kizu! (@yk_kizu) reportedLet’s be real for one minute here. Putting hourglass in SEPARATE SERVERS is one of the easiest solutions to Sea of Thieves’ biggest problems: dead servers. By making this one change, alongside the removal of diving and raid voyages, players can guarantee that a ship they see at the start of a session will still be there even 20 minutes later, unless someone or something gets to them first. As of right now, if I were to join a server, see a Reaper, buy supplies, and go to hunt them down, there is an insanely high chance that said Reaper (or Guild) will be GONE by the time you start sailing. That’s just ridiculous. Get rid of diving, and separate hourglass from the main adventure servers, and see how it improves the livelihood of the seas. #savetheseas #seaofthieves #bemorepirate

Petrified (@petrified98) reported@SeaOfThieves Keep getting a error 10 secs into loading in 😭 i just wanna do custom

JustAPlayer37 (@JustAPlayer37) reported@SeaOfThieves I would go back to playing this game on Steam, But I have to sign in to my Xbox Account to play it and I can't be bothered. That though my Gmail Account. So I might as well get this game for my Xbox Console (Series X) with a different account.

- 𝑨𝒏𝒅𝒓𝒆𝒂 - (@Squizzolo) reported@SeaOfThieves To sum up: "WE ****** up the doubloons for some players, so to not punish them for an error on our side we removed the items from them" and "we hear your feedback, but we don't care" ...Like avoiding to publicly say sorry and the silence for the other things wasn't bad enough

Matt (@Sloopflex) reportedI don’t make a lot of comments about sot issues but it is truly baffling to me how much the SoT community is blowing up right now and Rare is staying silent and dodging it. Action needs to be taken. Do better @SeaOfThieves and you need to FIRE @j0toro

Victor Escamilla (@CallMeViCtoR) reported@Musks_a_cunt @KingHotdogPig @SeaOfThieves you work on the 3rd floor of a 10 floor company building, the problem was on the 3 ofices that are in the corner of the 5th floor, all the building needs to stop working cus of those 3 ofices making the problem?

NoName101 (@noob76052507) reported@FHCarSalesMan @SeaOfThieves true it will, but as content for a season?! that is my issue. :(
-
Horizon (@Horizon2897) reported@fredder6489 @SeaOfThieves I think Sea of Thieves has bigger problems right now than the engine it runs on
-
Rusty (@RussXB1) reported@SeaOfThieves @SoT_Support Honestly tired of the constant excuses and issues. This company has fallen to below mediocre level.

Quimper (@Quimper) reported@AlmtyChcknPoo "We have this problem with #SeaOfThieves as well." - You are obsessed.

MarMar 🔻 (@MarMar_EoD) reported@SeaOfThieves when will you fix the absurd amount of bugs that are plaguing your game?
-
🥶Goozman👿 (@TheGoozman99) reported@SuperRegGuy @SeaOfThieves You mean the glitch thats been out for over a year
-
pxl (@Ge_oag) reported@SeaOfThieves Fixed the problem where Galeones could hourglass que against solo sloops?
-
Aaron (@a_a_r0nn) reported@TormentedTofu @KingHotdogPig @SeaOfThieves "Correction: j0 and shirah have been deleting messages" this was a completely different CM. They CMs are rare employees and their actions reflect those of the company when doing business at work. The issue is larger than it seems despite attempts to minimize
-
GasMaskMan (@GasMaskMan88) reported@RareLtd @SeaOfThieves #Playstation5 #PS5 Your last update completely deleted my years of progress. Everything I owned and all my faction levels have been deleted. On top of that I am forced to re-sign in to my Microsoft account every single time I get on. Why bother playing now?
-
Chaveiro (@chaveiro1234) reported@OzurianArt @SeaOfThieves Yet another live service ******* it up, seems like a permanent trend
-
Nast (@NastPlays) reported@xxMUSHI @5623CieraRaciel @SeaOfThieves ******** you mean "story"? Also the two game modes you talk about, one is PVP, and the other doesn't allow more than one ship on a server at a time, which again, was the crux of my issue. Also, literally none of that actually addressed anything I said.
-
Twitch 8cells (@kbeeznuts) reported@SeaOfThieves @SoT_Support @SoTCommunity i just wanna say to all the people reposting and spreading this thank you so much i can only imagine how many other players recieved false bans and automated support messages i just hope they fix whatever bug this is so it doesnt happen to anyone else
-
ReDЯuM (@MaybeRedrum) reported@xPhoenixFlamezx @SeaOfThieves Yo hello are you ok? i dont even watch ftg but holy cringe karen relax. Teaming is not bannable and if you think it is you are the problem with the game
-
arditobn (@Giovann69642526) reported@SeaOfThieves Guys,but you really can't just end an event three days early because you released it in a broken state .You promise to restore the game to its former glory and I do see plenty of improvements, really a lot but I can't accept a mode that was already out coming back with issues.

Tutones207 (@Tutones207) reported@HitboTC @SeaOfThieves This.....THIS!!!! THIS is why the game is ******* dying! Complete disconnect
-
Matt McKeown (@NicaDeamuS55) reported@SeaOfThieves With every update comes 100s of more bugs and exploits. But hey release new content good job on that. Oh wait the content is broken constantly. But wait you know what will fix broken content....? Wait for it.....more broken content. Absolutely trash you guys need new jobs
-
🥶Goozman👿 (@TheGoozman99) reported@Lotus_Koril @RobertByron23 @SeaOfThieves Still shouldnt fix something thats not broken
-
Valor Omega, Yonko of the Sea of Thieves (@Valor_Omega_SoT) reported@shenanigoon @RareLtd @SeaOfThieves I truly hope so. It's so disheartening to see everything that's happened. Nevermind the lack of trust from the current game issues, this happening has been a major black spot on this game/studio. I still have a sliver of hope left, but frankly I am not holding my breath.
-
Hyp3r K9 11 (@11Hyp3r) reported@MedrusCf @SeaOfThieves Having same problem
-
AboutSelphy (@AboutSelphy) reported@KingHotdogPig @SeaOfThieves @RareLtd I barely play 1 day a week now down from 4. The game is great, but the studio’s actions are unacceptable. Protecting a predator, ignoring red flags, and silencing creators who spoke up is a horrific look for Rare. A corporate PR statement won't fix this. We need real answers. (i hope they will do something besides "We missed the mark)"
