    @SeaOfThieves You guys gonna fix the cheater problem or just keep posting stupid **** about lore on Twitter?

  • TheOG1nger TheOGinger 👌 (@TheOG1nger) reported

    Im out here trying to grind for the Skeleton curse on my days off from work and every single game Im running into cheaters, the cheating issue in @SeaOfThieves is so mental right now and I can say I currently hate this game that I have loved for so long! Plz fix this!

  • FoodsYoshy YoshyFoods (@FoodsYoshy) reported

    @carlashnikovh @SeaOfThieves @SoT_Support I’ve already dropped the game, as I have unfortunately never had fun with the PVP (i sucked), seemingly always had connection issues, and with fishing, my last bastion of fun, I had grinded it all away. Nothing much left to look forward to (not to mention friends burned out too)

  • SlayDoom Dylan A. James (@SlayDoom) reported

    @SmokeBeardTV @SeaOfThieves Hackers have always been in the game. Merely having encountered hackers doesn't mean you know its a common issue just as me never encounting them doesn't mean the reverse is true. It's hard to be accurate about such a thing and mostly it reflects one's personal belief.

    @EddieThe_Bear @RealLifeWookie @SeaOfThieves Our first 2 constellations were in the wrong spot in the sky so literally no matter where you stood it wouldn't line up. It was frustrating doing exactly what we were supposed to do and it just not working lol

  • KevinStaley3 Kevin Staley (@KevinStaley3) reported

    @SeaOfThieves This game is unplayable in its current state. Free cheats are rampant and servers are filled with them. First season I have ever had this problem. Uninstalled

  • emperor_nashy NBAREAPERBOY 🦈 (@emperor_nashy) reported

    @SeaOfThieves ratio + fix your game and the hacking

  • ActivistGamer ℤ𝕠𝕞𝕓𝕚𝔾𝕣𝕚𝕞 (@ActivistGamer) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Fix your cheating problem

  • SAM58654303 NPL (@SAM58654303) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Fix your servers

  • Morcath Morcath (@Morcath) reported

    @gosfather @SeaOfThieves If they end up doing that, I really hope they reduce their value to half. Kinda like when you recover your broken emissary flag and return it to the faction you were representing. This game has such a dense and well-built lore, it'd be a pity to modify it much

  • Sn1pezALot Sn1pezALot (@Sn1pezALot) reported

    @UltimateX12_ @SeaOfThieves I’ve had this problem for forever

  • Debi0072 Debi007 (@Debi0072) reported

    In the 4 years I've played @SeaOfThieves NEVER have i come across hackers/cheaters but this **** needs to be addressed @RareLtd I've been flipped, killed by 4 on a sloop dive and I for 1 will NOT be playing pvp OR Pve till fix, bye bye sot

  • michaeljellema1 Michael Jellema (@michaeljellema1) reported

    @Falcon59875668 @requester47 @SeaOfThieves Do you know what a private server is. 99.9% of pvpve games have them. All those random things they said are irrelevant. There are no issues when you lock the server youre on by putting loot on shores of gold. There would be none playing by yourself in a private server bozo

  • OlerbiaSTRM 🏴‍☠️ Olerbia Streams 🏴‍☠️ (@OlerbiaSTRM) reported

    @PapaJuggernaut1 @RareLtd @SeaOfThieves Though they're good at the short term solutions; I hope they work on a long term solution for this growing problem. Good on them for taking action!

    @PirusVr @asylumgc8 @SeaOfThieves I just thought we're expecting SoT to fix this.....Hell they can't even fix hit reg

  • NowellsySNR 🏴‍☠️One Mad Zo♏️1e🏴‍☠️ (@NowellsySNR) reported

    @Wermux @SeaOfThieves I had someone teleport on my ship first time I’ve encountered a cheater, but from the sound of things from the community it getting out of hand! @RareLtd need to fix this ASAP!!

  • Lorenz_Sinclair Lorenz Sinclair (@Lorenz_Sinclair) reported

    @JRRTokiin @SeaOfThieves @SoT_Support what's the problem

  • Fafferdaffy Fafferdaffy 🆖 (@Fafferdaffy) reported

    @GilliamSteiner @SeaOfThieves I've had this problem since the last update rolled out last week. I submitted a bug report a few days ago, and the response I got from them today didn't make it seem like they were able to replicate it. I'm gonna try and reinstall my game at some point, cus this blows.

  • Invalid_user___ E̸͟͞R̸͟͞R̸͟͞O̸͟͞R̸͟͞404 (@Invalid_user___) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Your game has a cheating problem

  • Equaldime Equaldime (@Equaldime) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Fix ur game (reg)

  • Atlas_Benji Ben (@Atlas_Benji) reported

    @RareLtd how is that fair to be playing @SeaOfThieves on a 6-win streak with over 2000+ cannon ***** and resources out the booty just to get “marble bearded” where my crew and i completely lose all of our flags and progress because of this issue. please explain.

  • Stiixgirl Kira (@Stiixgirl) reported

    @Zoe91107348Zoe @SeaOfThieves Finally someone said it! Why haven’t they said anything about this? It’s beyond annoying as a solo player, you can’t even use tbe harpoon to get the loot from the water if dropped off boat! The boat acts like an invisible wall. Fix your game @RareLtd

  • DeadOmaticC Balázs Fleischer (@DeadOmaticC) reported

    @SeaOfThieves that look by the Dev at the end is entirely justified. I wonder tho if he knew that with the fix they broke the harpoons at the sovereigns

  • ActivistGamer ℤ𝕠𝕞𝕓𝕚𝔾𝕣𝕚𝕞 (@ActivistGamer) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Thats great. Fix your cheating problem

  • Equaldime Equaldime (@Equaldime) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Fix hit reg your game will die soon if you don't start giving a ****, look for yourself you have almost no players compared to the 2019-2020 era

  • Zoe91107348Zoe Zoe (@Zoe91107348Zoe) reported

    @SeaOfThieves The trade we made was this price being reduced for harpoons being screwed over with a glitch

  • kevinv190295 Kevichkovil (@kevinv190295) reported

    A shame to see this great game losing it player base because of this cheater problem.(5/5) #SeaOfThieves

  • Blissedrated 𝓡𝓲𝓱𝓪𝓷𝓷𝓪𝓼 𝓶𝓪𝓷𝓪𝓰𝓮𝓻 🇦🇷 (@Blissedrated) reported

    @SeaOfThieves I just switched pirates and when I tried to sail on my own ship that I bought, it says “couldn’t load ships” and when I try to go to the plunder pass it says seasonal progress unavailable” what can I do to fix it ?

  • plursingus mike ehrmantraut (@plursingus) reported

    @SeaOfThieves fix your ******* skill based matchmaking lol

  • TheOG1nger TheOGinger 👌 (@TheOG1nger) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Alongside the hacking Issues, the hit reg and food reg issue seems to be worse than ever at the same time so it just leads to an awful experience! GG RARE, GG!
