Lords of the Sea - No achievement - Pirate lifes all 5 tall tales... no achievement, no shanty awarded...Server gives no gold??

  • For the love of god, if I got a piece of gold for every bug, I would not even need to do voyages...Is there any point to report this at all? Just asking if this ever helped anyone to get results?

    Rare when will this be resolved and when will we receive the achievement and the shanty? Also no gold was registered after finishing the quest for loot we found on the way?

    This is 'Sea of Thieves info and support' reply to this problem on 2021 July

    ''Sorry to see you've encountered this one. Our team is aware of this issue and looking into it. Keep your eyes peeled for any updates!''

    Every single bug I have reported. I've been told, We are working hard blah blah blah. obviously never received another update that this is now fixed, because its probably never going to be.

    I want my pirates life shanty Rare!

  • Allright just found you need all commendations for the shanty, we possibly have missed some journals. However, nothing registered upon completing the 5th tall tale and server still gave no loot. My fiancee also saw jack sparrow bugged looking through spyglass after completing it

  • @zig-zag-ltu

    Rarethief.com

    Best guides ever. They should be made official. Check against the PL tab in the TT commendations to see which chapters you missed journals.

    No gold servers are usually due to stacking and pvp. You should still get your stuff if you're not in the fight. It's weird.

  • Im an idiot for writing about the shanty I do admit this. However I have realized this towards the end of the 2nd tall tale. The first one we did shortly after it came out and we had no idea that they put same journal system as in other tall tales when we did it, so if we really need the shanty we will do it again someday.

    But I just dont understand why the last tall tale did not register. jack told us to get off this ship so they can sail off, the ship changed color and sailed into horrizon (the other jack which only my fiancee could see was still staring through the spyglass)

    After sailing through the portal in the final part of 3d tall tale, I was on fire without taking damage all the way through 4th until I died the first time I believe.

    Yesterday we could not even finish the 3d tall tale as the servers quit on us (if I had to guess server merging left us in a void where we received a beard error)

    As for gold, I assume this was triggered by the 'patched' exploit of 5th tall tale where you could farm the supplies for gold.

    At the same time Im so shocked about this...This is a dream come true as the devs said to have official POTC in Sea of Thieves, this content came out a long time ago, so much new stuff has been added since and its still bugged. Would Disney still alow this if they knew how bugged it its?

    Thank you Pithy, I will surely go along raretief if I want to get the 100% in them. But I'm not going to touch them until I receive the achievement and reward for completing the 5th is just ridiculous imo.

  • @zig-zag-ltu yeah, I hear you... it's annoying when achievements don't pop when they are supposed to. This has happened to me a lot during my Sea of Thieves journey ;) but there is little point getting too upset. You need to re-do it if you want the shanty anyway to find all the journals, but also as that 5th mission requires 2 playthrough's to destroy enough siren statues for the completion.

  • @semelweisreflex Seriously? No way POTC got Rared too? Don't get me wrong, doing them was a blast when they worked properly, really well made etc. I get the part that you need commendations to get the shanty, but to complete a single tall tale you need to play it twice? This should be mentioned during the tall tale ,or in the quest book or anywhere during the tall tale? Imagine to find out what happened in the end of Pirates of the Carribean Netflix would make you watch the same movie twice to unlock a 1minute ending scene? ''Amazing'' design...

    Also how many times anyone here, has done anything 2 times in a row that they really enjoyed apart from a favorite song? This museum was great, lets go back inside and do the tour again.....Man I love this book, let me read it one more time immediatley afterwards?

    Don't wanna bash on POTC tall tales if this is the case as they are truly awesome, but lets take the gold curse. Doing it 5 times to earn it is just to compensate the lack of creativity in the quest and inability to introduce any kind of variation or differnce even if such decision was made :/ (The ashen curse at least had 3 different paths..but watching Pendragon doing same thing 3 times went from ''Wow thats Cool'' to ''stache man just get it over with''(cant use certain words due to filter and rules to express myself better here) - just my honest feedback.

    Making the 'parkour' more difficult would not be a solution either imo.

  • @zig-zag-ltu lol I agree a lot of the achievements are excessively grindy - none are particularly hard to gain, just they require a lot of time to repeat tasks over and over... anyway, I am not complaining, as I enjoy this game despite its flaws.
    Sorry, I should have explained better... you should have received the achievement "Lords of the Sea" for your first completion of "Lords of the Sea" - but it must have bugged out on you for some unknown reason. But, that particular mission needs two run-throughs minimum in order to obtain the "An Eternal Pirate Life" achievement (which is essential if you are going for the Shanty).
    Hope that made some sense?!

  • @semelweisreflex That's good to know,thanks man.

    Btw, do you think is there any point to report it? So far in 2 years anything I reported was met - we are working hard to resolve this. (Which is literally what my company does and I know what this means, therfore this make's it rather hopeless)

    I might replay the last part just for that commendation, but if the achievement for completing it wont unlock I will collect every keg around and bomb Calypso giving those tall tales.

  • @zig-zag-ltu reporting this bug based on what you described won't help you unlock this achievement - seems like you were just unlucky to be in a glitchy server at the time. Best advice I can give is repeat the mission, which will 99% for sure unlock it. If you complete it again AND it fails to unlock then it is fully bugged out on you, and then a support ticket may be an option.

  • @semelweisreflex Thanks man, we will give it a go on next session I guess. I'll be sure to keep an eye on the nearest fort tho
