    @HubtakuGaming @Wermux @SeaOfThieves That’s the kind of thinking that makes me think this dude. This isn’t a joke - maybe it’s something caused by your time in service?

    @SeaOfThieves Please fix the Sword hit reg. Player swords pass straight through blocks, making the sword partly useless. Also there's an insane amount of double gunners running two guns.with mad hit regs, never missing a single shot. Please lock the sword as one of the weapons you must have.

    @beeeeee39722115 @SeaOfThieves They cant fix the fact that most players are opting for one side over another more. You cant fix something that is entirely in the hands of players.

    @Slappy202TV @SeaOfThieves Alright let’s suppose they remove the feature to alliance while hourglass is up. Nothing will stop 2 ships of the same faction from teaming up on you, so the problem is not alliances.

    @jamesmiller @SeaOfThieves Everyone dragging James is wrong. Your need to force people to fight you is your problem not his. Rare's decision to make their players into content and to encourage this community's reaction to people who want PVE while never acknowledging the divide as an issue is disingenuous.

    @SeaOfThieves Ugly sweaters for a ugly broken, buggy game. All I see is fix this fix that in comments. Listen to your community.

    @SeaOfThieves PLEASE FIX ALL THE GAME-BREAKING GLITCHES AND BUGS!😭 Also, change the fact that people can join in the arena. People are exploiting it and teaming on ships.

    @Wermux @SeaOfThieves Jesus his is the issue with the PvP in the game ATM you know what...... If they would fix a one hit killing blunder buss hit markers I would actually be arsed to play .... You shouldn't get 1 hit killed.

    @SeaOfThieves @RareLtd #SeaOfThieves #BeMorePirate Please fix the glitch in which you cant Offer your soul to the Ferryman, especially when I am solo slooping in these battles. Please fix players being able to grab the ladder from inside of the sloop through the window.

    @beeeeee39722115 @SeaOfThieves Thats a different issue entirely, and im sure its getting fixed.

    @Slappy202TV @RangaRogers @SeaOfThieves What would they do to fix it though? Remove the ability to alliance when the hour glass is up obviously, but that really wouldn’t do much since they don’t have to put the flag up to alliance in the first place

    @Justmy2cents11 @SeaOfThieves True because sea of ​​thieves is notorious for mentioning every single bug outside of the patch notes. Maybe you've noticed it already but apart from server and no gold/xp error sea of ​​thieves says nothing and is still working on fixing bugs

  • RLasn2

    @SeaOfThieves Can yall fix the bug where cannon makes a shooting noise but it doesnt shoot and a bug where bucket takes like 3 seconds at the start to bail the water out off the boat

    @SeaOfThieves my game has been giving me the lavenderbeard error for 3 days now. I looked it up and it said it's an error for when you guys are doing maintenance. Are you done or is my game just bugged?

  • HChrisPablo
    Pablo Foncerrada (@HChrisPablo) reported

    @UninspiredP @jamesmiller @SeaOfThieves I didn’t say that You can mainly do PvE if you want, but the game is still designed as a PvPvE sandbox, meaning other players CAN be a threat. If you don’t like that, then yes, stop supporting a game you don’t even like and save yourself the trouble.

    @udonengineering @Wermux @SeaOfThieves If you can't see the issue of organized server alliances who spike servers like mushrooms and abuse the alliance mechanic to inflict defeats and streak losses to the players who matchmake with them, something is wrong with your moral values.

    @SeaOfThieves love your game but can you freaking fix it. I should be able to queue up for the new ship battle and not have to worry about other ships interfering with a 1v1, also your game constantly freezes for several seconds every 20 secs as soon as I come in contact anyone!

    @waumpers @SeaOfThieves Keep crying tho I'm sure rare will "fix" it. The way they coddle the kids who think they're playing a hardcore pvp game, no cave in is surprising anymore lol

    @Cap1ainChris @SeaOfThieves I would rather they bring new things. But that would be too hard for them since they seem to have issues with making new sets for twitch drops.

    @SeaOfThieves Please fix the lag and black screen issues while in battle. Many of us are about to call it quits. Please get some Server Stability

  • Stockboi2
    Stockboi (@Stockboi2) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Cool idea. Bad execution. System is definitely broken. Shouldn’t be able to go into a pvp battle against 3 ships in an alliance. Why does that make any sense. Spend the 20-30 minutes grinding for supplies to get **** on in 45 seconds. Makes me enjoy the game less and less…

    @GroovyCrowley @jamesmiller @SeaOfThieves It's not a pvp game lol. There is no hit scan, there have been known hitreg issues since the very beginning that can't be fixed, and it hasn't had MMR since its inception until season 8. And the MMR only affects pvp Vs. pvp gameplay. Does nothing for PVE crews.

    @SeaOfThieves Don't get me wrong, it's a nice update, but it's seriously overrated in my opinion. There's some serious issues with the new PvP system.
