  • Usagix3gaming 🌈🐰Usagix3gaming 🐰🌈 (@Usagix3gaming) reported

    @ERICTIEDE @CommsBreak @SeaOfThieves I don't know what your problem is, I get hunted EVERYTIME, couple times a day, now we always spawn in, check for reaper ships on the map, and if there are, we leave the server instantly. It's getting frutstrating.

  • iMissEvil1 iMissEvil (@iMissEvil1) reported

  • gamersrisingup1 gamersrisingup (@gamersrisingup1) reported

    @NoahKel06918695 @SeaOfThieves Hot fix for what? Pvp? Other than aim glitch i dont have a clue what you could mean

  • Cy_Bear91 Cy-Bear (@Cy_Bear91) reported

    @SeaOfThieves @SoT_Support I’ve run into the issue where I take the Chest of Sorrow to the tunnel and as soon as I enter it disappears. I’ve tried doing it a couple times and it keeps happening. I’m pretty annoyed tbh.

  • 1976charger Censored in Melb, Australia (@1976charger) reported

    @kartobiene @SeaOfThieves If it didn't glitch

  • _taldogabriel Gabriel✌🏼🤟🏼🤚🏼 (@_taldogabriel) reported

    @SeaOfThieves @BriittyBear You guys could fix the issue that's been going since one week before season 3, that some people are facing driver crashes when entering the storms... It's really frustrating.

  • lincolndukes21 Lincoln dukes (@lincolndukes21) reported

    @AyaNinami @MooPigRiot @SeaOfThieves It's pvp so no its not. Scuttle your ship if its that much of an issue Jesus. You won't get better at pvp if you don't fight back but most of all DEAL WITH IT

  • dpslesbian fruit of the loom (@dpslesbian) reported

    @SeaOfThieves for the love of all that's good fix the enemy spawn rate

  • BradySeislove Brady Seislove (@BradySeislove) reported

    @SeaOfThieves @SoT_Support My servers have been down for the last 3 days does anyone have the same problem or is it just me. If it is just me is there a way to fix it?

  • _Sikamikanico_ Jon Clarke | XboxEra (@_Sikamikanico_) reported

    Man, #SeaofThieves #APiratesLife looks great, and as a huge fan, I can't wait to play... Sadly despite 2 separate 3-ish hour sessions, my crew and I have still been unable to complete "Sunken Pearl". Glitches, other crews, a hard crash, and many server swaps and restarts...

  • ESCViking _______ (@ESCViking) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Fix the chest

  • Goose0431 Goose (@Goose0431) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Please fix the bug where the chest of everlasting sorrow disappears while swimming to the door that the chest is needed to open

  • Si1entWolf26 🏴‍☠️ Wolf 🏴‍☠️ (@Si1entWolf26) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Fix your game. I have lost 2 stacks now because of pve completely flipping my boat upside down. 1.Meg just toucked my boat and it flipped 2. Ghkst ships flip your boat when you scuttle them. This is on galleon btw. Thats about 1.5mill lost to bugs

  • Laxxor Paul Eden (@Laxxor) reported

    @OuTSMoKE @SeaOfThieves Did you get a resolution for this? I have the same issue and was handed a load of rubbish from SoT support reply...

  • killzone1401 Killzone1401 (@killzone1401) reported

    @destmorr @SeaOfThieves @MrFawlout I wouldn’t be surprised if they won’t fix it, i raised a support ticket months ago about the frostbite hook which clips through every spyglass but they didn’t fix it.

  • sillybunt5 ⚽ Shy Tot ⚽ (@sillybunt5) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Will it fix the Kraken not appearing on the Black Pearl level, after I've cleared all the enemies? Five times I've had to restart the game and It's still bugged!

  • destmorr yokrman (@destmorr) reported

    @killzone1401 @SeaOfThieves @MrFawlout yes, also Daring Deceiver Gloves are super bugged, their animations are terrible. I hope they fix that soon

  • XpepsC xPePs COMIx (@XpepsC) reported

    @SeaOfThieves pls fix the sale bug on the middle boat its way to low

  • CGallerine Gallerine (@CGallerine) reported

    @crimson1o1 @SeaOfThieves They need to fix what they have now before making new ones

  • MultiBlueGamer Blue🛡 (@MultiBlueGamer) reported

    2nd time trying to do the new @SeaOfThieves TT and just had the game crash so now I have to go all the way back..... first time was because of a bug

  • Hobbesdawg Hobbesy 2.0 (@Hobbesdawg) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Fired game up for the first time and it crashed right out of the gate. Steam install. I think first error was about direct x? then the PV02 error after attempt to repair. Doing a reinstall, all drivers up to date. Here's hoping! :(

  • NoahKel06918695 Noah Kelly (@NoahKel06918695) reported

    @SeaOfThieves So when’s the hot fix coming out? Had a really bad session fighting some people yesterday.

  • hagazo Hagazo (@hagazo) reported

    @SeaOfThieves hi there! Went online on my livestream today wanting to play A Pirate's Life, but unfortunately we spent two hours listening to the NPC, then opening the gate, then when the boats started arriving, getting a disconnected message with error Hazelnutbeard in XSX help?

  • madpolart Mad Polar 🔞 (@madpolart) reported

    @SoT_Support @culuurien @SeaOfThieves having this same problem

  • lincolndukes21 Lincoln dukes (@lincolndukes21) reported

    @MooPigRiot @AyaNinami @SeaOfThieves Your missing the point you was saying this game is toxic, you have those issues on literally any game with public chat that's no fault of the developers . if it offends you then at least you won't hear it in your party chat

  • NocturneTouch Elijah (@NocturneTouch) reported

    @InkyGhosts @27Nellie @SeaOfThieves I’m not angry. It’s just an observation. Your response is telling. Deflecting from the topic. There is a very high probability you’re a loser in RL and this game gives you a bandage fix for that.

  • josh_davis41 josh (@josh_davis41) reported

    @SeaOfThieves when’s the fox for the sunken Pearl chest when going into the next zone ? Cause it disappears now , so many other people have the same issue

  • gumbleplays Gumbleplays (@gumbleplays) reported
