-
Jerikko (@TJerikko) reported@HitboTC @SeaOfThieves I used to play City of Heroes. They introduced player created content. It was fun for about 3 months. And it will be fun to see what, you and other streamers come up with in these servers. The issues will start when the rest of us want into the private server(s) to play in your world. Servers limit ships to 6, is this the same for Private (rhetorical)? I like the idea, but fear that they (the devs) are currently throwing things at the wall to see what sticks.

Beardageddon (@RealLifeWookie) reported@fraudatori @SeaOfThieves By increasing the number of people who have to login to be on the ledger.
-
Milkman (@themilkk_man) reportedSot is actually a rotting burning dumpster fire. Support and devs can’t ban or catch real cheaters and ban legit players and tell the community they are taking care of the cheating problem #seaofthieves #bemorepirate #rare

MixelPlx (@MixelPlx) reportedThroughout the years of Sea of Thieves, there has been so many attempts of exceptionally large creators that want to check it out with friends, just to be met by cheaters, or the most annoying behavior till they are forced to get off. This kind of **** has been going on for well over 3-4 years, as someone whose been hit personally by auto hopper, spamming of 100's of invites, targeted server ddos, dozens of times at this point. You learn to deal with it. Nothing you can do. Its annoying, and if someones determined, they will get you eventually. Now I'm no professional in advertising, but I feel like I got a good idea of how it works. When big or small creators, paid or not, are putting forth an opportunity to really set in motion some fresh eyes for your game, its best to start plugging some of these vulnerabilities so they can continue to play, or at least feel the need to. That's good business. So I mean with all sincerity, but what ******** is going on at HQ in which **** like this continues to happen? ITS BEEN YEARS OF THIS SAME BULLSHIT. You can have your own personal look on TheBurntPeanut, but when one of the biggest advertisers/creators, averaging 80-100k live viewers across 2 platforms, is constantly getting hit. What do you think that shows viewers, interested, in maybe checking out Sea of Thieves for the first time. First impressions are everything, and this **** ain't looking too good. #SeaOfThieves

Aaron THFC/MTFC (@SpursTHB) reported@SeaOfThieves can you stop the glitching under the map glitch ive had 3 of them today
-
Jumperovsky (@Jumper92PL) reported@SoT_Support @SeaOfThieves I have written a detailed ticket that I can't send sadly. Actually would prefer to not write my issues on X and have them solved here as many community players can't get enough spotlight on themselfs most of the time here and be treated properly.
-
Game 7DS (@Game7DS) reported@Nathanonfire2 @SeaOfThieves It wouldn't fix the problem indefinitely but it would help a lot... with how often the game crashes you shouldn't have to worry about your name getting leaked on the main menu... Trying to do something is better then nothing.
-
Kenny Cain (@KennyCain13384) reported@SeaOfThieves acknowledge the even worse hourglass exploit where people can get 100’s of streaks in a short time allowing anyone to cheese the 1k curses in a single day it’s so broken!!!
-
Cora (@romanticidexx) reported@wizardberry2822 @Zairin__ @SeaOfThieves Same, & I'm running on HOTSPOT ROUTERS IN THE MIDDLE OF THE WOODS!!! We don't have the cables dug for access to highspeed internet, so if ANYONE should be lagging & having major issues with bugs, it's me LOL (It would cost around $10k USD just to dig & install cables for access).
-
SNAF (@SNAF_ftw) reportedpeanut can play CS2 with no issues... cant play @SeaOfThieves @SoT_Support with out an issue. Yall MISSED THE MARK per drew.
-
Artist of Thieves (@ArtistofThieves) reported@surivSHANKS @ITZH4ZARD @SeaOfThieves The problem is not the orange association box, its the purple confirmed cheater box. No idea how they got that information though.
-
Xyllius (@Xyllius) reported@WazzaC92 @SoT_Support @SeaOfThieves Was it bad this glitch happend in the first place? Yes. But no one was stopping you from doing said voyages anyways. As they stated, those coins would've been added to your wallet.
-
Vivo (@Vivoronte) reported@SeaOfThieves I also spied my eye on a little Peanut getting server DDOS'd with his friends and roughly 70k viewers..... Going to acknowledge the issue at hand? no? hmm ok... I used to Love and breath this game. It's truly sad and seems so far gone.
-
Nyros (@SirNyros) reportedPlease I beg you, PLEASE FIX this Cannon De-Synch happening right now. Cannons are completely out of Control especially in Hourglass when both Masts are down. 50/50 that your cannons actually land where you shoot them. @SeaOfThieves @SoT_Support #SeaOfThieves
-
Amy (@molnaramy00) reported@SeaOfThieves What was good: - The challenges, firework display, decorations. What was really bad for me: - We barely found players doing the voyages. If we found one after server hopping for hours, it was always a swabbie, because the decent players already finished their 3 voyages in ~30 mins. I think the challenges should be the main sources of doubloons, not the limited voyages on an already time limited event. A swabbie might get all 3 of them stolen and then that's it, only the minority of the playerbase are determined enough to search for people for hours, this part of the event is just not fun.. I don't have a problem with pvp, but just punching down on bad players isn't it.

Bryan Knapp (@Knapper18) reported@SeaOfThieves Lone Cove in the cave by the broken rowie
-
THESPYHUNTER (@Hunterkillerst2) reported@LazyLakePaul @SeaOfThieves Imma warn you, a few streamers who’ve played SoT recently kept getting DDOS
-
Jim Binky (@Jimbinky) reported@Common_Potatos @SeaOfThieves That's why they started it early this time. It's gonna take longer cuz there's less interest. Should honestly just lower the requirements, but I guess this is one way to fix it.
-
DK2️⃣ (@DayKahDos) reported@KingHotdogPig @SeaOfThieves The problem with the voyage cap isn’t even the 3 per pirate - it’s the fact you can only complete 3 before it gives gold instead of doubloons. Apologies if this is what you meant - but I figured that we were gonna be able to do at least 12 (3x4 on gally) but couldn’t obviously
-
Andre (@AndreMacca22) reported@SeaOfThieves @RareLtd @Rare Adding to this its sad to see a game that was in my life since i was 15 fall so far as it has, why cant you fix bugs,remove the acts system and add more permant content instead of taking it away like molten sands, that was incredibly fun cause it used the trading companies
-
Venom (@VenomousSloth7) reported@SeaOfThieves Great actually. I have been playing other games and havent plyed since January. I keep checking but continue to see the devs are just as incompetent as always! To those playing, your complaints are being heard but they dont care and it will continue to be a broken mess
-
Xyllius (@Xyllius) reported@WazzaC92 @SoT_Support @SeaOfThieves Other players have to put time and effort into multiple event weekends, while many players used this bug/glitch to buy everything right away, so these players (apparently including you) DID take advantage of that.
-
leonchameleon (@daxingtontf) reported@imabookwyrm @GreedoGaming @SeaOfThieves ok but this game has a blatant cheating problem in the main avenue for PvP
-
Seth (@smald81) reported@SeaOfThieves @BigKlevin Would have been great to see peanut 🥜 play but too bad you guys couldn’t prevent a DDos attack would have been huge for the community just guessing angry people with flags in their bios!
-
Bloodfox (@Bloodfox24) reported@SeaOfThieves Did this fix the Unstable connection errors on ps5?
-
Notcaringmuch (@notcaringmuch) reported@squidkiller8781 @Dambitt_ @SeaOfThieves well look, cheaters aren't really a big problem now. There were less of them than the actual number of bugs. They made them "grind" to be able to play Hourglass, so most risks their main profile in the process or completely given up on playing with those. (Yes on PC)
-
Venom (@VenomousSloth7) reported@SeaOfThieves Is Custom Seas gonna make regular server feel even more dead? Are hackers gonna be able to access it and crash it so that larger streamers cant even play it? Is it gonna be a buggy mess like the game is? 🤔
-
BehavingBeardly (@BehavingBeardly) reported@knglover @SeaOfThieves This is what they want to fix! Player engagement/random encounters is KING in SoT
-
Captain Doubloon (@DoubloonCaptain) reported@Game7DS @SeaOfThieves Applying for partner would be so amazing. It’s unfortunate to see this disconnect block me from it. Hoping this is addressed!
