  • notshafted Non-Binary or something, very mentally handicapped (@notshafted) reported

    @Lord_Poob @SeaOfThieves It's a literal bug. Bugs can be funny. But it's a problem.

  • Taaaaamas Taaamas (@Taaaaamas) reported

    @hamadi201232 @SeaOfThieves Lavenderbeard is a very common error. I'd suggest you try to relink your Xbox Live account and then try again. You can log out from the title screen using the 'Sign Out' prompt.

  • Vox_Nova_Luce Vox Silencio (@Vox_Nova_Luce) reported

    @notshafted @SeaOfThieves why fix this?

  • shestuff2 shes tuff (@shestuff2) reported

    @SeaOfThieves I've just been cursed by power outage after escaping from a horde of skeletons and taking the Shroudbdeaker back to the mysterious tavern stranger.

  • xepyal Xepyal (@xepyal) reported

    @JDM_Lifestyles @SeaOfThieves And if all you do is steal, that should be your problem.

  • JMD2471 Justin Derosier (@JMD2471) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Please, could you fix the following: players leaving sessions and the boat locking up so no one can join. Friend left my boat and I tried to invite another and it wouldn’t because it said I still had a crew mate. Also, locked crew boats unlocking.

  • notshafted Non-Binary or something, very mentally handicapped (@notshafted) reported

    @e_elided @SeaOfThieves Yea I bully gay people, sure. I love shitting on just any nerds on this site, and can gladly call out a problem like this dev team.

  • Zannas10 Zander Morrison (@Zannas10) reported

    Hey @SeaOfThieves I'm getting a Lavenderbeard error. Any known problems on your side perhaps?

  • frosty_angrier 💙frosty💙 (@frosty_angrier) reported

    @LiteralWizard @Behind__Luc @SeaOfThieves basically premium, about 5 bucks. the torn alternatives would be the kraken sails if that's all you want, a broken look. Or the shrouded ghost hunter ones which are also premium, sadly

  • notshafted Non-Binary or something, very mentally handicapped (@notshafted) reported

    @Vox_Nova_Luce @SeaOfThieves Look up the definition of a bug/glitch.

  • notshafted Non-Binary or something, very mentally handicapped (@notshafted) reported

    @PlainEFX @SeaOfThieves It is a literal bug that is an issue and causes problems. Funny? Yea. Occasionally. But it's a bug

  • _DoubleAE_ DoubleAE (@_DoubleAE_) reported

    I love shooting someone point blank with a blunderbuss only for it to not register at all and for them to blunder me right back killing me. @SeaOfThieves please fix the hit reg. I'm tired of not being able to do anything

  • binksss_tv binks (@binksss_tv) reported

    @Simon_westmoors @SeaOfThieves @RareLtd Hot fixs come out to 'fix the game' not make things 10x worse haha

  • VictorTDT ★HIXON★ (@VictorTDT) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Anyone facing problems with the servers ?

  • T__Moneyzz Tony (@T__Moneyzz) reported

    @MmmCherryade @SeaOfThieves While this is funny I admit, it ain't gonna ever happen. Tbh I rarely have issues with other players if I don't do world events and even then half the time I either find no one else or they're friendly.

  • nymbunmy ♻️☀️ (@nymbunmy) reported

    and once again @SeaOfThieves is lagging it’s *** off. LMAO. good game devs

  • LukeGadsby9 Luke Gadsby (@LukeGadsby9) reported

    @SeaOfThieves @SeaOfThieves are the servers down

  • TheCloudBeeTTV TheCloudBee (@TheCloudBeeTTV) reported

    @Mrs480 @SeaOfThieves I hope they never fix this!

  • neosalad neosalad (@neosalad) reported

    @Hayvock @SeaOfThieves Sadly not. Last 2 days when I "try" to play the game on Xbox it starts off fine but keep getting disconnected every 15 me nutes or so getting hazelnut beard error, and have to reconnect to the game.

  • BL1NKTW1CE Onetime (@BL1NKTW1CE) reported

    @notshafted @SeaOfThieves @SeaOfThieves we know you think this is funny, but imagine losing hours of loot because of it. Not so funny anymore. Also when will you be able to fix the hit registry problem that has been an issue since day 1?
