Can’t join my friends crew - constantly Searching the Seas

    Can anyone help? Any ideas on a workaround to get this working?

    Tried joining my friends open spot on a Sloop - constantly Searching the Seas...

    Closed and re-launched SoT, accepted rejoining my last session, same thing happened.

    Closed and re-launched SoT, declined the chance to rejoin my old session, accepted my friends game invite, but same thing happened again.

    Any ideas on a fix?

    Context: I started this sloop hours ago. My friends joined, I hopped off, I’m now trying to rejoin and it won’t work.

    Any ideas or suggestions appreciated

    I'm still searching the sea's right now, I tried everything to get back in, resets, closing game, starting my own sloop than trying to join the crew nothing seems to work.

    @flintlock-dan I tried the same thing as you, how infuriating. Let’s raise support tickets too.

    @ell635 happened to my friends and me today it was horrible.

    Same here. I was the captain, got the lost connection to a server error. I noticed the option to rejoin my current session was not present. I then tried to join my friend but could not reconnect to the session with my crew. Nobody else was able to join those already in-game as well since my session was seemingly lost.

    It's a bad known bug atm, once the person that started a ship leaves no one else can join.

    Thanks for confirming. I raised a support ticket and Rare said it’s a known issue.

    Frustrating thing is I believe I saw this feedback from play-testing yet it still went to retail.

    The servers all seem laggy / jumpy / rubber bands since the update too.
