  • StoogeFella Joshua Price (@StoogeFella) reported

    @SeaOfThieves @RareLtd the game is literally unplayable for me on pc gamepass. I bought the game years ago and I can’t even join a game without seeing longboard, coursebeard, or cyanbeard. I’ve tried to find an answer to my problems and I got nothing. This might be the end for me

  • DukeGroggy Duke groggy (@DukeGroggy) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Fix your game I’m on a streak of 3 and have 5 flags ready to sell and I get cyan bearded thanks give me my levels

  • Xilent_Lotus Jessika 🪷 ジェシカ (@Xilent_Lotus) reported

  • milkynecro Milkynecro (@milkynecro) reported

    @SaltGirthQuake @SeaOfThieves Wasn't around. But yeah, I think it's at a good spot, the only issue is the ancient keg commendation.

  • mikeyg0707 Mike (@mikeyg0707) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Cant even connect my ps5 to your game sisu xbox or how you need to call it doesn't work pls help for a fix

  • el_centroverita Abogados (@el_centroverita) reported

    @xChosen_Undeadx @SeaOfThieves Rare was once really cool and brought out games that put them in trouble with Nintendo. Now they are just gey pirates.

  • codyKnightYT Cody Knight (@codyKnightYT) reported

    @bdt2__ @Elmuchachooo @SeaOfThieves I mean, I, on a full galleon, have had my *** kicked by a one-man sloop. It's literally a pure skill issue tbh. You sink enough time into a game, you'll eventually reach the top.

  • EliGrange07 LUC 1DV1310N (@EliGrange07) reported

    @SeaOfThieves what’s with the constant cyanbeard errors today? Been going on for hours now, not just me, my duo in another country as well.

  • codyKnightYT Cody Knight (@codyKnightYT) reported

    @bdt2__ @Elmuchachooo @SeaOfThieves Thing is, Rare devs DO in fact play the game. That's why they don't see the problem, because you can simply be better than both your opponent as well as the third party. Or, convince your opponent to take care of the third party first. Doesn't mean it'll work, but you can try

    @SeaOfThieves @EightySixed Garbage..... fix your damn servers and your damn game before begging people to buy your useless merch

  • wyvernwolfart Wyvernwolf (@wyvernwolfart) reported

  • Spower69 scott power (@Spower69) reported

  • PizzaDutchYT PizzaDutchgaming (@PizzaDutchYT) reported

    @SeaOfThieves @RareLtd can yall fix your ******* game? I keep getting disconnected and then I randomly crash for no reason

  • FancyEggGaming Fancy Egg Gaming (@FancyEggGaming) reported

    @Elmuchachooo @SeaOfThieves I’m not sure if u saw the galleon when pulling up mast, if so I expected to see the move to fix mast next, then instinctively pull sails, all before the bucket. Granted the other guy on left so if one ball ur fked. Still better than galleon broadside on right. Props on solo hg..

  • FancyEggGaming Fancy Egg Gaming (@FancyEggGaming) reported

    @Elmuchachooo @SeaOfThieves How to fix? Have isolated zones while hourglass active? How long these zones stay active inconveniencing other pirates?, also burden on the servers. The other ship has same risk as you in this clip, if u got away they’d likely be the target and if they sank would u complain?…

  • JohnTweetedThat John (@JohnTweetedThat) reported

    @HitboTC @Elmuchachooo @SeaOfThieves Ya I have no problem with 3rd parties. It doesn’t happen much and can completely upend a fight. It happens.

  • SwabbieJohn Swabbie John (@SwabbieJohn) reported

    @Elmuchachooo @SeaOfThieves Further, they need to make sinking less painful. Get rid of streaks outside of cosmetic purposes. Get rid of flags. Introduce equal supps for every fight. Most hourglass problems could be fixed with one patch and not a ton of effort but here we are.

  • seraphim358 SeraphimGamingOfficial (@seraphim358) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Me and another streamer just got stuck perma-black screened mid-fight mid-stream. I thought this issue was fixed last year? What's causing this? Had to close the game completely and restart.

  • Gauthier_Slr 𝓔𝔂𝓰𝓸𝓷 ن ☩🇻🇦 (@Gauthier_Slr) reported

    @SeaOfThieves @ThePrideBrigade FIX YOUR GAME BEFORE

  • redwyo307 redwyo (@redwyo307) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Hourglass whenever there’s no cheaters, which is RARE. Fix your game. Sea of Cheats

  • scheneighnay Gncaptain Gnemo (@scheneighnay) reported

    @AlexSch00195791 @Snaadd_ @SeaOfThieves The playerbase loves creating their own problems then whining about it

  • UNLUCK1ED the Archangel (@UNLUCK1ED) reported

    @majornelson @SeaOfThieves Before all the problems. I barely even touched the game back then but I still remember the season two screen and it was just simply better than it is now

  • wyvernwolfart Wyvernwolf (@wyvernwolfart) reported

    @SeaOfThieves You know.... your "unstable connection " bullshit.... that started with season 16 and makes the game ping so ******* bad nobody can play it, even on fiber networks and high end PCs... soooo No.... I wouldn't recommend ANYONE pays for this **** until you fix it

  • wyvernwolfart Wyvernwolf (@wyvernwolfart) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Why would I buy a broken game with server issues that the dev team refuses to address? ..... like seriously wtf would i pay money for that?.... STOP BREAKING THE DAMN GAME EVERYTIME YOU DROP A NEW SEASON.... that would work for a start but 100s of players can't play now, thanks

  • wyvernwolfart Wyvernwolf (@wyvernwolfart) reported

    @SeaOfThieves Fix your Servers..... you get 100 million dollars and give the community absolutely 💯 trash servers, you broke the game with season 16, this new "Unstable connection " nonsense makes the game unplayable... again your loss, we deserve better

  • jostaahh jostaahh (@jostaahh) reported

    @SeaOfThieves why is the support so inconsistent when it comes to the same issue for different people? A friend and I were having the same issue, he received help and I'm being told tough luck
