While connection issues were high on Rare’s to-do list for Sea of Thieves , smaller problems have had to be put on the back burner. In fact, Rare has even had to disable some features in the game, like achievements, for the time be

It's not exactly a new feature, but Rare also confirmed that they'll be adding at least one new mysterious figurehead. The shadowy teaser image, oddly enough, looks exactly like a shark-shaped figurehead that was already shown in a previously released screens

The new ship comes with two masts and two cannons on each side. It is designed for an optimal crew of three people, so even if you cannot find a fourth friend to conquer the seas with, you can still have a viable competitive crew. Honestly, I do believe that this is one of the best new features we've seen from Rare since lau

A recent patch to Sea of Thieves already extended the game's ship respawn distance , preventing players from respawning their ship within sight of the ship that sunk them, but Rare states in the developer update that the studio has plans to improve that aspect of the game even further. Rare also wishes to address other problems with spawn-killing by adding in-game reminders to players of the "Scuttle" option, and possibly even moving ships to other world instances to avoid prolonged cases of spawn-kill

It would also enable a smaller group to crew a galleon, or even bring a larger crew aboard a sloop, though it will not lift the four-player cap . According to Rare, this change is one of the most requested by play

In the 10 years since Android launched, it's amazing how far mobile gaming has come, and at Google we are proud that so many innovative and entrepreneurial game developers are using Play and Android to reach a global audien

It’s no secret that Sea of Thieves has had quite a few issues since its launch last week. Most notably, players have been slamming the servers , trying to get online and partake of Rare’s pirate sandbox. Unfortunately, that influx of players has also led to several other problems, including some bugs with the strategy game cheats|Https://strategyreviewer.com/’s messaging sys

Rare doesn’t have a timeline for when achievements will be re-enabled, but the developer hopes to have everything up and running by the end of the week. For now, however, players will not unlock any achievements while playing Sea of Thiev

At E3 this year, Rare dropped a brand new trailer, showcasing two of its upcoming updates - Cursed Sails, which landed recently, and Forsaken Shores, which the team is preparing for September. With that, one major feature, which lots of people expected to make it into the game much sooner, got confirmed by the trailer and Rare’s employees in the next few days. And with Cursed Sails we got skeleton ships roaming the Sea of Thieves , and this is what the update is all about. If you ask me, this is a good reason for you to get back on the deck and prepare for some pirat

The good news, though, is that Rare is still tracking player’s progress on Sea of Thieves achievements, so when they are re-enabled the achievements completed should unlock. Granted, Rare also said that players should receive all of their missing gold and reputation once things calmed down with the servers, and many reported not receiving everything they earned. In other words, don’t be surprised if some achievement progress is not entirely accurate once everything is re-enab

I’ve played plenty of Sea of Thieves and never have I met a single cheater. When it comes to Rare’s pirate title, cheaters are those elusive mythical beasts that we have all heard of, but no one has ever met. Sure, Rare did acknowledge that some people did manage to cheat at some point, but they were swiftly dealt with and this will continue to be the case in the future. Rare, just like Microsoft, do not take lightly to people exploiting their software, so quick and harsh bans are their answer to any cheating they manage to detect. Thankfully, this means that Sea of Thieves is quite clean of such nasty and disgraceful a

That's not to say that the publisher is without exclusive titles, with the likes of Crackdown 3 and State of Decay 2 being the two known exclusives arriving in 2018, but when stacked up against Sony's God of War and Nintendo's Super Smash Bros. the choice of which console to purchase likely won't lean in the Xbox One's favor. This is a subjective take to be sure, but there's truth in recognizing the popularity and raw sales numbers from each of the franchises included; at the end of the day Smash and God of War are just bigger na
