  • GarethKerrigan Gareth Kerrigan (@GarethKerrigan) reported

    Haven't played @SeaOfThieves for months because of how buggy the game was decided to jump back on for the new story adventure for it to glitch out and not allow us to complete it. Such a fantastic experience. 🤮

  • Tamed_Delirium Tamed Delirium (@Tamed_Delirium) reported

    @SmokeBeardTV @nuglatron @SeaOfThieves I don’t have trouble with that one on sloop at all

    @SeaOfThieves This content was garbo literally hyped this all up for 10 mins of content. Do better and fix the damn game so when im being sunk my buddy doesnt log in and steal all the wood by accident

  • ScrollsFallout ActuallyEric (@ScrollsFallout) reported

    @nuglatron @SeaOfThieves Just give me an option to disable the feature on ships. I've found that on a sloop, holes in the back of the ship are often covered up by a Sit prompt and you need to reposition to fix your boat!

    @deufff_ @SeaOfThieves IMO, the pve stuff is just what you do when there is no fighting. All the events, tales and even the voyages are all designed to make ships group and cause trouble. There’s still 2 weeks to complete this, shouldn’t be that hard.

  • TinnyOnWii364 Tinny (@TinnyOnWii364) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Fix your broken game.

    @SeaOfThieves Anyone else having issues on shipwreck bay the with the captain getting bugged and disappearing for the event?

  • _Sinmael_ Sinmael (@_Sinmael_) reported

    @Evaneileous @StevieGND @SeaOfThieves 1000MB Internet wasn't supposed to have that trouble.

  • FavourFNC Favour (@FavourFNC) reported

    @SeaOfThieves How long are the servers down?

    @xMacaruni @theShrillMarmot @SeaOfThieves Is that a problem?

  • SimolinKasper Kasper Simolin (@SimolinKasper) reported

    @eva_erotic @JerseyDee22 @SeaOfThieves That sounds like your issue, not Rare's. The decision was made, stop bitching about it so much. I liked arena alot, but if its gone, its gone. Ill remember the times i had in the arena and look forward to new content. Either do the same or leave.

  • CannonMunkii 🐒💨CannonMunkii💥 (@CannonMunkii) reported

    I know why it's being considered but I really hope they can fix the current gun system in SoT rather than go hitscan. I enjoy calculating my long shots plus I think it's fairly unique in games to have actual projectiles. Not many do thatwhen it comes to firearms. #SeaOfThieves

    @SeaOfThieves YOU'RE NOT FUNNY, NOW FIX HITREG.

  • crab_pets 🦀 Petition for Pet ***** in Sea of Thieves 🦀 (@crab_pets) reported

    Day 164 of my crusade to see pet ***** added into #SeaOfThieves! Received word that next patch will fix hitreg but lock all players into "crab mode," meaning only side-to-side movement is allowed.

  • HollowQuill Hollow Quill (@HollowQuill) reported

    Hey @SeaOfThieves I was just in a game and I was running back and forth to get all my loot to the gold hoarder and I got disconnected for "(Lazybeard)" even though I was moving the whole time. This isn't the first time. Any way I can fix this?

  • OldMateClown OldMateClown (@OldMateClown) reported

    @Lorsal7 @SeaOfThieves I'm talking about the achievements that go with Xbox, not the locked in game commendations themselves. Though it would be nice if they weren't timegated as well. I hate the FOMO approach with live service games.

  • Xx_ELDUAC_xX Legend of the Sea of Thieves (@Xx_ELDUAC_xX) reported

    @InkyGhosts @TLBSN @SeaOfThieves You have 2 weeks. If you weren't a part of that how is it their or my problem?? Are you in a hurricane or some ****?? I'm a day 1 player and I missed plenty due to not playing but im not gonna cry about it. It doesn't make sense for cannon (no pun intended) to have it forever

  • BoiBitty Bitty Boi (@BoiBitty) reported

    @bldarkness @SeaOfThieves I just don't get the issue with time limited achievements

  • TheDaveCalaz Dave 🐝 (@TheDaveCalaz) reported

    @Hitbotc @SeaOfThieves Is there an emoji for "Mine was broken"?

  • Pepper_5s Pepper Fyves | VTweeter | Comms Open (@Pepper_5s) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Hello, I've noticed a bit of a glitch as far as Keyboard players go and have encountered this issue twice. When dropping the rowboat from a ship without sitting at the oars first causes the boat to glitch and shake so that it cannot be sat in or used. Please fix. 🙏

  • 1Chenzo Chenzo (@1Chenzo) reported

    @420J69 @MinkRoyal @SeaOfThieves It’s why we help “scrubs” when we encounter them. Or at least don’t sink them. That’s the solution to this kind of problem. But, the seas aren’t safe. Coddling new players won’t help them.

  • Pogiforce Pogiforce (@Pogiforce) reported

    @Hidden3lite @frankcasillas50 @SeaOfThieves making a light joke about it is as the very least admitting it existed and that they were aware of it. there are a lot of devs who don't even acknowledge their games ever have problems. And they did give some specifics for how they will address it in the future.
