Captain Rick (@cptn_rick) reported@xCentric23 @JamesDunnpizw @SeaOfThieves Bro they’re making a movie the game isn’t gonna just end service😭
-
Andrew Sharp (@sharpywesley) reported@SeaOfThieves What an absolute shambles this once great and noble game has become. And to the people in the comments saying “never mind, take your time” - demand more than this continuously piss poor service.
-
Flyfishersteven (@flyfishersteven) reported@SeaOfThieves What the heck did you guys do to the game with this update? All kinds of new issues
-
Jordan an artist (@Captainbat37) reported@SeaOfThieves Everything keeps releasing as a buggy broken mess
-
Electreidon (@Electreidon) reported@SeaOfThieves Still a broken game. Go figure.
-
Kittenspreee (@kittenspreee) reported@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
-
ScuffedDuff (@ScuffedDuff) reported@CaptainGG_R @SeaOfThieves Like this clip also has a visual glitch, so a promising start!
-
MarMar 🔻 (@MarMar_EoD) reported@SeaOfThieves when will you fix the absurd amount of bugs that are plaguing your game?
-
Golden Chaser (@ChaserGolden) reported@SeaOfThieves You really have trouble reading the "vibe check," don't ya? Christ. I understand needing to move forward at some point, but come on. At least let us see these "noticeable changes" first. Now, I think that was just a load of feel-good nonsense.
-
Aaron (@a_a_r0nn) reported@TormentedTofu @KingHotdogPig @SeaOfThieves "Correction: j0 and shirah have been deleting messages" this was a completely different CM. They CMs are rare employees and their actions reflect those of the company when doing business at work. The issue is larger than it seems despite attempts to minimize
-
Xyllius (@Xyllius) reported@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.
-
Lukitch (@Lukitch59) reported@aDreamingNomad @SeaOfThieves Even if you encounter it on retail server sometime u won t unlock the commendation, we already see some case while a cheater came and answer from support is … we can t unlock the commendation… so I don t see any issue to have it on custom server…
-
Valor Omega, Yonko of the Sea of Thieves (@Valor_Omega_SoT) reported@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.
-
Lacoe (@LacoeBlair) reported@SeaOfThieves Every time I tried to load it up it would disconnect almost instantly, spawned in disconnected, stepped foot on the ship disconnected
-
Sean Kelley (@threedaysawsome) reported@BocaG @Christi19879853 @SeaOfThieves It would literally hurt no one to make safer seas the full experience or just having private severs. They say its PvP game but the PvP aspect is whats the problem. Outside of janky hit boxes, there's no natural progress in skill when it comes to PVP. Thr gap is huge.
-
Nathanonfire (@Nathanonfire2) reported@Donuttboy @SeaOfThieves These broken feathers are awful and make it unfair ….. if it can’t be fixed immediately it needs to end
-
Justmy2cents (@Justmy2cents11) reported@Ri58995851 @SeaOfThieves Ok my bad lol and to tell you the truth. I hate SoT. I will never play another live service game in my life cuz of them. I’m an achievement ***** so I gotta keep everything at 100%. This ****** game keeps forcing me back, wrong tree with that gagging on SoT **** stuff.
-
LpG_VeLoCiTy (@LpG_VeLoCiTy) reported@SeaOfThieves @SoT_Support Custom server is broken. You host a game and load in and 10 seconds in there is a connection error issue and you cant play custom seas. Please help. Regular adventure works no issues though.
-
video game player (@piratesail0r) reported@SeaOfThieves Ok, sounds good, but you have to fix your community management structure first.
-
Candice Weatherby (@Twigleaf_Twigs) reported@EqualTree3 @SeaOfThieves Their event last week, the pop up plunder..... Didn't even work. So extending, or retrying is futile. They have no clue what they're doing. That's a fact. No amount of extending will fix it.
-
Defiant (@Defiantisdev) reported@SuperRegGuy @SeaOfThieves What glitch
-
0riginalpiratematerial (@0riginalpirate1) reportedQuick warning if anyone gets asked to update obs dont do it if u use game capture totally ruined my settings won't display game had to rollback pc to fix as found no workaround other than desktop capture #twitch #obs #seaofthieves
-
Lynnalia (@LynnaliaTV) reported@fredder6489 @SeaOfThieves Epic does it to "dogfood" their own engine, showing it off and also finding development issues. Considering their scale, that has massive value. Rare has no such incentive, especially when the game already runs so poorly.
-
Matt (@Sloopflex) reportedI 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
-
blvcklung (@real_blvcklung) reportedWith everything going on in the SoT community right now, it’s been really disappointing to see certain creators and familiar faces either show their true colours or stay completely silent, It’s honestly horrible seeing how broken parts of this community really are. #SeaOfThieves
-
Squidkiller8781 (@squidkiller8781) reported@AboutSelphy @SeaOfThieves because loss farming is a strat. As long as there are points awarded for losing, this is going to be an issue. To be clear, i think it IS an issue, loss farming. But your openly flexing on using an exploit to deprive people of something the devs think they deserve. Just stop.
-
lenny brown (@lennybr09839124) reported@SeaOfThieves Yall act like it'll actually work...ha, guaranteed it'll have plenty of broken features upon release, this is SOT after all
-
Matt McKeown (@NicaDeamuS55) reported@SeaOfThieves With every update comes 100s of more bugs and exploits. But hey release new content good job on that. Oh wait the content is broken constantly. But wait you know what will fix broken content....? Wait for it.....more broken content. Absolutely trash you guys need new jobs
-
Captain Falcore (@Captain_Falcore) reportedCustom Seas is going to be a lot of fun. It feels like it's been designed more with content creators in mind than the average player but I think most people will still get a good laugh out of it and create some memorable moments. The problem is that fun side content and seasonal content are not really the same thing. If this is supposed to help carry an entire Season alongside the occasional returning limited time event then it just is not enough by itself. Season 21 needs to land with some real weight behind it. Adventure Mode needs meaningful additions. New ships, new islands or even entirely new regions. Give players fresh reasons to explore the world and engage with the game in different ways. What we do not need is another couple of delivery missions wearing a fancy new outfit and pretending to be a major update. We have been sailing that particular route for quite a while now. #SeaOfThieves is at its best when it surprises people and gets the community genuinely excited to jump in and see what is new. It feels like it is time for that again. Anything less will mean terrible engagement.

Horizon (@Horizon2897) reported@fredder6489 @SeaOfThieves I think Sea of Thieves has bigger problems right now than the engine it runs on
