    @SeaOfThieves In June? Wow, it is very hard to earn enough. I don't have a problem in theory (capping at 3 is sensible to avoid the same problem the reset had to fix), but I don't agree with the items being temporary stock as a result. Doing everything and a few emergent chests, I have 1500.

    @SeaOfThieves can we actually fix our game before we implement new systems? Here I am trying to pvp and get better at pvp and I'm... 1.) Glitching though my boat? 2.) Grabbing the latter when I interact with anything in my ship that requires interaction? 3.) all of the above? 3.

    @SeaOfThieves @RareLtd @Rare Adding to this its sad to see a game that was in my life since i was 15 fall so far as it has, why cant you fix bugs,remove the acts system and add more permant content instead of taking it away like molten sands, that was incredibly fun cause it used the trading companies

    @SeaOfThieves The deed for act one for damaging someone with a cannonball in a faction battle is not working, Iโ€™ve damaged people multiple times and even killed someone with one, any chance we can get this addressed when possible? Thank you!

    @SeaOfThieves acknowledge the even worse hourglass exploit where people can get 100โ€™s of streaks in a short time allowing anyone to cheese the 1k curses in a single day itโ€™s so broken!!!

    @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.

    Some didn't like #SeaOfThieves by @theburntpeanut Which of the three options would have been better? 1) Cheaters crash server 2) 8 hours of boring empty sea sailing + one battle against AFK solo-loop 3) HG where they'll be sunk so quickly they won't even know what happened

    @SeaOfThieves @youtooz Fix ur game, harpooning me off a cannon shouldnโ€™t glitch me to where I cant go back to the ferry after death and canโ€™t use any weapons or items.

    @SeaOfThieves Is it just me or am I getting unstable ping issues with this game over that weekend? I know I live in Australia, but my internet connection is stable and that is on Xbox Series X. ๐Ÿซค

    @SeaOfThieves Please for the love of God, fix your buggy game. I've literally never experienced more game breaking bugs any other time than during bilgerats weekend.

    @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.

    Some @SeaOfThieves viewers/streamers really need a reality check on what cheating actually looks like. Watched a streamer get sniped 3x in an hour today. The fights were suspicious (insane air shots, constant mid-air hits, etc.), but the chat was screaming "cheater" for things that were easily debunked. Ladder speeds were normal on VOD, and "insta-kills" were just players not being full HP. (I also encounter this kind of problem, but I always check a clip out or rethink what happened) Itโ€™s easy to lose cool live, but we have to analyze before we accuse. Grateful the streamer kept a level head. The REAL issue? Public sites still exist that track specific players and server ship counts. How is this still live after a months? Cloudflare should be handing over data for a lawsuit at this point. Hoping this reaches the right eyes. @ChappersChapman @S0nicbob

    @SeaOfThieves What was good: - The challenges, firework display, decorations. What was really bad for me: - We barely found players doing the voyages. If we found one after server hopping for hours, it was always a swabbie, because the decent players already finished their 3 voyages in ~30 mins. I think the challenges should be the main sources of doubloons, not the limited voyages on an already time limited event. A swabbie might get all 3 of them stolen and then that's it, only the minority of the playerbase are determined enough to search for people for hours, this part of the event is just not fun.. I don't have a problem with pvp, but just punching down on bad players isn't it.

    The stream didnโ€™t even last an hourโ€ฆ How did we not learn from Jynxzi, @RareLtd? Events like this make me sad to even admit how many hours Iโ€™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

    @SoT_Support @Jumper92PL @SeaOfThieves I'm seeing reports that yall are just literally ignoring tickets about this issue. And apparently the support people are removing the items cause they 'simply can't understand how someone can get all those items' even when shown they were reset and farmed the items. Do better

    @squidkiller8781 @Dambitt_ @SeaOfThieves well look, cheaters aren't really a big problem now. There were less of them than the actual number of bugs. They made them "grind" to be able to play Hourglass, so most risks their main profile in the process or completely given up on playing with those. (Yes on PC)

    @Nathanonfire2 @SeaOfThieves It wouldn't fix the problem indefinitely but it would help a lot... with how often the game crashes you shouldn't have to worry about your name getting leaked on the main menu... Trying to do something is better then nothing.

    @CaptainQuaa @SeaOfThieves Sadly , Shrouded ghost is gatekeep beside a RNG game mechanic and Spawn timer mechanic. Rarity is not the trouble , but how meg spawn is the main issue ... Arround 1h45 to get a single meg .... and only 0.02 % of chance to get the great one.

    @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.

    @MOB_xGAMERx @SeaOfThieves The code of conduct thatโ€™s on the wall of the tavern says โ€œkeep battles on the seasโ€ or something along those lines and instead of taking it to mean โ€œdonโ€™t bring problems out of the gameโ€ and instead take it literally to mean โ€œyou can only battle people on the open waterโ€
