    @LordLethris @SeaOfThieves yea I do a bit of dry brushing on the base I'm not the best at it but it seems a lot better for miniatures, main problem is it will bring out the imperfections from the print, I try to sand them away but if I sand too much I loose detail

  • MinkRoyal RoyalMink (@MinkRoyal) reported

    @whitesim11 @Tinus_81 @SeaOfThieves Sounds like driver issues, maybe reach out to AMD to get it fixed.

  • njmdesigner NJM (@njmdesigner) reported

    @SeaOfThieves @XboxSupport Is there a human that can help me find a solution to my problem? Installed games go screen black, then quick to home page after playing for a few minutes. Yes. I have RESET this thing 3 times. It doesn’t happens when playing cloud. Xbox series X

  • Southwardfaun Southwardfaun (@Southwardfaun) reported

    @Dr1zyDrew @SeaOfThieves Yeah you wanna make sure you log back into your xbox account. If you're having trouble doing it from the menu maybe doing it from the xbox app will work. And yes lavenderbeard is almost exclusively a sot steam issue.

  • Biggboi34026991 Biggboi (@Biggboi34026991) reported

    @AdrianDelicioso @SeaOfThieves I’ve always had this problem maybe it’s just more common now but I’ve had that happen to me since before seasons were a thing

  • Fishhook_Cook Fishhook Cook (@Fishhook_Cook) reported

    @Capt_Ballzonia They should add a haunted barrel with a ghost that pops up and winks sometimes as a not to the glitch lol @SeaOfThieves

  • Nubbyderg Dumb Stupid Dragoness (@Nubbyderg) reported

    @SeaOfThieves I usually don't complain much about the game but do you think we could get a better anticheat? As it stands, there has been an influx of cheaters in the game, and they don't usually get banned, but if I accidentally disconnect my controller the wrong way, I risk getting banned.

  • cptvictory19 captain victory (@cptvictory19) reported

    @microsoft you know after having several issues with all of your gaming software and the troubleshooting I’ve followed, I shouldn’t have had to buy #SeaOfThieves again on @Steam after having it since 2019 just to be able to login.

  • Southwardfaun Southwardfaun (@Southwardfaun) reported

    @Dr1zyDrew @SeaOfThieves If you're getting the Lavenderbeard error, try logging out and back in to your xbox account from main menu.

  • whitesim11 Si (@whitesim11) reported

    @Tinus_81 @SeaOfThieves My 3060 has no issues obv but both my boys have amd graphics cards in thier rigs and they both suffer with the random crashes in only that game. Again google it.

  • crystalskys222 CrystalSkys22 (@crystalskys222) reported

    @Fluffyfatman @SeaOfThieves I dont think they will be a problem for those who play the game enough, which is who they're designed for.

  • Dr1zyDrew DtheRealG (@Dr1zyDrew) reported

    Having an issue where I open Xbox Game Bar overlay and then upon tabbing back into SoT, I can only use my keyboard. My mouse doesn't focus back into SoT. Only solution I found after several attempts was restarting the game. Am I stupid? 🤔 #SeaOfThieves
