  • lynn_k8 K8LYNN (@lynn_k8) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Look how all the Twitter criers don’t cry about technical issues when it directly benefits them 👀

  • SlooperSolo CrazyJuan (@SlooperSolo) reported

    @karldigger33 @Oof80114779 @SeaOfThieves Its not "made for pvp". You can tell this because you dont actually get rewarded for pvp. its a sandbox game that promises for people to play how they choose, problem is goons that followed streamers to the game only wanna play one part.

  • SlooperSolo CrazyJuan (@SlooperSolo) reported

    @LunarHalo69 @bagelrocket @SeaOfThieves PvP is broken in several ways, but again that's not what we're talking about, and further if you would be bored on pve only servers the good news is that nobody would make you play on them.

  • Ms_ShellyTot Shelly Louise (@Ms_ShellyTot) reported

    @minimemarclee @SeaOfThieves @SoT_Support But then again they can't even be assed to fix my broken code items that I've reported many times. Why would they fix a in game issue, and I reported my issue back in October and in January.

  • chillcommand Gorongor (@chillcommand) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Since this issue accompanies the game ever again for some time now, is there any chance you might fix this for good eventually? Or is it sort of built-in and will always return?

  • jenndubu Shishy (@jenndubu) reported

    God I love sea of thieves but I hate people so much, trying to do a tall tale and someone just chases us and sinks our ship for no damn reason, we didn't even have any loot, and tall tales take so much time and effort and now we have to start over. Please fix this @SeaOfThieves

  • SkinnySargentPL TheSkinnySargent (@SkinnySargentPL) reported

    @Halo22Solar @ashyra_ @SeaOfThieves Note to rare: please fix the rep system, my friend has not gained any rep for months after voyages he’s been stuck at 39 for merchants and it’s his last company, we’ve tried everything and nothing is working.

  • OskarLimstrand Oskirr (@OskarLimstrand) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Are the servers down?

  • weddle_jay X TwiZtiD Jay X (@weddle_jay) reported

    @Trainer_Rich @SeaOfThieves It's most definitely your internet, sorry to inform you. When your internet hits a lag spike this is what happens.

  • JFugere10 john_fugere10 (@JFugere10) reported

    @AlecDevience @SeaOfThieves Because they need to fix the game cuz it caters to worse players rn like you

  • SebbyDogg Luke Sebastian (@SebbyDogg) reported

    @SeaOfThieves I haven’t had the x2 since Saturday. Played loads Sunday and yesterday evening, now on again and still not getting double. Anything I can do to fix it? On PC.

  • AndreasBenakis Andreas Benakis (@AndreasBenakis) reported

    @SeaOfThieves please fix the achievements. Playing on xbox and most of them won't unlock, even trying multiple times for each one. #SeaOfThieves #SoT #Xbox

  • dallas_duo ✭WE PAID DAK!!✭ (@dallas_duo) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Only people I've ever encountered that was a huge problem, a duo circling me and sneaking on my ship undetected even tho I was watching the skies and ladder, don't ever underestimate the sneakiness lol

  • Ace33W Rob (@Ace33W) reported

    Anyone else having issues getting into servers? Its telling me services are unavailable and to try later. @SeaOfThieves @SoT_Support

  • j4hl3x4nd3r j4hl3x (@j4hl3x4nd3r) reported

    @Trainer_Rich @weddle_jay @SeaOfThieves i know this issue. it always happens to me, when my internet is failing. i'm able to join the server, after the connection works again. so... could be worse...

  • greyden61993666 greyden (@greyden61993666) reported

    @SeaOfThieves please fix the mermaid issue, ill get knocked off of the boat and be 15 miles away from my boat and the mermaid DOESN’T spawn, when it does it spawns at my boat 15 MILES AWAY.

  • 0nyxSt0rm Onyx (@0nyxSt0rm) reported

    @BoiBitty @tormiline @SeaOfThieves I don’t either. I solo that ship when I don’t have any friends on. Also, that guy straight up showed how toxic it is on Xbox like it wasn’t a problem lol

  • fleeblorp Fleeblorp (@fleeblorp) reported

    @SlooperSolo @SeaOfThieves PvP players play for the PvP, you can’t exactly fault them for that, in the same way I can’t fault you for only enjoying PvE. You can play the game and PvE exclusively and that’s okay, it becomes a problem when you want to effectively remove the PvP part of the game.

  • saacy_ saacy (@saacy_) reported

    @Jason_Myers2006 @IllBushido305 @SeaOfThieves Let's hope there's a way to fix hit reg

  • WGreene13 W Greene (@WGreene13) reported

    @SlooperSolo @MasonLatour2 @SeaOfThieves thats the problem, it has changed. pvp thrives from pve players that gain lots of loot and make the pvp interesting and valuable. if the players that gain the loot arent there pvp players lose that. ur the only thinks ppl wouldn't eventually get bored or lose spirit.

  • IllBushido305 Bushido (@IllBushido305) reported

    @saacy_ @Jason_Myers2006 @SeaOfThieves The person ate all the bullets lol. I really don’t understand how it’s so bad. One big issue is when landing a successful sword lunge, there is zero cool down, and therefore you can immediately get the final 1-2 hits after the lunge. I seriously miss the old cutlass.

  • WGreene13 W Greene (@WGreene13) reported

    @SlooperSolo @MasonLatour2 @SeaOfThieves if u seperate pvp players from pve players with all the loot. at some point players will lose incentive to play because the dynamic would be broken

  • SlooperSolo CrazyJuan (@SlooperSolo) reported

    @bretzel_askip @SeaOfThieves I got no problem with that. That's not what this is about. I've been sunk and such, was last night, wasn't first time in 3 years of playing, not really a big deal. It's not like you can really lose progress in this game. It's about letting everyone choose how to play

  • paulcr1982 paul ryan (@paulcr1982) reported

    @SeaOfThieves fix your laggy servers they are the worst they have been in ages omg so bad

  • TXJackal82 SirJackal82 (@TXJackal82) reported

    @SeaOfThieves been having an issue tonight on the merchant manifest quest with the ship not being there but the manifest is floating in the water and no cargo. Happened four times now.

  • SlooperSolo CrazyJuan (@SlooperSolo) reported

    @fleeblorp @SeaOfThieves See the problem here is that you think that pvp players should be able to only play one part of the game they want to, but nobody else should be able to. Sheer entitlement

  • CapnMarko Jim Marko (@CapnMarko) reported

    Why does @Twitch authentication garbage problems always come up during @SeaOfThieves drops?

  • ArtikKnight Artik Knight - #RestoreTheSnyderVerse (@ArtikKnight) reported

    @XboxGamePass @SeaOfThieves The quests for game pass is broken. Is that going to be fixed. It says I earn them and then says there unavailable when I go to claim them

  • KitsuneOfRain1 Kitsune Of Rain (@KitsuneOfRain1) reported

    @Oof80114779 @SlooperSolo @SeaOfThieves problem can be solved by making loot sell for more on normal servers and skins not transferring between modes

  • TheViking98 Josh Callan (@TheViking98) reported

    @SeaOfThieves my crew and I are getting some Lavenderbeard issues, are the servers down for maintenance or something???
