    @SeaOfThieves Player that has played since day 1 here,✋ Horrible experience. Hopped back to test the event and new doubloon system. Doubloons not coming through, servers lagging like hell on last ship standing (ships flying, long waiting time...) Please, I love the game, fix something🙏

    @SeaOfThieves Dead game Dev team covers up a member who is a **** preying on children. Discord server guilty as well. Ignoring their disgusting issues. Good riddance

    Huge W’s for SoT today, diving took out what was so special about this game’s experience. Pretty sure this game is marketed as a “shared world experience”. It is kind of insane how many people are complaining about this; ya’ll are the problem! #SeaOfThieves #BeMorePirate

    @SeaOfThieves •“After besting their rivals to become the Last Ship Standing, winners are now given additional time to collect their spoils and head to the final portal.” Nope this is not working still, I didn’t get time to turn the ship to harpoon the flag before I got transported back!

    @SeaOfThieves Fix the fact that you play solo pvp and go against a brig it’s BS should be 1v1 nothing else

    @shenanigoon @RareLtd @SeaOfThieves I truly hope so. It's so disheartening to see everything that's happened. Nevermind the lack of trust from the current game issues, this happening has been a major black spot on this game/studio. I still have a sliver of hope left, but frankly I am not holding my breath.

    @SeaOfThieves Fixed the problem where Galeones could hourglass que against solo sloops?

  • Lotus_Koril
    Master (@Lotus_Koril) reported

    @RobertByron23 @SeaOfThieves Its 3 per player, which means up to 12 on a galleon. It takes more skill to use a blunderbuss then it does to use a bonecaller. And if you were a good player, you would be able to outplay the ladder guard, even with a blunderbuss. So yea, it a massive skill issue on youre side.

  • Twigleaf_Twigs

    @EqualTree3 @SeaOfThieves Their event last week, the pop up plunder..... Didn't even work. So extending, or retrying is futile. They have no clue what they're doing. That's a fact. No amount of extending will fix it.

  • SweetSandMan
    SweetSandman (@SweetSandMan) reported

    @supermariopla11 @SeaOfThieves That's...that's not what's causing server performance to suck. Like at all. Preventing expansion of the game, maybe. But not server issues. If anything, high end PCs with uncapped FPS and/or max graphics cause more server strain. But even that isn't the underlying issue.

    @SeaOfThieves Are you guys ever going to fix the fps teleport glitch, I’m sick of playing on 144fps when I could be playing on uncapped

  • Valor_Omega_SoT
    Valor Omega, Yonko of the Sea of Thieves (@Valor_Omega_SoT) reported

    @ToodleJerr3196 @RareLtd @SeaOfThieves Absolutely agree. Even with the actual game issues currently, I still have some hope for a future. But it's going to be very hard to trust Rare moving forward, and they are going to need to do some major work to gain player's trust back.

  • RevBombRR
    RevBombRR Official (@RevBombRR) reported

    @SeaOfThieves The fact that the game is this old and you guys still can't figure out how to release an update says something about the dev team. If I was this bad at my job, I definitely wouldn't have 19 seasons to fix it

  • Lthlnd
    Lothlend (@Lthlnd) reported

    @SteezyyTommyy @OzurianArt @SeaOfThieves Maybe he should use his fingers to actually talk about the issues facing the community instead of grandstanding about “delete muh account” and farming moral applause. “Recent events” tells people absolutely nothing. Hope this helps!

    @SeaOfThieves your game is now trash and plagued by swarms of cheaters. I get you just ban them cause cheaters are happy to buy multiple copies of the game so its a + for your revenue, but how about just fixing the issue instead of being money hungry pigs that cover up pdf for a laugh,.

    @SeaOfThieves Ok, sounds good, but you have to fix your community management structure first.

    @Kk123153210 @Giovann69642526 @SeaOfThieves Yeah, but this is not first not working update. They had more time, literally removed all the content from season 19 to makie this mode work and even moved it for a month later to release and it didnt work. Then, they release it again after more time and it has even more issues

  • NicaDeamuS55
    Matt McKeown (@NicaDeamuS55) reported

    @SeaOfThieves With every update comes 100s of more bugs and exploits. But hey release new content good job on that. Oh wait the content is broken constantly. But wait you know what will fix broken content....? Wait for it.....more broken content. Absolutely trash you guys need new jobs

    @HitboTC @SeaOfThieves The emporium seems to not work as well as RARE would like to, given that they are restructuring it into a Fortnite like shop that swaps out cosmetics now and then (which is dumb as heck). But the real issue many won't spend money is because many sets look absolutely out of place

  • Xyllius
    Xyllius (@Xyllius) reported

    @Musks_a_cunt @KingHotdogPig @SeaOfThieves I'm not saying they handle everything correctly right now, but that's just how companies work. Also, putting "their people" on public prangers could get them into legal issues too, which might be the main reason for them to do it "behind the scenes" in the first place.

  • AboutSelphy

    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. It’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

    @TheDruhMooreon @codeman25955 @SeaOfThieves Dude's out here spreading drama. Let the new players enjoy all the wonders SoT has to offer! Sure there's a cheater problem, but there's also ways around it ESPECIALLY for a new player. And updates haven't been the same, but that doesn't matter to a new player. Let them have fun.

    My last LSS match had 2 airborne boats & one that never surfaced. Emerging from under water looks cool, but seems to cause more issues in this game mode. @SeaOfThieves #SeaOfThieves

    @SeaOfThieves I understand you made you made your game specifically for Xbox, and pc. But the fact that you haven't coded for Mac OS is ridiculous. You have it coded for steam, SO FIX IT

  • Sloopflex
    Matt (@Sloopflex) reported

    I don’t make a lot of comments about sot issues but it is truly baffling to me how much the SoT community is blowing up right now and Rare is staying silent and dodging it. Action needs to be taken. Do better @SeaOfThieves and you need to FIRE @j0toro
