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.

SickStyle Gaming (@SickstyleG) reported@SeasOfThieves #seaofthieves fix the harpoon in for hell sake. Season 20 fixed harpoon. That's all we want.
-
ryan leach (@ryantheleach) reported@Game7DS @SeaOfThieves The video compression turns to absolute ****, and makes it look a LOT like AI generated video. But if this happened, it's more then likely a new loot teleport glitch, and you likely had a cheater in recently played under the report menu.
-
MemeVS (@MMVSSOT) reported@Lukitch59 @SeaOfThieves The Trident had time in Insiders to be balanced, yet it still went live unchanged. That suggests it wasn’t missed it just wasn’t prioritized. Insiders exists to catch these issues before launch. So unless the developers were blindsided, I feel that it’s likely to stay as it is.

AlexAngelliux (@AlexAngelliux) reported@SeaOfThieves this is, without a doubt, one of the worst update videos ever. by any major live service title. how anyone, at any level, thought any of these decisions were good, is beyond me.

🙄🏒⚾️🎸🩺 (@feartheglove) reported@SeaOfThieves @burntpeanut couldn’t ay because he was being DDOS.. sad.. was hoping to see him play this.

𝐁𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐝𝐁𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐞𝐫𝐤 🏴☠️ (@BeardBerserk) reported@MrJannusSoT @Mephisto_hub @SeaOfThieves I did this on purpose it's not edited. I wanted the guards to look like they are glitch and can move faster than time itself. Everything was done in game.

Tonald Drump (@TonaldD38704746) reported@SeaOfThieves The game is broken. Come watch the sunset with me. Rare, make a new game.

ralhrby667 (@ralhrby667) reported@SeaOfThieves ,we are asking you about the Middle East servers because we suffer from high ping and every time we play the game the ping is 150+ and above. (So we hope the problem will be solved). Message from Arabic community players Discord link:

Jerikko (@TJerikko) reported@HitboTC @SeaOfThieves I used to play City of Heroes. They introduced player created content. It was fun for about 3 months. And it will be fun to see what, you and other streamers come up with in these servers. The issues will start when the rest of us want into the private server(s) to play in your world. Servers limit ships to 6, is this the same for Private (rhetorical)? I like the idea, but fear that they (the devs) are currently throwing things at the wall to see what sticks.

Oriens Stolen Tomephone (@Orien358) reported@SeaOfThieves It's crazy how quick people forget this is a pirate game when someone starts shooting at them But it's only a problem when they are sinking and not you

Potato (@Common_Potatos) reported@SeaOfThieves Double xp really not working?, hopefully I'll find out soon if I win here.

Europa OfAsguard (@EuropaofAsgard) reported@LHaynes17556 @2old4stream @SeaOfThieves James Thomas Nov 2024 said in a podcast he was putting together a team to fix it.
-
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
-
Dodgers Goated (@PaidCheckmark) reported@SergioJasonPina @SeaOfThieves By far the most casual pvp experience you will find online. With two working brain cells you can be better than 95% of the SOT population. Other players aren’t the problem
-
PIZZA (@PIZZA8D) reported@erick1656732 @SeaOfThieves @theburntpeanut why did it age well? he had the same problem again, if im not mistaken
-
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
-
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.
-
JayBlu (@JayBlu45) reported@PCMonkfish @SeaOfThieves It reallt isnt. Especially since you can open up one of the vaults to get another ashen key 3 on the garrisons aint an issue. But apparently the "Devs" think otherwise
-
Conker Reloaded (@AkuUkaa) reported@SeaOfThieves I think its alright if insiders can find out bugs and report them, but if the developers fix the bugs? idk, the game is stable for now compared to other online games, it took them years to fix the underwater bug :/

EthCorsair (@Eth_Corsair) reportedThe sea has a way of turning simple plans into long nights. It started plain enough. Just the two of us on a sloop, sails trimmed and pockets empty, heading out with the simple thought of running a few garrisons and seeing what fortune the night might offer. The water was calm, the sort of calm that usually means trouble is waiting somewhere ahead. The first garrison came into view through the haze of the horizon, but we weren’t the first to arrive. A galleon sat there already four pirates busy with the fort. I shot over from the sloop, landing quiet at the top to scout things out. Word was these forts sometimes hid a smuggler’s black powder keg. A nasty piece of work if used right. I searched around the island but couldn’t find it… until I looked up. There it was. Those poor fools had hauled the keg all the way up into their crow’s nest like a trophy. Probably thought it was safe there. I started taking shots from the island, trying to knock it loose, but the angle was wrong. Cannon ***** smacked wood and rope, but the keg wouldn’t go. My crewmate decided to do things the hard way. He fired himself out of the cannon toward their ship. Halfway through the air still sailing through the sky like a ragged comet he shot the harpoon. Somehow he caught the keg straight from the crow’s nest and dragged it down with him as he slammed onto their deck. A second later the whole galleon erupted. The blast threw splinters and pirates alike across the deck. By the time the smoke cleared he’d cut down all four of them in the chaos. Their ship sank fast, slipping beneath the water like it had never belonged there. We finished the fort without much trouble after that. Rather than move on, we sailed a short distance off to let the garrison reset so we could run it again. While we waited, sails appeared on the horizon. Same galleon. They came back hungry. We tried the keg trick again, but this time fate wasn’t interested. The powder slipped into the water and vanished before it could do any good. After that it turned into a long, stubborn fight. For nearly an hour we traded blows. Sometimes we had them dead in the water masts down, deck full of holes. Then somehow they’d recover, patch up, and swing the fight back the other way. Cannon fire cracked across the waves. Boards, repairs, missed shots, lucky shots. Over and over. Neither side would leave. Eventually I went for a board while they were busy trading cannon fire with my crewmate. I climbed their ladder unnoticed and dropped onto the deck. Steel did the rest. Four pirates fell in quick succession to the sword. By the time they realized what had happened, my crewmate had them locked in a death circle with the cannons tearing their ship apart. After that I only saw one of them return from the Ferry of the Damned. The rest never came back. I reckon they’d had enough of the night. The galleon sank for the second time. We sailed back to the garrison hoping to finish what we started… only to find the whole place glitched to the depths. No completion. No treasure. Our first stack lost to whatever strange curse the sea had placed on the fort. So we did what pirates do when fortune turns strange. We sailed for Morrow’s Peak Outpost and sold the Reaper flags we’d taken from the galleon. A small victory, but better than empty hands. While we were there, we spotted a brigantine messing around at the northern garrison. Curiosity got the better of us. We sailed over to see what they were about. The moment they realized we were coming, panic set in. They cut and ran, diving beneath the waves to escape after a short skirmish. But in their hurry they left something behind. A pile of treasure bigger than anything we’d earned all night, a MEGA stash! We hauled it aboard piece by piece under the dim lantern light, the sea quiet again at last. Not a bad way to end a long fight. #BeMorePirate #SeaOfThieves
