    @KingHotdogPig @RareLtd @SeaOfThieves Changing your profile picture and adding Star Citizen as a replacement game for Sot, hahaha. No one said Sot's conditions are great; in fact, S20 and up should have zero errors. But it doesn't do you credit to behave like this.

    @SeaOfThieves Still a broken game. Go figure.

    @aDreamingNomad @SuperRegGuy @SeaOfThieves ...so long that I used PayPal refund service as the eligibility was running out (and you could literally no longer contact the store).

    @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.

    @ToodleJerr3196 @RareLtd @SeaOfThieves Absolutely agree. Even with the actual game issues currently, I still have some hope for a future. But it's going to be very hard to trust Rare moving forward, and they are going to need to do some major work to gain player's trust back.

    @HitboTC @RareLtd @SeaOfThieves I still think the devs care. It’s whoever is managing the teams, leading rare, their marketing, and the CMs that are driving it into the ground. Devs could be more competent, but I suspect issues with tech debt, budget, resource allocation and lack of direction to be the culprit

  • KingHotdogPig
    KingHotdogPig (@KingHotdogPig) reported

    @SeaOfThieves I genuinely can’t comprehend the thinking behind this. You’ve proven time and time again that you have no idea how to run a live service. Not everything needs to be reimagined just for the sake of changing it… Is critical thinking against Rare’s company policy or something?

    @MWSlayerX @SeaOfThieves This is the guy they want to make community managers out of. The yes men cucks. The ones that refuse to see the problems.

    @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 Remember to fix the prices. Old items were shown as 1500 on leaks. So.. silently increasing prices after increasing amount of voyages? Disgusting. I’m glad I don’t support this game anymore.

    With everything going on in the SoT community right now, it’s been really disappointing to see certain creators and familiar faces either show their true colours or stay completely silent, It’s honestly horrible seeing how broken parts of this community really are. #SeaOfThieves

    @TormentedTofu @KingHotdogPig @SeaOfThieves "Correction: j0 and shirah have been deleting messages" this was a completely different CM. They CMs are rare employees and their actions reflect those of the company when doing business at work. The issue is larger than it seems despite attempts to minimize

    @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.

  • Spower69
    scott power (@Spower69) reported

    @SeaOfThieves The more supplies a ship has, the slower it should go. For example, if a loaded sloop has 200 cannonballs (plus all other supplies) it should sail slower than a sloop that just spawned with basic supplies. This would help prevent so many issues!!! #seaofthieves

    Xyllius (@Xyllius) reported

    @Musks_a_cunt @KingHotdogPig @SeaOfThieves That is what I mean by "not saying they are doing it correctly". First thing they should've done would've been put the people in question on leave until issues are pointed out. But then again, it's not the fault of most of the company. It's the fault of PR and also HR.

  • Captain_Falcore

    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.

    @Whitney_2nd @SeaOfThieves This isn't the point. I still do shots for fun and to help others. The issue is that they're devaluing the time and effort of over 2500 people who have won in the past. That is the issue. If you can't comprehend that, idk what to tell you.

    @MissusPeanut @SeaOfThieves It's fine to leave a hobby you no longer enjoy. It's also fine to enjoy it after having a break. If complaining about your hobby replaces your actual hobby, you have a problem. Finding a better hobby is the mature thing to do.

    @SeaOfThieves Can you investigate the cinnamonbeard error on PS5? Getting into PS5 only lobbies with crossplay turned off doesn’t work currently. Turning crossplay back on allows me to get into a server.
