  • Krogbear30 Krogbear (@Krogbear30) reported

    @SeaOfThieves You deal with the hacker and cheater problem?

  • Crazydamo109 Damoplayz (@Crazydamo109) reported

    @SeaOfThieves are there any plans to upgrade servers because alot of people can't access their ships or season progression not to meantion in game shops. Its been an issue for few months since this is a problem

  • keegan19099017 KB123 🕗 (@keegan19099017) reported

    @Falcon59875668 @SeaOfThieves and that's great for pvp players, but the issue lies when you have one crew that has sunk 100+ crews and are extremely proficient in pvp sinking and going after a crew that has only played the game for 5 hours or so. private servers still have no downside

  • constantina88 Constantina88 (@constantina88) reported

    @barryggould1 @SeaOfThieves I did check the internet and everything else. If I was having problems why didn't lancer have any.

  • PoggersDuck Jurassic Duck (@PoggersDuck) reported

    @Joe_The_Human94 @SeaOfThieves I am Athena. Today I actually got into fights without having to wait more than 3 minutes. It was nice. Only problem now is that my opponents are too skilled for me

  • cdeshaw1986 Christopher Deshaw (@cdeshaw1986) reported

    @XboxGamePass @SeaOfThieves At least irl your not rubber banding everywhere. GAME IS SO BROKEN

  • Melzy10118961 Melzy (@Melzy10118961) reported

    @SeaOfThieves servers down?

  • constantina88 Constantina88 (@constantina88) reported

    @SeaOfThieves For your game not to have any problems!!!

  • Zyx_XBL Zyx (@Zyx_XBL) reported

    @InkyGhosts @RareLtd @SeaOfThieves At least this guys are only boosting without hurting anyone, usually they leave a spot for a random crew to invade and blast them in a 1v5 battle. Imho Rare have to focus first in QoL and fix what makes people stop playing this game mode, queue times, cheaters and balancing

  • Sam_Ericson16 Sam (@Sam_Ericson16) reported

    @InkyGhosts @RareLtd @SeaOfThieves My take: This isn't an issue. While sure, it bypasses the pvp nature. It's to both be expected (since Rare) and unless they don't have all the boats it doesn't affect the wider playerbase so becomes a non issue. Cheesy? sure, needs fixing? ehhh.

  • Junior373_xd Junior_373 XD (@Junior373_xd) reported

    @SeaOfThieves PLEASE FIX THE MATCHMAKING

  • barryggould1 barry g gould (@barryggould1) reported

    @constantina88 @SeaOfThieves next time that happens. check your nat. if it says moderate or closed that could be the issue. i had that problem a lot with f13 when it first came out.

  • Deacon72Poole DarkP101 (@Deacon72Poole) reported

    @cbcplayer @SeaOfThieves People always say that if there was a 5 or 6 player ship, then it would crash the server/the server wouldn’t be able to handle having multiple of them near each other at one time Ok, then just have there be a limit of 1 or 2 per server?

  • supercook5 Chris O'Rourke (@supercook5) reported

    @SeaOfThieves 🤬😡🤬😡🤬only because my game doesn't work lavenderbeard error every damn time tried all solutions

  • mikefunk91 Mike Fake (@mikefunk91) reported

    @SeaOfThieves can you please fix your " on demand" PvP. This is absolutely ridiculous. I have waited over 90 minutes and not a single match found. I have reset twice. The kicker? Map says under a minute estimated wait time...... FIGURE THIS OUT. It's said that whole time.

  • Kharjo19 Kharjo (@Kharjo19) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Slightly better sailing mechanics. Ex: triangle sails between the main square rigged sails. This could fix (somewhat) sailing against the wind.

  • Krogbear30 Krogbear (@Krogbear30) reported

    @MixelPlx @SeaOfThieves I will notify my crews to avoid the new battle mode until the cheating problem is fixed

  • EllieBoopPlays EllieBoop (@EllieBoopPlays) reported

    Matchmaking was pretty rough tonight on a galleon EU servers. Looooong match wait times for both factions. First time we've had issues though. Any more specific ETA on the matchmaking changes @keeyaaaa ? #SeaOfThieves

  • jawsspace12345 Kekada (@jawsspace12345) reported

    @CaptMorganTSF @SeaOfThieves Just a tinsey tiny drinking problem

  • HimboAlessandro 🎃Alessandro Brambilla🎃 (@HimboAlessandro) reported

    Ayo @SeaOfThieves put the seafort music on Apple Music already. I hate having to login to hear that absolute banger of soundtracks Soldats fantome and Capitain fantome

  • thesameagus Agus (@thesameagus) reported

    @SeaOfThieves FIX ur stupid pairing in pvp Level 500 vs Level 20 wtf

  • cdeshaw1986 Christopher Deshaw (@cdeshaw1986) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Rare PLEASE entirely fix Hit Reg. Or make PVE servers.. Losing all progress to a broken combat system gets old. Season 8 is about to make me stop playing based on skill meaning nothing with my dude rubber banding every fight! This is not fun, nor feels fair! Sounds too familiar

  • HobeJoshua Joshua Hobé (@HobeJoshua) reported

    @SeaOfThieves mate fix ur broken game please, it's been so broken since season 6 and you guys don't even bother getting it fixed. This game is dying thanks to you all only caring about mtx

  • HighTideJim High Tide Jim (@HighTideJim) reported

    @DreadedDripp @SeaOfThieves @RareLtd Looks to me like they'd be named Trouble, Chaos and Strife.......they look shifty....

  • GingieCaptain Captain Gingie (@GingieCaptain) reported

    @Wermux @SeaOfThieves I’ve been at 49/50 for a week lol playing on EU servers with friend so I haven’t got any credit. Wish they would fix this!

  • PersonalC0ffee PersonalC0ffee (@PersonalC0ffee) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Sorting out the double gun exploits, especially the quick swapping, laying waste to the toxicity issues and cheaters, and fixing hit reg.

  • LootinLizalaroo Lootin’ Lizalaroo #SoTFest (@LootinLizalaroo) reported

    @ChloeSauras @SeaOfThieves More time. That is definitely the problem I have too Chlo!

  • BladeRoninn Blade 🇨🇺 🇺🇸 (@BladeRoninn) reported

    @Falcon59875668 @SeaOfThieves How is a flag you can fly if you choose not to participate in player versus player combat not a tool? For the rest of that lobby you'd be unable to do damage to any player controlled ship or person but neither than they. What is the problem ?

  • _JimmySall_ JimmySall (@_JimmySall_) reported

    @LoganBa52122997 @SeaOfThieves It's broken.
