ThiccusKingus (@shadowstring16) reported@MurpheyLives @SeaOfThieves @Rare_Gamer Not calling Murphey a **** btw nor am i gonna say he isnt. But when you clearly knew where **** was going, you are part of the problem expecially in a space where you have kids in.
-
Lynnalia (@LynnaliaTV) reported@fredder6489 @SeaOfThieves Epic does it to "dogfood" their own engine, showing it off and also finding development issues. Considering their scale, that has massive value. Rare has no such incentive, especially when the game already runs so poorly.

- ̗̀Z ̖́- (@Zairin__) reported@Seeker53872832 @SeaOfThieves What did you expect after they said there was a doubloon economy issue, after the last few seasons included a bunch of stuff that sells for doubloons? That's a manufactured issue.
-
Jon (@JoNiScLoSeR) reported@SeaOfThieves Any update on why the Xbox servers have severe lag every-time anyone plays ? Or gonna keep pretending it isn’t a thing 👏🏻
-
Matt McKeown (@NicaDeamuS55) reported@SeaOfThieves Its absolute crap Naked pirate cant put clothes on Gun always in the middle of the screen cant see Grab supplies and only having one of everything. Imagine trying to naval and after every shot grab a Canon ball Its not just some bugs this game is broken for me Zero fun

SickStyle Gaming (@SickstyleG) reported@SeaOfThieves @Minecraft They tried to but cheaters DDoS the server
-
Chaveiro (@chaveiro1234) reported@OzurianArt @SeaOfThieves Yet another live service ******* it up, seems like a permanent trend
-
Squadcast 💡🔥 (@_SquadCast) reported@SeaOfThieves @XBOX A real live service game.
-
Squidkiller8781 (@squidkiller8781) reported@AboutSelphy @SeaOfThieves because loss farming is a strat. As long as there are points awarded for losing, this is going to be an issue. To be clear, i think it IS an issue, loss farming. But your openly flexing on using an exploit to deprive people of something the devs think they deserve. Just stop.
-
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.
-
BarnOwlz (@ImBarnOwlz) reportedCan we get a blunderbuss revert or fix? I promise no one will be mad if you keep it at 90 damage and just revert the spread and range to the old blunder 🙏 @S0nicbob @SeaOfThieves
-
Hasan (@0xHmax) reported@SeaOfThieves @MaxxineJean @IndieGameJoe Trst sales go up just need little modifications and files already there no? And if server costs is problem just make it feature for special edition of sot will cover server costs or even remove indian servers because what happens there is crazy ifyky

Hans (@HansWalter113) reported@SeaOfThieves Server Down? I cant join the Sea.🙄
-
Floidberger (@shenanigoon) reported@Valor_Omega_SoT @RareLtd @SeaOfThieves In a way, I don't want to trust this particular team again. It's a huge letdown and disappointment especially being on the Stream Team and seeing how things "get done." They've dragged *** on too many things and now it's about being honest, open and direct about a serious issue.
-
Fledder (@CalebFerraro) reported@betta_rdr2 @SeaOfThieves What in the broken physic slop is this?
-
Horizon (@Horizon2897) reported@fredder6489 @SeaOfThieves I think Sea of Thieves has bigger problems right now than the engine it runs on
-
Aaron THFC/MTFC (@SpursTHB) reported@SeaOfThieves can you stop the glitching under the map glitch ive had 3 of them today
-
Justmy2cents (@Justmy2cents11) reported@Ri58995851 @SeaOfThieves Ok my bad lol and to tell you the truth. I hate SoT. I will never play another live service game in my life cuz of them. I’m an achievement ***** so I gotta keep everything at 100%. This ****** game keeps forcing me back, wrong tree with that gagging on SoT **** stuff.
-
Copper🔜 SoTFest 2026 Panelist (@Coppertailwolf) reported@coldsot_ @SeaOfThieves I had this bug in insiders- because it was testing I didn’t leave and saw it thro and had people pissed but I was like “literally following through on the testing- the entire purpose of right now” That being said I got the same bug yesterday and scuttled cause I don’t want to win like that XD it’s a very broken bug - you’re untouchable too outside the ring closing in. I imagine a lot of people will do the same in that situation, but unfortunately a lot won’t.
-
almtychcknpoo (@AlmtyChcknPoo) reported@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.
-
Golden Chaser (@ChaserGolden) reported@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.
-
Xo The Sea Fox (@Xoxbit_YT) reported@Valor_Omega_SoT @SeaOfThieves It is simply not acceptable that it happened .. and with past issues its clear, the system has to change
-
Dan Fred (@danfred93) reported@SeaOfThieves How about a fix, that when I try and dive tot he doubloon quest it actually dives, instead of having to cancel after 10 minutes and lose the voyage
-
Professor Trunkerz (@SeaOfTrunkerz) reportedMy 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
-
Lukitch (@Lukitch59) reported@CaptainQuaa @SeaOfThieves Sadly , Shrouded ghost is gatekeep beside a RNG game mechanic and Spawn timer mechanic. Rarity is not the trouble , but how meg spawn is the main issue ... Arround 1h45 to get a single meg .... and only 0.02 % of chance to get the great one.
-
Eli Mayorga (@EliMayorga7) reported@SeaOfThieves You need to ******* fix PVP me and my friend are doing PVP and another ******* sloop that's not doing PVP come over and sinks us. How is this ******* fair when someone else comes over and ruins PVP FIX ******* PVP! @SeaOfThieves
-
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.
-
Notcaringmuch (@notcaringmuch) reported@squidkiller8781 @Dambitt_ @SeaOfThieves well look, cheaters aren't really a big problem now. There were less of them than the actual number of bugs. They made them "grind" to be able to play Hourglass, so most risks their main profile in the process or completely given up on playing with those. (Yes on PC)
-
Artist of Thieves (@ArtistofThieves) reported@fraudatori @Dambitt_ @SeaOfThieves Sure the game has many problems, im not disagreeing on that regard. But just because another game has a pirate theme, doesnt mean it can replace sot gameplaywise. These other games just arent for me, as they cant replace what i like on sot.
