    @MOB_xGAMERx @SeaOfThieves The code of conduct that’s on the wall of the tavern says “keep battles on the seas” or something along those lines and instead of taking it to mean “don’t bring problems out of the game” and instead take it literally to mean “you can only battle people on the open water”

    @WazzaC92 @SoT_Support @SeaOfThieves Was it bad this glitch happend in the first place? Yes. But no one was stopping you from doing said voyages anyways. As they stated, those coins would've been added to your wallet.

    @DalannaPlays @SeaOfThieves Regardless of what happened tonight Streamer mode should be a thing anyway for basic protection... It's a common thing on other games. Post wasn't entirely about Peanut though, its been a issue for multiple creators for 8 Years..

    @SeaOfThieves @theburntpeanut tried playing your game again. 2nd opportunity to gain players and same fn issues. Do you even care anymore?

    @SoT_Support @Jumper92PL @SeaOfThieves I'm seeing reports that yall are just literally ignoring tickets about this issue. And apparently the support people are removing the items cause they 'simply can't understand how someone can get all those items' even when shown they were reset and farmed the items. Do better

    Some didn't like #SeaOfThieves by @theburntpeanut Which of the three options would have been better? 1) Cheaters crash server 2) 8 hours of boring empty sea sailing + one battle against AFK solo-loop 3) HG where they'll be sunk so quickly they won't even know what happened

    @SeaOfThieves I understand that you want to go for the grinding mechanic but the problem lies in there's nothing to grind if there's no alternate way of earning a suitable amount of doubloons after completing the deeds of the weekender, there has to be another way to earn doubloons.

    @SeaOfThieves Can you fix your problems so Peanut can play your game please

    @SeaOfThieves Great actually. I have been playing other games and havent plyed since January. I keep checking but continue to see the devs are just as incompetent as always! To those playing, your complaints are being heard but they dont care and it will continue to be a broken mess

  • LordofCh8os
    LordofCh8os (@LordofCh8os) reported

    I’ve run into cheaters maybe a handful of times over the years. @SkeleCurseIRL is absolutely right, #seaofthieves doesn’t have a cheater problem, it has a perception problem. The lack of game knowledge has people calling cheats for what is just really good gameplay

  • GTRXAH

    @SeaOfThieves @youtooz Fix ur game, harpooning me off a cannon shouldn’t glitch me to where I cant go back to the ferry after death and can’t use any weapons or items.

  • MagmaBoots

    Is it just me, or is everyone experiencing terrible frame drops in #SeaOfThieves lately? I have a pretty decent PC setup, but my frames are dying whenever I’m fighting a Burning Blade or completing Ashen Garrisons. The lag when opening barrels and crates seems to be back as well. Looking back at old game clips, it used to run smooth as butter. Will it ever feel that way again? @SoT_Support

    @SeaOfThieves How about you fix your support team. I've been ignored for 4 days straight now.

  • KennyCain13384

    @SeaOfThieves fix the hourglass exploit already people casually getting 100,200+ streaks in a short time and getting gold curses in less than a day. Pointless making a game mode dedicated to grinding if you stay quiet about people exploiting the system to make the grind non existent.

    @SeaOfThieves I also spied my eye on a little Peanut getting server DDOS'd with his friends and roughly 70k viewers..... Going to acknowledge the issue at hand? no? hmm ok... I used to Love and breath this game. It's truly sad and seems so far gone.

    @SeaOfThieves So we gotta wait about 4 hours. And then we get beard errors all day when playing or logging in? Lol. Jk.

    Please I beg you, PLEASE FIX this Cannon De-Synch happening right now. Cannons are completely out of Control especially in Hourglass when both Masts are down. 50/50 that your cannons actually land where you shoot them. @SeaOfThieves @SoT_Support #SeaOfThieves

  • DayKahDos
    DK2️⃣ (@DayKahDos) reported

    @SeaOfThieves One of the major issues with this event is the lack of frequency combined with the inability to earn doubloons almost at all now in between these weekends. The cap of 3 voyage completions before it gives gold is lame as well. Also server performance was TERRIBLE (fireworks?)

    @Seeker53872832 @SeaOfThieves What did you expect after they said there was a doubloon economy issue, after the last few seasons included a bunch of stuff that sells for doubloons? That's a manufactured issue.

  • GotItFromEbay
    GotItFromEbay (@GotItFromEbay) reported

    @LUCKYY10P Big L for @RareLtd and @SeaOfThieves. Game needs an injection of players right now and TBP gets DDOS'd off of it by cheaters. Shame too because I feel like SoT would be right up his alley of crew/friend shenanigans.

    @Game7DS @SeaOfThieves With what’s happening streamer mode isn’t won’t do a thing to fix this problem

  • AboutSelphy
    AboutSelphy (@AboutSelphy) reported

    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
