    @osamaqamar_ @SeaOfThieves The little people doing the banning feel really big. The problem is that they don't know how to interact.. so they just ban

  • Valor_Omega_SoT Captain Valor Omega, The Researcher (@Valor_Omega_SoT) reported

    @BeardBerserk @SeaOfThieves It is rather difficult to nail the scale of some of the islands, I had a bunch of trial and error while making the base island for Plunder, as well. It's not 100% to scale, either, but I made it as close as I could! :)

  • awildbonkkuu BONKKUU (@awildbonkkuu) reported

    So...I've seen people have problems with missing freckles or spots on their character...some hair dyes remove those spots but other hair dyes don't. I don't use my characters natural hair color so it removes his spots but when I dyed it red they were there :) #SeaOfThieves

    @SeaOfThieves Okay but when tf are you people going to ban the schmuck that I reported and yell preach about how you care about the toxic behavior but do nothing. There's video, voice bubble in the video, fix this ****. People kill themselves from be talked to the way I was. Fix your ****.

  • andreasspindle2 RedHarlock (@andreasspindle2) reported

    @RaineVondrake @SeaOfThieves There is sometimes a bug where your pirate loads in missing some features such as scars or freckles Restarting the game should fix it. This is from my experience.

  • digital_firefly Danny (@digital_firefly) reported

    @HLariash @SeaOfThieves Nah Duke's just a poor misguided fool. He just needs a good smack from Larinna to make him realize the error of his ways.

  • Lukathy95 Luke Morris (@Lukathy95) reported

    @minerofeliz_ @BeardBerserk @SeaOfThieves But the ferryman... a control freak trapping souls for all eternity to a continuous loop of dying & coming back to the SoT 👀 Not much better if anything maybe worse. Davy Jones corrupted his purpose out of a broken heart but him was a man... a man in love

  • Chaorie2 Chaorie (TeamFlameheart) (@Chaorie2) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Dead pirates, an accursed vanguard, a broken ghost and the will of the flame.

  • ebjonas97 SaltRageJoe (@ebjonas97) reported

    @Hitbotc @SeaOfThieves That's my problem, actually have no idea, because all the names I would imagine sounds boring :D

  • PhantomRoy7 PhantomRoy (@PhantomRoy7) reported

    @SeaOfThieves While you’re at it fix legend of the veil. Soul flame captain doesn’t drop any loot anymore.

  • RaginCajun928 RaginCajun928 (@RaginCajun928) reported

    @SeaOfThieves This game is ina bad broken state since last update. Constant crashing and beard dc’s. Also Belle veil quest is broke. Boss doesn’t drop loot.

  • CaptainViserion Captain Viserion | The Fallen Ferryman (@CaptainViserion) reported

    @RaineVondrake @SeaOfThieves Omg I had this same bug! My pirate had freckles when I got her and she no longer has them. Interesting I’m not the only one who’s having this problem.

  • PixxyDoll Pixxy Doll (@PixxyDoll) reported

    Second time doing the Legend of the Veil voyage since the recent update. No loot dropped from the Soulflame Captain. Has the loot been patched out or is it a glitch? @SeaOfThieves @SoT_Support

  • HedonistPrince Camtono Contents Considered (@HedonistPrince) reported

    @Irid0n @SeaOfThieves Most pirates ****** around at some point. It's the military people who got in trouble for it.

  • CaptainBrian404 CaptainBrian (@CaptainBrian404) reported

    @MaikelMcGiver @Southwardfaun @SeaOfThieves I do not have this issue with Win11, however I did encounter similar whilst on Win10 & it turned out to be driver-related. Try using some older (/more stable) drivers on Win11, as I'm aware there is still some issues with some driver combos. Much luck!

  • EdyHassle Edy Hassle (@EdyHassle) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Y’all add everything else yet fail to fix your game crashing or the long *** black screens. Never played a game with servers down as much as sot.

  • Southwardfaun Southwardfaun (@Southwardfaun) reported

    @MaikelMcGiver @SeaOfThieves I would still completely remove drivers and reinstall them from the ground up. That's assuming that the old drivers were present when the os was changed. But idk I'm no pro. I've had problems that were fixed by removing all drivers and trying again.

    @RaineVondrake @SeaOfThieves That's weird! My characters still has theirs. Have you tried contacting support? Might be an error!
