    @SeaOfThieves Yeah never mind the game not working guess that’s not important.

  • Lukathy95 Luke Morris (@Lukathy95) reported

    @AT0MAC @SeaOfThieves The problem with Assasins Creed is its a single player game & I can't get into those for some reason

  • Lukathy95 Luke Morris (@Lukathy95) reported

    @AT0MAC @SeaOfThieves @ubisoftnordic A lot of people have been suggesting many good things as add ons to Arena & for some reason they've took no notice & decided to cut ties with it. To be honest they need to fix what's actually in game before they start adding more stuff in it as its an utter **** show

  • FrostSchneider Liquid Raptor (@FrostSchneider) reported

    When's the last time we got a #SeaofThieves update that DIDN'T come with some serious issue that made the game either really difficult or unplayable? I love this game more than any other I've ever played for a wide range of reasons, but I can't even remember the last time>

  • sstaccwil Stac (@sstaccwil) reported

    @SeaOfThieves #seaofthieves issues with game crashes on pc? was fine then crashed every 2 mins

  • NecrusGod Draak (@NecrusGod) reported

    @GammaIsHere @SeaOfThieves What is the problem that needs to be fix?

  • BerlinDesigner Berlin Designer (@BerlinDesigner) reported

    Been playing a lot of @SeaOfThieves recently! Whilst the game largely entertains I have experienced a huge problem with getting friends to stay invested because of the PvP elements. Investing hours to loose everything can result in players walking away for good....

  • DarbyGlizzy DarkOrder#22 (@DarbyGlizzy) reported

    @SeaOfThieves @RareLtd @GOSHCharity Fix the bugs and now there’s crashing. Nice. This game gets better and better.

  • klay_hive Wiseman Island (@klay_hive) reported

    @jea20014000 @SeaOfThieves Yeah it’s completely broken the game for me. Hopefully the next patch is our very soon because I would like to play

  • DarbyGlizzy DarkOrder#22 (@DarbyGlizzy) reported

    @SoT_Support @SeaOfThieves Do you guys even test your content updates? Or any update? This game has more bugs than it has water. I love doing a whole Athena and then right after I dig it up then we wanna crash 7 times within 10 minutes. And you wonder why no one plays this ****** *** game. Hmm I wonder.

  • RyanGamesYT1 RyxnCloudz (@RyanGamesYT1) reported

    @SoT_Support @SeaOfThieves So can you fix it already?

  • puscalini Captain Pusca (@puscalini) reported

    @SoT_Support @SeaOfThieves While your at it can you fix hit reg? This game is crumbling.

  • TheShapingSick ShapingSickness (@TheShapingSick) reported

    @SoT_Support @SeaOfThieves If you're on PC, putting your graphics on Recommended seems to fix the issue.

  • hsamskluh Ray Liberty (@hsamskluh) reported

    @SoT_Support @SeaOfThieves The issue seems to cascade to players not affected in the last 4 hours......

  • Lukathy95 Luke Morris (@Lukathy95) reported

    @puscalini @SoT_Support @SeaOfThieves Wow hold on a minute... SoT fix hit reg? That has to be the best punchline to a joke ever! Its been rapidly getting worse for the last couple year & nothing gets done

  • DO0UGLASZ Dougsz (@DO0UGLASZ) reported

    @SeaOfThieves After the update on 02/18/21 my game started to crash and crash, I can't play the game anymore.

  • Mrs480 Mrs480 (@Mrs480) reported

    @anarcho_goblin @SoT_Support @SeaOfThieves I had a small windows update that seemed to fix it ... So much time spent troubleshooting that Rare should have tested during QA but whatever

  • Trident_TV1 Just Trident (@Trident_TV1) reported

  • GammaIsHere Gamma (@GammaIsHere) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Been trying for 3 hours to join back on a brig from 6+ hours of playing...it freezes and kicks me to dashboard after a few seconds if joining back. All day grinding for loot I can't turn in. Thank you so much for selling me a broken game, I love it.

  • DarkerCrimson Darker Crimson (@DarkerCrimson) reported

  • SoTCommunity Sea of Thieves Community (@SoTCommunity) reported

    @hunnibunnixo @SeaOfThieves @SoT_Support As far as we have seen, Rare are looking in to this. Unfortunately this happened overnight here in the UK and as Rare are UK based, this might be the cause of a delay in solving this issues.

  • hsamskluh Ray Liberty (@hsamskluh) reported

  • Thatcowboy13 Brice Moody (@Thatcowboy13) reported

    @SoT_Support @SeaOfThieves 5 hours and a game breaking bug? I know you guys are way better than this @RareLtd please fix this for purely cosmetic update? This is unreal, I already dropped real money on the emporium and I can’t even enjoy the game long enough to see it
