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

    @Musks_a_cunt @KingHotdogPig @SeaOfThieves I'm not saying they handle everything correctly right now, but that's just how companies work. Also, putting "their people" on public prangers could get them into legal issues too, which might be the main reason for them to do it "behind the scenes" in the first place.

    @HitboTC @SeaOfThieves This is so bad. Almost as bad as when I was attacked for giving feedback in Alpha when the rainbow flag was put in the game. I thought it would cause issues for a game I loved, and it has. (That was a private forum) Yet it was shared all over Twitter and I was attacked brutally.

    @SpinalCrush @DannyLumber1 @SeaOfThieves People like you are part of the problem. Blocking someone for hitting you with facts. You're an absolute creep. Time to grow up! Block me too, I'll not engage with a ***** protector like yourself. Just telling you it straight.

    @SeaOfThieves Hopefully if the supply issue drops, which impedes competitive creation, we get the option to at least “add captaincy” supplies we can just spam to stock boats.

    @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

    @shanksy32 @SeaOfThieves Bonecalles were essentially a win button on solo sloopers and a huge problem on duo sloop. This has nothing to do with skill issue, they were just unbalanced, especially if you don't like playing the sword.

    @SeaOfThieves @RareLtd This game has become nothing more than a broken beta test. Absolute trash, unplayable.

    Custom Seas is going to be a lot of fun. It feels like it's been designed more with content creators in mind than the average player but I think most people will still get a good laugh out of it and create some memorable moments. The problem is that fun side content and seasonal content are not really the same thing. If this is supposed to help carry an entire Season alongside the occasional returning limited time event then it just is not enough by itself. Season 21 needs to land with some real weight behind it. Adventure Mode needs meaningful additions. New ships, new islands or even entirely new regions. Give players fresh reasons to explore the world and engage with the game in different ways. What we do not need is another couple of delivery missions wearing a fancy new outfit and pretending to be a major update. We have been sailing that particular route for quite a while now. #SeaOfThieves is at its best when it surprises people and gets the community genuinely excited to jump in and see what is new. It feels like it is time for that again. Anything less will mean terrible engagement.

    @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.

    @CptStepFalcon @Lukitch59 @SeaOfThieves Devs can say whatever they want but practically Insider is just a beta test and not the definive version of the game. They don't know what it can be broken by adding/changing some things.

    @SeaOfThieves •“After besting their rivals to become the Last Ship Standing, winners are now given additional time to collect their spoils and head to the final portal.” Nope this is not working still, I didn’t get time to turn the ship to harpoon the flag before I got transported back!

    @KingHotdogPig @SeaOfThieves No, you are right. None of us should be asking partners to stand down. I am allowed to choose whose content I want to support as a result. The problem is that these things have been going on for years at this point. It could have been prevented if Rare stepped in and stopped CM a long time ago. Rare is 100% accountable for who they have representing their game. CM are representatives. I ain't gonna force anyone to step down or take a stand, but if it appears that someone is trying to leverage a charity stream to boost their numbers and appear as a good person, for a charity that doesn't actively help OUR victims, I'm unfollowing them. If they are the least bit fake, I'm unfollowing. That's my choice and no ones gonna miss me around...so the decision is most likely mutual anyways. I absolutely do want to see a bigger push though and nothing is going to change without it. Hell, some streamers haven't mentioned it but they have been streaming other games lately...silently protesting already despite making a statement. Kudos to them.

    @SeaOfThieves The fact that the game is this old and you guys still can't figure out how to release an update says something about the dev team. If I was this bad at my job, I definitely wouldn't have 19 seasons to fix it

    @SeaOfThieves Player that has played since day 1 here,✋ Horrible experience. Hopped back to test the event and new doubloon system. Doubloons not coming through, servers lagging like hell on last ship standing (ships flying, long waiting time...) Please, I love the game, fix something🙏

  • LynnaliaTV
    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.

    @BocaG @Christi19879853 @SeaOfThieves It would literally hurt no one to make safer seas the full experience or just having private severs. They say its PvP game but the PvP aspect is whats the problem. Outside of janky hit boxes, there's no natural progress in skill when it comes to PVP. Thr gap is huge.

    @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.

  • NastPlays
    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.

    @NessieDoes @SeaOfThieves @j0toro Since someone in a Bruno Files video is asking me to send proof of them knowing “everything”, I will clarify with this: When I said “they knew everything for a long time” I was alluding to the pig incident when I said that, which they did know about and deflected by turning their eyes away from it. The linked image below is a direct reference of proof for that. And by “they”, or “Employees” I mean Shirah and J0toro who are employed Community Managers working for Sea Of Thieves who were doing nothing about this issue, yet still endorsed and promoted Bruno

    @MurpheyLives @SeaOfThieves @Rare_Gamer This is the worst possible statement you could make. "Clear his name"??? It is OVER. There is nothing to clear. The best you could've done is apologizing for your poor judgment, but considering you were part of that disgusting joke a year ago, I guess you regret nothing. It's not a problem that people like that lose the community. The problem is that they did NOT lose it for the first obvious signs. Goodbye.

    @ManVsMiniatures @Rare @SeaOfThieves I mean... slurs are pretty mean, and The legit only problem with your hunt for pedos is that nobody's gonna believe you if you are just gonna accuse everyone of one. If slimeypigeon is one, then you were right, if not, you just slandered someone innocent for no reason.
