    @SeaOfThieves @RareLtd Rare pls fix servers

  • hlviii67_howard WonderOdin91967 (@hlviii67_howard) reported

    @xtwiztidjayx @SoT_Support @SeaOfThieves Just don’t play. I would suggest you test out the system by getting one thing and selling it it doesn’t record leave and play something else. It always happens and rare will never fix it period. I always try it out on GG weekend but I never stack ever anyway. Level 5 sell.

    @Jazbows @SeaOfThieves You and SoT aren't better than anybody. I love solo games wayyy more than social multiplayer games for the very same issues I have with SoT. Does it hurt your feelings that I want a 1v1 mode or that I don't like the same things you do? Tell me all about it, see if I care lol

  • Masokista93 Masokista (@Masokista93) reported

    @Trans_Communist @Crayzcapper @SeaOfThieves The problem there is Red Dead, not the mechanic. They failed to make it fun/interesting.

  • harleybrownlie TheClownPrinceOfGames (@harleybrownlie) reported

    @xALISTAIR_brown @SeaOfThieves That sounds like a you problem

  • gonch_rock Rock The Gonch (@gonch_rock) reported

    Yo @SeaOfThieves @SeaOfThievesIT fix your servers US east coast

  • SMthegamer1 Shawn Matthews (@SMthegamer1) reported

    @eva_erotic @SeaOfThieves Because your inner ear fluid isn't being affected by the by the waves, on a swing you're sloshing about like a bartender making drinks with silly names. It's why focusing on a single point and keeping your head level is often advised to avoid the issue, reduces fluid movement.

  • TheYammyOfc Yammy (@TheYammyOfc) reported

    @BeardyMcgreen @SeaOfThieves I sure hope not. That's been an issue since sitting was introduced. #Justiceforbigpirates

  • xCesiox Cucaraman (@xCesiox) reported

    @SeaOfThieves I get lavenderbeard error on steam servers, are server in maintenance?

  • Francis90924897 Francisco (@Francis90924897) reported

    @SeaOfThieves fix server please

  • LeHommeMort Sombre (@LeHommeMort) reported

    @SeaOfThieves My crew and I just did an Athena’s veil and a Skull fort, but we’re not getting anything for any of the loot. Could this be just a glitch, or something we missed?

  • ImxCLOUDx iM xCLOUDx (@ImxCLOUDx) reported

    @SeaOfThieves FIX THE SWORD DASH BUG, worst bug in the game by far!

  • DarkNightXd1347 Mitch M (@DarkNightXd1347) reported

    @SeaOfThieves 2nd time the ship on merchant alliance didnt spawn if you can, please fix this

  • DarkerCrimson Darker Crimson (@DarkerCrimson) reported

    @SeaOfThieves "Fix the Crashing to Desktop"

  • Moee2003 Moe (@Moee2003) reported

    @RealChappieTV @SeaOfThieves Yeah a lot of people were receiving alabasterbeard and it wasn’t on SoTs end this time. Xbox had some issues earlier this morning/ last night and it affected other Xbox games too apparently

  • EqualTree3 EqualTree3 (@EqualTree3) reported

    @OdaTheHexed @SeaOfThieves He stayed there for years but suddenly...all of that would change. One day, the owner of the Sea Dogs suddenly shut down the tavern and disbanded the faction for no reason. Rogers was angered by this but didn’t want to cause trouble, so he left on his ship and sailed away.

  • PirateBroonix ThePirateBroonix (@PirateBroonix) reported

    At least stool covered capstans will finally make them fix the place stuff on the capstan bug. #SeaOfThieves #Prediction #season7

  • xtwiztidjayx X TwiZtiD Jay X (@xtwiztidjayx) reported

    @IIMikezII @SoT_Support @SeaOfThieves Was not loot stacking. Been playing since Day 1. I know this has happened on multiple occasions. This should not be an issue 90% of the Gold and Glorys that have been live since game lauch. If the issue can't be solved, what's the point of even having them.

  • IIMikezII Michael Lloyd (@IIMikezII) reported

    @xtwiztidjayx @SoT_Support @SeaOfThieves Sell more often so you don't have a "boat full of loot" ? Solves one of the issues at least. Servers bound to have issues when hundreds of thousands all trying to sell at once during these events. Plan accordingly and don't loot stack.

  • RachelMaduroArt Rachel Maduro🎨 commissions open🎨 (@RachelMaduroArt) reported

    @Falcon59875668 @SeaOfThieves No. The last story we did my friend and I played through about the third chapter, I literally said "let's get to a stopping point so we can pick up where we left off. We came back and it restarted from chapter one again. I'm not the only person who had this issue.

  • Vupzy Cpt Vup (Flamehearts Vengeance) (@Vupzy) reported

    Nearly sunk to hitreg issues and black screening but don’t worry fellow pirates, We got stools for season 7. Because obviously without stools we couldn’t have a great gaming experience. #SeaOfThieves Just kidding but seriously lol.

  • rtrimyer06 Ryan (@rtrimyer06) reported

    @Butts418 @SeaOfThieves what was the banter? maybe that was the issue

  • Jtwitt2 Jonathan Turner (@Jtwitt2) reported

    @Jazbows @SeaOfThieves Not sure how it's a me problem when I haven't deviated from my original intent of the post, which is wanting 1v1 servers. It's not that complicated to understand 1v4 is unfair. If you don't understand or agree than that's a you problem cause it's got nothing to do with me

  • Layz1978 Lay (@Layz1978) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Couldn't make pirate legend. CAUSE THE GAME KEEPS CRASHING! FIX IT BEFORE NEW UPDATE!

  • RealChappieTV TheRealChappie (@RealChappieTV) reported

    I know my internet right now is potato, but is anybody getting Alabasterbeard errors trying to get in @SeaOfThieves ?

  • ThatDocGuy_ Fwistopher 🏳️‍🌈 (@ThatDocGuy_) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Y'all ever fix the bugs where the game freezes and then crashes with no error code on both PC and Xbox, even after verifying drivers and updates and clearing caches?

  • xtwiztidjayx X TwiZtiD Jay X (@xtwiztidjayx) reported

    @harleybrownlie @xALISTAIR_brown @SeaOfThieves No that's a game problem. It started happening a few updates back.

  • JaesunX JaesunX (@JaesunX) reported

    @Butts418 @SeaOfThieves @SeaOfThieves what the heck. This ban is unacceptable. Either you clarify what the toxicity was so it's not repeated or you revoke the ban. Why is guilty until proven innocent always an issue with the bans in this game?

  • lauramckee88 laura mckee (@lauramckee88) reported

    @SeaOfThieves please can you fix the game everyone keeps getting kicked out the game all the time at the most inappropriate times it's really putting people off the game cause we can't do voyage or nothing because of this
