  • @booth-thomas The bugs can also be reported directly to the support :)

    How report bugs / Report a bug (may take a while to fully load)

    Although I am curious to know everything that has been found in the Final Beta version.

  • @booth-thomas Good idea, I often wonder what's the best way to report these. Here's a list of what I found, will update as i remember more:

    • The classic and known bug of not receiving gold/reputation for delivering something for a long time;
    • Not receiving any rewards from 3 shipwrecked chest at all (all from the same shipwreck, don't remember the name);
    • Not being able to unload a specific canon for the duration of the section, be from the outside or while using;
    • Vanishing chests from sunk ships (for instance my crew took a galleon down while i was boarding, they had 3 chests and I was holding one of them as the ship was underwater. I let go to shoot a player and when the ship vanished so did the chests, even the one I was carrying that was already on the last stairs);
    • Getting stuck after shooting myself out of a canon towards a specific island, couldn't walk or jump out of it (forget which island but here's video: https://streamable.com/o35en);
    • Spawning with a hole on my sloop, be it solo or duos. Happened twice and the hole was always in the same place (front to one of the sides);
    • Was storing wood planks after an island, was full of them, but when I'd store the first one I couldn't store more. On the barrel it would say Can't store No-Name-Holder or something very similar. I'd still be holding a plank as if i had some but my inventory said I had 0. When I took the one i stored out it would go back to 5.

    All on PC

  • First bug I had was when you were respawning on your ship that before I would get a white screen that people and crates would be floating in the air over the water.
    Xbox one X
    The entire Beta

    2nd bug I noticed was when I would be empty of cannon balls I would pick one up and it would say I had 10 then when I went to load after I shot that one and it said I had 0.
    Xbox One X
    Finally had to reboot the entire game.

    Voice chat for in-game was not working for us there's was 4 of us at one point and game chat didn't work at all. Just had to use party chat.
    All of us on Xbox One S but me and I was on the X
    Entire Beta.

  • @deashkiin The best way to report bugs is always via Support - then it gets straight to the people who need to know :)

    How to Report Bugs

  • The push to talk doesn't work or i don't get it. Does it activate near other players? Why am I constantly sending voip even though i am not pressing alt.

  • Just to list the bugs I faced.
    -I saw a player on xbox unable to get off a cannon until he was killed.
    -On my Xbox One s every time I opened the clothing chest my game would crash
    -On my Xbox One s I would occasionally be locked in the white loading screen for up to 10 minutes before restarting the game.
    -On my PC with just one of my ships I would try to offload cannonballs but before I could store any cannonballs my inventory would drop to 0.
    -On my Xbox One s there were three occasions when I went without seeing ships for up to four hours until I was forced to join another server. This was also after thoroughly searching every corner of the map for ships.

  • Hello, in advance I love this game. I'm looking forward to the release.
    I play on the PC.

    Bug 1: When spawning our Galleone was turned over. The galleone was swimming in the water with the sails. She did not turn around anymore. (1 times occurred)

    Bug 2: Occasionally stuttering occurred in combat. (6 times in 15 hours)

    Bug 3: My caught pig has disappeared at once. (1 times occurred)

    Bug 4: My purchased gear only appeared after a reboot. (2 times occurred)

  • @El-Espectro-0 @KattTruewalker Thanks!

  • PC Player here

    AMD Ryzen 1700X - 3.8Ghz, 16GB 3000Mhz Ram, GeForce 1080Ti, 1TB SSD for games. Latest drivers and updates.

    Experienced it twice when quitting to desktop; the game won't close down. Alt+Ctrl+Del - won't show Task Manager to close it. I have to some how bring up the task bar, right click on the SoT window at the bottom and click "Close" - after that, the game will NOT load - it will drop back to desktop after loading the Sea of Thieves load screen.

    Uninstalling + re-installing fixed the issue. Didn't try a reboot, from memory.

  • -Gold not awarded when cashing in chests
    -XBOX One (standard, 500gb, external 1Tb HDD)
    -Saturday 8pm - 11pm GMT)
    Game completely refused to hand over gold, did this for 5 chests handed in at 2 different outposts during the evening. Then a random 260+Gold was "credited", but not adding the total about 30 minutes after the last hand-in.

    -Skeleton Fort No Captain
    -Tried one fort - no Captain appeared even after the 4 in my crew spent a good 30 minutes fighting skellies and expending our banana supply (those cursed blue bandana skellies!)
    -"Popping" Skeletons in the same skull fort as above as well; the skeletons were infinitely spawning and de-spawning in front of me.

    -Infinitely moving skull flag
    -Once, around 1pm GMT on Saturday - skull could kept moving further away from me until I hit the red sea and had to turn back...

  • I think the most annoying bug was the loot bug on skeleton forts lol. So many empty treasure rooms.

  • @booth-thomas Although this was an extremely isolated incident, one of the skeletons manning a fort cannon did not die, despite numerous blunderbusses and cutlass slashes. No screen shots, or video clips, sorry.

    It was pretty funny though!

  • As I've said in other forum topics. They need sliders to adjust gamma in HDR mode. It is unplayable on LG TVs in its current state.
    -kthx
