W0ty (@W0ty__) reported@Lotus_Koril @SeaOfThieves @S0nicbob Right after i posted my innitial tweet, i got dm from countless of people telling me more stuff about this whole problem. But they are afraid to speak out, bcs they are scared to be canceled, or to lose their boatswains, hats, gloves....
-
ShamanMcLamie (@ShamanMcLamie) reported@SeaOfThieves My biggest problem with stuff like this is that it is after the fact. I get if something is limited time to get, but if there is no heads up that there would be any reward. People who would grind these things out wouldn't do it.
-
⚙️ (@d3monWo1f) reported@SeaOfThieves @theburntpeanut tried playing your game again. 2nd opportunity to gain players and same fn issues. Do you even care anymore?
-
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.
-
Captain BlackeyeThe2nd (Yo/Ho) (@BlackeyeThe2nd) reported@BananaStove @SlothyBearr @SeaOfThieves The problem is that making the sword more available WASNT what we wanted. I wanted MORE than FIVE items to commemorate our time. I just didn't want the rewards to stop at 4k doubloons. Am I too greedy asking for, like, doubloon boots? Gimme some Doubloots for 10k or sumn, idk.

Remz_get-_-down (@RemzGetDown_) reported@JackieChann87 @SeaOfThieves Yeah thats the issue, ashen keys should only spawn at emergent Garrisons
-
Jim Binky (@Jimbinky) reported@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.
-
Riffrah (@riffofseas) reported@SeaOfThieves Can you fix the hackers in hourglass or that disregarded while people get banned for actual **** all
-
yThiEveZ (@BrotherJamess) reported@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.

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

CaptainDarkseason (@CDarkseason) reported@SeaOfThieves Disappointing mess of a weekend. Dabloons not tracking or lagging hard. Text not showing on instructions. Rage inducing bilge rat tasks. Having to wait a whole day for a fireworks display to be at a certain outpost. The fishing was chill but pointless as no dabloons
-
George Floyd's Inhaler (@ThrowAcc25) reported@SeaOfThieves No. Fix the bugs and glitches.
-
Nyros (@SirNyros) reportedPlease 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

SNAF (@SNAF_ftw) reportedpeanut can play CS2 with no issues... cant play @SeaOfThieves @SoT_Support with out an issue. Yall MISSED THE MARK per drew.
-
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.
-
Juke (@JukstJuke) reported@RealLifeWookie @SeaOfThieves Same. I quit sot when they removed quickswap and made all combat clunky as a result of the fix, i will not come back to sot but i still follow the game, i played sot since 2018 until season 10 religiously, all my friends quit around that time too.
-
Junior (@RustGod0) reported@SeaOfThieves Instead of making bullshi events yal should fix the login system ever since I deleted the game and wanted come back to play i can’t even get through the main screen bc I need to recover a permanent account that I don’t even remember and the game doesnt remember it ether so Im ***

Jedder Cheese (@JedderCheese05) reported@SeaOfThieves Can your support team actually support me? They said buying a new copy would fix my game.
-
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
-
𐌃𝖴𐌁 (@GoodfellaDub_) reported.@SeaOfThieves are you all gonna respond to how to fix this issue? This single dude playing your game could help it and he can’t play because of this. @RareLtd
-
Mikey 🛝 (@Griinjah) reportedThe 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

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 :(

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:
-
Baytash (@BishoyMilad) reported@SeaOfThieves I understand that you want to go for the grinding mechanic but the problem lies in there's nothing to grind if there's no alternate way of earning a suitable amount of doubloons after completing the deeds of the weekender, there has to be another way to earn doubloons.

Average Vibes (@AverageVibeMan) reported@SeaOfThieves A Sword will not fix your game. Sorry not sorry

-
Beardageddon (@RealLifeWookie) reported@fraudatori @SeaOfThieves You're missing the point. If you have sea of thieves on game pass, do not login to the game and vote an emisary you're not on the ledger. I'm assuming you haven't played this month? Go to the ledger and look for your position, you won't be on there until you login and vote
