    @SlothyBearr @SeaOfThieves The black and white is signal enough. I can’t believe that made it to a more prominent side of hourglass. I imagine that’s wildly triggering to a lot of people with any form of inner ear issue or sensitivity. Like who wants one long high pitch tone in your ear for 5 mins. Even if you don’t have sensory issues absolutely no one likes that haha

    @SeaOfThieves YOUR GAME IS BROKEN! I was going the gold horders vault and while I was bringing the treasure out my boat randomly sank, so I went back to my ship and came back to fletcher Island, and the vault was locked. FIX YOUR GAME This isn’t the first time it happened this the update

    @Common_Potatos @SeaOfThieves That's why they started it early this time. It's gonna take longer cuz there's less interest. Should honestly just lower the requirements, but I guess this is one way to fix it.

    @yooztis @SeaOfThieves Will need to own a xbox or a active game pass subscription to login into the sea of thieves game on xbox first then it will work but I believe it works on pc on game pass.

    @SeaOfThieves Can you fix your freakishly toxic player base?? I just got spawn killed a dozen times and got hit with "this is the point of the game" playing this game is exhausting. I can't even enjoy the thing you've added because im tok busy getting run up on by sweats

  • RemzGetDown_
    Remz_get-_-down (@RemzGetDown_) reported

    @JackieChann87 @SeaOfThieves Yeah thats the issue, ashen keys should only spawn at emergent Garrisons

  • neillunn85
    genuscustos (@neillunn85) reported

    @SeaOfThieves I actually think the sword pricing is fair for people who play every day and have completed every season. The rest actually seems cheap. The only issue is people with 50k will have the ferrymen set so won't be using the sword anyway

    @SeaOfThieves We’re at a garrison and had one wave spawn but the next wave hasn’t spawned so we can’t move on 💀 Damn, looking at the other reported issues with this, this is a bad event release.

  • Griinjah
    Mikey 🛝 (@Griinjah) reported

    The stream didn’t even last an hour… How did we not learn from Jynxzi, @RareLtd? Events like this make me sad to even admit how many hours I’ve put into SoT. Are you going to fix this issue four years later like HG, or actually do something NOW? Fix the damn game. #SeaOfThieves

    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

    @SeaOfThieves @NexdealSOT Your games broken

    @Giovann69642526 @SmokeBeardTV @SeaOfThieves to afford just the curse, nevermind a single other thing in BOTH of the black markets, and you have to remember that this is only the first black market drop. They intend to add more to it consistently, which will only make this issue worse.

    @SeaOfThieves Is a fix to correct tomorrow's patch already planned ?

  • DevilsAdvoc4t
    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.

    @SeaOfThieves You need to ******* fix PVP me and my friend are doing PVP and another ******* sloop that's not doing PVP come over and sinks us. How is this ******* fair when someone else comes over and ruins PVP FIX ******* PVP! @SeaOfThieves

    Please I beg you, PLEASE FIX this Cannon De-Synch happening right now. Cannons are completely out of Control especially in Hourglass when both Masts are down. 50/50 that your cannons actually land where you shoot them. @SeaOfThieves @SoT_Support #SeaOfThieves

  • Treefittytwo
    24 player servers? (@Treefittytwo) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Fix the bugs and exploits. Make harpoon gun not useable to board ships. Put HG on their own servers not on adventure mode. Delete the devils roar.

    @shenanigoon @SeaOfThieves People crashing out because of cosmetics, are just as cringe, as people that want them to be angry for no reason. Why do you want to cause an outrage, from people that did nothing wrong? You have issues man. Get a grip!

  • ThrowAcc25
    George Floyd's Inhaler (@ThrowAcc25) reported

    @SeaOfThieves can you fix the bug on Skeleton Forts whete the lord glitches into the floor and when they're defeated to vault door key doesn't spawn. Your game has to many bugs and glitches, it makes it so unenjoyable.

  • SmokeBeardTV
    Smoke (@SmokeBeardTV) reported

    @SeaOfThieves is now switching up again, the doubloon cutlass is free as long as youve earned 50k doubloons in your lifetime (sorry new and casual players, sot just flipped you the bird) its almost like if they stop resetting doubloons we wouldn’t have any of these problems

  • VenomousSloth7
    Venom (@VenomousSloth7) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Is Custom Seas gonna make regular server feel even more dead? Are hackers gonna be able to access it and crash it so that larger streamers cant even play it? Is it gonna be a buggy mess like the game is? 🤔

  • mhitchcockDCI
    Mark (@mhitchcockDCI) reported

    @SeaOfThieves I don’t really mind any of these changes because they are probably just testing things out which is fine. I have a bigger problem with him saying the game performance has gotten better. Nah bro… I can’t pull out my food or wood sometimes, Tposing, barrel glitch, etc.

    @LazyLakePaul @SeaOfThieves Imma warn you, a few streamers who’ve played SoT recently kept getting DDOS
