  • sulleyboat Sulleyboat (@sulleyboat) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Can we fix some glitches before we add more stuff please?

  • ph0enix75 ThyPhoenixTTV (@ph0enix75) reported

    @johnson_paden @SeaOfThieves Yeah just checked twitter to see if anyone else was having a problem

  • JoysawSoT Joysaw (@JoysawSoT) reported

    @BetterBhvr @SeaOfThieves progress Pirate Milestones on your friends' ships. The two are separated so that you can only show-off ship banners and titles with the ship you did the corresponding task on. This is logical, and there's no problem with it for me.

  • hardway_jones Hardway “Dishonourable Tweeter” Jones (@hardway_jones) reported

    @SeaOfThieves MORE MONEY MORE PROBLEMS, AIN’T NOTHIN NEW

  • 1Chenzo Chenzo (@1Chenzo) reported

    @cardinaleye92 @deathwish11120 @SeaOfThieves ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I'm sure this was a conscious decision cause people will cheese the system and they want to de-cheese as much. I mean, how often are you losing your captain? Seems a minor issue to me. You'd have to switch boats to compensate for the missing pirate anyway?

  • Treefittytwo Monkey Monkey (@Treefittytwo) reported

    @SeaOfThieves 6 ships? Also the trinkets lag the game bad. Can we get a setting to turn them off?

  • TYLV13 𝐓𝐘🜏🃏 (@TYLV13) reported

    Anyone else having issues with the @SeaOfThieves servers rn?

  • JoysawSoT Joysaw (@JoysawSoT) reported

    @TYLV13 @BetterBhvr @SeaOfThieves You can get AC from the free pass now, so it's not even RNG now. Interesting how the Plunderpass costs AC as well but somehow that's not a problem. MS / Xbox also charges money for changing your GT, and unlike in SOT, that can only be pasid in real money

  • Scooter23734149 Scooter (@Scooter23734149) reported

    @SeaOfThieves I bought a galleon, named it, and even completed the tutorial but it won’t let me buy another ship, it charged me for the galleon but says as if I haven’t payed for it yet, I even dismantled it and the problem remains, can you please help me fix it?

  • HeyMilku Milky (@HeyMilku) reported

    Anyone else have the problem that here and there your captained ship returns to its default skin when logging in? Any solution? Not really feeling like spending 50k to put stuff back on every time if it’s not staying on 🙈 #SeaOfThieves

  • AdrianHare2 Adrian Hare (@AdrianHare2) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Please fix your game

  • A_Hardwick93 Ashley Hardwick (@A_Hardwick93) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Ship Log/ Ship inventory etc is not loading most of the time, I need to close and open about 3-4 times before it works. Is this just happening to me or is anyone else having this problem? 🤔 #SeaOfThieves

  • CaptDreadsea3rd CaptDreadsea3rd 🍌BananaBois🍌 (@CaptDreadsea3rd) reported

    @Lukathy95 @SeaOfThieves I know, and I don't want to complain (much). The weird loading text glitch was there before thursday though and I haven't read about any problems so far and just wanted to know whether there is something unusualy wrong on my end. I was just worried.

  • R2Rillo R2DTwo (@R2Rillo) reported

    @SeaOfThieves I have a problem. The saved items on my ship are gone, but the scars remain. Plus all the progress I've made these days hasn't been recorded. Has anyone else had those problems?

  • Arteymiz Artemis (@Arteymiz) reported

    @ChichaxMorada @SeaOfThieves We never even left the outpost is my problem. It was a veil voyage that I had bought while we were getting stocked up. It’s ridiculous that I have to worry that voyages I haven’t started I’m going to lose gold over now

  • AdrianHare2 Adrian Hare (@AdrianHare2) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Hurry up and fix the game

  • DoodleMan149 DoodleMan149 (@DoodleMan149) reported

    @YooKaydw @SeaOfThieves @Captain_Falcore This never be a problem with me crew, there's a reason it be ME crew, I'm the captain ⚓

  • Brandon54494040 Mirrors Cut (@Brandon54494040) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Nothing is working properly. I spent 12 hours of my day off getting milestones and upgrading my ship for everything to reset today. I spent at least 300k yesterday and everything is reset. I also am missing about 21k gold because turning in Athena is broken. Fix PLZ

  • MartineXIII MartineXIII: Fan of Warrior of Light and Iron Man (@MartineXIII) reported

    Tweeted to the #SeaOfThieves Support and then got smart and clicked the Known Issues... I'm sooooooooooooo SMORT 🤪

  • pennedbyandy Initiate. Cyberhex. Eliminate Threat. (@pennedbyandy) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Fix it 😭

  • Brandon54494040 Mirrors Cut (@Brandon54494040) reported

    @SeaOfThieves this game is falling apart now we cant even load our ships in. Can anybody acknowledge the problems going on. Your subreddit is on fire.

  • BBT_23 Bobo23 (@BBT_23) reported

    @SeaOfThieves 4 months, update delayed... For what ? No real new gameplay content, and everything is broken. At least fix the game.

  • JamesOuroboros James Ouroboros #BLM (@JamesOuroboros) reported

    @ActivistGamer @SeaOfThieves They've even said the reason they're not doing more PvP updates rn is because of server issues like lag and hitreg, and that once that's sorted they're going to be redoing PvP balance, because it's a *core part of the game*.

  • ThomasLasky33 Thomas Lasky (@ThomasLasky33) reported

    @SeaOfThieves we like when the servers work ! since few hours we sell, no gold... no reputation... and more issues... in EU

  • Rob_Drowsy Rob himself (@Rob_Drowsy) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Thats great and all but I've come across a problem with the captaincy update. I looked really hard but there doesn't seem to be a bard for hire to play any shantie with any instrument whilst I take care of the ship. If you can get on that for me please that would be great

  • JamesOuroboros James Ouroboros #BLM (@JamesOuroboros) reported

    @ActivistGamer @SeaOfThieves They fixed an issue as old as the game itself with the respawn timer, so I wouldn't be shocked. They're even going so far as to testing hitscan to see if that would fix the problems while also keeping a similar feel.

  • 1Chenzo Chenzo (@1Chenzo) reported

    @cardinaleye92 @deathwish11120 @SeaOfThieves It's so people can't get a server alliance and stack FotD's and just swap out boats. It sucks, I understand, but... gonna have to just load a new session. Also, I think, currently, the captain voyages are bugged. They'll fix that soon enough.

  • broosin__ Broosin (@broosin__) reported

    @SeaOfThieves my whole captain ship got erased all the saved cosmetics and milestones, so pretty much it just grabbed my money, any possibility for a fix?

  • 1Chenzo Chenzo (@1Chenzo) reported

    @Arteymiz @ChichaxMorada @SeaOfThieves do you recall if it was the shipwreck graveyard? we should let them know so they can try to reproduce it. (and then fix is.)

  • Fare_Thee_Well_ Fare Thee Well (@Fare_Thee_Well_) reported

    @TheYammyOfc @SeaOfThieves I think the main problem with these as opposed to commendations, is that commendations have a reasonable end goal. Each one can be a fun checklist, or slower grind for less completion oriented players. These are just the latter, and don't take those who target them into account.
