    @SeaOfThieves Please for the love of God, fix your buggy game. I've literally never experienced more game breaking bugs any other time than during bilgerats weekend.

    @ManVsMiniatures @SeaOfThieves Its written by their legal team not rare. They know how to phrase stuff without getting into more trouble. While I do agree, law wise their respond is sadly the only correct way.

    @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.

    @supermariopla11 @SeaOfThieves That's...that's not what's causing server performance to suck. Like at all. Preventing expansion of the game, maybe. But not server issues. If anything, high end PCs with uncapped FPS and/or max graphics cause more server strain. But even that isn't the underlying issue.

    @Lym0nade @RealLifeWookie @SeaOfThieves Again you can keep bringing these " numbers " Idgaf, I don't believe 250k people did login last month, to play play SOT. I just don't see it, Windrose out? so many other games too, yeah this is bs numbers. Not to be mean, I just dont believe these made up numbers.

    @SeaOfThieves One of the major issues with this event is the lack of frequency combined with the inability to earn doubloons almost at all now in between these weekends. The cap of 3 voyage completions before it gives gold is lame as well. Also server performance was TERRIBLE (fireworks?)

    @Xbox @Mr_Dishyy Can’t wait to hide @SeaOfThieves and the broken achievements…

    @KBoldZiel @SeaOfThieves What a shocker, SoT released yet another THIRD OF A SEASON AFTER DELAYS and it's broken. Can't protect their community, can't code their game, can't do anything but dump more things into Emporium. This game used to be so much better.

    @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.

    @SeaOfThieves In June? Wow, it is very hard to earn enough. I don't have a problem in theory (capping at 3 is sensible to avoid the same problem the reset had to fix), but I don't agree with the items being temporary stock as a result. Doing everything and a few emergent chests, I have 1500.

  • Nemesis2K
    ꩜ Dreamcast Forever (@Nemesis2K) reported

    Last 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 30+ 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 trying. The streak/curse has been broken, It was a good run. Now, back to Forza Horizon 6.

    @SeaOfThieves You really have trouble reading the "vibe check," don't ya? Christ. I understand needing to move forward at some point, but come on. At least let us see these "noticeable changes" first. Now, I think that was just a load of feel-good nonsense.

    @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

  • sharpywesley
    Andrew Sharp (@sharpywesley) reported

    @SeaOfThieves What an absolute shambles this once great and noble game has become. And to the people in the comments saying “never mind, take your time” - demand more than this continuously piss poor service.

    @SeaOfThieves Stop pushing the problems away Rare, you guys are making it so much worse for urself

  • BlueFieldAbove
    Blue Field Above (@BlueFieldAbove) reported

    @SeaOfThieves You reset my doubloons. I am struggling to find out why you think that means I would want to return to the game? Can anybody on the dev team explain that to me? Why would I slog through your broken matchmaking system and buggy servers just to earn what I had, back?

    My last LSS match had 2 airborne boats & one that never surfaced. Emerging from under water looks cool, but seems to cause more issues in this game mode. @SeaOfThieves #SeaOfThieves

    @surivSHANKS @ITZH4ZARD @SeaOfThieves The problem is not the orange association box, its the purple confirmed cheater box. No idea how they got that information though.

    Venom (@VenomousSloth7) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Is Custom Seas gonna make regular server feel even more dead? Are hackers gonna be able to access it and crash it so that larger streamers cant even play it? Is it gonna be a buggy mess like the game is? 🤔

    @fraudatori @SeaOfThieves I am lost, are you agreeing that you have to login and play, or disagreeing? Because either way you have to log in and play to be on the ledgers, that is an irrefutable fact. Nowhere have your screenshots proved your initial argument that you're automatically on the ledger

    @WazzaC92 @SoT_Support @SeaOfThieves Was it bad this glitch happend in the first place? Yes. But no one was stopping you from doing said voyages anyways. As they stated, those coins would've been added to your wallet.

    @myweeweetinybro @SeaOfThieves Also much of my plight with CM was addressing the ban problems, which is still a problem. Blocking us for a negative opinion is bullocks.
