    @Padam500 @SeaOfThieves Literally same issue for me

  • 01_alastor Alastor 01 (@01_alastor) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Fix matchmaking times

  • BilyJesusworth Billy Jesusworth (@BilyJesusworth) reported

    @Hitbotc @SeaOfThieves Some of these match making times are ridiculous. I feel as soon as i get to 5 wins then you are lucky to get to 6 and 7. But if you get passed that then the match making is decent. Something about becoming champion makes it glitch i feel like.

  • SlamDannigan SLaM Dannigan (@SlamDannigan) reported

    Oi oi! Unpopular opinion: To fix the blunder spam issue in Season 8 of @SeaOfThieves make “throwables” throwable only… Up the held amount to 5 of each only Sorted!

  • Gldi2020 Captain Chicken (@Gldi2020) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Plead fix the duo sloop and solo sloop matchmaking. I've been matchmade as a solo sloop with a duo sloop. 2 times already. I've seen it happen to other players to. I know this is intentional, but it would be really great if you where to get rid of the fact that other ships can-

  • Corviwhite Doc Alestir (@Corviwhite) reported

    Season 8 is here and the reapers are just as sweaty and toxic as ever. Hell even more so. Nice to see this pvp update that was supposedly going to fix toxicity only made things worse. 10/10 update @RareLtd #SeaOfThieves #season8

  • RLFurryVideos Ryv and/or Lerks @ MFF (@RLFurryVideos) reported

    @DrakiousDerg @SeaOfThieves Lol! Now I have to go to Ancient Spire and try that before they fix it!

  • Chance_SoT Chance (@Chance_SoT) reported

    There’s obviously a few issues with this new update, but overall I am having the best time in SoT that i’ve had in the past year or so. @SeaOfThieves totally killed it with this update, and I’m super excited to see what more they can do it with it. #SeaOfThieves

  • xMLG_Drizzy Dave+ (@xMLG_Drizzy) reported

    Seems to be a recurring issue that players run from PVP during the raids. The circle should shrink over time to ensure that people engage in fights and not ride the circle @SeaOfThieves @SoT_Support

  • burgeevred Spron (@burgeevred) reported

    @SeaOfThieves fix hit reg. 3 ******* seasons. also very toxic player base. joined an open crew gally being attacked by a sloop saying “were gonna report you “ over and over. needless to say i gave them something to report. anyway. fix your ******* game.

  • CommanderXHydra CommanderXHydra (@CommanderXHydra) reported

    And every time we lose my crew has to restart the game cause it doesn’t even load us into a new server. Fix your game @SeaOfThieves

  • CommanderXHydra CommanderXHydra (@CommanderXHydra) reported

    @Falcon59875668 @SeaOfThieves Yeah, but hours upon hours of playing? My crew and I had a decent run at the end. Literally sunk one ship and we went to do our last round and it was the same guys! No way it’s at the beginning. I think it’s broken entirely!

  • CaptainJack1230 Captain Jack (@CaptainJack1230) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Anyone else having issues with cannons being bugged and not shooting during the battle?

  • fogrob Braaaap Delivery Service (@fogrob) reported

    Has anyone had issues with crossplay on #SeaOfThieves ? Had two friends playing on steam and I couldn’t join with one of them. “Join game” was grayed out.

  • MasterCrabs01 Master Crab (@MasterCrabs01) reported

    @bobjoe54215696 @GreatTweetJohn @SeaOfThieves Problem with that in this case is treasure donated to ship appeared in top right if it was underwater it would just explode not give me renown they would have to be on or above my boat to drop and donate so to speak

  • bobjoe54215696 captain hare formally known as bob joe (@bobjoe54215696) reported

    @GreatTweetJohn @MasterCrabs01 @SeaOfThieves then i guess it was keg torpedo glitch

  • MysticTrix91 MysticTrix (@MysticTrix91) reported

  • VelvetHandss VelvetHands (@VelvetHandss) reported

    Sea of Thieves Twitch Drops have been very buggy for me tonight. I’m getting an ‘Error Occurred Drop was not claimed’ when I click to claim the RMS Dress hat and it won’t let me progress to the last drop, the RMS Dress Jacket! #SeaOfThieves
