Blue Field Above (@BlueFieldAbove) reported@SeaOfThieves You reset my doubloons. I am struggling to find out why you think that means I would want to return to the game? Can anybody on the dev team explain that to me? Why would I slog through your broken matchmaking system and buggy servers just to earn what I had, back?
-
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.

Jack Meadows (@OwnerJMDesigns) reported@SeaOfThieves are there issues with being able to log-in on PS5 to your servers to be able to play the game ?

Mikey 🛝 (@Griinjah) reportedThe stream didn’t even last an hour… How did we not learn from Jynxzi, @RareLtd? Events like this make me sad to even admit how many hours I’ve put into SoT. Are you going to fix this issue four years later like HG, or actually do something NOW? Fix the damn game. #SeaOfThieves

gabriel becher (@rom4nov1) reported@SeaOfThieves Fix the Harpune glitch it’s so annoying
-
Xyllius (@Xyllius) reported@WazzaC92 @SoT_Support @SeaOfThieves Was it bad this glitch happend in the first place? Yes. But no one was stopping you from doing said voyages anyways. As they stated, those coins would've been added to your wallet.

EthCorsair (@Eth_Corsair) reportedThe sea has a way of turning simple plans into long nights. It started plain enough. Just the two of us on a sloop, sails trimmed and pockets empty, heading out with the simple thought of running a few garrisons and seeing what fortune the night might offer. The water was calm, the sort of calm that usually means trouble is waiting somewhere ahead. The first garrison came into view through the haze of the horizon, but we weren’t the first to arrive. A galleon sat there already four pirates busy with the fort. I shot over from the sloop, landing quiet at the top to scout things out. Word was these forts sometimes hid a smuggler’s black powder keg. A nasty piece of work if used right. I searched around the island but couldn’t find it… until I looked up. There it was. Those poor fools had hauled the keg all the way up into their crow’s nest like a trophy. Probably thought it was safe there. I started taking shots from the island, trying to knock it loose, but the angle was wrong. Cannon ***** smacked wood and rope, but the keg wouldn’t go. My crewmate decided to do things the hard way. He fired himself out of the cannon toward their ship. Halfway through the air still sailing through the sky like a ragged comet he shot the harpoon. Somehow he caught the keg straight from the crow’s nest and dragged it down with him as he slammed onto their deck. A second later the whole galleon erupted. The blast threw splinters and pirates alike across the deck. By the time the smoke cleared he’d cut down all four of them in the chaos. Their ship sank fast, slipping beneath the water like it had never belonged there. We finished the fort without much trouble after that. Rather than move on, we sailed a short distance off to let the garrison reset so we could run it again. While we waited, sails appeared on the horizon. Same galleon. They came back hungry. We tried the keg trick again, but this time fate wasn’t interested. The powder slipped into the water and vanished before it could do any good. After that it turned into a long, stubborn fight. For nearly an hour we traded blows. Sometimes we had them dead in the water masts down, deck full of holes. Then somehow they’d recover, patch up, and swing the fight back the other way. Cannon fire cracked across the waves. Boards, repairs, missed shots, lucky shots. Over and over. Neither side would leave. Eventually I went for a board while they were busy trading cannon fire with my crewmate. I climbed their ladder unnoticed and dropped onto the deck. Steel did the rest. Four pirates fell in quick succession to the sword. By the time they realized what had happened, my crewmate had them locked in a death circle with the cannons tearing their ship apart. After that I only saw one of them return from the Ferry of the Damned. The rest never came back. I reckon they’d had enough of the night. The galleon sank for the second time. We sailed back to the garrison hoping to finish what we started… only to find the whole place glitched to the depths. No completion. No treasure. Our first stack lost to whatever strange curse the sea had placed on the fort. So we did what pirates do when fortune turns strange. We sailed for Morrow’s Peak Outpost and sold the Reaper flags we’d taken from the galleon. A small victory, but better than empty hands. While we were there, we spotted a brigantine messing around at the northern garrison. Curiosity got the better of us. We sailed over to see what they were about. The moment they realized we were coming, panic set in. They cut and ran, diving beneath the waves to escape after a short skirmish. But in their hurry they left something behind. A pile of treasure bigger than anything we’d earned all night, a MEGA stash! We hauled it aboard piece by piece under the dim lantern light, the sea quiet again at last. Not a bad way to end a long fight. #BeMorePirate #SeaOfThieves

Hawii (@Hawii1931) reported@SeaOfThieves I am so tired of sudden server changes every 10 minutes could u please FIX that ????

𐌃𝖴𐌁 (@GoodfellaDub_) reportedLooking at these reviews for @SeaOfThieves on Xbox and A LOT of them want the same thing. A PVE mode where you can play with friends. I don’t understand why this is a bad thing. Remove safer seas. Make that an “Invite only” server and allow up to 6 boats. Problem solved.

🦂 (@Slaughterfascis) reported@SoT_Support @SeaOfThieves fix your game

Arbitrium選択 (comms. closed for medical reasons!)🍉 (@8BitBaka_) reported@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.
-
ajora (@ajoraXT) reported@SeaOfThieves "We know there's fundamental problems to combat and movement right now but we're not gonna ship the fixes we have until the 3rd act of the season (which we've delayed)" Great job, guys!
-
⚙️ (@d3monWo1f) reported@SeaOfThieves @theburntpeanut tried playing your game again. 2nd opportunity to gain players and same fn issues. Do you even care anymore?
-
Coastchiller (@ChillerCoast) reported@SeaOfThieves @MarathonTheGame Holy, the jokes write themselves right now.... 🤡👍 Unlike Everwild, Marathon did indeed launch, even tho @Bungie did put Destiny2 the community on the sacrificial altar to conjure up that mess. You should rather lock in and fix your "season" instead of making posts like this
-
Plank (@Usrnxme) reported@SeaOfThieves @SpecialEffect Can you please fix the green bottle spawn rate and mysterious journals??
-
Remz_get-_-down (@RemzGetDown_) reported@JackieChann87 @SeaOfThieves Yeah thats the issue, ashen keys should only spawn at emergent Garrisons
-
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
-
angus ⚔️🧙♂️ (@angusrayfield) reported@SeaOfThieves you have competition now can you fix your game?

-
ryan leach (@ryantheleach) reported@Game7DS @SeaOfThieves The video compression turns to absolute ****, and makes it look a LOT like AI generated video. But if this happened, it's more then likely a new loot teleport glitch, and you likely had a cheater in recently played under the report menu.
