  • Omakaru_Zumee Omakaru_Zumee (@Omakaru_Zumee) reported

    @SoT_Support @SeaOfThieves Not saying there's nothing wrong with that, the servers should be a little better suited to big loads of data during these times if that is the issue. But maybe not wait for the same time that literally everyone else will be turning in loot to do the same?

  • NathsAPirate Nath BA (@NathsAPirate) reported

    @BrandonASWard @SeaOfThieves @The_Whaw It's an absolutely fantastic game with LOADS to do... ... Providing Mr Wilshere isn't radiating as much bad luck as 666 broken mirrors

  • masterpj55 PJ/Laserstroopwaffle (@masterpj55) reported

    @SeaOfThieves cant connect to your service.. it just gives me a prompt the servers are unavailable.

  • xDevilishEggs DevilishEggs (@xDevilishEggs) reported

    @CGallerine @SeaOfThieves HA you see same exact issues, LOL

  • manshoon03 Manshoon03 (@manshoon03) reported

    @SoT_Support @SeaOfThieves This seems to happen every release/Gold and Glory Weekend. How do you expect us to trust you with season rewards when you this problem keeps popping its head up?

  • RyanCrumbz champions of england (@RyanCrumbz) reported

    @tayfun58161445 @SeaOfThieves Nevermind its broken again go nuts

  • Omakaru_Zumee Omakaru_Zumee (@Omakaru_Zumee) reported

    @SoT_Support @SeaOfThieves I see everyone complaining about their crew doing 4 gilded athenas and having so much loot they wouldn't have to go looting again if they didn't want to. I wonder if it's a server strain issue.

  • shadowskulls19 James Campbell (@shadowskulls19) reported

    @SeaOfThieves I just sold a lot of stuff in your game. But it didn't give me the money for selling it. First time av ran into this problem. Any way this can be rectified and I can get my in game money. That's about 2 hours worth of looting and vaults seems like it was for nothing

  • Demon5379 Demon (@Demon5379) reported

    @SeaOfThieves So we going to have problems again or nah?

  • GawdSmokez Benedict Mank (@GawdSmokez) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Gold & Glory Weekend? Where? We just sold all of our chests and again we got no gold! I thought the problem was solved?! I'm pissed!

  • jstocka1 Jarod Stockard (@jstocka1) reported

    @SeaOfThieves turned in a Reapers Bounty and 3 flags got zero gold for it. Having an issue again?

  • freshavocadoTV freshavocado (@freshavocadoTV) reported

    @SeaOfThieves No, he's probably more annoyed that you held another Gold and Glory without fixing the massive issues from the other one two weeks ago. Can't wait for my second round of sympathy gold and doubloons. 😐

  • BlownBoats BlownBoats 🇦🇺 (@BlownBoats) reported

    @Pithen_ @SeaOfThieves Lol I still can’t start an arena game, get some graybeard error

  • ActivistGamer SeaOfBeards (@ActivistGamer) reported

    @SoT_Support @SeaOfThieves Man...what is the issue with this?

  • CharllTTV Charll (@CharllTTV) reported

    @SeaOfThieves somethings broken again. been doing merchant for the past 3/4 hours and in the past 20 mins gold + xp has stopped counting up. Shame really as i was nearing 75.

  • RotLovely Orange Smarties (@RotLovely) reported

    @TobiYukihoshi @SeaOfThieves @RareLtd Bro, just shut up. You stream sniped while streaming and we're toxic af... that is against SoT code of conduct and against twitch tos... Both your twitch account and SOT account should be perma banned.. You are the problem!

  • EL_PEPEillo PEPEillo (@EL_PEPEillo) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Hi. They can help, buy @SeaOfThieves with game pass and #Microsoft cancels it, by ERROR. There is no way to get my pass back despite having been paid since 2018.

  • BrettDickey8 Brett Dickey (@BrettDickey8) reported

    @SeaOfThieves I never lost any progress so idk i hit 75 in most things no issues and i spent around 24 hours or more during those 3 days

  • RodrigoRashh Rodrigo Lopes (@RodrigoRashh) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Go to hell. It took you 2 weeks not to solve the problem of the winnings of this event, lost the data and came saying that you will reward the players with a value that you earn in the game in 2 hours? You are incompetent.

  • tayfun58161445 tayfun (@tayfun58161445) reported

    @ladymagritte @SeaOfThieves yeah but if people are maxed out that will not help for them. They should not even do the double weekend if they know it's gonna glitch again...

  • JohnnyActual TheActualJohnny (@JohnnyActual) reported

    @SeaOfThieves I'm not getting rep or gold right now? I'm on an alliance server and no one is getting anything. Please fix?

  • alteregorevi Agatsuma, Rea (@alteregorevi) reported

    @SeaOfThieves why the gold does'nt add to my account after sell items at NPC? pls fix it

  • boogyghost10188 Mazen (@boogyghost10188) reported

    @SmashCrashr @SeaOfThieves Why would you blame SoT for that? That’s your problem, not theirs.

  • seeingsafety apocalypse waiting room (@seeingsafety) reported

    @Klohverr @SeaOfThieves i mean first of all i can play the game however i want, even if i was bad at pvp secondly, pvp is not the issue, we sank them 3 times and killed them several times more. the FotD boss glitched in a damned wall and couldn’t take dmg. they stole the key from us bc of a bug

  • LongClip6 LC (@LongClip6) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Once again another few hours of Athena quests and rep down the drain because you guys cant seem to fix the issue of when I turn things in and giving me exp. This game is pathetic.

  • WaTsNoTgUdD WaTs (@WaTsNoTgUdD) reported

    @SoT_Support @SeaOfThieves Ok if you guys cant fix this within 72 hours then I'd recommend allowing us to purchase another gilded that way I can have 2 gilded athenas

  • ItsPrentissYall Prentiss (@ItsPrentissYall) reported

    Emissary flags still aren’t rising after you sink a ship. Things are floating. Hit reg. There’s so many bugs. Comms not counting. Please @SeaOfThieves @Gamerboss @JoeNeate1 DO NOT RELEASE THE NEXT UPDATE, delay it for a month and fix the game first.

  • Shona1337 Shona (@Shona1337) reported

    @SeaOfThieves And again the same issue as last time, not Money and Reputation.....
