-
Notcaringmuch (@notcaringmuch) reported@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)
-
CaptainDarkseason (@CDarkseason) reported@SeaOfThieves Disappointing mess of a weekend. Dabloons not tracking or lagging hard. Text not showing on instructions. Rage inducing bilge rat tasks. Having to wait a whole day for a fireworks display to be at a certain outpost. The fishing was chill but pointless as no dabloons
-
Andrew Sharp (@sharpywesley) reported@SeaOfThieves What an absolute shambles this once great and noble game has become. And to the people in the comments saying “never mind, take your time” - demand more than this continuously piss poor service.
-
MasterMind (@Master_Mind_97) reported@SeaOfThieves @xStefina fix the game please , lag spikes are insane after the update

꩜ Dreamcast Forever (@Nemesis2K) reportedLast ship standing just killed of my drive to "getting everything" in sea of thieves, that includes all the emporium items. I will now only play to unlock achievements as they are added. I am done. For that, I am thankful. @SeaOfThieves, forcing me to sit through 40+ minute queue times to get into a game with cheaters, I am just not doing it. Since this will be the first set of cosmetics since launch that have been obtainable to everyone in the player base I wont get, I see no reason to keep playing. The streak/curse has been broken, It was a good run. Now, back to Forza Horizon 6.

WutchUkno (@wutchukno) reported@SeaOfThieves Solo queues are very much broken. Been underwater for an hour +

-
Squidkiller8781 (@squidkiller8781) reported@AboutSelphy @SeaOfThieves because loss farming is a strat. As long as there are points awarded for losing, this is going to be an issue. To be clear, i think it IS an issue, loss farming. But your openly flexing on using an exploit to deprive people of something the devs think they deserve. Just stop.
-
Cope Leo XIV (@CRobinh00d) reported@OzurianArt @SeaOfThieves Removal from the website is good request... as far as the hat goes, a simple way to solve the that problem is to delete the game. If you really don't want to be associated with the game, then don't play it.

KingHotdogPig (@KingHotdogPig) reportedI can’t even put into words how disheartening it is to see #SeaOfThieves in the state it’s currently in. We have Community Managers behaving unprofessionally, Discord mods acting like they rule the world, and both think they're above the rest of us. United in censoring discussion around individuals who have absolutely ZERO place in this community and pose an actual threat to everyone in it. All while players are constantly being gaslit by those same CMs and mods into believing the community isn’t in complete disarray when it very clearly is. What makes this even worse is that these are the very people whose job is supposed to be upholding the community’s values, the Pirate Code, and Microsoft’s Terms of Service. But it feels like nothing is being enforced at all. Situations like this are 100% avoidable too. If the CM team had genuinely listened to the community and addressed these concerns and allegations early on and did something about it, things never would have reached this point. To be clear, this issue has absolutely nothing to do with the production or creative development side of the game. Please don't tag developers, artists, designers, or other team members into discussions they have no involvement in. Our criticism and calls to action are specifically directed at the community management side of Sea of Thieves. That team needs serious retraining, and a reevaluation of whether certain individuals even possess the requirements needed to continue representing the Sea of Thieves community in their current roles. I'm so tired of this, I just want to play the game man... @SeaOfThieves @RareLtd

Aaron THFC/MTFC (@SpursTHB) reported@SeaOfThieves can you stop the glitching under the map glitch ive had 3 of them today
-
Rodney Allstein (@A4285455594739) reported@SeaOfThieves Drew, you got a ton of things to fix
-
- ̗̀Z ̖́- (@Zairin__) reported@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.
-
Sonny (@Sonny_exee) reportedThe @SeaOfThieves doubloon fix is a mess. Players not reset were stuck at the 4k cap, unable to farm. Now you’re removing their items? At the next event, they’ll have to grind double: for the old items AND the new ones. Stop punishing us for your bugs! #SeaOfThieves
-
The Dice Tell a Story (@DiceTellaStory) reported@AboutSelphy @SeaOfThieves Scum willing to use exploits and other avenues to disconnect players from the game need to be banned, regardless if the context is true or not.
-
Googs (@myweeweetinybro) reported@AlmtyChcknPoo @SeaOfThieves To be fair some of us kinda blow ***. I care more about numerous sot community moderators blocking me for talking about quality control issues within the game instead of glazing ******** out of it like a fat kid preparing a toaster strudel for himself.
-
Artist of Thieves (@ArtistofThieves) reported@surivSHANKS @ITZH4ZARD @SeaOfThieves The problem is not the orange association box, its the purple confirmed cheater box. No idea how they got that information though.
-
Hasan (@0xHmax) reported@SeaOfThieves @MaxxineJean @IndieGameJoe Trst sales go up just need little modifications and files already there no? And if server costs is problem just make it feature for special edition of sot will cover server costs or even remove indian servers because what happens there is crazy ifyky
-
Stay wild. (@WildsWrath) reported@SeaOfThieves fix the mmr its un playable. i have no fun in hourglass or adventure. love the game. but like come on. i have 300 hours in the game and I'm going against people with 4000 hour no joke. with even a gold curse. WTF.
-
DK2️⃣ (@DayKahDos) reported@KingHotdogPig @SeaOfThieves The problem with the voyage cap isn’t even the 3 per pirate - it’s the fact you can only complete 3 before it gives gold instead of doubloons. Apologies if this is what you meant - but I figured that we were gonna be able to do at least 12 (3x4 on gally) but couldn’t obviously
-
girlfromthecave (@girlfromthecave) reported@mempavrai @SeaOfThieves im a she and i never got ddos'ed.
-
Beardageddon (@RealLifeWookie) reported@fraudatori @SeaOfThieves By increasing the number of people who have to login to be on the ledger.

🎀Hypernep🎀 (@HypershooterA10) reported@rogwala1 @TheTankBall @SeaOfThieves so what is the problem i dont even share nsfw in here and dont care because is legal
-
almtychcknpoo (@AlmtyChcknPoo) reportedWe have this problem with #SeaOfThieves as well. And it doesn't matter if you write to Microsoft HR or the Board or anyone else. Your email gets dumped in the trash. Your voice doesn't matter. CMs for video games can do whatever they want apparently and silence their community. If only you knew how bad it is over here. We feel your pain, though. As a consumer, we aren't allowed to have an opinion or voice them.

Xyllius (@Xyllius) reported@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.
-
cold (@coldsot_) reported@hasmoq @SeaOfThieves The games not broken at all!
-
whxno (@GTRXAH) reported@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.
-
Xyllius (@Xyllius) reported@Musks_a_cunt @KingHotdogPig @SeaOfThieves I would agree if the issue would be WITHIN the game, but this is OUTSIDE of the game mostly, on social channels. Again, cut-off people involved and close the discord server until things are solved. People that are responsible are mostly dangerous on these platforms.
-
Jon (@JoNiScLoSeR) reported@SeaOfThieves Any update on why the Xbox servers have severe lag every-time anyone plays ? Or gonna keep pretending it isn’t a thing 👏🏻
-
Seth (@smald81) reported@SeaOfThieves @BigKlevin Would have been great to see peanut 🥜 play but too bad you guys couldn’t prevent a DDos attack would have been huge for the community just guessing angry people with flags in their bios!
