  • better_be_ready Michael Brady (@better_be_ready) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Just updated XBONE X and the game crashes not even 3 minutes into it. Switched to a different console and same issue.

  • bisher_king Pain (@bisher_king) reported

    @CWB261992 @LukeWarmPlays @SeaOfThieves Understandable that is true it can be done but my main issue here is that it’s despawn time is long and there are better world events with 10x less the hassle so either buff up the loot or remove it as a whole

  • DuMy_2008 DuMy2008 (@DuMy_2008) reported from Milton Keynes, England

    @WingoStephen @SeaOfThieves Raise a ticket on forum, they seem to be having issues atm

  • MRDBinnington Matt RD Binnington (@MRDBinnington) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Getting constant crashes on Series X, can't play for any more than 30s to a minute before a hard crash back to the Xbox Dashboard. The update has broken the game for me 💔
