Registered 14 years ago@SaltyStephen scuttle the... wait a minute *googles*. Huh. So there's something I didn't know you could do. Thanks for that, will definitely come in useful. While I quite enjoy the 'go figure it out' approach Rare took with this game there's a couple of bits I wish they'd been a bit more explicit about! -

Finally got myself a replacement Xbox yesterday and later in the evening every single person on my list was playing this.
Over the weekend I kept an eye on my friends list while I was playing other games, and at no point did I see more than one person playing sea of thieves.
Given it is only a week old you would expect a few more. Guess the shallow depth is already having an impact. Wonder what it would need, as it isn't a bad game.
Today I expect they’ll all have jacked it in as I’m planning on playing it myself. -

@Peew971 The HDD just gives a blunderbuss skin. A lot less than the joypad... Got to have that digital fluff though! -

I generally game in 1 hour bursts as and when time allows, and I realise I'm a bit slow in general but I'm finding that now I'm getting 3 part missions I just don't have the time to complete them

Registered 17 years agoWhat's worse is completing them and then having someone come up and sink you or steal the treasure - you only get the XP reward and gold when you hand the prizes in.
But yeah, the progression of vendor quests is to just get longer and longer. -

Registered 16 years agoI don't mind them getting longer (and much harder for some) but it's true that they become daunting when playing solo. Rare has already said they're thinking of a way to address griefing so that's good in a way but on the other hand it was an issue raised in the beta so they should have thought about it before. -

Release Notes - 1.0.1
This is a full game update as opposed to just a patch. It contains a wide array of fixes across our services, stability and game experience. We felt the priority here was releasing the improvements to our player base. For our next client update, we plan to send out a much smaller patch size.
--
Download size:
Xbox One: 9.99GB
Xbox One X: 18.97GB
Windows 10: 19.53GB
Xbox Installation Instructions can be found here.
PC Installation Instructions can be found here.
Fixed Issues
Players who have redeemed their Black Dog Pack pre-order code will now correctly see these items in their in-game chests. Not received your code? Check your Xbox Live messages over the next couple of days.
Characters should no longer lose details such as hair colour and scars.
When digging up a chest, there is no longer a chance that it will be impossible to pick up.
Players should no longer intermittently be missing items and weapons when loading into the game.
Weapon, clothing and ship cosmetic changes made after migrating server will now persist across sessions.
Players will now correctly see other players titles.
Snakes will now behave correctly, turning to face the player when agitated.
Animal and skeleton movement around slopes has been improved.
The game will no longer enter an unresponsive state after accepting a game invitation whilst matchmaking.
Merchant Alliance notifications for handing in various items have been corrected.
Lighting has been tweaked in order to improve performance on multiple islands and outposts.
Fixed tinnitus sound which persists after being killed by multiple explosive barrels.
Seagulls now fly over floating barrels.
Players can no longer be held by a seemingly invisible Kraken tentacle.
Fixed a range of potential game crashes.
Performance Improvements
Significant performance optimisations across all platforms, specifically targeting the 4K native resolution of Xbox One X.
Drastically reduced the likelihood of tearing when using the small ship.
Reduced the likelihood of tearing when inside the Taverns.
Sizeable framerate improvements when traversing large islands.
Reduced likelihood of framerate hitches when navigating outposts.
Optimised Foliage for smoother experience in overgrown jungle areas.
Further improvements and optimisations for all platforms are ongoing.
Known Issues
Player gold and reputation can be delayed when cashing in a reward.
Player achievements can be delayed.
Bounty quest skeletons sometimes do not spawn or cannot be found.
If you encounter this bug, a potential work around is to sail away from the island until it’s out of range, and then sail back in to trigger the Island Name banners.
Joining a player whose ship is parked at an active skeleton fort will prevent the joining player’s radial menus being opened.
Rare Lore Items throughout the world will read in English, regardless of current language settings.
"Hunter of Cursed Crews", Commendation is not updating.
Players may become comically smaller after fighting the Kraken. -

Registered 12 years agoTypical buggy Microsoft shit software. Played for about an hour solo, and returned to try multiplayer and getting error 0x803F8001. Tried googling and it says phone Microsoft for support. 😡🤬
Just seen the front page ... not a good start, so glad I didn't pay £50.

Registered 20 years agoI think Game Pass is truly borked at the moment. 2nd attempt to d/l the 19gb also crapped out at the end. Uninstalled and now Game Pass appears revoked for SoT. I see I could still download Gears4... -

Hopefully will get a chance to play tonight. If not, I just bought the play anywhere version of Snake Pass at half price - that'll do! -

Played for the first time a few hours ago. It's gorgeous, isn't it!
I had no idea what I was doing for the first 20 minutes. And then starting sailing rather aimlessly in the hope of finding another ship to attack. No sign of one? Why are there no other ships about? -

See, every once in a while we get someone trying the game once and complaining about not seeing any other ship. Meanwhile people playing regularly know how much of an issue griefing is and how not empty the world actually is.
