  @HitboTC @sandthegame @SeaOfThieves Sand definitely has a lot of work needing done to fix bugs and get the cheating under control. Don’t get me wrong it’s definitely fun, but definitely has an uphill battle to polish it up

  Last ship standing just killed of my drive to "getting everything" in sea of thieves, that includes all the emporium items. I will now only play to unlock achievements as they are added. I am done. For that, I am thankful. @SeaOfThieves, forcing me to sit through 40+ minute queue times to get into a game with cheaters, I am just not doing it. Since this will be the first set of cosmetics since launch that have been obtainable to everyone in the player base I wont get, I see no reason to keep playing. The streak/curse has been broken, It was a good run. Now, back to Forza Horizon 6.

  Hold Rare accountable. They won't do it themselves. Do not let this turn into a joke or a developer issue. A child was hurt because of Rare's continued lax approach to player safety. This kid needs us to step up, and those who don't are failing them. #Rare #seaofthieves

  @squidkiller8781 @Dambitt_ @SeaOfThieves well look, cheaters aren't really a big problem now. There were less of them than the actual number of bugs. They made them "grind" to be able to play Hourglass, so most risks their main profile in the process or completely given up on playing with those. (Yes on PC)

  @Musks_a_cunt @KingHotdogPig @SeaOfThieves That is what I mean by "not saying they are doing it correctly". First thing they should've done would've been put the people in question on leave until issues are pointed out. But then again, it's not the fault of most of the company. It's the fault of PR and also HR.

  @SeaOfThieves @RareLtd Ah yes, only listen to the big streamers. That’ll fix the game 💀

  The statement didn't mean anything really did it you can make any positive u want but it isn't gonna fix the core problem here games cooked and most would rather have drops than protect kids #fucksotpartner #fucksot #seaofthieves

  @Donuttboy @SeaOfThieves These broken feathers are awful and make it unfair ….. if it can’t be fixed immediately it needs to end

  @Gamepi31 @IMadyax @SeaOfThieves They have been on this game since 2018 - they should know by now how long they need - and also the issues were not anything like as bad as this in the first few years!

  @knglover @SeaOfThieves This is what they want to fix! Player engagement/random encounters is KING in SoT

  @SeaOfThieves Any update on why the Xbox servers have severe lag every-time anyone plays ? Or gonna keep pretending it isn’t a thing 👏🏻

• 
  Matt (@Sloopflex) reported 30 minutes ago

  I don’t make a lot of comments about sot issues but it is truly baffling to me how much the SoT community is blowing up right now and Rare is staying silent and dodging it. Action needs to be taken. Do better @SeaOfThieves and you need to FIRE @j0toro

  @Valor_Omega_SoT @RareLtd @SeaOfThieves In a way, I don't want to trust this particular team again. It's a huge letdown and disappointment especially being on the Stream Team and seeing how things "get done." They've dragged *** on too many things and now it's about being honest, open and direct about a serious issue.

  @supermariopla11 @SeaOfThieves That's...that's not what's causing server performance to suck. Like at all. Preventing expansion of the game, maybe. But not server issues. If anything, high end PCs with uncapped FPS and/or max graphics cause more server strain. But even that isn't the underlying issue.

  @SeaOfThieves Did yall patch the new glitch that lets players get infinite levels on HG?

  Is the matchmaking for Last ship standing broken ? I cant find anything for past 30 minutes. multiple sessions stuck in waiting for other crews @SeaOfThieves

  @SeaOfThieves @RareLtd This game has become nothing more than a broken beta test. Absolute trash, unplayable.

  @SeaOfThieves Fixed the problem where Galeones could hourglass que against solo sloops?

  Valor Omega, Yonko of the Sea of Thieves (@Valor_Omega_SoT) reported 46 minutes ago

  @shenanigoon @RareLtd @SeaOfThieves I truly hope so. It's so disheartening to see everything that's happened. Nevermind the lack of trust from the current game issues, this happening has been a major black spot on this game/studio. I still have a sliver of hope left, but frankly I am not holding my breath.

  @aDreamingNomad @SuperRegGuy @SeaOfThieves ...so long that I used PayPal refund service as the eligibility was running out (and you could literally no longer contact the store).

  @OzurianArt @SeaOfThieves Removal from the website is good request... as far as the hat goes, a simple way to solve the that problem is to delete the game. If you really don't want to be associated with the game, then don't play it.

  @oGrimz @SeaOfThieves Id rather they run events consistently over the next few months and just fix issues during that time. Still gives us things to do

  @HitboTC @SeaOfThieves The emporium seems to not work as well as RARE would like to, given that they are restructuring it into a Fortnite like shop that swaps out cosmetics now and then (which is dumb as heck). But the real issue many won't spend money is because many sets look absolutely out of place

  @SeaOfThieves ****** Twitch Drops. Broken Doubloon Weekender. Free Emote that everyone already has, get more creative. Last Ship Standing will miss the mark again. New Emporium items stink. Pocket Lizard & Last Ship Standing music is good. They once again missed the mark.

  @King_0f_Souls @SeaOfThieves No the cashew beard is from their previous fix to prevent disconnections mid queue. If it was the requeue we’d see the issue in hg
