Sea of Thieves Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Andrew Sharp (@sharpywesley) reported@SeaOfThieves What an absolute shambles this once great and noble game has become. And to the people in the comments saying “never mind, take your time” - demand more than this continuously piss poor service.
-
Chaveiro (@chaveiro1234) reported@OzurianArt @SeaOfThieves Yet another live service ******* it up, seems like a permanent trend
-
Sean Kelley (@threedaysawsome) reported@BocaG @Christi19879853 @SeaOfThieves It would literally hurt no one to make safer seas the full experience or just having private severs. They say its PvP game but the PvP aspect is whats the problem. Outside of janky hit boxes, there's no natural progress in skill when it comes to PVP. Thr gap is huge.
-
B0NA (@xB0NAx) reported@CptStepFalcon @Lukitch59 @SeaOfThieves Devs can say whatever they want but practically Insider is just a beta test and not the definive version of the game. They don't know what it can be broken by adding/changing some things.
-
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
-
Artist of Thieves (@ArtistofThieves) reported@fraudatori @Dambitt_ @SeaOfThieves Sure the game has many problems, im not disagreeing on that regard. But just because another game has a pirate theme, doesnt mean it can replace sot gameplaywise. These other games just arent for me, as they cant replace what i like on sot.

shaun john (@shaunjo57082499) reported@SeaOfThieves @MSCasualGames Your discord allows accounts with no mobile verification to join. Means someone can make a fresh untraceable account and do exactly what bruno did. Fix it fast.
-
Kittenspreee (@kittenspreee) reported@SeaOfThieves Hopefully if the supply issue drops, which impedes competitive creation, we get the option to at least “add captaincy” supplies we can just spam to stock boats.
-
Dave+ (@xMLG_Drizzy) reported@SeaOfThieves Dead game Dev team covers up a member who is a **** preying on children. Discord server guilty as well. Ignoring their disgusting issues. Good riddance
-
AboutSelphy (@AboutSelphy) reported@KingHotdogPig @SeaOfThieves @RareLtd I barely play 1 day a week now down from 4. The game is great, but the studio’s actions are unacceptable. Protecting a predator, ignoring red flags, and silencing creators who spoke up is a horrific look for Rare. A corporate PR statement won't fix this. We need real answers. (i hope they will do something besides "We missed the mark)"
-
Fledder (@CalebFerraro) reported@betta_rdr2 @SeaOfThieves What in the broken physic slop is this?
-
arditobn (@Giovann69642526) reported@KingHotdogPig @RareLtd @SeaOfThieves Changing your profile picture and adding Star Citizen as a replacement game for Sot, hahaha. No one said Sot's conditions are great; in fact, S20 and up should have zero errors. But it doesn't do you credit to behave like this.
-
Scomex (@scomex_) reported@SeaOfThieves Player that has played since day 1 here,✋ Horrible experience. Hopped back to test the event and new doubloon system. Doubloons not coming through, servers lagging like hell on last ship standing (ships flying, long waiting time...) Please, I love the game, fix something🙏
-
OphieIRL (@OphieIRL) reported@CrustySockPuppy @SeaOfThieves This is a reasonable response. My perspective is that the issue of player safety has been talked about over and over again using the framework they provided both in the ticket system and in the partner discord. Nothing changed, it was ignored.
-
Twitch 8cells (@kbeeznuts) reported@SeaOfThieves @SoT_Support @SoTCommunity I died after fighting the gallion came back sailed there and it was glitched players spinning ships merged then i get 2 network errors and i get suspened make a ticket next day perma banned

almtychcknpoo (@AlmtyChcknPoo) reported@KingHotdogPig @SeaOfThieves No, you are right. None of us should be asking partners to stand down. I am allowed to choose whose content I want to support as a result. The problem is that these things have been going on for years at this point. It could have been prevented if Rare stepped in and stopped CM a long time ago. Rare is 100% accountable for who they have representing their game. CM are representatives. I ain't gonna force anyone to step down or take a stand, but if it appears that someone is trying to leverage a charity stream to boost their numbers and appear as a good person, for a charity that doesn't actively help OUR victims, I'm unfollowing them. If they are the least bit fake, I'm unfollowing. That's my choice and no ones gonna miss me around...so the decision is most likely mutual anyways. I absolutely do want to see a bigger push though and nothing is going to change without it. Hell, some streamers haven't mentioned it but they have been streaming other games lately...silently protesting already despite making a statement. Kudos to them.

I Go Rogue (@I_Go_Rogue) reported@Blockeeeee @OzurianArt @SeaOfThieves Who do people like you always jump to a pseudo defense for a company? Who cares how much of this is performative? It's hes also exposing something then hes doing the right work. Being mad at him and not the issue at large... its weird dude.
-
girlfromthecave (@girlfromthecave) reported@mempavrai @SeaOfThieves im a she and i never got ddos'ed.
-
Cpt Tifosi (@WazzaC92) reported@CaptMcGuffin @SoT_Support @SeaOfThieves And its not really "individual". There is going to be a lot of people in the same boat who's bought everything because of this. It is a community problem with a larger effect on this content down the line that people probably dont realise currently
-
Touch of Oblivion 🐀 (@TouchOfOblivion) reported@KBoldZiel @SeaOfThieves What a shocker, SoT released yet another THIRD OF A SEASON AFTER DELAYS and it's broken. Can't protect their community, can't code their game, can't do anything but dump more things into Emporium. This game used to be so much better.
-
Blue Field Above (@BlueFieldAbove) reported@SeaOfThieves @RareLtd Your problem wasn't the game. Your problem is you try to appeal to the whiniest of the player base who felt entitled to gold they hadn't stolen fairly. Now, ffs, I'll forgive it all if you spawn a Shrouded for me. 8k hours guys, like damn, I'm dying here.
-
GasMaskMan (@GasMaskMan88) reported@RareLtd @SeaOfThieves #Playstation5 #PS5 Your last update completely deleted my years of progress. Everything I owned and all my faction levels have been deleted. On top of that I am forced to re-sign in to my Microsoft account every single time I get on. Why bother playing now?
-
Hans (@HansWalter113) reported@SeaOfThieves Server down? I cant join the Sea! 🙄
-
Hoodydotexe (@_Hoodydotexe_) reported@SeaOfThieves Stop pushing the problems away Rare, you guys are making it so much worse for urself
-
MasterMind (@Master_Mind_97) reported@SeaOfThieves @xStefina fix the game please , lag spikes are insane after the update
-
Your local sigma pirate (@Sigma_SoT) reported@kalyaSot @SeaOfThieves Guess you have reading problems...
-
Smokes-N-Games (@Volerop) reported@FROTTOLEE @SeaOfThieves They should start by removing the one thing that connects silly pirate game to the real world. The pride bullshit. That is the catalyst for some of the most sick and vile people to flock towards SoT. The usual culprits are the flag pushers. They are a massive part of the problem, that very small, very vocal clique of players whom should not be trusted blindly in positions of power.
-
🍩 No Direction Dusty Donut 🍩 (@DUSTYDONUTSSS) reported@SeaOfThieves can we actually fix our game before we implement new systems? Here I am trying to pvp and get better at pvp and I'm... 1.) Glitching though my boat? 2.) Grabbing the latter when I interact with anything in my ship that requires interaction? 3.) all of the above? 3.
-
Baytash (@BishoyMilad) reported@SeaOfThieves I understand that you want to go for the grinding mechanic but the problem lies in there's nothing to grind if there's no alternate way of earning a suitable amount of doubloons after completing the deeds of the weekender, there has to be another way to earn doubloons.

Bumblebee Tuna Studio (@BumbleStudio) reported@Bellingham_5x @SeaOfThieves I turned my crossplay settings on and it seems to fix it for me
