    @smarioplayer200 @Box0Fighter @SeaOfThieves Fix your aim

  • ChirpGiga Felix Chirps (@ChirpGiga) reported

    @DMaxor1991 @RareLtd @SeaOfThieves i love it so damn much. it has its flaws still with the broken harpoon bug but all you need to do to fix it is slap it with your sword. so i can NOT complain

  • MajinLuckz Titania Luckz☘️ (@MajinLuckz) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Fix your game

  • Im_Kerrry ImKerry (@Im_Kerrry) reported

    @Hitbotc @SeaOfThieves I think that kind of ammo does get spammed too much but I don't think capping how many you can carry on you is the best solution to this issue. Perhaps decrease the spawn rate of them or increase the load times into cannons? why do all projectiles need to have the same load time?

  • 1fangs fang (@1fangs) reported

    @SeaOfThieves @SoT_Support fix your servers your matchmaking is god awful, im getting games where players/crewmates don't speak a word of english

  • MrWalkboi Walkboi (@MrWalkboi) reported

    Having an issue where I open Xbox Game Bar overlay and then upon tabbing back into SoT, I can only use my keyboard. My cursor doesn't focus back into SoT. Only solution I found after several attempts was restarting the game. Am I stupid? 🤔 #SeaOfThieves

  • DevonSchreiner Devon Schreiner 🍻 (@DevonSchreiner) reported

    Reinstalling @SeaOfThieves right now as a last resort to fix some lag issues. Only started as of Sunday. Anyone else seeing issues or just me?

  • MinkRoyal RoyalMink (@MinkRoyal) reported

    @Swattskyz @SeaOfThieves Yea the servers are out their mind at the moment... If your friend already has a stable internet connection there is nothing he can do about it. Rare has to fix it or upgrade their servers

  • marcokortekaas marco kortekaas (@marcokortekaas) reported

    @SeaOfThieves @Hitbotc Hi there, im having trouble to connect to the servers, i even have firewall turned off, but keep getting lavenderbeard error..

  • TranceRevolved Marcella (@TranceRevolved) reported

    @1Chenzo @SeaOfThieves When one crew repeatedly goes after just one crew ignoring the others in close proximity and don't care at all about the loot, just camping the crew nonstop, that isn't toxic? I have no problem with pvp but couple that with the foul language from said camping sweats is ******.

  • HeartagramGirl Tasha St. Pierre (@HeartagramGirl) reported

    @SoT_Support Just to let you guys know, we have been having a horrible game experience tonight. We have been unexpectedly kicked off the server numerous times and have experienced issues getting back in. #SeaOfThieves

  • Tenisagamer Skyrite (@Tenisagamer) reported

    I'm so glad I get to celebrate the end of the pirate legend weekend by losing a 500k loot haul to a disconnect while nobody in my house was using the internet #seaofthieves #sot

  • VaderMonkeyGam1 VaderMonkey Gaming (@VaderMonkeyGam1) reported

    No stream tonight due to back & pelvis injury. Service will hopefully resume this Thursday. @SeaOfThieves is less physically demanding than sim racing.

  • tayuisnotokay tay (@tayuisnotokay) reported
