  • Prestom16 Mr. Lemons (@Prestom16) reported

    @miles_lake @SeaOfThieves It was doing that for me the other day as well. Although I was on Pc so it might just be a weird glitch that has just appeared

  • FrostSchneider Liquid Raptor (@FrostSchneider) reported

    @SeaOfThieves 7 Reasons Why Hitreg Isn't That Big An Issue

  • BunkerMcc Royale Bunker (@BunkerMcc) reported

    @SeaOfThieves @RareLtd Pls fix the Skelett Ships.

  • ElyaPog Elya (@ElyaPog) reported

    @chrishoulden86 @EXECUTEtheHATER @SeaOfThieves Ahoy! Tier 100 sweat lord here :) You don't have to buy the tattoo, it just pops up in your vanity chest. It does take a while though, took like 5-10 minutes for me to appear. Or just restart your game, that should fix it too, I imagine.

  • lyndonSG LyndonSG Twitch Affiliate (@lyndonSG) reported

    So, it is looking like @twitch may have sorted out its issues as I did a test a few minutes ago and all worked! Planning to be on at 4 PM EST with @SeaOfThieves !

  • TCP_NP_DREW NizzlePrizzle (@TCP_NP_DREW) reported

    @MarshallFinch6 @HopeSlayer19 @SeaOfThieves Uh oh. Yeah the game seems a bit broken with the update. It always says season progress unavailable.

  • Andrew46704941 Andrew (@Andrew46704941) reported

    @Bella_booom @SeaOfThieves The problem is it doesn’t matter what you do when all you get is currency for new cosmetics. They should add an RPG mode where you can find gear in the world. New swords, new sails etc.

  • angerf1stTT angerf1st (@angerf1stTT) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Broken hitreg for sure

  • Nemesis2K -Dreamcast Forever- (@Nemesis2K) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Any update on the broken Flameheart event? I thought it would have been hotfixed before this went live?

  • ItsPrentissYall Prentiss (@ItsPrentissYall) reported

    @SwiggityxS @SeaOfThieves It better be an error. That means those sails are like 16mil lol. I’ve been playing the game since Beta and only have 26k doubloons. Had 25 million gold. All these overly priced things to drain those of us who have been playing since launch are a bit extreme if this holds.

  • IsaacPa38310508 Isaac Palacios (@IsaacPa38310508) reported

    @SeaOfThieves I’m on a sloop wit another dude doing the new merchant alliance quest and a Megalodon pulled up right next to us with a skeleton galleon n sank us faster than we could even get outta the water we were looting we were emissary grade 5 and jus trying to chill pls fix

  • Wayward_Snake Yeehaw I ain’t straight (@Wayward_Snake) reported

    @TannerPls_ @SeaOfThieves @RareLtd Nah. They very rarely listen to legitimate criticisms. The #1 thing holding SoT back is Rare’s ineptitude in handling Bugs, QoL, and highly requested content. They can bust out $40 worth of micro transactions a month but can’t fix bugs that have been there since launch?

  • ohitspatty GÄD (@ohitspatty) reported

    @SeaOfThieves yo those new Merchant Voyages are kinda broken right now. I did two and was unable to complete both. First one didn’t spawn the key and second didn’t spawn the ship as it was in shallows water of Devil’s Ridge. Hopefully rest will be smooth sailing! Thanks @RareLtd

  • IsaacPa38310508 Isaac Palacios (@IsaacPa38310508) reported

    @SeaOfThieves I meant just please fix the skeleton galleon it’s way to fast and does this weird glitchy turn to keep up with a sloop that had the wind at its back. This seriously needs to be fixed, the galleon was firing so fast neither of us could fix the boat. PLEASE FIX THIS!!

  • TheLocAsian 2Jianz (@TheLocAsian) reported

    @SeaOfThieves @JoeNeate1 @TheLongestJohns Yeah, fix your merchant mission, do it.

  • tylerlovekeeper Tyler Lovekeeper (@tylerlovekeeper) reported

    @Cheesy_wiggle @Noobface @SeaOfThieves It doesn’t run like *** if you have decent wifi. I use the game streaming (not xcloud but straight from console) and it’s decent enough to give you a gaming fix while your out and about

  • SwiggityxS SwiggityxSwooty (@SwiggityxS) reported

    @SeaOfThieves @SeaOfThieves does the merchant sails really cost 49k dubloons? Or is it a troll picture or a glitch cause thats messed up mate.

  • DongerJoe13 Joe of Donger (@DongerJoe13) reported

    @SeaOfThieves How about fixing the Black Market sails? You know the ones that have been bugged for almost a week, you haven't changed literally one single line of code to fix, and haven't responded to any bug reports about it?

  • PcflWtrs Tasha s (@PcflWtrs) reported

    @M3meSaurusRex @SeaOfThieves Oh that should not be happening at all!! I know another glitch. I was on top of a reaper ribbon boat voted on the quest & it erased the boat

  • ThE_RedWing Thomas Roethel (@ThE_RedWing) reported

    @KoogansDeeker @SeaOfThieves Whats broken about it? Done several today?

  • DongerJoe13 Joe of Donger (@DongerJoe13) reported

    @SeaOfThieves How about instead of posting about nothing you take the 3 seconds it would take to fix the Black Market sails that cost 49,000 dubloons so people who actually earned them can goddamn buy them?

  • TCP_NP_DREW NizzlePrizzle (@TCP_NP_DREW) reported

  • KnownAsIce KnownAsIce 🎮💪🏽🗣 (@KnownAsIce) reported

    @SeaOfThieves holy crap! What kind of server issues are going on?!? Over 4 hours sailing, $$$$$ of coin on board only to find all the islands, aside from pure rock, won't render and my game locked on black screen after drowning, with no gasps. I'm a bit emotional over here.
