Strawberry beard ps5 error

Still having the strawberry beard ps5 issue, when are they going to fix it?

I have around 400 hours and spent a lot of money on micro transactions with this game on my Steam Deck and just got a PS5 and decided to buy it again and haven't been able to play it since I bought it a week ago because of this crazy Strawberrybeard Error.

I would definitely spend more money in this game if I could actually get into it and play it.

Has anyone tried to contact Sony for a refund???

same here...

still not works

This error isn’t something we can fix sadly we have to just hopelessly wait for rare to fix this i don’t know how they haven’t found the problem already

Same here. Ive done everything that i could find to do but still nothing. I even joined the dc but they dont even help and they just start arguments. Im just glad i found this thread and that its all very recent. I hope that RARE fixes this bull because this is just unfair.

They need to fix all the errors and problems for ps5 plsyer because I have been trying to play it for a week now and I keep getting the strawberry beard error and I have tried every fix posted online and not one of them worked

Yeah at first I thought it was a problem with the email/ps5 account link, or something, but I’m glad I’m in good company here. Sea of thieves is a very relaxing game, been craving the feeling in these stressful times, sucks that I can’t play it.

I’m also just super disappointed in how long it’s taken the devs to find a fix. It must be a pretty niche issue. Does anyone have a contact, or a way up the chain of command? I know someone emailed First Mate something or other, I wonder if we all spam him this problem would finally get more attention

(Playing on PS5) I got past it, I think its the same issue with Minecraft where you’re supposed to use the same account you first linked the psn to. Maybe it conflicts or something but I guess I tried logging to the wrong account. So what I ended up do is I basically deleted my saved data through my system storage so that I could re-sign in again. Then I used the original account I linked my psn with and I got past.

It’s been longer than a month and they still haven’t fixed it

@princefresh1352
Tried that and it didn’t work

For me, the error seems to be associated with the linked Microsoft account. When using an account that I played with on pc in the past, I was continuously given the Strawberrybeard error. However, after putting in a new one that had never been used for sot before, the game worked. It sucks that I can’t play as a pirate legend right now, but at least I can play the game.

@atxdaddy9802 your actually right I was signed in with the wrong account this full time if I was still getting the strawberrybeard error I would check all of the Microsoft live accounts I had and try them bc that’s what I did and it worked. Turns out this problem wasn’t because of rare we were just pretty silly

I’ve been having the same error. when I play it on my alt account it works but not on my main and I’m not tryna play this game on my alt

You have to use the original acount you had used to login with if you unlinked your original acount

If you are having issue finding what account your main account is view your chest on the sot website by going to the three lines then my pirate then my chest hope this helps

Played the game for a bit. Deleted it to make room for another game. Re-downloaded it later, Strawberrybeard error. Restarted PlayStation. Renewed licenses. Deleted local and online saves. Re-downloaded.Re-registered. Created a new Microsoft account. Nothing works. Strawberrybeard. About two weeks now.

@seaofrage29 Update?

@coffeestainedst

For everyone who's still struggling with this issue
I know this solution might be frustrating because of losing your whole progress
Btw.. this error comes from the wrong Microsoft account you were associate to your PS5 account
for me myself I can't remember which one of my Microsoft accounts was the right one

However.. what I did atleast to play was creating a new playstation account on PSN, Turn on my console sharing on my main account and login with the new one and play.. Connect this one to a new microsoft account and Enjoy playing Sea of thieves

have a good Journey

I accidentally sighed in on an alt account but I found my original account. But the strawberrybeard error won't let me get passed the click any button to continue screen and I don't know how to sigh out any other way on my ps5

@weirdwaffle47

Go to settings - Saved data and game/app settings - Saved data (PS5) - Console Storage - And delete the sea of thieves saved data

For anyone having this issue the problem for me was signing in with the wrong Microsoft acc that wasn’t linked up to my sot acc @sweptpandora276 said in Strawberry beard ps5 error:

Still having the strawberry beard ps5 issue, when are they going to fix it?

Bro I have the same problem and it’s not working for me either

Piggybacking on this. I had gotten this last summer. Played, deleted it for space, then tried to play again. I forget the error code, but it kept telling me that the account I was trying to link wasn't the one that I had originally linked. Long story short, Rare, Microsoft, and Playstation all refused to help for some arbitrary reason, when the account was definitely the one I had linked. Now, months later, I try playing again on the off chance something fixed itself. Got excited when the account link issue didn't come back, but then find this issue has been going on for a month.

@yayowak12 were you also having an issue where it kept saying you need to link to the original account when it absolutely was that account?

i been trying to log in for like 40 days and wasted 60 dollars on dumb freking GAME bro i was so happy to play this !

Bought the game today for PS5 and hit the same issue. I stumbled across this thread after about 2 hours of wasted troubleshooting, thinking it was a problem on my side. I've tried creating a new PS account, Microsoft account, removing game data, reinstalling the game entirely, but get the same error.

I've put in multiple support tickets over a span of 3 weeks over this issue, all I've gotten have been ambiguous responses saying this is a "known issue that the team is actively working on." Glad to see this is being talked about on the forums. This issue really highlights one of the biggest issues with live service games.

has anybody gotten any updates or fixes for it yet? i bought it a while ago and had to delete it, but it worked just fine while i had it— now it has the strawberrybeard message. i dont want a refund as i do genuinely want to play the game but this error has got to be fixed

Just bought it, strawberry beard comes... must bes the worst game i have ever spend my whole life

Any updates or fixes or progress on this issue? Really been in the mood for playing lately but then that error just keeps popping up no matter what.

I've got the same issue...

My mate can’t login to his account and so he made a new account tried that and it still gave the same error code but I am able to play it completely fine plz can you fix this very soon 🙏

@peachespoison he is trying to sign in with the wrong account I recommend trying all of his Microsoft accounts as one of them will be the right account
