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

  • Barbapicola Barbapicola 🇪🇺 🇪🇸 (@Barbapicola) reported

    @Cthulhe_ @SeaOfThieves Regarding the second issue... Excuse me if I differ from your boyfriend's opinion. Parents invest a lot of time and effort to choose their children's names and that choice is always made with love. That is why we should wear our first and last names with pride and write and (...)

  • 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

  • Snackiecat Fel And Friends (@Snackiecat) reported

    @webbay_ @JoltGanda @SeaOfThieves What is your problem? You're commenting on different peoples. Are you the authority? Do we all have to run our ships by you?

  • 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.

  • Jtwitt2 Jonathan Turner (@Jtwitt2) reported

    @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

  • 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.

  • xtwiztidjayx X TwiZtiD Jay X (@xtwiztidjayx) reported

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

  • 1989Jobe Jobe 1989 (@1989Jobe) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Fix the your stupid sea of Trolls!

  • internetdumb_ internetdumb (@internetdumb_) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Please for the love of God, add a Character Customization Option in the IPG. I don't want to be an overweight granny with teeth problems.

    @DreamR58 @DaggyLive @SeaOfThieves I don’t know how a software company operates or how to code…but I would assume that those working on “new” content are not the same people that work on bug fixes, esp long standing bugs/issues like hitreg…

  • MRedeyes9 MrRedeyes19 (@MRedeyes9) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Broken promises delayed again shall I go on

  • MRedeyes9 MrRedeyes19 (@MRedeyes9) reported

    @SeaOfThieves The delayed mess or the broken promise should be the rare teams ship name

  • Barbapicola Barbapicola 🇪🇺 🇪🇸 (@Barbapicola) reported

    @Cthulhe_ @SeaOfThieves (...) pronounce them as they should. It is part of your identity. If english people cannot pronounce or write it, well... it is not your problem. I am a little embarrassed because it is not a matter of my concern and I do not wish to interfere or cause you discomfort with this.

  • 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.

  • CMPUNKNEXUS100 Number 1 (@CMPUNKNEXUS100) reported

    Please fix your game Rare, sick and tired of your game constantly crashing. @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?

  • Masokista93 Masokista (@Masokista93) reported

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