All in all, though, Sea of Thieves players aren't happy about the situation. It comes at a fractious time for the game itself, after a former artist on the title suggested that the devs knew Sea of Thieves was repetitive in nature. With some asking for more from the title, should those disappointed in the Pirate Legend content (and the way that it was reached) make a big enough noise it may cause Rare to give the game some twe

Now, when you can get a good-sized crew that can all communicate? That's when Sea of Thieves truly comes alive. This is a game that can master the art of camaraderie as you help each other out by telling the player at the wheel what's past the sails in their view, keeping an eye out for shipwrecks with potential loot, splitting up to search an island and swap clues and findings, or even firing flintlocks at sharks from the ship to help save players making a swim for the ladder while carrying the treasure you found. Heck, even just playing around with the musical instruments or getting drunk on grog during a quieter moment provides some laughs and levity as a group. Working as a crew is just as fun and rewarding, and is clearly the game's biggest strength.

The announcement of a PVP mode should come as no surprise. Fans had been clamoring for Sea of Thieves to create a Battle Royale mode. Rare responded by saying the mode, or something like it, would likely happen if they felt there was enough interest. Considering how popular and successful the genre has been , it’s safe to say that players were sufficiently interested. Battle Royales aren’t going anywhere anytime soon, with Call of Duty and Battlefield V creating their own versions to compete with the current reigning champion of the genre, Highly recommended Online site Fortnite . Soon Sea of Thieves will have a competitive mode of their

"We are storing all awarded achievements, and are working to deliver these for all affected players. There is some groundwork in the patch arriving [today] that enables us to then deliver the delayed achievements via a service-side change, but ETA on this is a little loose whilst we work on the plan. We are hoping to enable this by the end of the week, and will share more information so

The setup for Sea of Thieves is that you wake up as a pirate in a tavern on an outpost in the middle of the titular sea, head to your ship, and then...um...basically proceed to just do pirate things. Because...pirates. Yeah, needless to say, a lack of detailed world-building already sticks out as one of the most notable flaws. There's no real driving force behind everything other than "go be a pirate." Sure, there are hints of something bigger in the various tribal markings and shrines you find, but they're as bare as possible and don't contribute a lot. You do have various trading companies to work for, ghost ships to sail on when you die, a vicious kraken, salty buccaneers that sell you goods...but they don't necessarily blend into a cohesive world. It feels more like someone just spread out a bunch of standard pirate cliches and just decided to roll with it.

The first Pirate Legend has now been found, in Twitch streamer Prod1gyX . Rather than this being a cause of celebration for Sea of Thieves players, however, this has instead been a scene of major disappointment. The streamer has been widely criticized for the way in which he has reached the rank of Pirate Legend, relying on boosting from other players to get the status rather than making it there of his own accord. Essentially, other players helped out Prod1gyX with voyages, doing the majority of the work but sharing in rewards, leaving some feeling as though the streamer is more Billy Bones than Long John Sil

Rare has a fairly substantial list of things that need fixing with Sea of Thieves, and a patch releasing later today should address some of player’s issues. Specifically, Rare hopes to make sure that all players that unlocked the Black Dog Pack gear via a code should see those items appear in their inventory once the patch arri

Sea of Thieves now has its first Pirate Legend, but other players aren't exactly happy about how this high achievement has been reached. Rare's pirate-themed title has been drawing players in with its gameplay and colorful world, and although the game has had its fair share of launch issues nonetheless the allure of earning untold treasures has proven rather tempting for gam

On top of that, Sea of Thieves players are still seeing a delay in gold and reputation rewards and there has been some server instability noted on the forums. Not all of these issues will be fixed by this week’s patch, but Rare is hoping to get the more pressing problems ironed out. At the very least, this patch should put the game on the path towards stability and new content releases , even if some problems still pers

One of the new Bilge Rat Adventures is the Sunken Curse. And before it was released, Rare made sure to hype it as a brand new activity that will make us go deeper into the open waters and explore what’s beneath the choppy surface of the sea. Naturally, everyone thought that a new enemy, maybe some sort of merpeople, were going to make an appearance. Unfortunately, it turned out that it was just some statues that we had to beat into submission. Sure, a big update came very soon after this Bilge Rats Adventure, but in my opinion, the Sunken Curse was just lazy, if anyth
