    @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

    @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? 🤔

    @SkeleCurseIRL @SeaOfThieves Holy **** I have a problem. I wish I DIDNT look this up.

    @SeaOfThieves Great actually. I have been playing other games and havent plyed since January. I keep checking but continue to see the devs are just as incompetent as always! To those playing, your complaints are being heard but they dont care and it will continue to be a broken mess

    Looking at these reviews for @SeaOfThieves on Xbox and A LOT of them want the same thing. A PVE mode where you can play with friends. I don’t understand why this is a bad thing. Remove safer seas. Make that an “Invite only” server and allow up to 6 boats. Problem solved.

    @SeaOfThieves this is, without a doubt, one of the worst update videos ever. by any major live service title. how anyone, at any level, thought any of these decisions were good, is beyond me.

    @SeaOfThieves fix the hourglass exploit already people casually getting 100,200+ streaks in a short time and getting gold curses in less than a day. Pointless making a game mode dedicated to grinding if you stay quiet about people exploiting the system to make the grind non existent.

    @TippToppHansiI @SeaOfThieves @theburntpeanut Yeah i've played 4-5 days now. 2 of those days i was booted offline. One of those days it happened 20 times. Not sure how anyone defends this. And bad connections effect solo players even more because they have a razor thin margin of error to begin with.

  • BavarianDiablo

    @2old4stream @SeaOfThieves The issue I think rare has is they have too many conflicting points of interest in their own structure. I belong(ed) to the hardcore veteran players who felt being consistently overheard by the dev team to cater toward the casual gamepass players. That has ruined the game for me.

    @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 ***

    @SeaOfThieves "We know there's fundamental problems to combat and movement right now but we're not gonna ship the fixes we have until the 3rd act of the season (which we've delayed)" Great job, guys!

  • Jimbinky
    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.

    @SeaOfThieves @gaming_4nj4 A lot of the codes are broken, don’t bother sending tickets to rare about it, they will just tell you to talk to Microsoft which is full of AI agents lol

    @SeaOfThieves are there issues with being able to log-in on PS5 to your servers to be able to play the game ?

    @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

    @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:

    DK2️⃣ (@DayKahDos) reported

    @KingHotdogPig @SeaOfThieves The problem with the voyage cap isn’t even the 3 per pirate - it’s the fact you can only complete 3 before it gives gold instead of doubloons. Apologies if this is what you meant - but I figured that we were gonna be able to do at least 12 (3x4 on gally) but couldn’t obviously

    @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.

    @JakesBadd @SeaOfThieves Diminishing the issue at hand with raising other, very valid, problems, is not a way to progress.

    @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
