@_Tobias03_ @SeaOfThieves Because PVP-only players have one less thing to do, we were all waiting for them to fix it.

People whining about the Arena cosmetics represent one of the biggest problems with the #SeaOfThieves community that is holding the game back. It is actually WILD that when Rare says "this isn't for you" people feel so entitled they can't accept that simple truth.

@diskittysonfire @SeaOfThieves Its tough but in the end they never wanted Aren to succeed. They ignored any community requests and castigated streamers who wanted to make it their own and TDM. This to me was a resources decision by higher ups to fix their massive loss of players.

@bubblekittea @_Tobias03_ @SeaOfThieves Idk why you were waiting for them to fix it. Over a year ago they announced they were no longer giving Arena any support, and they talked about the same small %’s then

Still trying to digest the whole “rip arena” thing. It comes off as a lazy cop-out from @RareLtd , tbh. They could either focus on hitreg issues and ensure competitive play or get rid of arena and focus on more PvE stuff. @SeaOfThieves should look after all the playerbase, no?

@BereniqueA @SeaOfThieves Only 2% play Arena, how is a paywall gonna fix this? All you people complaining even though barely anyone of you even played Arena.

@iFuZeShEeTz @SeaOfThieves Yeah, very new... Back when you could instant swap guns and kill people in less than a second, there was barely any hit reg issues at all. Not even close to today. The reason was that the world was empty compared to today. Less treasure om each server, less events, and no Arena.

@SeaOfThieves I already have the flag though. Is that a glitch?

(@Sekkosakk) reported
@iFuZeShEeTz @SeaOfThieves What do you know? What if removing Arena and freeing up them servers is necessary for them in order to FIX THE GAME? So many knowers on twitter that apparently knows how to run the game better than the actual developers.. Just chill and let them fix their game the way they want.

Open letter to @RareLtd @SeaOfThieves, Removing arena was a good idea. There was a lack of interest and devolpmental resources. It is a bad idea to remove content without replacing it with anything similar. Arena suffered from broken window theory.

@gaygiorno @SeaOfThieves Same problem. It's logical people are not going in Arena anymore. You got to find it on the screen menu. Imagine a new player opening the game. They just don't see it and don't care. They want to dig chest, and after completing things like us, they only start to focus on PVP.

Hit registration and the current rubberbanding that is happening on @SeaOfThieves servers and the data lost issues are hot topics for the podcast. @xtinaistyping @internalerror86 #sotpodcast #SeaOfThieves

(@Duckboyfi) reported
@SoT_Support @X0Boom @SeaOfThieves But the post doesn't say anything about arena achievements? I'm mostly worried about steam/xbox achievements because then you can't 100% the game anymore. One possible way to fix this would be to remove the steam/xbox achievements, but leave the commendations. 1/2

@TheSwedishDemon @SeaOfThieves I agree! It could’ve been something cool if they added some sort of leaderboard/ladder for people to compete (like seasons). But it’s better this way since they obviously not gonna do anything to fix it :)

Berenique
(@BereniqueA) reported
@kartobiene @squiresly @SeaOfThieves Well, it requires 1 game designer, 2 devs (1 for appliing new adventure changes and 1 to fix bugs), 1 PR manager to work with community. A little more, if we are talking about expanding this gamemode. One monthly arena pass would cover that risks if we are talking about 2%

@SeaOfThieves Any chance you can leave arena running, an instead of abandoning it without making Any solid attempts to fix it, maybe add some new game modes to it? Hmm? You ever think of adding a little effort into it? Or making money off of emporium was more important? ... Figures

(@OkkanaiDK) reported
@Threkald @RareLtd @SeaOfThieves There never was enough reason for people to try arena, that was the main problem. Only two cosmetic sets and barely any gold reward on top of no other currency tied to arena. Pretty sure that’s a huge part why people didn’t give it a chance

@micromads @Sammywitchdr1 @SeaOfThieves People are hurt by Rare and Sea of Thieves. This is uncharacteristic of them. People that support and love the game and have never said a bad thing about it are hurt. That’s how you know this was a bad move and one that’s broken trust.

@Sekkosakk @SeaOfThieves To my knowledge the problem wasn't arena. It was a solution to my understanding since banned players can easily return via bypassing hardware bans and since the game is behind a 1-10 dollar paywall its way too easy for them to come back angrier and continue their behaviour

@fashy @SeaOfThieves Lol. Go to your companion app if you're microsoft player and watch some of the stats. It will probably surprise you. All I say is that they don't focus on the right problems. It's been 3 years and there is still no endgame. Come on. I'm not only defending Arena.

(@NexStargaze) reported
@lmDinoNuggie @hardway_jones @SeaOfThieves Getting to level 50 in arena honestly wasn't that easy. Server/connection issues causing people to get barred from the game mode, TDM lobbies, constant chest runners, spawncampers o' plenty. Arena 50 is a grind in its finest form, and no one wanted to play it. Until now.

@SeaOfThieves Things to fix instead of taking arena away: Sloops spawns Hit reg Mermaids Lack of pvp in adventure The infinite bugs this game has As someone who has been playing since 2018 The decisions that are being made for this year are so disappointing #SeaOfThieves

The fact that @RareLtd would rather remove Arena from @SeaOfThieves rather than try fix it just sums up how they deal with all their issues. Next thing they will remove will be weapons because they don't know how to fix hitreg.

@Sekkosakk @SeaOfThieves I know you are probably really new to SoT, but the game was broken WAAAYYYY before arena was added, the game had crazy hitreg issues when I started around the double gun nerf. I can't wait to hop on a server and sail for 45 minutes just to only find tall-talers... #savearena

@enfysnest64 @SeaOfThieves I literally tried to play it so many times. I was really waiting for them to fix queues before I finally played it because I love Arena. I don't enjoy or play tall-tales.

@rng_solo_81 @Jett_Dragonite @SeaOfThieves It was just such a grind initially when they didn't fix queue times (100 times top 3, then 100 wins w/ sea dog equipt) it's even more of a grind in 1 month

@SeaOfThieves stop with the STUPID Scooby Doo mystery stories and fix the mercenary mission to where Cargo Runs count towards completion of 250 Merchant missions. And fix the Shrouded Ghost BS, been playing since launch and haven’t seen him once.
