    Looking at these reviews for @SeaOfThieves on Xbox and A LOT of them want the same thing. A PVE mode where you can play with friends. I don’t understand why this is a bad thing. Remove safer seas. Make that an “Invite only” server and allow up to 6 boats. Problem solved.

    @SoT_Support @SeaOfThieves I have written a detailed ticket that I can't send sadly. Actually would prefer to not write my issues on X and have them solved here as many community players can't get enough spotlight on themselfs most of the time here and be treated properly.

    Hold Rare accountable. They won't do it themselves. Do not let this turn into a joke or a developer issue. A child was hurt because of Rare's continued lax approach to player safety. This kid needs us to step up, and those who don't are failing them. #Rare #seaofthieves

    Some @SeaOfThieves viewers/streamers really need a reality check on what cheating actually looks like. Watched a streamer get sniped 3x in an hour today. The fights were suspicious (insane air shots, constant mid-air hits, etc.), but the chat was screaming "cheater" for things that were easily debunked. Ladder speeds were normal on VOD, and "insta-kills" were just players not being full HP. It’s easy to lose cool live, but we have to analyze before we accuse. Grateful the streamer kept a level head. The REAL issue? Public sites still exist that track specific players and server ship counts. How is this still live after a months? Cloudflare should be handing over data for a lawsuit at this point. Hoping this reaches the right eyes. @ChappersChapman @S0nicbob

    @SeaOfThieves @RareLtd Ah yes, only listen to the big streamers. That’ll fix the game 💀

    @SeaOfThieves Is Custom Seas gonna make regular server feel even more dead? Are hackers gonna be able to access it and crash it so that larger streamers cant even play it? Is it gonna be a buggy mess like the game is? 🤔

    @RealLifeWookie @SeaOfThieves Im sorry but for a love service game thats some real ****** numbers to pull during an event but you keep on sailing your sinking ship.

    @Giovann69642526 @SmokeBeardTV @SeaOfThieves to afford just the curse, nevermind a single other thing in BOTH of the black markets, and you have to remember that this is only the first black market drop. They intend to add more to it consistently, which will only make this issue worse.

    @romanticidexx @SeaOfThieves I have gigabit internet, so my internet isn't bad. And I'm not referring to rubberbanding. I'm referring to issues that literally affect ALL 4 PEOPLE ON A GALLEON, that a server hop typically fixes. Unfortunately, buggy servers is an almost 'every session' issue

    @squidkiller8781 @Dambitt_ @SeaOfThieves well look, cheaters aren't really a big problem now. There were less of them than the actual number of bugs. They made them "grind" to be able to play Hourglass, so most risks their main profile in the process or completely given up on playing with those. (Yes on PC)

    I believe in live and let live and for each to do their own thing. With that said if your "thing" is to be crude while farting and belching in your mic while trolling and griefing you're bound to strike the wrong nerve with someone loco enough to cause you issues. #seaofthieves

    @SeaOfThieves In June? Wow, it is very hard to earn enough. I don't have a problem in theory (capping at 3 is sensible to avoid the same problem the reset had to fix), but I don't agree with the items being temporary stock as a result. Doing everything and a few emergent chests, I have 1500.

    The stream didn’t even last an hour… How did we not learn from Jynxzi, @RareLtd? Events like this make me sad to even admit how many hours I’ve put into SoT. Are you going to fix this issue four years later like HG, or actually do something NOW? Fix the damn game. #SeaOfThieves

    @JayBlu45 @VoicemasterTV @SeaOfThieves Yeah because a Gally chasing a sloop around the sea for 45 minutes is soooooo fun. 4-6 vs 1 is not a skill issue, and get better or get lost is so childish it’s almost maddening!

    @Lotus_Koril @SeaOfThieves @S0nicbob Right after i posted my innitial tweet, i got dm from countless of people telling me more stuff about this whole problem. But they are afraid to speak out, bcs they are scared to be canceled, or to lose their boatswains, hats, gloves....

    @Nathanonfire2 @SeaOfThieves It wouldn't fix the problem indefinitely but it would help a lot... with how often the game crashes you shouldn't have to worry about your name getting leaked on the main menu... Trying to do something is better then nothing.

    @ManVsMiniatures @SeaOfThieves Its written by their legal team not rare. They know how to phrase stuff without getting into more trouble. While I do agree, law wise their respond is sadly the only correct way.
