Sea of Thieves Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • Taaaaamas Taaamas (@Taaaaamas) reported

    @kola5 @GH_Honamar @SeaOfThieves What do you mean they didn't acknowledge it, they put it all over their socials, kept their support twitter up to date with no info regarding it, promoting people's art regarding said error, and even extended the duration of the event... Not to mention the devs mentioning it too.

  • Valor_Omega_SoT Valor Omega - The Researcher (@Valor_Omega_SoT) reported

    @GH_Honamar @SeaOfThieves Let's hope the community can have a modicum of respect this time, if there's technical issues.

  • trg_fade FadeSOT (@trg_fade) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Dont let servers crash please

  • BenPaddon Ben Paddon (@BenPaddon) reported

    After almost a year and a half, @SeaOfThieves decided it no longer wanted to be installed on my second hard drive and stopped working. I deleted and reinstalled, but got the dreaded 0x80070005 error. Nothing I tried would fix it.

  • BelladonnaRobin 🦋 Changeling 🦋 (@BelladonnaRobin) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Make sure to stock up on plenty of wood to fix the serve- uh, I mean ship

  • noob76052507 oxynatOr (@noob76052507) reported

    @MinkRoyal @SeaOfThieves wait, you not talking anbout BlackScreen for 3 Minutes. Major latency peask... Islands not rendering. HitReg.... tbh, its getting worst and worst. with new content the issues become bigger and bigger. the meg blocking the adventure, can have the same issue like a game bug.

  • oneleafclover5 Umut S. (@oneleafclover5) reported

    @SeaOfThieves After the last 1,5 gb update, game is so laggy and unplayable right now, please fix it.

  • JamesJaxon7 James Jaxon (@JamesJaxon7) reported

    @Pharaoh_Rising @SeaOfThieves Yeah it was pretty brutal I'd already been up 52 hours when I started the server and whatnot so I stuck out and got extremely lucky and had an entire server for my crew and around the time people started having issues all but at least person were kicked off the boats

  • Youredoneson666 Youredoneson (@Youredoneson666) reported

    @argenys @Hoody_chan2002 @SeaOfThieves The "new weapons" you're talking about are the ones in this post. They reskinned the 250 wins skin. THATS THE PROBLEM. If you spent the time getting 250 WINS in arena, you should have an exclusive skin for it.

  • XboxOneReece 🦅Abomination Gaming🦅 (@XboxOneReece) reported

    @SeaOfThieves 2 issues myself and @She_a_Squish are having right now. The achievement for completing the Legend of the Veil as a grade 5 athena isn't unlocking. Glitch where items placed in the treasure chests are randomly disappearing. We've lost a few pieces of athena loot through this

  • argenys Argenys 🇺🇦 (@argenys) reported

    @Youredoneson666 @Hoody_chan2002 @SeaOfThieves Dude the issue was having it behind arena to begin with. That very set you can get for Athena everything minus weapons behind arena before. That being said I think arena people deserve more than the boat set they got, and should get some new weapons to make up for it.

  • brandon_tansey Brandon Tansey (@brandon_tansey) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Sooo nothing on the collectors chest glitch?

  • AtleHillheim Manko (@AtleHillheim) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Please fix the lavenderbeardthing on Pc

  • CapriceCrow Emily.Crow (@CapriceCrow) reported

    @Evilslither1 @ODIN_XBOX @SeaOfThieves Spawn camping is insanely toxic. What are you going on about? These poor game mechanics creates a game culture of player animosity, of which only serves to frustrate players, instead of challenge them organically. The scuttle option is a band-aide for an obvious broken mechanic.

  • rob_wease Rob Wease (@rob_wease) reported

    @SeaOfThieves How about fix the damn game before adding more **** to it.

  • djadip7 ADI-P (@djadip7) reported

    @SeaOfThieves needs to sort out the solo experience. This nosense of players not even fighting you and just destroying your ship while you busy in a vault is dog **** and then you spawn on the other side of the map. Guys theres no problem with PvP, but atleast fight me then sink

  • Sethiliminal Seth 🍥 (@Sethiliminal) reported

    @SeaOfThieves I'm begging you guys to fix the new Athena's missions it's too hard for the team that completes it to get the chest of legends I've already stolen 5 today 😔🥺

  • ODIN_XBOX iODIN (@ODIN_XBOX) reported

    @Evilslither1 @SeaOfThieves It doesn't....but it also doesn't effect me that they do it, I play on adventure and have no issue.... if people wanna go through a massive effort to get a server alliance who cares? it doesn't effect adventure atall.

  • jjsnow86 John Snow (@jjsnow86) reported

    @Non_Shallot @SeaOfThieves Servers can't handle more than 5 and get unstable... Even streamers on $10k computers were having issues... Don't even ask about Xbox stability with 6 boats..

  • Wayne90600953 Wayne (@Wayne90600953) reported

    @SeaOfThieves I still can't get on. It is still giving me Lavenderbeard error

  • dbrodish63 Donnadark (@dbrodish63) reported

    @SeaOfThieves I CANNOT do adventure. can you fix it please?

  • WLovely212 WickedLovely212 (@WLovely212) reported

    @SeaOfThieves @SeaOfThievesHQ can you please fix the load in the game as it takes forever to load in if your fighting anything after you die, or loading into the game in general. Also when you merge lobbies it makes the player lose quest they were playing:

  • Garrett36771048 50ftfall (@Garrett36771048) reported

    @FIlipCulek @SeaOfThieves That's been a problem for a while some items refuse to be picked up for no apparent reason.

  • HunchoPlayz Huncho Playz (@HunchoPlayz) reported

    @RareLtd @SeaOfThieves Stop updating ship and fix your ******* game

  • HunchoPlayz Huncho Playz (@HunchoPlayz) reported

    @SeaOfThieves @RareLtd Stop updating **** and fix the ******* game!

  • Strixelated Sonny | Strix (@Strixelated) reported

    @SeaOfThieves So it's down for a 4~ GB update to fix a deed pinging, adjusting an emissary rate and changing some images over in a quest... Seems steep. Is something missing from the release notes?

  • JamesJaxon7 James Jaxon (@JamesJaxon7) reported

    @deeproots79 @SeaOfThieves Well I had started a server at around 3 or 4 am and got all the boats allied and we all got in before the whole servers had their issues but at one point the entire group only had 1 player left on each boat

  • kkenz98 𝔹𝔸𝕊𝕊 𝕊𝕃𝕌𝕋 ⛓⚔️ (@kkenz98) reported

    @SeaOfThieves is anyone else having that storage crate glitch where you’ll fill it up and once you set it down everything disappears?😭

  • memn4rch Memnarch (@memn4rch) reported

    @SeaOfThieves will rain get an upgrade/fix one day? Raindrops do not collide with surfaces and islands stay dry during it, while a ship looks wet. Noticed it today, and can't unsee the rain being a flat curtain in front of my camera o.o

  • wheelblazer Max WheelBlazer (@wheelblazer) reported

    @SeaOfThieves it's hard to actually enjoy the game when it's so f***ing broken al the time! server lag, NPC's that glitch, quests that glitch. Please fix your product so i can enjoy the thing i paid for.
