Marble Bearded After stacking 9 Vaults

  • Unable to rejoin session after stacking, you guys want people to play your game you have to make it playable. I’m a day one player, i have 72 days played, i love this game but it’s so frustrating to have these same issues occur day in and day out year after year. i take break after break from this game and still the same stuff never fixes, little things that are easy to fix, such as when you dig up a storage crate from a skeleton captain mission, it says storage crate sold.
    or the fact that the damned loot at the end of veils duplicates over and over giving way more than intended ( for years now)
    FIX THE GAME!

  • Certainly fair to criticize bugs lasting so long (like they often do in SoT)

    There becomes a point though where players do extreme and ultra risky things that aren't a good idea in any online game.

    Stacking is a risk, extreme stacking is a bigger risk. That doesn't just apply to SoT, that applies to literally everything online. If it's not saving it's a huge risk to stack more and more.

    It's also pretty much pointless in SoT. There is no economy for stack screenshots any more. It's common, it's extreme, it's not really anything new or impressive anymore in SoT. It's a lot of risk for very little reward. You'll never compete with the exploiters and heavy coordinators in SoT as far as loot stacking goes. You just lose the loot when something goes wrong.

    Couldn't agree more. We rarely keep big loads of loot on our ship, score big then do a quick hand in.

    It also saves you losing it to an enemy ship. Normally when another ship do a hand in it then means they have nothing to lose and will most likely target the first ship they see for a quick loot up.

  • 9 Vaults..? Like GH Treasure vaults? which require a Key..
    I know there was/is an associated exploit that had to do with obtaining lots of Vault keys quickly..
    Thats the only way id see stacking GH vaults reasonable for Loot per hour.
    If thats how you obtained your keys... A well deserved Marble.. lol.
    If Not, thats unfortunate.. But its happened to us all, which is why you shouldnt stack.

    Lesson learned i hope.
    else, ill see ya next post.

    You sure the veil loot duplicates? Pretty sure they just stacked on top of each other.

  • @wolfmanbush @CaptDirtyOar
    why are people always okay with mediocrity in a game with so many players. Why should we have to accept that we can’t do what we want in sandbox game?
    seems kind of pointless to play in the first have then no?

    Nobody stopped you from attempting it.

    You took a risk and it didn't pay off.

    A loot stack in SoT is people telling the world "I stacked the deck in my favor and this is the result"

    Nobody that takes true risk in sot stacks loot. Because organically playing the game, without major advantages, with organic risk, is the opposite of mediocrity. That is facing the risk filled environment and respecting it enough to know it isn't safe to hold on to things that have no value until they are sold.

    You get to do whatever you wanna do, you just might not win in the end. Like everyone else.

    A loot stack is a proud statement about excess and conformity, that's really what that is.

    Stacking isn't only relying on Rare's services. It's relying on literally everything that allows a person to be on a game for hours without any form of a save other than selling.

    There are many common issues that could have led to the same outcome.

    Power goes out, internet goes out, life emergencies happen, unexpected events occur.

    Rare doesn't have any rewards for stacking 9 vaults, that's not in the design. Can criticize the bugs but that much risk is on the person that decided to take it.

  • @wolfmanbush

    Nah man,of the Power went out theres Will be not this post on the forum,considering there Is also a rejoin option.

    Basically its a Sandbox game where u can do everything as long as you dont break the rules BUT if the game Is broken Is your fault and not rare fault. Why emporium Money are not spent in a stable EXPERIENCE?

    The complain Is very Fair,despite the usual forum army wich you are a part of defending and shutting down complains;this lead to peoples abandoning the game. And yes the game Is going down pretty much. Lost 90% of his playerbase on PlayStation in the First month and steamcharts data Is showing a downfall trend. Rare attenmpting to rise with overinflated events like vault Stash Just help a Little and its actually damaging the game because peoples start to play only when there Is this events.

    All because as usual peoples are not listened and shutted down.

    Beautifull.

  • I have got marblebeard two nights in a row now. Both times were grade 5 Hunter's Call. Game locked up. Whole crew got disconnected, unable to join back to our boat. Said it was still out to sea. Stacking loot or not (we were not), kind of game breaking.

    Except the game does not always allow you to rejoin, as I had the pleasure of encountering a few days ago. And if the power is out for too long (like 15 minutes) rejoin is no longer available. So his point stands.

  • Hopefully they fix the server crashes in the hotfix they said was coming this week. Something in the new HC stuff is obviously unstable, and since a lot of people are probably busy doing it because it's new the chance of triggering a crash is higher.

    Not much you can do from the player side when the server crashes except start over in a new server or play something else.

  • @wolfmanbush and others I'm pretty shocked by some of these replies. Marblebeards suck and they can happen after a 10 hour stack session or even after finding one rare item in 10 minutes. The point is they shouldn't happen, and they are definitely happening more often since their latest updates. Please stop blaming this guy for trying to lodge a complaint about a problem that is happening in the game.
