't make an anti-cheat program and didn't fix the same bug, so the bug in the arena was transferred as it was. Most users are using hack and ESP software, but there are many more users who are using it

  • JeolladoDaimyo JeonlladoDaimyo (@JeolladoDaimyo) reported

    @jaketheeemuss @SeaOfThieves Don't just think of it as a problem and raise the question of why such a situation occurs

  • JeolladoDaimyo JeonlladoDaimyo (@JeolladoDaimyo) reported

    @SeaOfThieves If they're not aware of the matchmaking problem and what they can get right now, they're going to throw the game away in less than two weeks, because this season 8 is very hard and they've found a lot of bugs and hacks.

  • JeolladoDaimyo JeonlladoDaimyo (@JeolladoDaimyo) reported

    @GREENRA56347271 @SeaOfThieves SBmm is not working properly and the players' skills are not evenly distributed, but the design is as if it were distributed evenly, so users of extremes are tasting hell and heaven.

  • Liars__Dice Liars__Dice (@Liars__Dice) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Fix the battle wait time first then come ask me again. Broken AF if you ask me.

  • JeolladoDaimyo JeonlladoDaimyo (@JeolladoDaimyo) reported

    @Daniel75986190 @SeaOfThieves I investigated this problem for four days and captured the problem in various communities and made data to derive it. But Rare says he'll play games and listen to feedback over the weekend, blindfolded and deafened. They say they want to win an award at Steam. They're out of mind

  • JeolladoDaimyo JeonlladoDaimyo (@JeolladoDaimyo) reported

    @mariusstapke @SeaOfThieves This is why I wrote the problem above. It's been a long time since the user who needs to get feedback left the game. But I don't understand why you want to get feedback from within the game

  • NamelessWitcher Yoshineta Fan (@NamelessWitcher) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Fix your game and add an Anticheat like the people. Or a decent reporting system, I can't be recording all my games to report shitters. To ban insults you are fast but what ruins the experience are the aimbots and esp hack

  • LaikaIvanova Laika Ivanova (@LaikaIvanova) reported

    @YooKaydw @SeaOfThieves This has always been like this, wonder why suddenly now it has become an issue

  • JeolladoDaimyo JeonlladoDaimyo (@JeolladoDaimyo) reported

    @SeaOfThieves There's nothing, there's something I hate the most, forcing people to do something. Season 8 forces PvP-hating users to force PvP because only PvP users can receive rewards. Reddit, Discord, Discussion Forum, already raising issues everywhere. You know what i means

  • JeolladoDaimyo JeonlladoDaimyo (@JeolladoDaimyo) reported

    @iT0mac @SeaOfThieves It's a technical problem, but if you don't have enough technology, you can create a game system that fits that level. It is foolish to try to create PvP game mode without even making PvE games properly, leaving existing problems unattended. For Rare, SoT is kids are no joke

  • JeolladoDaimyo JeonlladoDaimyo (@JeolladoDaimyo) reported

    @SeaOfThieves And write down all of the current SoT's dog-like problems here So that new or returning users can quickly quit this crap season 8 without wasting time and find happiness at home

  • UltimateX12_ UltimateX12_ (@UltimateX12_) reported

    I'm falling out of love with SoT because of the amount of complaining in the community. It's actually ridiculous that we are nerfing things that don't need nerfing but leaving alone the actual problems. @SeaOfThieves #SeaOfThieves #GettingSickOfIt

  • JeolladoDaimyo JeonlladoDaimyo (@JeolladoDaimyo) reported

    @Judrl @SeaOfThieves Do you know how long matchmaking takes? On the first day, it was within a minute or two. It's been 5 days and it's already been over 30 minutes. They don't understand the problem. I don't realize that the game is going down because the PvP population is decreasing

  • Brutaljuice Carlos (@Brutaljuice) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Nothing. The lag in these matches suck.

  • 2old4stream 2old4stream 🇧🇪 (@2old4stream) reported

    @cptAmbrossa This is one major problem. Alliance + toxic behaviour. I had this today on stream, two ships waiting for us. Super difficult to fight in closed area. @SeaOfThieves has to fix it alongside the blunder bombs issue.

  • JeolladoDaimyo JeonlladoDaimyo (@JeolladoDaimyo) reported

    @zJoca1 @SeaOfThieves Right, they've had experience in the arena, but they leave the same problem unattended. This is proof that as a developer, it's terrible.

  • KleppyShakes Shadeyy (@KleppyShakes) reported

    @YooKaydw @SeaOfThieves An easy fix would be to reduce knock back from blunders fired from cannons by 50-70%

  • JeolladoDaimyo JeonlladoDaimyo (@JeolladoDaimyo) reported

    @PapJani01 @SeaOfThieves They soon run up with their badly drawn game character picture profiles and say, "This is a bug, not a hack." I don't point out that this is a problem regardless. They can't think properly because their brains are pickled in seawater.
