    @ChappersChapman @JoeNeate1 @SeaOfThieves Season 8 is great, but the supply problem is annoying. When you win and wanna go fight the next one, you first have to supply your ship for 15 mins. Maybe make all supplies from the losing ship spawn in a storage crate? #SeaOfThieves

  • BigWeby82 Andrew Weber (@BigWeby82) reported

    @Derektionz @MasterCrabs01 @SeaOfThieves Seems to mainly be an OCE server issue so no one cares. If it was happening to their big streamers they’d take action.

  • fae_nix NixFae (@fae_nix) reported

    why does hot micing not work in battles when you raise up from the water? this is so broken for open crew and not fair @SeaOfThieves

  • zhukov_thomas Senza's Birb (@zhukov_thomas) reported

    @SeaOfThieves I just finished a fight and the new sinking animation played for no reason (my ship was fully repaired and bailed), I lost hours worth supplies and loot. Did anyone else have this problem?

  • Fluids19189389 Fluids (@Fluids19189389) reported

    Fix your matchmaking with this new season @SeaOfThieves putting us up against players that don’t do anything but play this game that don’t know what a job is. Hell probably bursts into flames like a vampire when they walk into the sun.

  • MuskIsAJoke JokyNeverDies (@MuskIsAJoke) reported

    @Captain_Falcore @SeaOfThieves Nope it is not. It's actually broken and not tested. People can just vote for last tale, wait there for people to attack and sink without having to lift a finger cause you know, red sea for the attacker and not the other I loved this game but I don't anymore, I'm done

  • JudeBro31116456 Jude Brown (@JudeBro31116456) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Please, god please, can you fix the enemy spawns. I can't go one minute without tons of ocean crawlers ruining my day. The spawns are broken, we don't want this many enemies, and the game is not enjoyable because of this.

  • JacobPh17150422 Jacob Phillips (@JacobPh17150422) reported

    @DIDDY_DUMS @SeaOfThieves I ran into somebody who explained this to me it's a glitch if you die when you go underwater to search for a ship you pop out and respond as a ghost it's a bug that needs to get patched

  • Zuatti r. (@Zuatti) reported

    @SeaOfThieves are steam servers down?

  • VenomousGO Tristan (@VenomousGO) reported

    @Padam500 @SeaOfThieves Literally same issue for me

  • aggrandma ⚗️aggrograndma goblinmode (@aggrandma) reported

  • Derektionz ↕️Derektion↔️ (@Derektionz) reported

    @BigWeby82 @MasterCrabs01 @SeaOfThieves Mooks asked me about it the other day too, someone she knows got bombed by sot exploit so he is still roaming the sea. it just seems like rare won't even adress that its an issue.

  • 01_alastor Alastor 01 (@01_alastor) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Fix matchmaking times

  • ItsMe_Smokee ItsMe_Smokee (@ItsMe_Smokee) reported

    invincible players, blunder spam, curse spam, cheaters, being bugged stuck in place unable to move, ships stuck underwater that are unsinkable and are afk farming streak, 20+min que times, and a very broken mmr system what a great update #seaofthieves

  • Gldi2020 Captain Chicken (@Gldi2020) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Plead fix the duo sloop and solo sloop matchmaking. I've been matchmade as a solo sloop with a duo sloop. 2 times already. I've seen it happen to other players to. I know this is intentional, but it would be really great if you where to get rid of the fact that other ships can-

  • AlphaWolf1679 AlphaWolf (@AlphaWolf1679) reported

    @SmithyBug @Chrisi4210 @SeaOfThieves how do i know that they werent lagging or using a software or some other **** to get that effect? are you the kind of person who gets in the back of a white van that offers free candy or are you that stupid?

  • MasterCrabs01 Master Crab (@MasterCrabs01) reported

    @Maxime_lgf @SeaOfThieves Why wouldn't I? Visual advantage that the normal player would not be willing to violate. Due to terms of service by modifying in game files or memory addressing? Pretty sure my slider stops at 90. Regards Batman

  • Batesyy98 Bates (@Batesyy98) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Fix black screens pls

  • CommanderXHydra CommanderXHydra (@CommanderXHydra) reported

    @SeaOfThieves @SoT_Support fix your damn Skill based matchmaking. Legit my first fight my crew went against damn sweats. HEAVY SWEATS.

  • ThePapacita The Papacita (@ThePapacita) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Anybody not able to get into a match with the new war map? Just been endlessly matchmaking for 45 minutes now. Started off as an expected wait of 2 to 4 minutes then said 4 to 6. Anybody else having this issue?

  • achilles_x1 ACHILLES X1 (@achilles_x1) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Cant even fire the cannons when doing the pvp mode😡 they've broken every single time and wont fire! So Rediculous

  • SlamJam56565 SlamJam565🪠 (@SlamJam56565) reported

    @DIDDY_DUMS @SeaOfThieves That is a glitch if you go into a battle and you are on the ferry you will spawn on your boat as a ghost. You cannot do anything while in that state like eat food and fire cannons you have to leave the game to fix it.

  • BlackeyeThe2nd LJ a.k.a. BlackeyeThe2nd (@BlackeyeThe2nd) reported

    @DoctorMarik @Ribcic @SeaOfThieves ALSO just to remind you about OW GOATS, it was around for 2 1/2 years because OW League was only around for about 6 months of that at most, lol. SoT and OW devs are two different groups of people, and the SoT team cares way more but have a much harder game to fix.

  • Zex_aka_Don I Shall Commit Seppuku (@Zex_aka_Don) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Now if you would so kindly do a hot fix still glitching throw the boat an canons won't work sometimes

  • SadBarnacleBoy Sad Barnacle Boy (@SadBarnacleBoy) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Fix your broken laggy servers

  • IIMikezII Michael Lloyd (@IIMikezII) reported

    @hawkfrost34 @SeaOfThieves It does have SBMM the issue is it's a new system that's only just been introduced for this PvP feature, so everyone has started at the same "rank". It will take a bit of time for most players to climb and settle into the average "ranks" they belong in. It's only been 3 days.

  • GREENRA56347271 GREEN RANGER (@GREENRA56347271) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Overrated update. Game is terrible 3 days in. So many problems not thought about. Sounds good on paper but doesn’t work at all.

  • knaust_dane LYNX (@knaust_dane) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Fix black screens an we’ll be fine I promise

  • XXXRAYHAN ray (@XXXRAYHAN) reported

    fix matchmaking queue time gang @seaofthieves

  • Daniel75986190 Daniel (@Daniel75986190) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Hi is there a problem with the new system and finding opponents? I’ve tried 3 times now and I’ve waited about 20 plus minutes starting over switching factions everything. Nothing seems to work? This has been for the last 24 hours or so. Have you guys heard this problem from any1?
