As the title states, I missed my chance at getting the Obsidian Wheel. I feel like the ball was dropped on advertising this promo. I'm a little salty since I don't think I'll ever get a chance to get the wheel. I have received every other piece of the ship set, and had this been advertised better you can bet I would've watched the stream. Does anyone think Rare may offer a chance at the wheel again?
Missed the Obsidian Wheel
they def will just not sure when. They have released the cup and shovel in multiple ways just keep an eye out.
Also , I def agree that the way they post should include a date and time for main time zones in each country. Simply stating "3:00pm tomorrow" does not cut it for people. I converted the time myself and double checked with some friends. They could post one time for the UK, and one time for the US plus a date.
I know it was definitely on the Sea of Thieves Twitter account (though you may not have an account)
On the Rare Instagram account:
On the Sea of Thieves Facebook account:
In the Official Sea of Thieves Discord:
and I made sure to create a thread on the Forums (even had a handy little countdown timer and everything!)
The “Airs tomorrow” component was curious. Tomorrow where in the World? Posts like those would be better as “Tomorrow 4th April at 6am GMT” for people to convert to their local time and date.
Also @BETRAYME84 I’ve missed out on items before when I hadn’t checked Twitter on a daily basis. I don’t use Facebook or Instagram and didn’t know there was an official Discord channel.
It’s really hard to catch useful posts in Twitter without scrolling through endless pet videos. I have to open Twitter, go to search, then search for Seaofthieves then check recent posts for possible useful information.
It all depends on the time slot as well. Rare can't specifically control that all the time but depending on the time zone/country it hits in the middle of the work day/school day. Not everyone works at a computer or has the ability to sit on their phone even for 15 minutes. So i hope they offer another way to get some of these cosmetics they have done via stream.
@bootmaclir that’s true.
I just love the “How do I get the XYZ” Spam in the Mixer chat every time an event occurs.
@triheadedmonkey Wow, I am impressed at the amount of work you put in! I can't blame anyone but myself. However, if this we're put on the loading screen in-game under what's new, this would be ideal. Unfortunately for me I only have 2 of the options above, and only use one of them on a regular basis. I just hope to get another opportunity. Thanks for all the hard work put on, I am sure you helped quite a few people score the wheel.
No Twitter, no Instagram, no Facebook, no discord. Out of those four I would only consider getting discord.
It would make sense for Rare to advertise this stuff on their own forums or at least on their website. Why go through outside message boards while skipping over their own?
Like I've said before, if it wasn't for @triheadedmonkey I would miss a lot of this stuff. Keep up the good work mate.Ahoy maties!
