  • garreth_husky TheDgamesD (@garreth_husky) reported

    @EMcX87 @SeaOfThieves Actually i did before i lost all enjoyment from PVP in the game years ago. I have everything from the GSD set, and every single TSD item aside from the Hull. My issue is not with the items or content behind PVP commendations, but the locking of faction interaction into PVP only

  • insanitysanty insanitysanty 🇺🇾 ♿ (@insanitysanty) reported

    @SeaOfThieves server lag again GG

  • JaaayyyyR JaayR (@JaaayyyyR) reported

    @RedHarlock @SeaOfThieves I see no problem with it aslong as it does not take priority over cosmetics you can get by playing the game but I’d gladly taking pieces over outfits any day of the week

  • SmithyBug Bug Smith (@SmithyBug) reported

    @Treefittytwo @SeaOfThieves Im simply warning you so you dont get yellow bearded... or red bearded if you do it for long enough, but i do also let others know that its bannable to get the word out. The more people who know its bannable, the more chance you will get in trouble for it, so, just dont do it!

  • JamesOuroboros James Ouroboros #BLM (@JamesOuroboros) reported

    @garreth_husky @Irid0n @SeaOfThieves Man you're really talking a lot but saying very little This game has always been designed with PvP in mind. Them adding more PvP stuff is 100% in line with the design of this game, and is not at all a problem with the game. It is a problem with your mindset.

  • Rowan_slinky Rowan (@Rowan_slinky) reported

    @AlexL0519 @SeaOfThieves I ask because usually games have an eta on when servers will be back up what's your problem

  • illogicalJJ ill.og.gamer (@illogicalJJ) reported

    @SoT_Support how long are the servers down for during the update? #SeaOfThieves

  • ToejahMM ToejahM (@ToejahMM) reported

    They're adding a mode that stops people running in @SeaOfThieves.. but is "hit reg" still a "known issue"?

  • MrJoeSterne Joe Sterne ☕️☁️ (@MrJoeSterne) reported

    @FortniteGame is absolutely gorgeous on that screen. @SeaOfThieves works great, even launched from the MS launcher and not @Steam. It’s so weird. I’m probably a couple years away from Cooper wanting a machine and I’m worried I may not be able to fix stuff like this

  • Because_Musk BYE BYE BYE (@Because_Musk) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Will this fix the weapons death lag.....

  • SmithyBug Bug Smith (@SmithyBug) reported

    @tkseeker96 @Jacobstarves @SeaOfThieves Then i guess you probably wouldnt have a problem either way.

  • tuuliman Tuuliman (@tuuliman) reported

    @ColourMeFun @SeaOfThieves Athena! Not actively asking for trouble, but there's precious cargo in the hold, so it's good kind of stressful.

  • Luck465666 HorrorPleb (@Luck465666) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Feels strange not seeing a self entitled SoT player not complain about how they spent hours grinding loot to suddenly disconnect due to server maintenance

  • percyjourno R W Percy (@percyjourno) reported

    @Bold_MK @SeaOfThieves My big issue with PvP is currently in it's state there is Full Freedom of Choice but also total Freedom from Consequence for the most part. Especially with portal hopping still being in the game as of last time I checked.

  • swift_tst swift (@swift_tst) reported

    @SeaOfThieves are the servers down?

  • MattLepers Matthieu (@MattLepers) reported

    Marblebeard error just before gold rush, thx @SeaOfThieves, we stacked for nothing...

  • Treefittytwo 6 ships? (@Treefittytwo) reported

    @SmithyBug @SeaOfThieves There are alot of exploits out there the rare has fixed that the partners used openly on their streams. And there are more that hopefully will be patched out soon. I used to learn these exploits by watching until I realized the errors of my ways.

  • KaptainKat2 Kitten King (@KaptainKat2) reported

    @SoT_Support is there a fix coming for the issue of not being able to harpoon items out of other pirate's hands? #SeaOfThieves

  • RaginCajun928 RaginCajun928 (@RaginCajun928) reported

    @SeaOfThieves This is nice but can we get a complete weapon rebalance; like blunders that can’t knockback and do 1 hit KOs, or broken blunder bombs that take no skill with their unreasonable damage output, knockback potential, ability to load them in cannons and hold multiple of?

  • LuigiGamingLp Luigi GamingLp (@LuigiGamingLp) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Idea, should the PVP lobby become an issue because of waiting times, give ppl the option to take a turn into the mermaids trench. There you just learn about the Lore of the mermaids, supply up and do a bit of jump and run.

  • ze1ium zelium (@ze1ium) reported

    @Treefittytwo @SeaOfThieves they did not fix hitreg 💀💀💀

  • scamiam00 M (@scamiam00) reported

    @SeaOfThieves It’s me. Hi. I’m the problem. It’s me.

  • HobeJoshua Joshua Hobé (@HobeJoshua) reported

    @SeaOfThieves The link is not working for me

  • SmithyBug Bug Smith (@SmithyBug) reported

    @Treefittytwo @SeaOfThieves Ah yes! exploits... even though rare doesnt fix it or have their partners stop... Ignorance isnt an excuse buddy

  • CapnJPGIsHere Captain JPG (@CapnJPGIsHere) reported

    @Zyx_XBL @hardway_jones @SeaOfThieves No. The battle pass is free and it's your fault if you miss the rewards! It's not Rare's problem that you didn't spend time to level up. Maybe if you bought the plunderpass then maybe you should still be able to unlock the exclusive rewards to that plunderpass

  • SprintyDice 🤴🏾KingZ👻 (@SprintyDice) reported

    @SeaOfThieves soooooo.....can we talk about how you rebuilding golden into a pirate port, but the stairs to the taverns upstairs is still broken? Not in the budget? 🤔

  • CorgiCraft Bisect Pupper 🔜 MFF/ANW (@CorgiCraft) reported

    @Falcon59875668 @SeaOfThieves the problem is they were tunneling us even tho we had nothing for them to take, no loot nothing. we legit had just spawned in

  • xboxmoonknight xboxmoonknight 🇨🇦 (@xboxmoonknight) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Ship seems to be lagging when I launched this morning. stuttering with the waves and is bit jarring. Will try again later today.

  • yeehawlezbian Chyenne Wheeler (@yeehawlezbian) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Are y’all thinking of doing a character creation at some point? My pirate is ugly and I wanna fix it so bad 💀

  • Cubed_Slime bass pro shop the 🦔 (@Cubed_Slime) reported

    @SeaOfThieves It's me hi, I'm the problem it's me
