    @TheBostonRacket @SwampyBoogBoy @SeaOfThieves If you don’t want to see “Negative Nancy” I think you’re on the wrong platform. Clearly it’s not the entirety of the gaming industry problem, but sure is a big factor. Also how dare you assume me to be a sir!!!

    @SeaOfThieves game crashes ever few hours, ghosts/skellies/crawlers all spawn together ever 5mins on an island, the tall tails barely work, cannons are broken and shoot people the wrong way, black screens are becoming permanent, swords have substantially more hit reg. Great game.

    @SeaOfThieves I just lost 2 and a half hours of progress on this mission due to a damn pully system not working, thanks

    @SeaOfThieves My experience so far with the new POTC update has been awful. From non instanced sessions other people interfering with what you're trying to do to server crashes and game glitches. It's really hard to do the new Tall Tales with these types of problems.

    @CanYouPetTheDog @SeaOfThieves So why in the tales where you are UNDER WATER THE ENTIRE TALE, can you drown during the mission, or loot just isn't there. These quests are glitched. Fix it

    @AndrewTCollier @SeaOfThieves @SeaOfThieves This glitch was happening with the blunderbuss as well as the pistol, trying to aim down the sights and shooting would glitch for a few seconds and then I could shoot. Please fix.

    @topshot246 @CanYouPetTheDog @SeaOfThieves We had ridiculous issues in chapter 2 I couldn’t see the kraken at all had no idea what to hit! Others had wall glitches switches that locked members out who had to reboot such a shame… it looks a great addition but this is ruining the adventure

    @SeaOfThieves fix ur game. The new update is unplayable due to glitches and errors. Wasted 6 hours of my life just to have the game break and not be able to finish

    @SeaOfThieves Its impossible to clear the sunken pearl with all the crews glitching it for you! Fix thix garbage

    James (@llllll_james) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Can you fix the spawn rate of the phantoms and the ocean crawlers, every island I go to they pop out of the ground and kill me instantly, they're also spawning in vaults for me as well which makes it impossible for me to complete it, decrease the health or something 👍

  • Penlock_Penguin
    Penlock Holmes 🌺Vtuber & Mr. Penguin (@Penlock_Penguin) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Okay. I already went past the second tale by myself with a glitch that I can’t get out of room until I do a server hop and figure out how to unglitch certain parts so I can do it with my crew. Still glitch and bug that we couldn’t get past the final door of the siren room 1/2

    @RareLtd you really need to think about @SeaOfThieves server switching feature. Not the first time that we got caught by surprise with a ship just by our side when servers switch. Not to mention PotC collab bugs... Please, fix the game <3

  • achilles_x1
    ACHILLES X1 (@achilles_x1) reported

    @CanYouPetTheDog @SeaOfThieves THE 2ND POTC TALL TALE IS BUGGED!! That top door in the first cave section is always glitched. Even if you start over the water is still there... and almost always there's another crew... stuck at the door just waiting. So broken.

    @SeaOfThieves Can you fix the black pearl quest

  • douardpaul

    @SeaOfThieves is it solved ? we are still stuck in this tale because there is a part broken inside the mermaid den with the statues puzzle and the rising water...

    @InsomniNerd @OhLncas @SeaOfThieves You must live in a pretty lonely part of the world, then. I mean, look around, you must be the only person who did not have any problems with The Sunken Pearl Tall Tale.

    @SeaOfThieves I've been playing Sea of Thieves for about a week now and I cant play for an hour without a game breaking glitch happening so I cant play anymore, I'm constantly going through the ship and taking damage from it, deleted the game not a good experience at all. Fix your game please.
