BLU3SY (@BLU3SY_) reported@HitboTC @SeaOfThieves This is so bad. Almost as bad as when I was attacked for giving feedback in Alpha when the rainbow flag was put in the game. I thought it would cause issues for a game I loved, and it has. (That was a private forum) Yet it was shared all over Twitter and I was attacked brutally.

Jon (@JoNiScLoSeR) reported@SeaOfThieves Any update on why the Xbox servers have severe lag every-time anyone plays ? Or gonna keep pretending it isn’t a thing 👏🏻
-
Boca G (@BocaG) reported@JayBlu45 @VoicemasterTV @SeaOfThieves Yeah because a Gally chasing a sloop around the sea for 45 minutes is soooooo fun. 4-6 vs 1 is not a skill issue, and get better or get lost is so childish it’s almost maddening!

Fledder (@CalebFerraro) reported@betta_rdr2 @SeaOfThieves What in the broken physic slop is this?
-
Artist of Thieves (@ArtistofThieves) reported@surivSHANKS @ITZH4ZARD @SeaOfThieves The problem is not the orange association box, its the purple confirmed cheater box. No idea how they got that information though.
-
⚙️ (@d3monWo1f) reported@SeaOfThieves @theburntpeanut tried playing your game again. 2nd opportunity to gain players and same fn issues. Do you even care anymore?
-
Jore (@Joreftw) reported@FrostyRealLive @SeaOfThieves you don't know why i'm complaining. i love the game, day one player. It's just not needed, they should fix the game instead.
-
DavidG185 (@tctt185_dg) reported@SeaOfThieves Is it just me or am I getting unstable ping issues with this game over that weekend? I know I live in Australia, but my internet connection is stable and that is on Xbox Series X. 🫤

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

𝓜𝔂𝓽𝓱𝓲𝓬𝓪𝓵 𝓙𝓸𝓴𝓮𝓻 (@JokerMythical) reported@SeaOfThieves @gaming_4nj4 A lot of the codes are broken, don’t bother sending tickets to rare about it, they will just tell you to talk to Microsoft which is full of AI agents lol
-
MagmaBoots (@MagmaBoots) reportedIs it just me, or is everyone experiencing terrible frame drops in #SeaOfThieves lately? I have a pretty decent PC setup, but my frames are dying whenever I’m fighting a Burning Blade or completing Ashen Garrisons. The lag when opening barrels and crates seems to be back as well. Looking back at old game clips, it used to run smooth as butter. Will it ever feel that way again? @SoT_Support

SickStyle Gaming (@SickstyleG) reportedI believe in live and let live and for each to do their own thing. With that said if your "thing" is to be crude while farting and belching in your mic while trolling and griefing you're bound to strike the wrong nerve with someone loco enough to cause you issues. #seaofthieves

Aid (@whypickname) reported@RealLifeWookie @SeaOfThieves Im sorry but for a love service game thats some real ****** numbers to pull during an event but you keep on sailing your sinking ship.
-
Jim Binky (@Jimbinky) reported@Common_Potatos @SeaOfThieves That's why they started it early this time. It's gonna take longer cuz there's less interest. Should honestly just lower the requirements, but I guess this is one way to fix it.

🎀Hypernep🎀 (@HypershooterA10) reported@rogwala1 @TheTankBall @SeaOfThieves so what is the problem i dont even share nsfw in here and dont care because is legal
-
Valor Omega, Yonko of the Sea of Thieves (@Valor_Omega_SoT) reported@ToodleJerr3196 @RareLtd @SeaOfThieves Absolutely agree. Even with the actual game issues currently, I still have some hope for a future. But it's going to be very hard to trust Rare moving forward, and they are going to need to do some major work to gain player's trust back.

Optic (@khalidageele) reported@SeaOfThieves Fix ur game
-
NorthernLaw (@NorthernLawYT) reported@HitboTC @SeaOfThieves Growing pains? Game is almost a decade old. If they don’t improve the issues that have plagued the game from day one like bad servers and hit registration then the game will die. Not to mention they should listen to the community, wasn’t that the whole point of opening insiders?
-
Andre (@AndreMacca22) reported@SeaOfThieves @RareLtd @Rare Adding to this its sad to see a game that was in my life since i was 15 fall so far as it has, why cant you fix bugs,remove the acts system and add more permant content instead of taking it away like molten sands, that was incredibly fun cause it used the trading companies
-
Aaron THFC/MTFC (@SpursTHB) reported@SeaOfThieves can you stop the glitching under the map glitch ive had 3 of them today
-
Juke (@JukstJuke) reported@RealLifeWookie @SeaOfThieves Same. I quit sot when they removed quickswap and made all combat clunky as a result of the fix, i will not come back to sot but i still follow the game, i played sot since 2018 until season 10 religiously, all my friends quit around that time too.
-
Beardageddon (@RealLifeWookie) reported@fraudatori @SeaOfThieves You're missing the point. If you have sea of thieves on game pass, do not login to the game and vote an emisary you're not on the ledger. I'm assuming you haven't played this month? Go to the ledger and look for your position, you won't be on there until you login and vote
-
Baytash (@BishoyMilad) reported@SeaOfThieves I understand that you want to go for the grinding mechanic but the problem lies in there's nothing to grind if there's no alternate way of earning a suitable amount of doubloons after completing the deeds of the weekender, there has to be another way to earn doubloons.
-
Victor Escamilla (@CallMeViCtoR) reported@Musks_a_cunt @KingHotdogPig @SeaOfThieves you work on the 3rd floor of a 10 floor company building, the problem was on the 3 ofices that are in the corner of the 5th floor, all the building needs to stop working cus of those 3 ofices making the problem?

Justin Christie (@OKCJChristie) reported@SeaOfThieves Lone cove. In the cave by the broken boat. I got the Chest of Fortune.

Sea of Thieves Info & Support (@SoT_Support) reported@Jumper92PL @SeaOfThieves Hi there. Support tickets are the best way to contact our Support team as they have the ability to review your information and account info. If you tried raising a ticket earlier and experienced an issue where the submit button wasn't functioning, that should now be fixed. Cheers.

- ̗̀Z ̖́- (@Zairin__) reported@romanticidexx @wizardberry2822 @SeaOfThieves Except there's tons of people complaining about bugs. I made a whole list of things that are not connection issues, but server issues. I'm running on gigabit internet, and still get understandable rubberbanding, but everyone else I play with also sees the same bugs.

Amy (@molnaramy00) reported@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.

Tidey (@tidseas) reported@Steep_Mini @SeaOfThieves Even a broken clock is right twice a day.
