    @SeaOfThieves The 2nd Tall Tale of The Pirates Life is STILL BROKEN.... FIX IT. PLEASE.

  • Focus88746331 MeloveMeME (@Focus88746331) reported

  • GlennHunterLusk Glenn Hunter Lusk (@GlennHunterLusk) reported

    The reason you need to fix it is because you created this environment. The saltiest of the sea dogs have been living in your game and have been trained through gameplay never to work together. All the fun they get out of the game is sabotage and greifing. #SeaOfThieves

  • SCTMetal SquatchCloakTech (@SCTMetal) reported

    @harleybrownlie @Jrams307 @SeaOfThieves They do have the right to complain. Time is a commodity . If you put time into something and that thing gets destroyed, anyone has the right to be upset. The issue is there are toxic peeps out there being asses that give other pvpers a bad rep.

  • harleybrownlie TheClownPrinceOfGames (@harleybrownlie) reported

    @SCTMetal @Jrams307 @SeaOfThieves But they shouldn't complain when sunk or out played , that's the issue

  • GCedrman GracefulCedrman (@GCedrman) reported

    @noob76052507 @queen_darkri @SeaOfThieves The problem isn't skeelies, the problem is skellies, phantoms, and Ocean Crawlers, which in a combination, makes it so I can't even spend 30 seconds on an island without being attacked

  • nichola48256704 nicholas (@nichola48256704) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Fix your ******* pve

  • sean_2601 sean_2601 (@sean_2601) reported

    @gator34kag2 @wicetown @SeaOfThieves Have you played their most recent update. It’s huge and amazing. It’s the most fun I’ve had on SOT in a while. Also the devs do fix things. Also when they add the content most people moan for they go ahead and moan about them adding it. Like when are people going to give emabreak

  • Sylvester_Routh Aaron Routh (@Sylvester_Routh) reported

    @harleybrownlie @Jrams307 @SeaOfThieves You're as free to do that as Rare is to make events counter to that. I see no problems here.

  • Graybeardsftw12 ItsRedMark (@Graybeardsftw12) reported

    @harleybrownlie @SeaOfThieves Because a lot of the time players can be quite toxic, I've come to accept that it's PVP/PVE, so I don't have a problem with being sunk and if they ever chose to do a PVE mode I agree that it should be an especially challenging mode, but I'd be lying if I said there weren't dozens

  • _v7z12 v7z12 (@_v7z12) reported

    @CaptOvercast @MrFawlout @SeaOfThieves aaaaaaa shouldve been broken bottles of ***! ahahaha perfect shot definitely gonna win imp

  • KingofControve1 King of Controversy (@KingofControve1) reported

    @87Tiffylou @SeaOfThieves @SoT_Support I assume you just mean the storage crates, I looked through the patch notes and saw no mention of them doing that and this happened almost a week before the patch so it cant be that. I also sold some yesterday from a fleet voyage and got gold for it, probably forgot to fix them

  • RealLifeWookie Beardageddon (@RealLifeWookie) reported

    @PirateLegendSOT @SeaOfThieves I've worked in the service and retail industry most of my life, i can tell you without a shadow of a doubt that that statement is fundamentally wrong on every level

  • SumWhoCalMeTim SumWhoCallMeTim (@SumWhoCalMeTim) reported

    @SeaOfThieves server just ate 4 gilded Athena voyages between me and a crewmate. Put it down, voted, then it disappeared once it had enough votes to start. No error messages, just straight up deleted the voyage without starting.

  • gator34kag2 gator34kag pt.2 (@gator34kag2) reported

    @sean_2601 @wicetown @SeaOfThieves “Respect the devs” THEY DONT FIX **** LMAOOOO

  • HockeySniping Cody AKA Hockey Sniping (@HockeySniping) reported

    @stovokorix @SeaOfThieves I’ve been getting some unusual error codes too! Really sucks.

  • Jorddd96_ Jorddd96 (@Jorddd96_) reported

    @SeaOfThieves FIX UR **** IVE DONE THIS SAME MISSION LIKE 6 TIMES WTF EVERYTIME WE CANT COMPLETE IT COS OF A BUG

  • luckyace Thrumwald #BlackLives Matter #vaccinated (@luckyace) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Seemed like a lot of lag in the game after this patch. All of the people I played with today eventually experienced lag. Maybe the servers were having a rough time today?

  • Evan60143465 Evan (@Evan60143465) reported

    @SeaOfThieves hi there, lately I have been having a bug during the Pirates of the Caribbean telltale were you light the lantern and ghost are supposed to spawn and lower a bridge down but the ghost are not spawning so I can't get through, please fix this, I have tried 4 times

  • bostian_zach Zach Bostian (@bostian_zach) reported

    @Mynuku @SeaOfThieves This update still didn't fix it?

  • Temperistic Nick (@Temperistic) reported

    @knarfuu @SeaOfThieves I couldn’t get to that part. Once I fix the sails and bring them down the game doesn’t let me move so I can grab the wheel which is my next task. Pressing B is supposed to disengage the player from the rope of the sail but it doesn’t forcing me to quit the build

  • TheZyroxx Zyrox (@TheZyroxx) reported

    @SeaOfThieves (that was when it came out) we booted up our game and we played 20 min crash we looked for a solution and gound nothing after a week Now we wanted it to try again We reinstalled windows and went program for program and found nothing that could have caused the crash 2/3

  • JamesSa02176672 Captain Thunder Crash (@JamesSa02176672) reported

    @SeaOfThieves If we're talking Sea of Thieves animals it would be a Wrecker and a Storm fish because when I crash, I crash like Thunder in a storm! I would have that on my sails and I would choose a mighty sky eagle and lightning dragon to feature on my hull.

  • Rezniketoo Reznik (@Rezniketoo) reported

    @noob76052507 @SeaOfThieves @RareLtd It doesn't impact me because I have a LG CX, with VRR enabled, so no tearing, but all my friends who have good panel (Sony or Samsung OLED) but no VRR suffer from this issue, and it's severe, tha's too bad because it ruins a gorgeous game

  • Detrimend Duus (@Detrimend) reported

    @GavinTrowbridge @OGfrightz @SeaOfThieves I agree, those things are fun for the first 10 hours and then you discover the fact that naval battles and PVP is infinitely more fun because the hand to hand combat and shooting in this game is broken, repetetive and boring. You are one of the few people who enjoy riddles lol

  • mrstevenbiggs Boogieman Biggs🦓 (@mrstevenbiggs) reported

    Hey @SeaOfThieves y'all need to fix y'all's servers I keep teleporting back and getting killed this is bullshit.

  • Doptical1 Doptical (@Doptical1) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Fix your PvE. And also fix your aim botting skeletons

  • GameOfAnt 🐜 (@GameOfAnt) reported

    Delaying start until 11:30 today.. I have my contractor coming to fix things before we show the house this morning 11:30 @SeaOfThieves with @fergenht & @RealKyleMasters kicks things off

  • Ch33seWeasel Ch33seWeasel (@Ch33seWeasel) reported

    @JoeDifford @SeaOfThieves @SoT_Support Yeah this has been a problem for a while now, I've been having it for at least a week before they dropped a pirate's life. Seems like they have bigger fish to fry atm, but this does feel like this is a simple fix.

  • SpaceSinner SpaceSinner (@SpaceSinner) reported

    @SeaOfThieves are the servers down for anyone else?
