    @Joel71034850 @SeaOfThieves I feel like the cheater issue has gotten better? Went from going against one once a day to once a week it feels like- okay maybe a bit more than once a week but still less than the start of s8?

  • ViniciGaming Vinici (@ViniciGaming) reported

    @SeaOfThieves You fix the servers yet so people can sign in?

  • Hoody_chan2002 Hoodydotexe (@Hoody_chan2002) reported

    @ChloeSauras @SeaOfThieves There Hasn't been one for me sadly, this season was...Idk...the worst one so far for me, wasn't as fun like the other seasons to me (hourglass isn't fun to me cause to many sweats, cheater problems just getting worse and so on) :/

  • 8EEEEEEEEDc DoN DoN DoN (@8EEEEEEEEDc) reported

    @keeyaaaa @SeaOfThieves Yeah, IKR.. all those toxic PC Cheaters Rare does absolutely nothing about. 3rd party apps help the game lag so much less and the Cheaters make the game so much better when they're impossible to kill, teleporting mega kegs a mile in front of them to your boat.. 100% addictive...

  • CaptLongsocks 🧦 (@CaptLongsocks) reported

    @SpaghettiPirate @SeaOfThieves That's the problem though. They play it for the pve only when it's both. RIP Arena. 🙏🏻

  • HenkHildering Henk Hildering (@HenkHildering) reported

    @AxleFox @SeaOfThieves My crew has the same issue after doing 3 fortresses

  • CGallerine Gallerine (@CGallerine) reported

    @rarehatessolos @xB0NAx @SeaOfThieves No, you're being snarky and rude to everyone trying to provide a fix to whatever your problem is on Twitter. If you wanted to actually provide constructive feedback on something you don't like about the game, write up something proper, and post it on the Forums

  • borizruben boriz larsen (@borizruben) reported

    @GH_Honamar @SeaOfThieves you gonna fix it I really tempted to buy it ?

  • Morcath Morcath (@Morcath) reported

    Thought it might not be so bad, but I absolutely DON'T understand the PvE nerf, I'm sorry. Like, whenever was PvE difficulty a problem? Seriously. Takes challenge and thrill feeling right out of the game #SeaOfThieves

  • MkultraTuskegee MKUltra Tuskegee (@MkultraTuskegee) reported

    Did @RareLtd, @SeaOfThieves disable the @SoT_Support part of their website for the release of Season 9? Afraid of being told what they broke on this update? Because I get an error when trying to submit a report, and I can't even access my previous reports.

  • skyde1k Skyde (@skyde1k) reported

    @FroznBlood53 @pop_isn @SeaOfThieves They sell it for 40€ on last gen consoles idiot. It's 1000% their problem.

  • BBT_23 Bobo23 (@BBT_23) reported

    @ArdentNether @SeaOfThieves You guys know what a "game as a service" is, right ? They're selling in-game stuff (Emporium, Season Pass) to earn money and develop the game. I wonder what they do with the money, cause this update consists of tweaks and "bug" fixes that can be done in 2 days of developement.

  • Flizzar Flizzar 🏴‍☠️ (@Flizzar) reported

    @LowIqPerson @SeaOfThieves I see, hopefully they will fix it sooner or later

  • UrfavouriteG Divindande (@UrfavouriteG) reported

    @Joel71034850 @SeaOfThieves it def. wouldve been retweeted by rare if you wouldnt have mentioned their cheater problem that they cant fix lmao

  • edudris edudriS (@edudris) reported

  • zen_1th_ Sarah (@zen_1th_) reported

  • KyleRob78424266 Chknwyng (@KyleRob78424266) reported

    @SeaOfThieves I’m shaking in anger, this why I quit playing your game for 3 years, fix your flipping GAMEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • ClaireTuck710 Claire Kew-Tuck (@ClaireTuck710) reported

    @SeaOfThieves the problem with your game is when there are adults actually teasing & taunting other players. possibly forgetting that this is a game that 12 year olds can play!! Angry parent hear when my son has been trying to complete one of the fall tales for 2 hours…

  • ToejahMM ToejahM (@ToejahMM) reported

    If Season 9 update notes for @SeaOfThieves doesn't have under known issues: Hit detection. I'll lie and say I pushed my son off the boat.

  • skyde1k Skyde (@skyde1k) reported

    @GreysonW98 @pop_isn @SeaOfThieves Jesus Christ you are slow. Even the compass don't load in. How do you think that's not an issue?

  • PinkDante 000 (@PinkDante) reported

    Been a decent day so far… might be calling it early. There will be a @SeaOfThieves stream tonight with the new season. I’m going to try to stream on @KickStreaming and if there’s issues, will end up on Twitch. 8:30pm-ish eastern

  • BunniezLIVE bunniez (@BunniezLIVE) reported

    @zzziirn @CapnNoBeards @SeaOfThieves dont expect a fix then, they dont want to talk to you here

  • Flizzar Flizzar 🏴‍☠️ (@Flizzar) reported

    @LowIqPerson @SeaOfThieves Uhmm not on my sessions, I was used to run the Eternal freedom hull with the sailor wheel and capstain. Both always getting black, no problems at all. Try a different hull, not all the skin match their color. Check the mast, if it changes, the wheel should too.

  • ItemsENABLED ItemsON (@ItemsENABLED) reported

    @SeaOfThieves That's one of the biggest problems with this game. All the sailing takes hours. And even when I'm ready to quit I still have to play another half hour just to make sure I sell everything

  • Dieter_still Dieter (@Dieter_still) reported

    @rarehatessolos @SeaOfThieves Not being able to defend solo sounds like a giant "you problem"

  • creepycrutch creepy McRib crutchfield (@creepycrutch) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Is this even not working for anyone? I have visited both active and non active forts and it’s not giving me credit?

  • DeadCarnival WickedDeath (@DeadCarnival) reported

    @Nintyuk @SeaOfThieves @RareLtd For every ONE fix, there is TEN breaks else where. All of their fixes and updates benefit their PC buddies. I have yet to see one that benefited me as a solo slooper. Had I known that single players were going to be **** on so bad I wouldn't have bought the game.

  • Nateafire Nateafire (@Nateafire) reported

    @SeaOfThieves FIX YOUR FUCKINGG GAAAAAAAME, I HAVE AT LEAST 40 CLIPS OF THIS **** GAME ******* ME OVER EITHER BY JUST NOT ALLOWING ME TO EITHER JUMP OR USE ANY OF MY TOOLS AND TAKING LONGER TO LOAD IN TIMES WHEN IT MATTERS, ****!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • brittanystarii Starii ❤🏳️‍🌈 (@brittanystarii) reported

    Why does Sea of Thieves have to be *** and crash right when I'm in the middle of a fight with someone. So much ******* loot lost. We sunk them once and we could have again if it hadn't booted me off and left my teammate stranded. 😒 #SeaofThieves

  • KnightofDrip211 Devils *** (@KnightofDrip211) reported

    It's really disheartening when the only people you can dive with either quit after one match or you get sunk to cheaters dropping the n bomb. Fix your game rare @SeaOfThieves
