  • TreyJ_98 Captain Trey (@TreyJ_98) reported

    @Capt_Vicarious @SeaOfThieves Considering the perks and low cost of entry to captaincy I don't think paying to save your cosmetics is unreasonable lmao. If you can't afford a few thousand good to pay for your cosmetics I do not know what to tell you. Thay said it's literally a bug and they're gonna fix it

  • RealChaotic1 TheRealChaotic1 (@RealChaotic1) reported

    Trying to get into @SeaOfThieves but stuck on "Searching the seas" with no end in sight. No beard errors, no crashes. Happening on both my PC and Xbox Series X, as well as on my son's account. @SoT_Support #SeaofThieves

  • haolegirl080817 Haolegirl_080817 (@haolegirl080817) reported

    @Bromatica @SeaOfThieves I think they’re trying to fix it to auto update. But for now you can just equip them into the log. It says it’s a known issue on their support site.

  • cypheravirax Slick (@cypheravirax) reported

    @ArcalenithSoT @SeaOfThieves no ice region yet so no problem

  • EhSimRacing Eh+ SimRacing 🍁 (@EhSimRacing) reported

    @SeaOfThieves I spent the 40k gold to save my ship cosmetics, but every time I launch my sloop it has 1 less cosmetic loaded. Today it only loaded 2 of the saved settings! Why did I pay 40k gold if I still have to manually set my customizations? Please fix this.

  • Mistermatt91 MisterMatt91 (@Mistermatt91) reported

    Hit reg and lagging have been horrendous tonight. Sniper shot followed up by 4 sword swipes just to get one shot in the face? Really? #SeaOfThieves

  • ChristiansSays1 Christian Says FB and Twt Algorithms Suck! (@ChristiansSays1) reported

    @SeaOfThieves @RareLtd What a lovely new glitch. I'm having to pay again to save ship stuff to my Sloop. #SeaOfThieves

  • general_keys General Keys (@general_keys) reported

    @Lukitch59 @SeaOfThieves Whats the problem with "GAYS"?

  • lcrn4k люцерна (@lcrn4k) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Hello, Rare! I'd like to notify you that sometimes saved (for a big money🤬 BTW) cosmetics on the captains ship is just gone and I have to pay again for it🙄 Could you please solve this problem somehow? Thanks, bros🤙 P.S. I wrote it from my wife's acc, lol

  • NicholasRWhitl2 Solaire ☀️ (@NicholasRWhitl2) reported

    @SeaOfThieves is there a problem with the mermaid palace loot? I’ve gone to two dens to send the loot up to the ship and it’s just completely despawned or didn’t even show up.

  • JDM29365145 JD M (@JDM29365145) reported

    @CptShadd @SeaOfThieves I feel like this would help fix the boarding meta as well, as people would be much more hesitant to leave their ship knowing that if they sink it’s gone

  • Zeppy494 beer cleric (@Zeppy494) reported

    @De_Vice @Hitbotc @SeaOfThieves yeah, you harpoon the keg and then immediately have a second person shoot the harpoon to force it to disconnect. The keg will maintain it's velocity and fly through the air, exploding if it hits a ship

  • DrDinglePhD Bajookieland’s Mightiest Defender (@DrDinglePhD) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Hey rare, my ship’s name has been erased. She was called “the Bajookaneer”. I equipped a new ships crest and now I don’t see our ships name anywhere. The crest is blank and the ships log just says ‘milestones’ where the name used to be. Is this a censorship issue? @SeaOfThieves

  • Elyanech Nayelch (@Elyanech) reported

    @Kuragesan87 @SeaOfThieves I have 0 problems with that being mainly a solo slooper.

  • NievieParkinson Nieve (@NievieParkinson) reported

    Has anyone else had the game lagging all day and saved customisations wiped from their ships so had to pay for them again? @SeaOfThieves @SoT_Support

  • PeterFo93696650 Peter Forsberg (@PeterFo93696650) reported

    @SeaOfThieves How can I file a report with issues to you guys? you have nothing on your website and when I "@" you on twitter, I dont get a response

  • OCESENPAI 👴🏿 (@OCESENPAI) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Can you fix the rendering on Xbox one pls it’s soooo bad can’t see anything in the menu’s or anything

  • Sam_Ericson16 Sentanel16 (@Sam_Ericson16) reported

    @AlactarGaming @ItsSobeTv @SeaOfThieves And while that is a problem it doesn't directly affect a lot of people. Beyond that you can't "fix" it with alliance changes or similar. You'd have to have forced merges (ie ignore player positions etc) at random intervals for all ships. Which i doubt we see

  • ThumperBoyAD 🇺🇸ThumperBoyAD🇺🇸 (@ThumperBoyAD) reported

    @bobo00727573 @SeaOfThieves True. First time I had one I had no idea what was going on till I got to the doctor and they asked for a urine sample. First thing to come out was two stones the size of a pea. I was like, well there's my problem LOL

  • josh90443864 josh (@josh90443864) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Would naming my ship “The Broken Slave” get me banned ?

  • KraxeeyTTV Kraxeey (@KraxeeyTTV) reported

    @SeaOfThieves please fix your merchant so I can actually grab my storage crates etc

  • LasseFlick Lasse Flick (@LasseFlick) reported

    @Elyanech @SeaOfThieves Looks cozy! Also 'fix' the hull? What's broken?

  • realgooner2019 Ali.B (@realgooner2019) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Everytime I start the game and sign in I have a problem with my equipment wheel. It doesn't appear. I must close the game for 3 or 4 times. I don't know what's the problem. It's a real pain in the ***. @SeaOfThieves

  • Gazduke1 Grazzar (@Gazduke1) reported

    @BlackLotus729 @JamesRobson05 @SeaOfThieves It still requires active participation to do it rather than auto claiming, that was the issue people raised before.

  • CryoTek2496 Bryce🐉 (@CryoTek2496) reported

    @SeaOfThieves would you be so kind and fix the lag in your servers? I can’t buy anything, I’m lagging so much is teleporting me to a different spot, items in any of the shops won’t load plz and thanks🤍

  • RnKrt_ ReVo (@RnKrt_) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Almost every time i login to my ship it has another hull or sail or something else. not what i saved. so i have to pay to rearrange it. what is that shi....

  • AlactarGaming Alactar (@AlactarGaming) reported

    @ItsSobeTv @SeaOfThieves problem is people grinding on servers you cant join the "safe grinding" i think that is a problem

  • TheYammyOfc Yammy (@TheYammyOfc) reported

    @Oxtii_ @hardway_jones @SeaOfThieves What if Statement? What if I'm a fairy princess? Nothing wrong with having issue with people attacking others then surely?

  • BucketeerBill Bucketeer Bill (@BucketeerBill) reported

    Ah yes, ban the guy with ' large deck energy' as ship name, but the 'glory hull'and skelly captain 'quick dicken' is no problem. literally the same type of pun. ( i'm not the one banned, this situation is just a mess ) @SeaOfThieves #SeaOfThieves

  • SurrikaTunnah Surrika Tunnah (@SurrikaTunnah) reported

    @Ac3Nigthmare @HLariash @SeaOfThieves The issue, is a lot of people before the update have already done huge amounts of fishing, if someone has the "Legendary Hunter of the Sea of Thieves" title. Those trophies should already be unlocked for them cause that grind was real, now they are being asked to do it again.
