    @SeaOfThieves Please fix the servers. The game failing to buy items is becoming very frequent. Please switch server locations or reset them.

  • Commander_JCM Commander JCM (@Commander_JCM) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Fix the ******* Longbeard and Trimmedbeard disconnects for ****’s sake, the ******* trannoid retards at Rare and Microsoft can’t ******* host servers worth ****

  • CaptainFoxytrot Captain Charlie Foxtrot 🐀 (@CaptainFoxytrot) reported

    Anyone else having a lot of issues with the #SeaOfThieves servers the last two nights? Lots of beard errors or just getting stuck at different parts of loading screens...

  • AyeAronLive AyeAronLive (@AyeAronLive) reported

    @SeaOfThieves i think we should also be taking the servers offline to deal with the many bugs and dropped server performance such as vendors not loading or counting coins or beard errors servers randomly dying rather than an adventure

  • ClappyVonTrappe ClappyVonTrappe (@ClappyVonTrappe) reported

    @Lukathy95 @SeaOfThieves I had this issue when I had both versions installed as well. Now I just switch between my main and alt through steam and don't even have the MS version installed.

  • tsmalls_gaming TSmalls (@tsmalls_gaming) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Maybe the servers going down will fix my account I've been permanently alabastered out of for a week

  • goglobal0 Goglobal (@goglobal0) reported

    @ConnorLapoint @SeaOfThieves And half the problem is all the little kids that come fresh out of the tutorial and just sit there useless

  • InsaneSpyro Spyro_Devilwitch (@InsaneSpyro) reported

    @SeaOfThieves OK rare you can give me 100,000 gold back, this is the 2nd time I saved everything to the ship and its just deleted it, I'm not putting 50k again for you to delete the ship cosmetic. ill just be default till you fix it

  • Krogbear30 Krogbear (@Krogbear30) reported

    @SeaOfThieves The Pirate Lord needs to fix the ship cosmetics save bug so that we don’t sink gold into saving our cosmetics only for them to get re-saved as sailor parts

  • NotSpenzo Spenzo (@NotSpenzo) reported

    I just spent 2 hours doing voyages in @SeaOfThieves and didn't get a single coin or reputation for everything i sold. Fix your ******* game.

  • RioNeoPSN Rio-Neo (@RioNeoPSN) reported

    @SeaOfThieves It would be nice if captains had any rule over the ship they paid for. Really annoying if some trolls join you, lock you in the brig, then wreck your ship. Now you have to pay to fix your ship. Completely pointless to buy a ship, it's just gonna constantly cost you.

  • mcsherlocks Daniel Sherlock (@mcsherlocks) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Are you supposed to loose your captaincy if you disconnect? I lazybearded cameback, went to sell up for the evening at the sovereign and found out I'd lost my captaincy for the session!

  • jasonhilldj Jason Hill (@jasonhilldj) reported

    @NightNerdBat @SeaOfThieves That I agree with. The patch hasn’t been out a week yet. I’m sure they’ll fix it.. even still it’s not much more than the price of a storage crate.

  • IIMikezII Michael Lloyd (@IIMikezII) reported

    @Dragonflame1090 @Hendriettee @SeaOfThieves If you really let trinkets in a video ruin your life because you decide to play a certain way that you don't enjoy, then I don't think the issue is with the game. They already nerfed the ridiculous ones that were unreachable, if you don't enjoy grinding, don't grind. Just play.

  • Lunaroka_ 𝕷𝖚𝖓𝖆𝖗𝖔́𝖐𝖆 (@Lunaroka_) reported

    Ahoy @SeaOfThieves ! I'ld like to contact you in private for a question arround the game but not a support problem but I don't know where I can do it ?

  • bennDavidson3 benn Davidson (@bennDavidson3) reported

    @SeaOfThieves such a bad pathetic excuse for a game just sunk cause every time i go newr anothwr players ship i lag pay to win horrible game

  • Treefittytwo Monkey Monkey (@Treefittytwo) reported

    @SeaOfThieves It'd be nice if all the captaincy mechanics worked and the trinkets didn't lag the game so bad. Also 6 ships?

  • AlactarGaming Alactar (@AlactarGaming) reported

    @Hendriettee @jonnyoklm @SeaOfThieves yeah, I had a problem I did something about it... then I knew about this latest milestone stuff so I started to play the game again to get used to it before this update landed. so what's your point ???

  • TatsuRevan Revan Tatsu (@TatsuRevan) reported

  • RevenantGoth V 🦇 (@RevenantGoth) reported

    @SeaOfThieves @SoT_Support @RareLtd Day 4 of my sister getting the ‘Alabasterbeard’ error. We’ve tried every possible solution with no luck… Is anyone else having this issue and if so are there any fixes? Any help is appreciated.

  • TriegC Trieg Christensen (@TriegC) reported

    @SeaOfThieves is sea of thieves servers down rn?

  • toybeartime T E D D Y B E A R I S M S (@toybeartime) reported

    @DHalo77 @SeaOfThieves No, that's the problem, I do play games to have fun. And grinding is not fun. Its a **** mechanic to drag dumb players out. I want you to really read my tweet, and ask your self in that's reasonable.

  • Treefittytwo Monkey Monkey (@Treefittytwo) reported

    @SeaOfThieves I'll buy a ship when the captains log is fixed and the additional cosmetic trinkets don't lag the game so much.. how bout that six ships?

  • BeardBerserk 𝐁𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐝𝐁𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐞𝐫𝐤 (@BeardBerserk) reported

    @Lukathy95 @SeaOfThieves Had the same issue got scared it might create issues with my main account so I deleted steam

  • kalekazam 🇺🇸 Milly 🇺🇸 (@kalekazam) reported

    @laynietweets321 @SeaOfThieves It still doesn’t work, my ship had problem loading my saved asset and it’s the third time I spend 7,5k to save each piece on my ship 🙃

  • j08630365 j (@j08630365) reported

    @themilkman696 @SeaOfThieves you literally just have to turn into a headwind. if you can't do that, there's a serious skill issue that needs to be addressed.

  • SganianHD Filipe (@SganianHD) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Fix you damn game. Ive played for 3 hours and when i went to sell anything, I didn't get any coins. So I've lost gold and upgrading the milestones...

  • smarioplayer200 Joshua1995 (@smarioplayer200) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Please fix the captaincy bugs, it's annoying. I know you guys can do this :D

  • Vupzy Cpt Vup (Flamehearts Vengeance) (@Vupzy) reported

    @BetterBhvr @BlackLotus729 @SeaOfThieves You are acting like you can only have a certain amount of friends while gaming. That’s your problem, Also. If you want your ship to be captained then make a post, if you want to join a ship then join a ship. It’s really not that difficult.
