  @SeaOfThieves With the sunken pearl tall tale, I have encountered a bug where the chest of eternal sorrow not stops disappearing completely after I try swim through the water with it to where I need to be with it, please fix this as I have done the tall tale 7 times and not been able to 100%.

  I was really hoping they fixed the bug today because I wanna play but I don't want to risk wasting my time so I'm forced to wait. I hear others out there with the same problem. Someone suggested to not use ship cosmetics so I'll try that at. I love the game still #seaofthieves

  @SeaOfThieves Your “maintenance” made the game halfway unplayable. FIX THE LAG.

  @Guardian_69_ @DrsgonPlays @SeaOfThieves The developers are aware of technical problems which in certain cases (when there is a scene with some decorations in particular) can create slowdowns. Coupled with 28fps it must be "horrible" to play, especially that at 60fps it is bad enough. No more to add

  @Kastrick @SeaOfThieves This is not a new bug, and it's listed as a known issue on the patch notes. I had it the other day and it's annoying but they're aware.

  @GamingCentric @SeaOfThieves This was for us just doing a normal voyage. Hasn’t happened nearly as bad as that in at least a year or so. We logged out and in to fix ours.

  @SeaOfThieves Keep getting disconnected on Xbox. Error code Hazelnutbeard. Found a new love in the game again and can't even stay on the servers, please help.

  @ChesronKocsis @Xbox @SeaOfThieves I heard something about it not working if someone on the server has already done it, mine was broken as well.

  @SeaOfThieves Hey @RareLtd guess what, the sunken pearl tall tail is still broken me and @kh4rn4k couldn’t even resume the third chapter where we left off

  bro please fix the ship glitch😩😩 @SeaOfThieves

• 
  Kristian Balmforth (@Kastrick) reported 25 minutes ago

  @SeaOfThieves Whatever you’ve done you’ve introduced a new glitch. Can’t get back on ship. Keep falling through. Scuttled. Mermaid, and died. Nothing fixes it so now all progression on that voyage is lost. 👍

  @SeaOfThieves Did you guys fix the sniper problem, when I aim in it takes almost 5 seconds sometimes for the sniper to actually zoom in

• 
  DanDarko93 (@DanDarko93) reported 30 minutes ago

  @SeaOfThieves Can you fix the rest of the Sunken Pearl tale please. I have to go back and get the other commendations but as I am a solo player it's impossible with the glithes like the chest of everlasting sorrow randomly falling through the floor or disappearing when passing a water barrier

  @SeaOfThieves hey wanna explain why the hotfix not only brought back the old inventory/clothes/emotes glitch but made me permanently unable to equip weapons?

  @Sherl0ckSparr0w @SeaOfThieves I’m really enjoying them so far but I’ve been crashing constantly. Couldn’t even stay in game to do the third one last night. Hopefully the update fixed stability issues. Either that or it’s my Xbox one dying on me 🙃

  @SeaOfThieves No fix for the ridiculous amount of screen tearing on SeriesX?

• 
  Gaming Centric (@GamingCentric) reported 43 minutes ago

  @stoddzmusic @SeaOfThieves Sniper scope bug occurred due to the animation not playing correctly after putting your gun down when it was meant to reload, and was indeed fixed in this hot fix and is in the patch notes.

  ❤ Desaia desu ❤ (@DesaiaZ) reported 48 minutes ago

  @SeaOfThieves Just scuttle and go to another server if some idiots gank you the moment you spawn or when you in a tall tale. These nolifers can only have fun by sinking newbies and tall-talers with NOTHING on board. I think these people have serious issues. Don't give those trolls anything.

  Hey @SeaOfThieves remove sirens from arena, they ruin the point of the pvp aspect and they can also crash the servers

• 
  Sea Legs Sally (@SeaLegsSally) reported 52 minutes ago

  @SeaOfThieves You really need to fix the Ship collision bug. FYI it is not limited to starting Tall Tales. I just raised emissary before doing an ashen vault and this happened. Now my vault key is useless.

  @JoeNeate1 @SeaOfThieves @SoT_Support I have a problem with the game since the latest patch. My pirate is unable to swim underwater. I have reloaded the game. And even switched from console to laptop but the problem persists. Any idea how to fix it?
