Andre (@AndreMacca22) reported@SeaOfThieves @RareLtd @Rare Adding to this its sad to see a game that was in my life since i was 15 fall so far as it has, why cant you fix bugs,remove the acts system and add more permant content instead of taking it away like molten sands, that was incredibly fun cause it used the trading companies

Myra O' Connor (@TheMalSid) reported@SkyrageUk @CODE_3CH0 @SeaOfThieves Thats actually a completely different reason... on discord servers you can discuss issues till the mods ban you.... in my case, tiktok support line has been fully ai and you can't get thru to a human or even get actual answers cause they ai is too under developed... hope that you

arditobn (@Giovann69642526) reported@KingHotdogPig @RareLtd @SeaOfThieves Changing your profile picture and adding Star Citizen as a replacement game for Sot, hahaha. No one said Sot's conditions are great; in fact, S20 and up should have zero errors. But it doesn't do you credit to behave like this.

Eli Mayorga (@EliMayorga7) reported@SeaOfThieves You need to ******* fix PVP me and my friend are doing PVP and another ******* sloop that's not doing PVP come over and sinks us. How is this ******* fair when someone else comes over and ruins PVP FIX ******* PVP! @SeaOfThieves

Hoodydotexe (@_Hoodydotexe_) reported@SeaOfThieves Stop pushing the problems away Rare, you guys are making it so much worse for urself

shaun john (@shaunjo57082499) reported@SeaOfThieves @MSCasualGames Your discord allows accounts with no mobile verification to join. Means someone can make a fresh untraceable account and do exactly what bruno did. Fix it fast.
-
Googs (@myweeweetinybro) reported@AlmtyChcknPoo @SeaOfThieves To be fair some of us kinda blow ***. I care more about numerous sot community moderators blocking me for talking about quality control issues within the game instead of glazing ******** out of it like a fat kid preparing a toaster strudel for himself.
-
RevBombRR Official (@RevBombRR) reported@SeaOfThieves The fact that the game is this old and you guys still can't figure out how to release an update says something about the dev team. If I was this bad at my job, I definitely wouldn't have 19 seasons to fix it

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.

BananaStove (@BananaStove) reported@SeaOfThieves #seaofthieves punishing the player base for your mistakes is not the way to solve problems. this issue should have been solved on day1 of the weekender not a month later how are people supposed to make doubloons when the only doubloon item is 10 at base value
-
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.

Hans (@HansWalter113) reported@SeaOfThieves Server down? I cant join the Sea! 🙄
-
Potato (@Common_Potatos) reported@SeaOfThieves @XBOX Can you guys fix your connection issues in last ship standing.
-
CaptainDarkseason (@CDarkseason) reported@SeaOfThieves Disappointing mess of a weekend. Dabloons not tracking or lagging hard. Text not showing on instructions. Rage inducing bilge rat tasks. Having to wait a whole day for a fireworks display to be at a certain outpost. The fishing was chill but pointless as no dabloons
-
MissingMonster (@GDad11381402) reported@SeaOfThieves can you fix your bugs and glitches instead of dropping more and more cosmetics to make money players dont give a **** about skins if the games broken kraken suck animation is broken to point to where you get glitched out and cant move to repair ship you know how aggrevating that is when you spent 4 hours at gathering loot for achievements fix your ****

TerMornétor (@TerMornetor) reported@SeaOfThieves do you know that you kick players for idling WHILE ACTIVELY BROWSING AND PURCHASING FROM SHOPS?! Just thought you’d want to fix the dumb bug😒
-
Valor Omega, Yonko of the Sea of Thieves (@Valor_Omega_SoT) reported@ToodleJerr3196 @RareLtd @SeaOfThieves Absolutely agree. Even with the actual game issues currently, I still have some hope for a future. But it's going to be very hard to trust Rare moving forward, and they are going to need to do some major work to gain player's trust back.
-
Amy (@molnaramy00) reported@MurpheyLives @SeaOfThieves @Rare_Gamer This is the worst possible statement you could make. "Clear his name"??? It is OVER. There is nothing to clear. The best you could've done is apologizing for your poor judgment, but considering you were part of that disgusting joke a year ago, I guess you regret nothing. It's not a problem that people like that lose the community. The problem is that they did NOT lose it for the first obvious signs. Goodbye.

Andrew Sharp (@sharpywesley) reported@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!

Tonic Taz (@TonicTaz) reported@SeaOfThieves Can you fix the flag one already? When i hit start now it just takes me back to main screen on PC and mobile.

IRL_Games (@IRLGames4) reported@Xbox @Mr_Dishyy Can’t wait to hide @SeaOfThieves and the broken achievements…

Fledder (@CalebFerraro) reported@betta_rdr2 @SeaOfThieves What in the broken physic slop is this?

꩜ Dreamcast Forever (@Nemesis2K) reportedLast 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.
-
Smoke (@SmokeBeardTV) reported@Psychobaker_24 @RareLtd @SeaOfThieves i dont believe thats up to you or me to decide that, lets just wait for the company to address the problem publicly.
-
cold (@coldsot_) reported@hasmoq @SeaOfThieves The games not broken at all!

Beardageddon (@RealLifeWookie) reported@fraudatori @SeaOfThieves By increasing the number of people who have to login to be on the ledger.

KingHotdogPig (@KingHotdogPig) reportedI can’t even put into words how disheartening it is to see #SeaOfThieves in the state it’s currently in. We have Community Managers behaving unprofessionally, Discord mods acting like they rule the world, and both think they're above the rest of us. United in censoring discussion around individuals who have absolutely ZERO place in this community and pose an actual threat to everyone in it. All while players are constantly being gaslit by those same CMs and mods into believing the community isn’t in complete disarray when it very clearly is. What makes this even worse is that these are the very people whose job is supposed to be upholding the community’s values, the Pirate Code, and Microsoft’s Terms of Service. But it feels like nothing is being enforced at all. Situations like this are 100% avoidable too. If the CM team had genuinely listened to the community and addressed these concerns and allegations early on and did something about it, things never would have reached this point. To be clear, this issue has absolutely nothing to do with the production or creative development side of the game. Please don't tag developers, artists, designers, or other team members into discussions they have no involvement in. Our criticism and calls to action are specifically directed at the community management side of Sea of Thieves. That team needs serious retraining, and a reevaluation of whether certain individuals even possess the requirements needed to continue representing the Sea of Thieves community in their current roles. I'm so tired of this, I just want to play the game man... @SeaOfThieves @RareLtd

DK2️⃣ (@DayKahDos) reported@KingHotdogPig @SeaOfThieves The problem with the voyage cap isn’t even the 3 per pirate - it’s the fact you can only complete 3 before it gives gold instead of doubloons. Apologies if this is what you meant - but I figured that we were gonna be able to do at least 12 (3x4 on gally) but couldn’t obviously

OphieIRL (@OphieIRL) reportedHey, so, no. You didn't listen for years. Your community management team didn't do their jobs. Fire the people who failed the commu ity. Stop this virtue signaling bullshit and prove you recognize the problems by removing the people responsible. #seaofthieves #rare
