    @SeaOfThieves What was good: - The challenges, firework display, decorations. What was really bad for me: - We barely found players doing the voyages. If we found one after server hopping for hours, it was always a swabbie, because the decent players already finished their 3 voyages in ~30 mins. I think the challenges should be the main sources of doubloons, not the limited voyages on an already time limited event. A swabbie might get all 3 of them stolen and then that's it, only the minority of the playerbase are determined enough to search for people for hours, this part of the event is just not fun.. I don't have a problem with pvp, but just punching down on bad players isn't it.

    @Toast205 @LordofCh8os @SeaOfThieves Reportedly DDoS (Distributed Denial of Service) attacks. Isn't the first time it's been seen either.. Both Peanut situations specifically have been within a hour.

    @SeaOfThieves acknowledge the even worse hourglass exploit where people can get 100’s of streaks in a short time allowing anyone to cheese the 1k curses in a single day it’s so broken!!!

    @TippToppHansiI @SeaOfThieves @theburntpeanut Yeah i've played 4-5 days now. 2 of those days i was booted offline. One of those days it happened 20 times. Not sure how anyone defends this. And bad connections effect solo players even more because they have a razor thin margin of error to begin with.

    @SeaOfThieves If youre having trouble making up your mind and its causing this much discourse, why even reset doubloons in the first place!!! we want to keep our doubloons!!

    @BananaStove @SlothyBearr @SeaOfThieves The problem is that making the sword more available WASNT what we wanted. I wanted MORE than FIVE items to commemorate our time. I just didn't want the rewards to stop at 4k doubloons. Am I too greedy asking for, like, doubloon boots? Gimme some Doubloots for 10k or sumn, idk.

  • Treefittytwo
    24 player servers? (@Treefittytwo) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Fix the bugs and exploits. Make harpoon gun not useable to board ships. Put HG on their own servers not on adventure mode. Delete the devils roar.

  • DayKahDos
    DK2️⃣ (@DayKahDos) reported

    @KingHotdogPig @SeaOfThieves The problem with the voyage cap isn’t even the 3 per pirate - it’s the fact you can only complete 3 before it gives gold instead of doubloons. Apologies if this is what you meant - but I figured that we were gonna be able to do at least 12 (3x4 on gally) but couldn’t obviously

    @SeaOfThieves The problem isn't necessarily the 50k sword, it's how cheap the other bits are, most people I suspect will buy everything but the sword, so there's no "Flex" to any other items apart from the sword, make them 10, 20, 30, 40 & 50k each then EVERYTHING is decent.

    @SeaOfThieves Can you fix the hackers in hourglass or that disregarded while people get banned for actual **** all

  • Game7DS
    Game 7DS (@Game7DS) reported

    @Nathanonfire2 @SeaOfThieves It wouldn't fix the problem indefinitely but it would help a lot... with how often the game crashes you shouldn't have to worry about your name getting leaked on the main menu... Trying to do something is better then nothing.

    @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.

    @SeaOfThieves Unplayable due to the constant lag spikes every 30 seconds or so. I heard it’s because of the fireworks at the outposts?

    @2old4stream @SeaOfThieves I wish one day they could give me an opportunity to give my feedback on the game. I know what are the most important issue (some of tweaks , some nerfs and maybe some rework) U know me well,Truth can hurt & i don't get the dev vision but my veteran feedback can be helpfull

    Sot is actually a rotting burning dumpster fire. Support and devs can’t ban or catch real cheaters and ban legit players and tell the community they are taking care of the cheating problem #seaofthieves #bemorepirate #rare

    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

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

    @SeaOfThieves We’re at a garrison and had one wave spawn but the next wave hasn’t spawned so we can’t move on 💀 Damn, looking at the other reported issues with this, this is a bad event release.
