    @SeaOfThieves If players turn off it’s your own fault not acting on this problem.

  • Falcon59875668 Falcon (@Falcon59875668) reported

    @HobeJoshua @SeaOfThieves And me and many players dont have that problem. I had that problem when I was playing on xbox one. I had that problem on pc/xbox series x when my internet wasnt working properly. In other times it works properly.

    @SmithyBug @SeaOfThieves how long has rare been promising this huh? 2-3 years now? yet we see some minor things and they seem to be only focusing on "new content" yet they turn a blind eye to the most major issue in the game.

  • Falcon59875668 Falcon (@Falcon59875668) reported

    @BrunodiazGaming @shenanigoon @SeaOfThieves Its just funny how playwrs threat it like huge issue when its just small issue. Much more cheaters you can find in many games that have anti cheats. Its issue. But not that big

  • BrunodiazGaming Brunodiaz (@BrunodiazGaming) reported

    @Falcon59875668 @shenanigoon @SeaOfThieves If you don't think a person hitting an "auto-fix boat" button, flying around, esp, etc is a problem then you really don't need to chime in, just go praise them for what they're up to. It is an issue and it should be addressed. Stop gate keeping for cheaters. Have a good day bud.

  • SSJG_Andre DarthTroll (@SSJG_Andre) reported

    @DarbyGlizzy @SeaOfThieves The problem is you man. You are the one doing boring ****.

  • LordWhisperr Lord Whisperr (@LordWhisperr) reported

    @K1ttyKraken @SeaOfThieves They can fix hitreg while they're at it

  • Falcon59875668 Falcon (@Falcon59875668) reported

    @HobeJoshua @SeaOfThieves Its mostly issue with your wi-fi or computer/xbox

  • Falcon59875668 Falcon (@Falcon59875668) reported

    @BrunodiazGaming @shenanigoon @SeaOfThieves Cheating in sot is not huge problem. Most of players who encounter cheaters are tryhards who play 20-100 fights per day and encounter 1 cheaters crew every few days. Many videos also have same cheaters. For normal player its not a huge problem.

    @shenanigoon @Falcon59875668 @SeaOfThieves Sorry man. I do apologize. Please forgive me for wanting a healthier game. I can see that minimalizing the opinions of others for an issue that has been substantiated by many is your kink and I don't like to kink shame. Go get yours. I got your back. Be safe out there Arbiter.

  • HobeJoshua Joshua Hobé (@HobeJoshua) reported

    @Falcon59875668 @Brocco_sot @SeaOfThieves but there is also no game as broken as this one

  • petyr_br Cold (@petyr_br) reported

    @just_a_sketch @SeaOfThieves Why would I? I want to play on my own region, but the game keep matching me on 200ms+ servers. When I set sail by myself, the game is able to put me on a 45ms server with no problem.

  • onions2go onions2go (@onions2go) reported

    @SeaOfThieves fix your game I just played on a brig and a sloop was faster despite we had full wind and they somehow were immortal my crew blundered him and slashed him 4 times I set his mast on fire and yet they still manage to destroy the boat in 2 cannon ***** I'm done.

  • Spanospy Spanospy (@Spanospy) reported

    @Xodeusism @SeaOfThieves They just brought on Lucid Games to support the development of the game, so maybe there will be some tackling of that big issue.

  • Haabana_ Haabana (@Haabana_) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Any anticheat? We got a problem, something it's not ok

  • epicsugarplumx 🇺🇦🏳️‍🌈💜RealEpicSugarPlum💜🏳️‍🌈🇺🇦 (@epicsugarplumx) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Maybe fix the bugs instead trying to make a quick buck

  • BrunodiazGaming Brunodiaz (@BrunodiazGaming) reported

    @UnicornLunae @SeaOfThieves Yeah, I don't think all 200 work on SOT though. Just a shame. I haven't been enjoying it it months, come back and actually enjoy it and the same night we run into auto-fix and flying kegs. Laughed my *** off through it, it was a losing battle to begin with ha

  • Vertigo_Collins Vertigo 🎡 (@Vertigo_Collins) reported

    @SeaOfThieves How about fixing the issue where we can't purchase Ship supplies and when the merchants sometimes say "I can’t find that right now try again later"?

  • BrunodiazGaming Brunodiaz (@BrunodiazGaming) reported

    @Mrs480 Yeah, I get exceptions to the normal, that is just something that will happen. I just don't get how these guys are gate keeping for obvious issues by saying that "trying is hard so don't do it" when it comes to anti-cheat for @SeaOfThieves

  • Slappa1993 Slappa (@Slappa1993) reported

    @SoT_Support @SeaOfThieves I tried submiting a ticket with longer version of the video with the incident and it's keep giving me errors whenever I press on submit button. I tried using different browsers and relogging countless times, nothing seems to fix the issues.

  • Brocco_sot Broccoflower (@Brocco_sot) reported

    @HobeJoshua @SeaOfThieves Are you really that arrogant, that you think they can fix their issues with a couple of clicks? I may not be a dev, but if it hasn’t been fixed for the last 5 years, I’m gonna go on a limb and say it’s a difficult task

  • zlutyvtipnypes zlutyvtipnypes (@zlutyvtipnypes) reported

    @SeaOfThieves amazing how you still did not fix the balance issue

  • BrunodiazGaming Brunodiaz (@BrunodiazGaming) reported

    @Mrs480 @SeaOfThieves I think I understand some of the issues they would have with anti-cheat. Such as, there are so many physics issues that send your character flying, right? like, across the sea FAR. Hard to put in detection for someone flying when it's just...apart of the game lol. Issues.

  • BrunodiazGaming Brunodiaz (@BrunodiazGaming) reported

    @UnicornLunae @SeaOfThieves Game mechanics for detection can be an issue for anti-cheat. Like what I just said to @Mrs480 , flying being detected and resulting in a ban/kick from a session would be an issue when the game itself makes people fly by accident. Game needs work + the anti-cheat. Tough problem.

  • HobeJoshua Joshua Hobé (@HobeJoshua) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Maybe fix the loading times on loading into the game instead of asking for more fecking mtx bs

  • ToejahMM ToejahM (@ToejahMM) reported

    @SeaOfThieves I thought stacking all that stuff was just a skill issue and not an exploit? Interesting! I'm glad no partners and top players used that at all! 🪣

  • CappyBara69 cappy wants you to cite your video sources (@CappyBara69) reported

    @LucidGamesLtd @RareLtd @SeaOfThieves rip future lucid games titles, company now relegated to supporting a live service game by a company that should’ve given us a new banjo kazooie game by now

  • HobeJoshua Joshua Hobé (@HobeJoshua) reported

    @Falcon59875668 @SeaOfThieves ehhh nope, my friend has the same issue

  • scheneighnay Breezy Yeezy (@scheneighnay) reported

    @epicsugarplumx @SeaOfThieves Because the people who make models can fix bugs
