    @SeaOfThieves We should set the anchor. Yeah we definitely should. *Crash* Well at least were standing now

  • SeaDogOrca 💰Arena Fanatic,Orca Singh⚔️ (@SeaDogOrca) reported

    @loganmo21872687 @allhound @SeaOfThieves No problems

  • SlooperSolo CrazyJuan (@SlooperSolo) reported

    @CarlPoppaEUW @SeaOfThieves Maybe you need players who don't want to fight for you to attack, maybe you're worried about some casuals doing some basic voyages, maybe you're afraid your cosmetics imaginary value will be deminshed, but I don't suffer any of those issues.

  • PrettyPinkDuck PrettyPinkDuck (@PrettyPinkDuck) reported

    3 1/2 hours of loot on @SeaOfThieves gone because an xbox troll attacked the entire server with a ddos. My first time experiencing anything like this. How is this even possible on console?! 😡

  • NayfePacewell 💀☠ Capt Dead Plank ☠💀 (@NayfePacewell) reported

    @PrettyPinkDuck @SeaOfThieves How do you know it was a DDoS

  • DKubbitz Donni Kubbitz (@DKubbitz) reported

    @SeaOfThieves I just bought this game on steam. I have an xbox live account but am not subscribed (paying a monthly fee) and for whatever reason I keep getting a prompt telling me to sign in but I am engaging with people in a voice chat on the xbox game app. I even tried reloggin

  • _GhostAdmiral Ghost Admiral (@_GhostAdmiral) reported

    @SeaOfThieves “Uhhhh... we have just a slight... problem... nothing to big... you don’t need to worry! 🙃”

  • MmmCherryade Cherryade (@MmmCherryade) reported

    @Bertscreations @SeaOfThieves Glad I can be of service

  • alcyonism neronetta (@alcyonism) reported

    @SeaOfThieves "Did anyone fix the holes?" "what holes"

  • Disable_Chicken Disable Chicken (@Disable_Chicken) reported

    @SlooperSolo @SeaOfThieves Yeah and that was my main statement, there's a server currently in the game that has 0 PvP, it's called the Maiden Voyage. No need to fix something that's working

  • stordyr Stordyr Gaming (@stordyr) reported

    @Lukathy95 @SeaOfThieves Well, I am not a psychiatrist who can help you with your denial issues, I am very sorry. Maybe when you start acknowledging that cannons and weapons and all that stuff are meant to be used, we can continue this conversation.

  • WEAZL43 WEAZL (@WEAZL43) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Arrr captain we have a problem

  • Jakub04363786 Froncek (@Jakub04363786) reported

    @SeaOfThieves @help Hi, I have a question, recently while loading SoT, I disabled it using task manager and now I don't know how to enable it. Specifically the issue is that it goes black screen and nothing can be done. I uninstalled the game twice and it didn't help.

  • TriadEtr ETR Triad (@TriadEtr) reported

    @Lukathy95 @SeaOfThieves Bruh it's 50/50. I've had days I've gone on and had no issues with other players, some days the opposite. Maybe get into an alliance server ?

  • Disable_Chicken Disable Chicken (@Disable_Chicken) reported

    @SlooperSolo @SeaOfThieves But the game has never been this idea, the game has always been a PvEvP and that's what draws a lot of people to play and enjoy the game. If you physically can't enjoy this game in the current state than maybe it's you and not RARE that have a problem with the game

  • Nicesmileza SKRNICE - The Crabby Boy (@Nicesmileza) reported

    @dogegam64379684 @SeaOfThieves i solved the problem by bought SOT steam version

  • VenomTurtle JT Miller (@VenomTurtle) reported

    I always think to myself "you know the Devil's Roar isn't really that bad. But like its just unplayable, and it sucks to just have a chunk of @SeaOfThieves be so broken

  • XxLuna_FoxX Luna🌙🦊 (@XxLuna_FoxX) reported

    @SlooperSolo @SeaOfThieves Because if every possible kink isn’t worked out now, when it’s actually running in game players will find all the problems and some you didn’t even expect to have. You have to sort out the details now so that you’ll have minimal issues to improve upon.

  • Michael22708058 Michael (@Michael22708058) reported

    @SeaOfThieves is anyone else having a problem with hackers in this game?

  • Lukathy95 Luke Morris (@Lukathy95) reported

    @KraddyOP @Rincewind_am @SeaOfThieves It is a pirate game still, I don't see the issue with putting PvE servers in for people to get away from toxic PvPers & those ghastly Double Gunners

  • XxLuna_FoxX Luna🌙🦊 (@XxLuna_FoxX) reported

    @SlooperSolo @SeaOfThieves It seems like there’s a lot of issues that could occur in this game mode. And I know you say it’s not your job to figure it out, but you’re pitching something to Rare without fully fleshing out the details or how the game could even function in a game mode like this.

  • SlooperSolo CrazyJuan (@SlooperSolo) reported

    @Disable_Chicken @SeaOfThieves Meanwhile I've got other people yelling at me that only a tiny part of players wants this, so which is it some world ending huge change or something so few want that it couldnt be a problem?

  • SlooperSolo CrazyJuan (@SlooperSolo) reported

    @lastpsych @SeaOfThieves 2 problems with this. 1. Ignores that not everyone would want to just do basic voyages, fish, tall tales. Plenty of things reserved for adventure. 2. If pvp players all sank each other and nobody had any loot it could only be their own fault.

  • Disable_Chicken Disable Chicken (@Disable_Chicken) reported

    @SlooperSolo @SeaOfThieves I was just pointing out problems that could come with this to help better your reasoning for PvE servers in the future, anyway fun chat but I have to attend to a charity event now. Good luck on your quest for PvE servers

  • canadiantoejam Thomas B (@canadiantoejam) reported

    @killzone1401 @SeaOfThieves I think that's network issues. I never really had Anything like that

  • mio914 mio (thank you isayama) (@mio914) reported

    @Lukathy95 @SeaOfThieves i don't care that you hate pvp. pvp makes every session a thrill. i play solo, nobody is at more of a pvp disadvantage than i am. but i learned how to stay attentive, how to run, when and where to cut my losses, how to play in the roar, and all my problems with pvpers vanished.

  • LazyBuzzardTV LazyBuzzard (@LazyBuzzardTV) reported

    Does anyone know what CyberPunk is like now since the patches? I was so excited for that game but with the issues I heard that came with it I wanted to wait a while, playing on PC by the way. Also I can’t wait for Season 2 Sea of Thieves! #twitchtv #SeaOfThieves #BeMorePirate

  • GunnarRhoads enclave6063 (@GunnarRhoads) reported

    @SeaOfThieves I have not been able to access the game on an account I have around 2k hours on because I get stuck in the first loading screen at the message enlisting pirate is there anything I can do to get into the game by the end of the season been having this problem for a week

  • Lukathy95 Luke Morris (@Lukathy95) reported

    @KraddyOP @Rincewind_am @SeaOfThieves Its not though, its a serious issue in this game & a one that needs to be addressed by adding PvE servers

  • CapnMoses 🍻Capt Moses🍻(MoSus😉) (@CapnMoses) reported

    Well seems my @SeaOfThieves days are over as I can't get past the 'enlisting pirate' issue I've been dealing with for the past month and a half, my trick of creating a beard error no longer works and so I can no longer access the game with my main account. @SoT_Support @RareLtd
