    @SeaOfThieves you guys are so trash. You ban me without giving a reason or a time. Your website is also trash because I can’t open a support ticket. It’s a constant cycle of logging in and being sent back to the home page. Fix your trash issues

    @digital_firefly @SeaOfThieves Yea, anyone one the server can place an effigy here, so it can be activated by other crews on the server. The only problem is getting other crews together to actually do the summoning.

    So we just stole the new athena tornado from some one and as soon as we killed the last player, the entire thing stopped and ghost ships disappeared. No loot anywhere. Is this a glitch? Or safeguard against stealing it? @JoeNeate1 @SeaOfThieves @ChappersChapman

    My pc doesn't run games very well at all anymore. Hopped on #SeaOfThieves today to pay tribute to when it used to run well... Boat crashed twice due to the lag but I still managed to find and sell a reapers chest in the 30 minutes I played for. Good memories. <3

    @SeaOfThieves You guys need to make your pvp better designed, I am so sick of being killed by random people and not being able to defend myself. Fix it or I'm uninstalling my game.

    JeffercakesGamez (@JeffercakesG) reported

    @SeaOfThieves You need to fix what happens on server migration - we did 3 of the megs and then got hit with a migration and it wiped all of our progress. Gave up as we had already spent 2.5 hours sailing across the map to complete it. Really disheartening and needs to be fixed.

    @GuzzBozo @ShadowFang1996 @SeaOfThieves Not worked hard - lucked into you mean. Everything else is grind based, with well over a thousand hours and still not seeing one yet EVERYTHING else in game has been achieved…seems kinda broken tbh

    Just spent hours playing the 2 hours killing megaladons in the new adventure for the end to not work! @SoT_Support @SeaOfThieves FIX YOUR GAME!!!! THANKS FOR WASTING MY TIME. #SeaOfThieves #SoT

    @Hidden3lite @SeaOfThieves I agree with you. My wife always has problems getting bullied when she is soloing. Last time she quit because she had a galleon ghost and three person reaper galleon on her. She couldn't defend herself at all. She votes for solo lobbies all the time.

    @SeaOfThieves Do we have to be 5 to do the adventure? Because we had trouble finding a 5th person.

    I'm having some real anxiety with the Twitch drops. I watched, said I claimed it but it's not in my game..😖 Please not this again, I had such an issue with the last drops! #SeaOfThieves

    @CGallerine @YTUltraLetsPlay @SeaOfThieves The problem is some people had amazing photos and the winners most of the time have basic ones. Many people strive to do their best and in the end the most basic and often too inferior are chosen. That's the problem of this "contest"

    @SeaOfThieves My crew and I played the Shrouded Deep voyage today. We came across an issue after two server resets a hour apart. Two of our Megaladon souls disappeared from the summons table and I wasn't up for doing it again. That's what we get for playing it on the day the update is put out!

    @SoT_Support Two nights in a row the Shrouded Deep bugs out at the end of chapter 1 every time after several attempts… please fix!! #SeaOfThieves #SoT

  • MinkRoyal
    RoyalMink (@MinkRoyal) reported

    @noob76052507 @SeaOfThieves It's a small issue if it's only happening to adventure megs but the ongoing weak server performance is a big bummer/issue imo! They should fix this asap! If necessary take the servers 12h-24h offline to fix it! :/

    Are there checkpoints in this new adventure in #SeaofThieves ? Can we get it part of the way done, disconnect and then continue another day, @SeaOfThieves ? I see people waiting for other crews, but if none show, can you just try again at a later time without starting over?

  • stormisjesus

    @OtherFanboy @XRayLexx @SeaOfThieves Wow so it 100% does need 2 crews? Well I'm 100% uninterested. Hungering deep was a huge issue cause of this, no clue what possesed them to do it again then

    Anyone else's #SeaOfThieves #TheShroudedDeep adventure not working? I complete chapter 1 and then it just removes the quest from my ship? @SeaOfThieves @RareLtd #bugged

    Pete Atha (@Athaelvis) reported

    @Phantaxus @SeaOfThieves Doesn't change my other issues. If all you get is a title and a cosmetic, I'm not that bothered, and I'll wait for them to release something else for the solo players. I'm sure that 90% of players are sound, it's just that I only seem to meet the 10% who want to ruin it for me
