  • Wait they did another server down time? LOL again? This time on a bank holiday, wonder if they will fix the push to talk bug.

  • There is nothing on twitter to say they are doing down time? or on the status page

  • they went down for a bit. getting pretty annoying.

  • People on reddit are reporting that their servers went down but were able to join a different server soon after.

  • This is very annoying. My crew mate and I were treasure hunting for about an hour and a half and had about 5 maps, one island had 8 chests and we already dug up 5. We lost everything. Please fix this Rare. PLEASE!!!![alt text](image url)

  • Yeah they did

  • I guess rare owes me and my friends a stronghold key

  • I think with all the servers going down just when ever and people loosing stuff to server going down or those that see that server going down in X minutes and head to an outpost and just circle it waiting for people to try and rush in to turn in before server goes down. It is time for Rare to compensate for the losses like so many other games do "sorry for the inconvenience of our server down time here is some in game currency." or something .

  • The status page says nothing about it. Unplanned maintenance?

  • I doubt it would be as big a frustration if
    A • Downtime occurred at Known Regularly Scheduled Periods.
    For example: Daily 11:00 - 12:00 GMT

    This typically is the most convenient Global Time as well as a good time as you can discuss the maintenance that Morning and still have time to resolve issues that crop up in the Afternoon.

    B • The Game has Persistence between Sessions. This is the biggest frustration in Sea of Thieves at present (to me) as Inter-Session loss of Side-Quests, Treasure, etc. really makes it difficult to play in short bursts as you just end up feeling like you've just wasted the past hour... especially given it's not uncommon to get involved in getting Hunted by another group making it a little difficult to hand things in immediately.

  • @mkkatniss98 yeah I know man it’s such bullcrap rare should give us the amount that those chests would be worth

  • @leyvin I agree with you, it's really annoying to lose bottle maps and quests cause I have to log out or whatever. Once we find the message in a bottle it should be ours til we find it or drop it, not just losing it cause we log out.

  • they always shut servers on weekends, W*F? AU prime time
