    @SeaOfThieves fix your game fellas servers are dying

    Travis Touchdown (@Gholdyi) reported

    @2old4stream @SeaOfThieves worst part is you are getting hated by the community as soon as you mention issues about what rare is doing, you have no right to be a more competent person at spotting evident gameplay design problems than them. now we are stuck with rare listening to the wrong people

    @RareLtd @SeaOfThieves CAN YOU FIX THE GOD DAMN BLACK SCREENS IN THE ROCKS ON MOLTEN SANDS FORTRESS PLASE?!

  • NorthernLawYT
    NorthernLaw (@NorthernLawYT) reported

    @HitboTC @SeaOfThieves Growing pains? Game is almost a decade old. If they don’t improve the issues that have plagued the game from day one like bad servers and hit registration then the game will die. Not to mention they should listen to the community, wasn’t that the whole point of opening insiders?

    @SeaOfThieves A Sword will not fix your game. Sorry not sorry

  • neillunn85
    genuscustos (@neillunn85) reported

    @SeaOfThieves I actually think the sword pricing is fair for people who play every day and have completed every season. The rest actually seems cheap. The only issue is people with 50k will have the ferrymen set so won't be using the sword anyway

  • SirNyros
    Nyros (@SirNyros) reported

    Please I beg you, PLEASE FIX this Cannon De-Synch happening right now. Cannons are completely out of Control especially in Hourglass when both Masts are down. 50/50 that your cannons actually land where you shoot them. @SeaOfThieves @SoT_Support #SeaOfThieves

  • Coppertailwolf
    Copper (@Coppertailwolf) reported

    @SlothyBearr @SeaOfThieves The black and white is signal enough. I can’t believe that made it to a more prominent side of hourglass. I imagine that’s wildly triggering to a lot of people with any form of inner ear issue or sensitivity. Like who wants one long high pitch tone in your ear for 5 mins. Even if you don’t have sensory issues absolutely no one likes that haha

  • RedBarronUSA
    The Red Barron of America (@RedBarronUSA) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Lots of glitches and problems

  • Shayxis
    Shayxis (@Shayxis) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Disconnect from your actual player base as usual. Stop listening to streamers and players who spend their lives on the game. I barely had 8,000 doubloons before spending them all a month before the announcement of the reset.

    @SeaOfThieves The deed for act one for damaging someone with a cannonball in a faction battle is not working, I’ve damaged people multiple times and even killed someone with one, any chance we can get this addressed when possible? Thank you!

  • Lotus_Koril
    Master (@Lotus_Koril) reported

    @poetniknowit @SeaOfThieves I know that it wont. Ive been sitting 42 kegs for a long time, even before smugglers. The problem is when you finish all the crates, but still need 50+ kegs. Getting a single keg has a chance of 4% per bottle. But hey Drew said theyre working on the fix now, lets hope its good.

  • CptEasty

    Hey @SeaOfThieves , i would like to know what you can do about our hourglass glitch, im playing with my son and friends, about to get him his first 4 streak in HG when we spawn into a match about 100m in the sky with our boat flying a mile away from us, unable to move streak lost

    @SeaOfThieves Trying not to get DDOS when streaming

  • TJerikko
    Jerikko (@TJerikko) reported

    @HitboTC @SeaOfThieves I used to play City of Heroes. They introduced player created content. It was fun for about 3 months. And it will be fun to see what, you and other streamers come up with in these servers. The issues will start when the rest of us want into the private server(s) to play in your world. Servers limit ships to 6, is this the same for Private (rhetorical)? I like the idea, but fear that they (the devs) are currently throwing things at the wall to see what sticks.

  • OwnerJMDesigns

    @SeaOfThieves are there issues with being able to log-in on PS5 to your servers to be able to play the game ?

  • ThrowAcc25
    George Floyd's Inhaler (@ThrowAcc25) reported

    @SeaOfThieves can you fix the bug on Skeleton Forts whete the lord glitches into the floor and when they're defeated to vault door key doesn't spawn. Your game has to many bugs and glitches, it makes it so unenjoyable.

    @KennyCain13384 @SeaOfThieves They never fix exploits, the just kick the ball down the road. That video they put out earlier pissed me off. Such a stupid ******* dev team.

    @romanticidexx @SeaOfThieves I have gigabit internet, so my internet isn't bad. And I'm not referring to rubberbanding. I'm referring to issues that literally affect ALL 4 PEOPLE ON A GALLEON, that a server hop typically fixes. Unfortunately, buggy servers is an almost 'every session' issue

  • d3monWo1f

    @SeaOfThieves @theburntpeanut tried playing your game again. 2nd opportunity to gain players and same fn issues. Do you even care anymore?

    @wizardberry2822 @Zairin__ @SeaOfThieves Same, & I'm running on HOTSPOT ROUTERS IN THE MIDDLE OF THE WOODS!!! We don't have the cables dug for access to highspeed internet, so if ANYONE should be lagging & having major issues with bugs, it's me LOL (It would cost around $10k USD just to dig & install cables for access).

    Hilarious watching @theburntpeanut play @SeaOfThieves showcasing the bullshit players have been dealing with for YEARS on the big screen. Fix your damn game @RareLtd Coming from a year 1 player. Glad I uninstalled.

    @MrJannusSoT @Mephisto_hub @SeaOfThieves I did this on purpose it's not edited. I wanted the guards to look like they are glitch and can move faster than time itself. Everything was done in game.
