Vivo (@Vivoronte) reported@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.
-
Frank Estes (@FrankEstess) reported@SeaOfThieves Man I want my content even if it's broken just fix it in hot patches I seriously never seen a company that never ever uses hot patches to update mid game for small tweaks
-
DRB (@DavidRichardB00) reported@SeaOfThieves So we gotta wait about 4 hours. And then we get beard errors all day when playing or logging in? Lol. Jk.
-
Devil's Advocate (@DevilsAdvoc4t) reported@RareLtd your intentions are good, but if you can't ******* fix server merges in @SeaOfThieves, maybe don't force more of them, yeah? I'd rather choose to change servers than you try and kill it right as we're about to sell.

Kenny Cain (@KennyCain13384) reported@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.

Slimey Pigeon (@Slimey_Pigeon) reported@SkeleCurseIRL @SeaOfThieves Holy **** I have a problem. I wish I DIDNT look this up.

Strið (@StridWar) reported@SeaOfThieves pls do something to fix instable connexion on the game, I’ve tried to launch a session on calm seas but I’ve 600 ping with ethernet connexion and the issue doesn’t came from my internet box… it’s just frustrating to can’t play…
-
NoName101 (@noob76052507) reported@SolanaD0C @ICTD_MIKE @SeaOfThieves we had bi-weekly fixes, at this time it really was hot-fixing. if its not lazy devs, what i really hope, it a major skill issue :(

Captain Abigail! 🇵🇸🏳️⚧️ (she/they) (@Tvee___) reported@RyanShe89693323 @S4ltyR4bbit @SeaOfThieves 2's a coincidence, 3's a pattern.. Rare, fix your crap
-
BroseidonBoi (@BroseidonBoi) reported@SeaOfThieves Heads up, your Ashen Garrison rowboats are de-spawning, even while docked on the ship. I assume it happens when the Garrison resets and becomes active again, but it’s happened twice to me now and I’m seeing other people having the same issue. #SeaOfThieves

DUBB3D (@__DUBB3D__) reportedThe recent decisions from the Sea of Thieves team has been unacceptable and quite frankly out of line. The more recent issues being Season 19, and the Blackwyche set releasing in the Emporium are the final straws on the camels back for a lot of players, myself included. More specifically, the way both of these situations have been handled is nothing short of disgraceful. I'm not talking about the team scrapping content from Season 19, but rather trying to keep the 3-Act structure, when we were just told by Drew that that formula does not work, yet it's still getting implemented. "Transparency" as a whole is something we have heard from the team almost every video it seems. However, it has become corporate speak rather than details of current problems (and what they're doing to fix it) as well as discussion of the large-scale full roadmap for the future plans of the game. This is highly alarming. We are far beyond the point of needing to be surprised for anything. PLEASE just tell us what you are going to do for the game and what is going on. We need full honesty and openness about what the team is doing to show that our valuable time is not being wasted like it currently is, and for overall improvement of game health. Of course the next community direct could be the start of seeing some future plans, but again, this needed to happen sooner (years ago) and it's honestly too late regardless of what happens now. We see Rare is underwater and profits are decreasing at an alarming rate. We see the team scrambling to push out any amount of half-baked content. The overall quality bar has been set so drastically low it is embarrassing. None of it has proper creative and intuitive lead like it used to and it leaves us with less and less for every update. The game does not feel as full or exciting as it used to, despite there being so much. Another huge problem, especially right now, are the community managers and moderators. So many of these people in the past have bullied, belittled, blocked, and flat out banned players for voicing their opinions. There needs to be a drastic change in this team in regards to how it is structured and how they are allowed to use their authority and operate. I am not wishing for anyone to get fired, but rather repositioned to a different role, because managing a community and handling feedback is obviously not in their skill set. Some people in particular are J0toro and Shirah, who have been the worst when it comes to this. It feels like they have no boss watching or directing what they do and it has been like this for years. They are on a super loose leash and it feels like they are completely separate from the rest of the leadership team. They speak and act on what they feel and what they want and it is super bad. These people SHOULD NOT be the public representation of Rare, specifically Sea of Thieves at all. There is also a MASSIVE disconnect between how Rare views Sea of Thieves, and how the players view Sea of Thieves. Yes, it is Rare's game and Microsoft's IP, but our wants and needs as the players who actually spend time in the game needs to be paramount in decision making in the future. In short, what I am trying to say, is that Rare and specifically the directors of Sea of Thieves need to either get this game back on course before it is too late, or announce that they are working on Sea of Thieves 2. People only speak up because they care. If nobody spoke up in the face of problems, then it would be even worse than it is now. The fact that still so many people voice their opinions is a good thing, so please stop censoring us or just flat out ignoring us. #SeaOfThieves

Wil Armentrout (@iWTROUTX07) reported@SeaOfThieves Can we fix the “no gold” and “no commendation completions” already?? Community weekend and nothing is counting right now for the lady 4 hours
-
Nathanonfire (@Nathanonfire2) reported@Game7DS @SeaOfThieves With what’s happening streamer mode isn’t won’t do a thing to fix this problem
-
Europa OfAsguard (@EuropaofAsgard) reported@Giovann69642526 @SeaOfThieves We kept asking them to release it. They kept delaying. Finally it's released. We asked if 2wks was enough time to fix everything? We were assured it was, no delays. Today they announced delays. And they wonder why players don't feel heard.

𝓜𝔂𝓽𝓱𝓲𝓬𝓪𝓵 𝓙𝓸𝓴𝓮𝓻 (@JokerMythical) reported@SeaOfThieves @gaming_4nj4 A lot of the codes are broken, don’t bother sending tickets to rare about it, they will just tell you to talk to Microsoft which is full of AI agents lol
-
Master (@Lotus_Koril) reported@poetniknowit @SeaOfThieves I know that it wont. Ive been sitting 42 kegs for a long time, even before smugglers. The problem is when you finish all the crates, but still need 50+ kegs. Getting a single keg has a chance of 4% per bottle. But hey Drew said theyre working on the fix now, lets hope its good.

ソビエトゴースト (@Rose34215) reported@SeaOfThieves Yo fix your goddamn anticheat
-
Shucks (@82hoosier) reported@TippToppHansiI @SeaOfThieves @theburntpeanut Yeah i've played 4-5 days now. 2 of those days i was booted offline. One of those days it happened 20 times. Not sure how anyone defends this. And bad connections effect solo players even more because they have a razor thin margin of error to begin with.

Justin Christie (@OKCJChristie) reported@SeaOfThieves Lone cove. In the cave by the broken boat. I got the Chest of Fortune.

IRL_Games (@IRLGames4) reported@Xbox @Mr_Dishyy Can’t wait to hide @SeaOfThieves and the broken achievements…
-
Hexternal (@Hexternal_) reported@IamGreen112 @JoniK90461517 @SeaOfThieves But it’s obviously nothing compared to limited time things which are gone forever. In fairness we don’t know how long the rotations will be. If they’re quick I hardly see an issue with this
-
Andromeda (@ItsAndromedaUwU) reportedhey @SeaOfThieves @S0nicbob fix the bug where your mast just fully stops working even though it never gets dropped like what are we doing im losing so many hourglass matches to this ****
-
TWEENGO (@tweengo1) reported@EliEelEye @SeaOfThieves Region locked for me even though I'm in the uk and got the sails no problem.
-
Europa OfAsguard (@EuropaofAsgard) reported@AkuUkaa @SeaOfThieves Don't worry. James Thomas said in a Nov. 2024 podcast they're putting a team together to look at the merchant supply crate bug. Even when we report bugs, they respond quickly to fix them right? Right?

🎀Hypernep🎀 (@HypershooterA10) reported@rogwala1 @TheTankBall @SeaOfThieves so what is the problem i dont even share nsfw in here and dont care because is legal

🙄🏒⚾️🎸🩺 (@feartheglove) reported@SeaOfThieves @burntpeanut couldn’t ay because he was being DDOS.. sad.. was hoping to see him play this.
-
Travis Touchdown (@Gholdyi) reported@2old4stream @SeaOfThieves worst part is you are getting hated by the community as soon as you mention issues about what rare is doing, you have no right to be a more competent person at spotting evident gameplay design problems than them. now we are stuck with rare listening to the wrong people

SickStyle Gaming (@SickstyleG) reportedI believe in live and let live and for each to do their own thing. With that said if your "thing" is to be crude while farting and belching in your mic while trolling and griefing you're bound to strike the wrong nerve with someone loco enough to cause you issues. #seaofthieves
