Proposal: Expand Private Crew Mode to Support Larger Friend Groups

  • Currently, Private Crew sessions in Sea of Thieves are limited to four players per ship. While this works well for smaller crews, it restricts larger groups of friends who would like to enjoy the game together in a coordinated and social environment.

    I would like to suggest an improvement to the Private Crew mode:
    • Allowing players to invite more than four friends into a private session.
    • Providing options to sail multiple ships within the same private server, so larger groups can create their own fleets without relying on unreliable matchmaking workarounds.

    This feature would greatly enhance the cooperative and social experience for communities, streamers, and friend groups who want to play together in a more organized way, while still keeping the session private and free from random players.

    By enabling this, Sea of Thieves could better support the many dedicated groups of players who see the game as a platform for shared adventures rather than just a four-person crew experience.

    That why they have "Fleets" coming to SoT...

    Exactly what they said "Fleets" will be for.

    Sure...but you still have to deal with Safer Seas. All the limitations and such. But this wont "enhance" anything. Just make players wish more SS would allow stuff...Oh and I think....its a paid for thing? I cant remember.

  • Do you actually pay attention to social channels or anything? ALL of what you asked for is already going to be put into the game.

    You know as well as I, there announcement of these changes are poor. Kids don’t match the channels or social and even if they did, YT tends to hide new video uploads. Even if you follow.

  • It's part of the planned features in future updates - safer seas fleets.

    "Custom Servers
    We recognise that Sea of Thieves, at its heart, is about player storytelling – and so over the past year we have been developing a brand new toolset designed to unleash community creativity. These Custom Server features will be available to players in early 2026 as part of a new subscription model, and will come with a whole host of other benefits as part of the premium package.

    Custom Servers will offer a range of different features, including a private customisable sandbox. With switches, toggles and commands to curate the server experience, subscribers will be able to do things such as spawn enemies and loot on command, turn off AI enemies and ensure that the environment is fit for whatever shenanigans they want to set up.

    They’ll also be able to run Safer Seas Fleets, filling a server full of friends and larking about to their heart’s content, all while earning rewards at the same levels available in the solo version of Safer Seas. And finally, a cinematic camera will offer players a toolset similar to that used by our very own Video team when they’re putting together those beautiful gameplay trailers.

    Although this subscription service is landing next year, we’ve taken the decision to announce it nice and early so that our Partners and creative communities can start making plans sooner rather than later. We want to build this toolset in partnership with the community, and running it as a subscription model means that we can ensure ongoing investment into and development of Custom Servers as a platform.

    We can’t wait to get this feature into players’ hands and build a toolset that empowers all facets of Sea of Thieves’ player base – creative, competitive or otherwise – to craft even more amazing experiences that they can share with their communities."

  • @burnbacon If they had paid attention to anything or even been in one of the many SoT discords they would have heard about it by now.
