    So...I've seen people have problems with missing freckles or spots on their character...some hair dyes remove those spots but other hair dyes don't. I don't use my characters natural hair color so it removes his spots but when I dyed it red they were there :) #SeaOfThieves

  • Gorydoll0029 Gory Dollistic (@Gorydoll0029) reported

    @Sassy_Sashi_ @SeaOfThieves I was being truthful it is back up and been up right when you asked…also don’t die in the game it will make your pirate lose all emotes,clothing and make you look like you are a new pirate…every time you die in the game rare is trying to fix it…

    @osamaqamar_ @SeaOfThieves I kill people in SoT...no problem. I kill people in real life...wow such hypocrisy.

  • Southwardfaun Southwardfaun (@Southwardfaun) reported

    @MaikelMcGiver @SeaOfThieves I would still completely remove drivers and reinstall them from the ground up. That's assuming that the old drivers were present when the os was changed. But idk I'm no pro. I've had problems that were fixed by removing all drivers and trying again.

  • PhantomRoy7 PhantomRoy (@PhantomRoy7) reported

    @SeaOfThieves While you’re at it fix legend of the veil. Soul flame captain doesn’t drop any loot anymore.

  • CaptainViserion Captain Viserion | The Fallen Ferryman (@CaptainViserion) reported

    @RaineVondrake @SeaOfThieves Omg I had this same bug! My pirate had freckles when I got her and she no longer has them. Interesting I’m not the only one who’s having this problem.

  • WyvernKh WyvernKraehe (@WyvernKh) reported

    @dannysmith54 @anarcho_goblin @SeaOfThieves I mean I appreciate it for the triangle symbolism that calls back to historical persecution and issues faced, but let's not pretend like it cost any big amount of money to make.

  • BetterBhvr BetterBHVR (@BetterBhvr) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Btw I’m being hyperbolic. I know they made a few tweaks here and there but they should have done a lot more. If they had put in the effort, more people would have played it more often. Even with all its problems, I miss arena. It could be really fun and had so much potential.

  • FutureMedusa478 snickerscupcake (nicki) (@FutureMedusa478) reported

    @SeaOfThieves @RareLtd the game keeps crashing when I live stream it, I have checked everything else and there’s no issue there, I’ve tried deleting/reinstalling the game but to no avail 🥺 I just wanna pirate #twitchcrash

  • Evilslither1 cpt teach (@Evilslither1) reported

    @SwippedT @BetterBhvr @SeaOfThieves Or the problem is that ppl are not Smart enough to disable the comms by Them self...

  • Zyx_XBL Zyx (@Zyx_XBL) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Please fix crash issues 🙏

  • GhostOfBigBetty Pirate Lord B. Betty (@GhostOfBigBetty) reported

    Yo @SeaOfThieves i’m on Xbox One S. Before recent update I didn’t crash. Now my game crashes 4-5 times a session. If we are offline tomorrow I hope this issue gets fixed.

  • WyvernKh WyvernKraehe (@WyvernKh) reported

    @dannysmith54 @anarcho_goblin @SeaOfThieves I mean I appreciate it for the triangle symbolism of persiverance and that hints back to historical persecution and issues faced, but let's not pretend like it cost any big amount of money to make.

  • EdyHassle Edy Hassle (@EdyHassle) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Y’all add everything else yet fail to fix your game crashing or the long *** black screens. Never played a game with servers down as much as sot.

  • sea_fare007 Sea-fare (@sea_fare007) reported

    @SeaOfThieves not once did my SOT game crash in the last year of playing. And today it crashed once every hour of playing. What is going on? #xbox

  • Valor_Omega_SoT Captain Valor Omega, The Researcher (@Valor_Omega_SoT) reported

    @BeardBerserk @SeaOfThieves It is rather difficult to nail the scale of some of the islands, I had a bunch of trial and error while making the base island for Plunder, as well. It's not 100% to scale, either, but I made it as close as I could! :)

  • Spartah98 Laura (@Spartah98) reported

    @SeaOfThieves I hope whatever you’re doing when you take the servers down soon is fixing all the crashes my game is having. Every time I play, the game crashes at least once and it’s doing my head in.

  • SwippedT SwippedTwit (@SwippedT) reported

    @Evilslither1 @BetterBhvr @SeaOfThieves Toxic idiots are the community's problem, and when the problem is bad enough that the dev disables voice comms entirely, it's an indication of a major problem.

  • JasonC_Music JasonChatfieldMusic (@JasonC_Music) reported

    @SeaOfThieves so I start my first Athena quest by myself tonight just to have the game completely crash on me 😭. After waiting for the update to download tonight, let's hope it's not a step backwards. I actually love this game 🙏

  • DarkIris413 ℜ𝔢𝔫𝔢𝔢 💋 (@DarkIris413) reported

    @SeaOfThieves the constant lagging out and the game just randomly kicking me and my crew from the game 2 or more times a session needs to be fixed

  • StormySeaDog Stormyseadog (@StormySeaDog) reported

    @SeaOfThieves @SoT_Support The Adventure appears to be removing all equipped emotes and clothes after returning from Ferry of the DAMN #SeaOfThieves Hope Hot fix incoming soon
