This game is not SEA OF FRIENDS.

It is just a weekly event. Not to be confused with the end of the world.

All you have to do is temporarily COOPERATE and TOLERATE other players until you are finished. Also known as "not the end of the world"

Everything is going to be okay.

@theunknownd don't look for people actively doing them. approach and use your trumpet to ask if they WANT to. I'd bet a lot of people don't even know anything about it. in fact, last night, my friend needed the team ones done and we chased down a sloop crew who'd just gotten the game that night and were playing for the first time. we made sure to give them all the treasure we found and that their first experience was a blast. another night, another few friends added ❤

I would hate it if I can't finish it because no one will help me do them, I don't see anyone doing these thrones or I'm just unlucky.

Having the same problem as you

That's weird, because I've actually approached a sloop doing a Skull and ASKED them if they WANTED to do the Thrones, they said yes and then I volunteered to help them with the Skull Fort. In the end we became friends and now we play together.

"Forcing" players to work together with different crews is awesome and should stay in the game, if not enhanced really. Of course sometimes things goes south but that's the fun part, you never know what you'll get.

Exactly!

So much mental gymnastics in this thread. Actually, this entire forum in general. It's like watching the most obscure places on tumblr.

RARE, IF You want crews to come together, Don't force US TO.This is getting rediculous rare.

It is and was always a solid state in many other games ( like in plenty of mmorpgs too ) that if you wanna make a raid or a event that you have to build up groups together with other players.

I see nothing wrong in it. It's a old gaming concept . It's about socialising . That happens also in teamplay shooter , because thats the part of the normal content there.

I really hate how you need to have another crew with you to complete the thrones.I would hate it if I can't finish it because no one will help me do them, I don't see anyone doing these thrones or I'm just unlucky.

About the skelleton throne event : There are 5 skelleton thrones for single players . If a single player find them and sit on them then he get rewarded and can at last get the new outfit and a new title.

This is sea of thieves not sea of friends.
There are players , they like to see "sea of thieves" as game for lunatic kill on sight killers and they claim and call it as die hard pvp game.

But that's not RAREs sight of the view and if RARE have the vision to make this game to "sea of ​​friends" then it's the right of them.

@theunknownd I'm sorry that these events are included to remind some that it's not strictly a PvP game. In fact everything in the game is made with PvE in mind. Only the weapons are universal and the mindset of some are strictly PvP.

It's strange to hear this complaint from a founder of the game but you do have a choice to play in your typical aggressive fashion. You don't need to do these silly multi crew events.
It is totally up to you if you think that the rewards are worth a little of your time spent acting like a human being or not. Nobody is forcing you.
Granted, so far the rewards have been rather sad and this highchair challenge is a really dumb waste of time, but I did appreciate the break from the same ol' garbage that the megalodon provided.

So, with a game undeniably focused at PvE, having "positive social interaction" in mind but with opportunity for PvP and officially calling it a PvPvE, the telemetry showed Rare that with the Hungering Deep introduction to Megs, the game's player base only declined to 50% PvP / 50% PvE.
Joe Neate found it astounding it dropped that far. I find it astounding that a founder of a PvPvE game (3 months after launch) is complaining that it dropped that far.

Ask people to help you. Just because nobody is doing a quest currently, doesn't mean, there is nobody there to help you.

Having to group up with another crew to kill a big shark is one thing, having to do it to sit on a throne makes no sense at all.

It's fine if once in a while there are events that requires two crews to come together as long as it makes sense, it's even fun.

But this event is not the kind of event that should require it.

(Good job on forcing us to be friends with someone yet again rare to complete something)

This is sea of thieves not sea of friends.

I really hope future weekly challenges won't be like this. Make another game or make a pve server if you want us to make friends.

This is getting rediculous rare.

How about you co-op.. and THEN sink them? :) win, win.
