    @Toast205 @LordofCh8os @SeaOfThieves Reportedly DDoS (Distributed Denial of Service) attacks. Isn't the first time it's been seen either.. Both Peanut situations specifically have been within a hour.

    @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

    @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 :(

    @leoleon2leau @SeaOfThieves No, you have absolutely ZERO idea what you're talking about. Unreal 5 is worse than what we have. What you're effectively saying is that a unicycle does better than a broken bike.

    @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....

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

    @DrD1sconnect @SeaOfThieves I play solo about 75% of the time. I see no issues? Except maybe level 5 reapers diving into the server. But I just check map, sell, then attack!

    @Giovann69642526 @SeaOfThieves I know. I played last ship standing for 3 years. Which is why I say what I did about it not working. It creates a "survival mentality" rather than engaging in combat. Even worse as sloop.

    @SeaOfThieves Man I want my content even if it's broken just fix it in hot patches I seriously never seen a company that never ever uses hot patches to update mid game for small tweaks

    Sot is actually a rotting burning dumpster fire. Support and devs can’t ban or catch real cheaters and ban legit players and tell the community they are taking care of the cheating problem #seaofthieves #bemorepirate #rare

    @AkuUkaa @SeaOfThieves Don't worry. James Thomas said in a Nov. 2024 podcast they're putting a team together to look at the merchant supply crate bug. Even when we report bugs, they respond quickly to fix them right? Right?

    @SeaOfThieves Please just fix the spawn rate of Green message in a bottles. I just want to have organic adventures again…I found 17…SEVENTEEN Smugglers bottles in just 2 hours today.

    @Mephisto_hub @SeaOfThieves I did this on purpose it's not edited. I wanted the guards to look like they are glitch and can move faster than time itself.

    @SeaOfThieves Sounds to me like us doing the work testing their game and reporting problems is something they should reward us for since games used to be tested and fixed before release not after and game testers either got paid or got a copy of the game before release now they are just lazy

    @SeaOfThieves So we gotta wait about 4 hours. And then we get beard errors all day when playing or logging in? Lol. Jk.

    @webtoonofficial @SeaOfThieves @XboxGamePass Hello! I’ve read all 5 Sea of Thieves comics, but I haven’t received the Xbox Game Pass coupon by email. Has there been any problem?

  • AkuUkaa

    @SeaOfThieves I think its alright if insiders can find out bugs and report them, but if the developers fix the bugs? idk, the game is stable for now compared to other online games, it took them years to fix the underwater bug :/

  • 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.

    Master (@Lotus_Koril) reported

    @poetniknowit @SeaOfThieves I know that it wont. Ive been sitting 42 kegs for a long time, even before smugglers. The problem is when you finish all the crates, but still need 50+ kegs. Getting a single keg has a chance of 4% per bottle. But hey Drew said theyre working on the fix now, lets hope its good.

    @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? 🤔

    @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.

    @IamGreen112 @JoniK90461517 @SeaOfThieves But it’s obviously nothing compared to limited time things which are gone forever. In fairness we don’t know how long the rotations will be. If they’re quick I hardly see an issue with this

    @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. 🫤
