  • HeyDaddyPanda AmazingPandx (@HeyDaddyPanda) reported

    @SeaOfThieves @RareLtd #seaofthieves please fix arena mode chest beam is bugged and the mermaids are taking forever to show up causing me and my crew to sink.

  • 1Chenzo Chenzo (@1Chenzo) reported

    @Demon6880 @SeaOfThieves That’s always been true but it’s gonna suck when someone goes to fix a hole and there’s no planks. lol.

  • Randyman1029 yaboi (@Randyman1029) reported

    @SeaOfThieves all our loot we were stacking just despawned off our ship, others are having this issue, what gives

  • Capt_Morte 𝕮𝖆𝖕𝖙_𝕸𝖔𝖗𝖙𝖊 (@Capt_Morte) reported

    New @SeaOfThieves content looks lit. Season 5 is on the horizon. But I have to ask. Is there gonna be any solid bug fixes and stability issues squashed? And how about hitreg and desync? It's no easy task but I don't think I am alone in saying optimize optimize optimize. Cheers!

  • Redlambs2 Redlambs (@Redlambs2) reported

    @Demon6880 @1Chenzo @SeaOfThieves True. But then again, isn't it a but unfair that the sloop gets the same amount of ladders and the brig and the gally? Unbalancing is a problem, and it keeps fresh meat from playing the game.

  • ItsSimonBtw Simon (@ItsSimonBtw) reported

    @SeaOfThieves But did you fix hitreg?

  • Ghurab49 Raven (@Ghurab49) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Fix hit reg

  • travelguypaul 🇬🇧 in 🇰🇪 (@travelguypaul) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Hey salty sea dogs - can someone help me and my partner - we both have our own game passes and logins. I downloaded SoT on my series x and my pc. If I login to her account t on my xbox or my pc and then log in to my account on the other device it doesn't let us play the same time

  • Melissa8121 Melissa (@Melissa8121) reported

    @travelguypaul @SeaOfThieves you sign in on whichever device you want to play on. my husband signs into his pc and i sign in to xbox. he doesn't use the steam version. then we can invite each other

  • miningsimgod miningsimgod (@miningsimgod) reported

    @SeaOfThieves hey the ship bug is still in the game fix it

  • 1Chenzo Chenzo (@1Chenzo) reported

    @JamesJubane @SeaOfThieves You can just use their storage crates… don’t even need to bring one on board. Lol. Sneak on board, grab a crate, remove planks, jump overboard. Just the removal of planks will be death to most crews cause you can't fix holes without planks.

  • ShadowW65101157 ShadowWolf (@ShadowW65101157) reported

    @ForzaHorizon @SeaOfThieves @ForzaHorizon would be great on pc if the game didn't crash to desktop with an error code 0xc0000005. And when you go to get help from support they tell you just to go to microsoft cause it's not an "in-game" issue.

  • DarionFireChief Darion Smith (@DarionFireChief) reported

    @SeaOfThieves YOU NEED TO FIX THE RED ZONE! Chased a Guy for 30mins for a ton of loot just for him to SINK in the OUTBOUNDS AREA WITH IT ALL!!!!!!

  • Mirikfrog Mirikfrog (@Mirikfrog) reported

    @reverendgaddy @OrnatLePirate @SeaOfThieves That's the problem. There is so much content for casual players, but this game is a pie with no filling. The dedicated players are told to go **** themselves while the casual player is catered to, which is fine, but don't expect longevity from the veterans.

  • XSinisterScythe Scythe (@XSinisterScythe) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Can you please fix the goddamn lag in this game. No other game has given me or my friends this much lag and it is honestly annoying as hell

  • Mirror_Instinct Mirror_Instinct (@Mirror_Instinct) reported

    @AlexL0519 @SeaOfThieves That's the problem, I do lol I've tried to slow down though because I just end up spoiling myself on what's to come and then be even more disappointed

  • tytyadams1655 tyler adams (@tytyadams1655) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Can u still get the battle pass skins when it’s season 5 bs if u can’t and games got to fix tht bc thts their own money they spent to get those but can’t bc they work

  • TheFlest Preston Ferreira (@TheFlest) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Lagging just me?

  • shadyrogue_ ShadyRogue (@shadyrogue_) reported

    Is anyone else having troubles signing in to @Xbox when trying to sign on to @SeaOfThieves? I’ve been having slight issues for a little while now, but today was the worst encounter. #SeaOfThieves #Xbox

  • ScaryJerry_TTV Scary Jerry Gaming (@ScaryJerry_TTV) reported

    @SeaOfThieves @RareLtd are the Aussie insider servers having an issue? I’ve been getting lavender beard errors last 2 days

  • 1Chenzo Chenzo (@1Chenzo) reported

    @Redlambs2 @Demon6880 @SeaOfThieves I never thought the number of ladders was an issue? Also, ‘fresh meat’? Sweat much?

  • HaughomInge Krösa-Maja (@HaughomInge) reported

    @TylaGratton @SeaOfThieves Got 3 thousand hours in this game and only encountered cheaters twice. I would estimate that 80 percent of my ingame time is pvp related. Cheating is not an issue in SOT, get better and stop complaining.

  • AssassinMike15 Michael Saunders (@AssassinMike15) reported

    @Senpai_Qtpai @SeaOfThieves No problem

  • WolfSaintX Wolf Saint X (@WolfSaintX) reported

    @SeaOfThieves There is a problem. Me and my friends have grinded out the feast of bounty Preperation challenges and we completed it, but it isn’t giving us the cosmetics or makeup. But we all got the notification that we unlocked it. Is there a way it can be fixed?

  • argenys Argenys (@argenys) reported

    @lewdle2 @Lo_Files @SeaOfThieves as an FYI its 6 ships, was reduced to 5 for a while due to server issues, back to 6 for a while now.

  • CaptShowtime Captain Showtime 🔜 TrotCon (@CaptShowtime) reported

    @BoiBitty @SeaOfThieves Lol well when you do sneak attack with a keg you can sink with no cannonballs :p or sneak onto their ship while they're away and crash it somewhere else xD

  • Redlambs2 Redlambs (@Redlambs2) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Any chance of full PC key custom? Any chance of hitreg being solved? No, just more cosmetics? I'm sure the content creators are foaming at the mouth of cannon rowies, but moan when they get empty servers as most can't be f'd with the same old bugs and issues. Just a thought.

  • Sekkosakk Hodd (@Sekkosakk) reported

    @TheCollerroller @Ericww34 @SeaOfThieves Simple bug fixes and QOL implementations probably doesn't take super long, but it all depends on what it is. It also takes away time from working on actual content updates that you are screaming for. I guess you would rather have content completely soaked in bugs and issues.

  • Demon6880 Demon (@Demon6880) reported

    @1Chenzo @SeaOfThieves Don’t let someone get on your ship. Problem solved
