  • XvenDeR Ed Ju (@XvenDeR) reported

    @SeaOfThieves servers down?

  • CommsBreak SpinalCrush ♿ (@CommsBreak) reported

    @AT0MAC @SeaOfThieves I know a load of people will hate me for this, and maybe @Rare could solve the problem by making Arena a genuine eSports ready option, but I wish the "pirate code" was somehow enforceable, make it so non party members can't interact with your ship maybe ?

  • BubblesTheLab Custard The Creamy Wizard (@BubblesTheLab) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Fix your ocean-rager spawn positions & rate!!! I'm trying to complete a tall tale on my own which is already difficult enough without those big 1 shot crab things constantly spawning with no ammo around!! Why are they even spawning in the boss battle room?!

  • BenjaMaster_ BenjaMaster (@BenjaMaster_) reported

    @Capren3 @SoT_Support @SeaOfThieves Exactly, I would love to have ping and fps counters! Especially because I have been lagging recently, I want to know how much I’m lagging lol.

  • smugglersdray Kaptain Dead-Eyes Dray (@smugglersdray) reported

    @Mr_PotterSauce @SeaOfThieves Yeah, the amount of sub-screens has become an increasing problem over the last year or so

  • DeadeyeDavid20 David (@DeadeyeDavid20) reported

    I hope this is just gonna fix itself when they are awarded. I don’t want all the time and effort I put in to go to waste. Hopefully we all can get this sorted if it’s an issue #SeaOfThieves

  • raishiin Raishiin (@raishiin) reported

    And todays attempt at another run in @SeaofThieves had three volcanoes going up where they auto-aimed the ship and killed all of us multiple times in the same two second periods. I'm over it. Games mechs are broken.

  • aldmerislayer Andy "N7" K (@aldmerislayer) reported

    @riirichan No problem Rii adding you now im AldmerislayerX watch out if we play #SeaOfThieves though im a keg skelly magnet

  • Ph4nt0m_xx xx_phantom_2712 (@Ph4nt0m_xx) reported

    Just realize that I didn’t receive all of my emissary rewards for last rotation. Is this a known problem @SeaOfThieves @SeaofThievesUK1

  • Z3rokun 🐉Z3ro-kun (@Z3rokun) reported

    @SeaOfThieves The fix to the bug… can’t play because the islands dont load completely.😖

  • AidanWelch20 Aidan Welch (@AidanWelch20) reported

    @SeaOfThieves What if there was a randomly generated “grog counter” set for each pirate which dictated how many tankards of grog they could have before passing out? The counter changes upon login/respawning so it’s always random. This could make for fun drinking games!

  • WolfConGaming WolfConG (@WolfConGaming) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Any update on the sunken pearl fix. Only had one commendation left at the very end with chest of sorrows in my hand, randomly screen goes black and spawns me past the bubble so i can't go back to get the chest!!? Waste of 2 hours and unsure whether to risk it again

  • NoahKel06918695 Noah Kelly (@NoahKel06918695) reported

    @budamoaran30 @SeaOfThieves How could that be done? It’s not like apex where it can be measured better. I’m a day one player and am able to handle pvp with no problems but there are players who’ve also played as long as me but still completely suck at the game. A feature like this would be disadvantages.

  • Zephyr_13 Baptiste Zéphýr (@Zephyr_13) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Towards a hitreg fix for sure.

  • Judge_Dreddl Judge Dredd (@Judge_Dreddl) reported

    @SoT_Support @SeaOfThieves Fix the ******* FOV. I'm on PC, not @Xbox I don't need 90 FOV. Also fix the ******* sword. People are swiping through my god damn attacks like I'm not even there. You can take money from us can't fix your god damn game?

  • TheOneLostSock Imma Eat All Your Avocados (@TheOneLostSock) reported

    @SeaOfThieves are you aware of an annoying glitch about the error code(HazelNutBeard)? It will constantly keep kicking you from the game until you just close the game an then it wont kick you for a longer period of time. Please fix this problem

  • Xanthicirs Video Games and Politics (@Xanthicirs) reported

    Alright. I'm not quitting. Not yet. I was just so angry and sad last night at 2:30 in the morning. I've had more good experiences than bad in this game. They really do need to fix the spawn rate though. #SeaOfThieves

  • KillerKieranQ Kieran (@KillerKieranQ) reported

    @SeaOfThieves @RareLtd, I beg of you to balance the Devils Roar more because being triple volcanoed and still getting hit an ENTIRE ISLAND AWAY while trying to do ANYTHING is unbelievably unfair. Fix the new mob spawnrate and please fix the Roar.

  • JhMitchXD1 JhMitchXD (@JhMitchXD1) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Someone to fix hit reg and a trashcan to throw the specters in, because they DON'T belong in adventure.

  • XplodingTurtle7 Nanaue, AKA King Shark, Shark Demi-God (@XplodingTurtle7) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Either my true love or the exact amount of money I need to get rid of all my problems

  • Judge_Dreddl Judge Dredd (@Judge_Dreddl) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Fix the ******* FOV. I'm on PC, not @Xbox I don't need 90 FOV. Also fix the ******* sword. People are swiping through my god damn attacks like I'm not even there. You can take money from us and collab with @Disney but you don't have time to fix your god damn game?

  • raishiin Raishiin (@raishiin) reported

    Hey @SeaOfThieves, is your game supposed to spawn two skeleton sloops and a skeleton galleon on a sloop solo player inside two minutes? Just did that to me and I stood absolutely no chance. I lost over an hour of play because of an autospawn that NUKED me. What is your problem?

  • Sawtooth44 “Bartender” Sawtooth ForgeFire (@Sawtooth44) reported

    @SeaOfThieves its hard to play the game when Lavenderbeard is SO DAM WIDE he blocks the ocean off better then the red mist dose get someone to fix this error
