Sea of Thieves Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • CursedRogue_ Matt (@CursedRogue_) reported

    @helloieatchild @RareLtd @SeaOfThieves You are free to PvP all you want. Cheating is cheating. If you don’t like the game then don’t play it? I’m not against PvP and do it myself. Using literal cheats is the issue. Like I said in my tweet it is a sandbox game so PvP all you want. Cheating and toxicity is the issue

  • jin_marq jin_marq (@jin_marq) reported

    @VxIxBxExS @SeaOfThieves Message @antiticol now to fix your account immediately

  • JFreaks17 JokerFreaks17 (@JFreaks17) reported

    @SeaOfThieves fix your servers the lag and delay is terrible and hit reg is horrendous

  • 99Bottles0fRum Bottle0fRum (@99Bottles0fRum) reported

    @betta_rdr2 @SeaOfThieves They only fix the fun glitches :( bring back the skelly dig glitch!!!

  • AIshizai Butts (@AIshizai) reported

    @SeaOfThieves ESP bots in a broken game

  • SOT_Shiptalk Ship Talk (@SOT_Shiptalk) reported

    @WyvernKh @SeaOfThieves Not to call you out, but I think that that's really problematic and you highlight and important issue. Is this a game open to everyone and all players get the same experience when they log in? Or is player experience going to be based on community participation?

  • RaginCajun928 RaginCajun928 (@RaginCajun928) reported

    @SeaOfThieves The servers are awful lately. What is going on with all the lag?

  • helloieatchild I Eat Children (@helloieatchild) reported

    @CursedRogue_ @RareLtd @SeaOfThieves Alliance servers. Rare’s ignored this issue since Cursed Sails and now nothing means anything. PvP is true bragging rights. With Arena gone I don’t want to camp the worst players in the game. If they were filtered out with their own servers I’d have less of a chance (3/?)

    @XboxSupport This is starting to piss me off. My husband and I get two whole days off together. I can't play a game pass game (@SeaOfThieves ) it says the owner needs to sign in....

  • C_Glisson Icon (@C_Glisson) reported

    @SeaOfThieves fix your game before you start adding new features

  • ThatGuyFrostyy Frosty (@ThatGuyFrostyy) reported

    @Compu_Chris @JustinHesson2 @SeaOfThieves I've done the shrouded ghost like 4 times and I had zero issue finding a 5th, takes 20-30 mins at most

  • helloieatchild I Eat Children (@helloieatchild) reported

    @CursedRogue_ @RareLtd @SeaOfThieves Cheating and toxicity is an issue. How Rare deals with both is sloppy and lazy. For example there is no “client sided” anti-cheat which is why thousands of players (yes, thousands) use free cheats from UnknownCheats. Four years of doing nothing is all Rare’s done. (1/?)

  • MiSSRENEENiCOLE ☆Renee Nicole☆︻╦╤─ (@MiSSRENEENiCOLE) reported from Longview, Washington

    @XboxSupport @SeaOfThieves However on the other Xbox two feet away from me my husband who I game share with can get on no problems at all -_-. Over 30 hours of this crap. GET THE DAMN THING FIXED

  • petey043 Skeeter (@petey043) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Fix your ******* game

  • ShyTedim TedimShy (@ShyTedim) reported

    @azuldimeter @SeaOfThieves @Xbox Working just fine here. Maybe a console issue?

  • TheRealThorcast AtT | Thorcast 🌐 (@TheRealThorcast) reported

    @RareLtd @SeaOfThieves please add a confirmation to tall tales if you already have a voyage open. I was fast selling to the pirate lord and accidentally voted on the shroudbreaker. as i was solo it cancelled my Legend voyage :( not a problem if you have a crew. #pleasefixthis

  • skiesdofall Maeve (@skiesdofall) reported

    @SeaOfThieves I just purchased something in the store and it came up with an error but it took away all of my coins and took money out of my bank account

  • KCBeTaken Lord Whisperr (@KCBeTaken) reported

    xCloud on Xbone not working? #XboxGamePass @XboxSupport it wont launch #SeaOfThieves for some reason.

  • FartMstrFlex Adrian (@FartMstrFlex) reported

    @Xbox Is the @Xbox servers down???? I wanna play @SeaOfThieves

  • helloieatchild I Eat Children (@helloieatchild) reported

    @Lolirotve @SeaOfThieves He blundered then sniped you and you only hit him three times in this clip. Also this sounds like a bad cause of hit registration issues. You got Rare’d and out skilled silly sword lord.

  • Shinobi_Papa Shinobi (@Shinobi_Papa) reported

    I haven’t streamed in over 6 months due to not knowing what to stream and dealing with some mental issues. Today at 5pm EST I will be streaming some @SeaOfThieves, who knows what adventures we get into today. Hope to see you there!

  • Real_Joako LuciferusSon💀 (@Real_Joako) reported

    @SeaOfThieves I think I found a bug in the game, if you spam play the ship's bell at the same time you spam block with the sword, the game takes you out of the game and shows you the legend that there is an error with the server and that it is not available in right now

  • BrendenStokkel1 MOB_xGAMERx (@BrendenStokkel1) reported

    @SeaOfThieves DO NOT LOWER YOUR ANCHOR!!! Just raise your sails and your boat will slow to a stop! If you think you will crash then anchor but if you are going onto an island or are just gonna sit there, ALWAYS re-raise the anchor after dropping it.

  • LeibeeJustin Masked Hero Lucky (@LeibeeJustin) reported

    @SeaOfThieves I went to the killer whale, couldn’t continue the adventure, met two players on a sloop, one of which kept trying to kill me, I left to pick up the adventure again hoping to fix the bug, came back and got killed by some degenerate reapers camping it. Good content.

  • ImWetShelly WetShelly 🇺🇦 (@ImWetShelly) reported

    @SeaOfThieves I pvp out of mind no issues barely ever sink first time doing shouded deep flameheart ships crapped on us after getting double bit by the ghost and we sink uggg. There is always a bigger fish to keep you humble.

  • RiceNPeaRoy RiceNPeaRoy (@RiceNPeaRoy) reported

    You can only fix one... but the fix is perfect. #SeaOfThieves

  • Williamaccurate Williams Jordan (@Williamaccurate) reported

    @VxIxBxExS @SeaOfThieves I can refer you to "Jeff Anderson" a professional who has connections with Gmail he can help you resolve any account issues you're facing, including problems accessing your account. You can contact him on Instagram, with his username; (@nutcrack_tech)

  • helloieatchild I Eat Children (@helloieatchild) reported

    @CursedRogue_ @RareLtd @SeaOfThieves Toxicity is an issue but it only gets worse when you ban. I don’t understand to this day why Rare doesn’t just have mute bans instead of account. Every game ever does this but SoT. All you’re doing is poking the bear. They lose their hundreds of hours on an already (4/?)

  • joshy41233 Joshy41233 (@joshy41233) reported

    @L1l_Drippie @SeaOfThieves Check your game is up to date, if not load the game, sign out and back in and that should fix it
