Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • levraibratz bratz le vrai ☄️ (@levraibratz) reported

    Hello @SeaOfThieves There are problems with the servers. Is this an update?

  • DarkkMonarch Zamasu (@DarkkMonarch) reported

    @SeaOfThieves hey so are you guys upgrade the servers or fix FPS? because servers are ***

  • CrookedPlayz Ninefyre (@CrookedPlayz) reported

    @Joker_Sparr0w @SeaOfThieves So the problem with making that pve mode is its going to suck up all the pve players from the mainline game, which will kill pvp entirely, which is a large majority of the game. And about the pve mode, honestly i have no idea why it exists either LOL

  • mopwielder Shirah (@mopwielder) reported

    @MrJannusSoT @SoT_Support @SeaOfThieves Had you voted on the heist/had a heist active? If so, cancelling it should solve this issue.

  • _Sanana94 Marco Cremona (@_Sanana94) reported

    @IamGreen112 @SeaOfThieves Continuing what you said, we are adding value here and there, with paintings now worth 175K, but the real problem is lack of incentives. See forts during megastashes, they are so active and contested. SoT needs more randomness and to add value to events more than loot.

  • MMVSSOT MMVSSOT (@MMVSSOT) reported

    @Fi1es @SeaOfThieves Recent one is fixing the DPI Glitch while fighting under water. Further improvements like the invisible water glitch on consoles should be getting patched in the next update.

  • triheaded triheadedmonkey (@triheaded) reported

    @Lotus_Koril @SeaOfThieves @S0nicbob Nope, 'fighting' another pirate face-to-face does not equal a TDM. I never said that TDM was not fighting, just that it is/was misinterpreted/misused as a phrase. If you have an issue with any 'snarky' comments or 'unnecessarily' locked threads, send a ticket....

  • TheJackieB Mama Headache (@TheJackieB) reported

    @Lotus_Koril @SeaOfThieves @S0nicbob This is strike two in under 30 days for this guy. Last time it was treating a community member with disdain and attempting to shame them on social media because the person brought up an accessibility issue.

  • CrookedPlayz Ninefyre (@CrookedPlayz) reported

    @Joker_Sparr0w @SeaOfThieves That's fair man, i get where you're coming from too. Just an unfortunately difficult problem to solve

  • Helperobc Helperobc 🌐 (@Helperobc) reported

    @SeaOfThieves There appears to be an issue with the servers currently on High Seas. Selling items does not result in gold gained notifications in the top right, little to no reputation gains, and pressing tab does not reflect gold earned until scuttled to new sea.

  • ARxSWEET666 BONEYARDX0 (@ARxSWEET666) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Me & Lag on SoT servers, bout to do us a favor.

  • BrightShift JC (@BrightShift) reported

    @PamsGotCannons @SeaOfThieves No I just don’t care about the game. Broken, boring. Better games than sot.

  • GreedoGaming GreedoGaming (@GreedoGaming) reported

    @SeaOfThieves @RareLtd FIX THE CHEATER ISSUE IN THE GAME

  • Lotus_Koril Master (@Lotus_Koril) reported

    @triheaded @SeaOfThieves @S0nicbob You said "tdm has never been a part of sea of thieves", but you meant the 1v1 part, which makes sense, but 2v2 or bigger tdms have definitely happened and are therefore a part of sot. But this wasn't the only issue. What about the disrespect and locking the thread?

  • IamGreen112 Green (@IamGreen112) reported

    @100donutswfaces @SeaOfThieves I'd say the issue there is with the infinitely growing commendation and not the level of rarity of the treasure. Long grinds are fine but when you don't even know when one will end, that's a problem.

  • lilianthibodea1 Endman 😈💎 (@lilianthibodea1) reported

    @SeaOfThieves @Xbox Please fix the reputation bug and unobtained gold

  • Lotus_Koril Master (@Lotus_Koril) reported

    @Valor_Omega_SoT @SeaOfThieves @S0nicbob But thats not the main point of this post. The unprofessionalism of the mod, is the main problem here.

  • Slimey_Pigeon Slimey Pigeon (@Slimey_Pigeon) reported

    @120_sot @YouTube @SeaOfThieves The jokes at my expense, funny. The Goomba got a chuckle out of me. I can appreciate good banter. Issue I take is when you accuse me of a crime (doxing) when it is clearly not, nor any attempt at such being done. Lesson learned though. Stream mode enabled.

  • JackCourt2025 Jack Court (@JackCourt2025) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Fix your ******* game omg…. Every single time I load the game it says the services are unavailable at least 50 times before I can get into a server then each night I will disconnect at least 10 times or I can’t buy resources because it says that my inventory can’t be found!

  • IamGreen112 Green (@IamGreen112) reported

    @Darwin15176503 @AlbisJake90035 @SeaOfThieves I never said you complained about the designs of the structures or anything. You yourself used complaining about the capstan position as an example. Like I've said, I just commented on something I found funny. I don't see the issue.

  • Noahmattingly1 ☠DarkIlusions☠ (@Noahmattingly1) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Can yall fix your game on Xbox one it keeps crashing on me i didn't have this problem before its annoying

  • GamerDadZoiks CMDR Geocacher (@GamerDadZoiks) reported

    @SeaOfThieves I was just playing. So servers are up? But then I got a message that several is shutting down in 5 minutes. Extinguishing lamps don’t make the sound. Maybe it’s to fix that?

  • Slimey_Pigeon Slimey Pigeon (@Slimey_Pigeon) reported

    @120_sot @YouTube @SeaOfThieves I'll be honest. Whilst the video is slop, the insults of me and jabs at me are quite funny to an extent (I'm a goomba now) However, accusing me of attempting to commit a serious crime is not on. Especially when they manipulate the footage for it. This is where I take issue.

  • JimyChickenfoot JimyChickenfoot (@JimyChickenfoot) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Should be no problem that voyage will probably take ya bout 15 minutes to complete.

  • IamGreen112 Green (@IamGreen112) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Long blackscreen fix found? Hell yeah.

  • MourinholicSZN 🇬🇷 Tiki Taka 🔰 #GlazersOut (@MourinholicSZN) reported

    @SeaOfThieves hey here’s an idea why not stop people, who are waiting to be invaded, parking their ship in an unsinkable spot. It’s no wonder hourglass is dead. Fix the game we don’t need any more crap cosmetics

  • PamsGotCannons Pammy Cannons (@PamsGotCannons) reported

    @ohmmymod_ @Sigma_SoT @SeaOfThieves Ahhh damn wait I'm actually not gonna reply to you from here on out... I don't want you falling for your own rage bait and having a temper tantrum crash out on me also :( gg Ohm! It was short but fun!

  • viiraxetv viiraxe (@viiraxetv) reported

    @steel_city_crtv @SeaOfThieves I’ve got around 3K allegiance and have rarely run into this. I get it’s a concern and can happen, but it’s a fringe occurrence in the grand scheme of things. I’m more worried about potential problems it might introduce. That said, a fixed reduction to 50-60% might work.

  • Z0R0LIVE Zoro (@Z0R0LIVE) reported

    @SeaOfThieves PLEASE for the love of Davy Jones fix the bug that makes it so you dont get ANY money AT ALL when selling loot until hours later Honestly such an annoying bug. And even when i tab out it STILL doesnt show the money ive made. FIIX THE GAME PLEASE 🙏

  • CaptainCConnor Connor Grindley (@CaptainCConnor) reported

    @S0nicbob @SeaOfThieves So err, I found a glitch? In main Sea of Thieves! BY ACCIDENT! Regular megalodon bit my ship and flipped my ship underwater, I got off the cannon and it launched me in the air and made my character travel across the entire map
