  • little_lizard17 Little_lizard_metal (@little_lizard17) reported

    @shlonovic @SeaOfThieves I had a similar issue. Emissary didn’t raise, but when my ship got sunk the flag said grade 3. Then when we sold our loot, we never got any of the gold bonus, just the regular

  • BakedVirginia Mapleshades (@BakedVirginia) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Rough timing. Servers busy/broken Sunday, then the event is over right when we ESTers are getting off work :(

  • EMMOLATION_ EMMOLATION (@EMMOLATION_) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Completely missed the last bit of the even because of a goddamned Lavenderbeard error.

  • CGallerine Gallerine (@CGallerine) reported

    @MileticIlija1 @SeaOfThieves you'll have your gold and rep next time you log in, and now that community day is over, you won't have login issues anymore

  • 1_kulik 1Kulik (@1_kulik) reported

    @Nicolas_Iturri @SeaOfThieves You sound like a spoiled brat. These big events have issues and you should have expected it. I was planning to play too but my friends said they have issues connecting so I played later when there is less trafic. Can you stop crying?

  • StainiakGaming StainiakGaming (@StainiakGaming) reported

    I think I'm done with @SeaOfThieves as a game now. I can't continue to fight to enjoy a game with a core mechanic that's so utterly broken as hit reg.

  • 1_kulik 1Kulik (@1_kulik) reported

    @Nicolas_Iturri @SeaOfThieves I had no problems joining the servers. Maybe because I waited till you kids went sleeping. Or was just lucky. I guess you dont know the reason why the servers didnt work? The event was overhyped and they werent ready.

  • InsaneSpyro Spyro_The_Arceus (@InsaneSpyro) reported

    @Silentx_Rage5 @SeaOfThieves not supporting and deleting it are 2 different things. when arena closes where do you think all them PVP sweats are going to go, that broken golden sands prepare to have it camped by frustrated pvp players like pixels, flacor and so on because there is less pvp places to go

  • gentry1288 Devon Gentry (@gentry1288) reported

    @Yoshimitsu42069 @SeaOfThieves Still broken didn’t miss much i was “lucky” to have the day off took me a half hour to buy merchant crates to have the game crash from the buying lag to come back to my ship being sunk. Terrible community event

  • Ames10k Rowboat Ruby (@Ames10k) reported

    @Pharaoh_Rising @SeaOfThieves I'm on the east coast. Couldn't even get past all the beard errors until 4 30 pm anyway 🙄

  • Gatorsaurus Spooky. 🎃 (@Gatorsaurus) reported

    @cha2t3r @KaijuFanaticc @SeaOfThieves The game would be broken and dead. If people could grind without risk. Also there's discord groups you can join that does just that. If y'all are scared by PVP.

  • scarletshackles scarlet (@scarletshackles) reported

    @SeaOfThieves No crew since I couldn't login and had to sleep and your silly extension of 12 hours did nothing to remedy it :)

  • gentry1288 Devon Gentry (@gentry1288) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Fix whatever is going on and do community day as a whole weekend event since this community event is still messed up. Can’t even get any quest, selling stuff doesn’t even register, can’t buy merchant crates. Awesome community event when the community can’t even participate… 👌

  • yomomma91364091 yo momma (@yomomma91364091) reported

    @SeaOfThieves well so much for community day after trying to load for an hour solid just getting “we can’t connect you to the sea of thieves servers” i can’t buy quests or supplies, i can’t get stuff out of barrels, i can’t even pull out my equipment. please fix the servers!!!

  • frankcasillas50 Frank (@frankcasillas50) reported

    Im still having issues logging into sea of thieves! This game needs better servers asap @SeaOfThieves

  • StainiakGaming StainiakGaming (@StainiakGaming) reported

    I think I'm done with @SeaOfThieves as a game now. I can't continue to play a game for a core mechanic that's as utterly broken as hit reg.

  • CrewMisfortune Crew of Misfortune (@CrewMisfortune) reported

    Anybody else getting an Alabasterbeard error when loading into servers? @SoT_Support #SeaOfThievesCommunityDay #SeaOfThieves

  • BlueJediSith BlueJediSith (@BlueJediSith) reported

    I stole another chest of legends today. Logged off for an hour. Log back in, to check my emissary #’s. My gold, doubloons & Ancient coin are all at 0. Either there’s server issues again, or the Pirate I stole the Chest of Legends from, somehow stole all my #SeaofThieves funds

  • MileticIlija1 elijah (@MileticIlija1) reported

    @CGallerine @SeaOfThieves Still, why would I play the game if it kicks me after it lets me in most of the time? And if it’s a “visual issue” I still cannot buy anything because it says I don’t have enough gold?

  • CrushingDescent (´ω`)っ旦~~ have a tea (@CrushingDescent) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Well, this was completely pointless. Couldn't login for an entire DAY and you give us 12 hours, that is, if you're not in the US and busy during daylight hours, in which case you get nothing! So, thanks for nothing, some "community" day.

  • Scarecrow017 Portgas🌸 (@Scarecrow017) reported

    @SeaOfThieves only 12 hours ? this event was trash, even now the servers work like ****, it took more than 5 mins to login, and you cant buy stuff to the merchant alliance because "there was an error with your inventory" Great event and compensation to your playres!

  • degeezer2 degeezer2 (@degeezer2) reported

    @Nxah22 @ParkerStouffer1 @SeaOfThieves It’s a visual glitch I had it earlier twice just had to keep restarting which was annoying but I got my stuff back

  • AmberSweatpants Amber (@AmberSweatpants) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Some event. Not about the community at all since most couldn't play. On top of yall issues xbox had issues right afterwards but what do you guys care. Thats what I get for putting faith in a company not a game.

  • Azuki03783919 Azuki (@Azuki03783919) reported

    @Seaofthieves servers are currently clunky for anyone trying to play, they're aware and are working on the issue! #SeaOfThieves #Seaofthievescommunity

  • ImWetShelly WetShelly (@ImWetShelly) reported

    @LPBrako @SeaOfThieves Thanks it was so hard. Yesterday was so struggling with connection issues and no party chat

  • faireous Faireous (@faireous) reported

    Has anyone else somehow lost all their gold, dubloons and ancient coins? As well as having trouble connecting to the game? #seaofthieves #SoT #Seaofthieveserror

  • ooharmi NaviBluxKitty (@ooharmi) reported

    Anyone else having issues buying voyages? Been trying for over an hour.. alongside getting Alabasterbeard out of servers...😬 Going to try again later. #SeaOfThieves

  • EMMOLATION_ EMMOLATION (@EMMOLATION_) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Is something up with the servers? Trying to get in, but keep getting a Lavenderbeard error. Missed the last bit of the event because of this.

  • EricTod81597284 Epic Godd (@EricTod81597284) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Yeah drop the celebration bullshit and fix the goddamn servers. No person should buy a game and wait 5 goddamn hours just for it to let them in, until their friends just move on and decide not to play it with them. You charge me 40 ******* dollars, you give me a working product.

  • RWay146 RisenWay146 (@RWay146) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Still doesn’t matter if you extend the time and people still can’t sign in
