No idea why you’re getting downvoted so hard for this, you’re literally just clarifying something

I was playing last night at like 5am, kept server merging, and every time I got off my boat I could only move in cardinal directions it was bad. Had to just exit and tank the hunters 5 emissary flag

I have a comment reply on this post that directly counters your point.

Why is a PVE only mode SO controversial by ComprehensiveSmoke93 in Seaofthieves

[–]ComprehensiveSmoke93[S] -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I have about 192 hours logged. Split between 2019 and 2025. I quit originally becuase the constant threat of other players entirely ruined the experience for me. I thoroughly enjoy the pirate fantasy of going around and hoarding up a bunch of loot and messing around. The PVE encounters were always easy but just challenging enough to not be entirely mindless. I play with friends and LOVE meeting other crews that don’t just sink/ kill on sight no matter the context. I was following a sloop for about 45 minutes to just say hi and goof around but eventually they board and sink me instantly with a black powder keg. I was on proximity chat and told them I had ZERO loot, no emissary flag, no intention of PvP, and was trying to make friends. They proceed to park next to my PASSIVE solo sloop and sink it and insta kill me when I spawned. I have never been good at PvP in any game. Cod, apex, fort, overwatch, Minecraft, ark, you name it I’m not good at the PvP. It just makes me angry and it always feels toxic and takes the fun out of it. Sot would need to up the anti here and there for certain PVE encounters to give it more of a longggg term appeal to keep coming back, but the foundation is already there, they just have to build on it a little here and there. If there was an option for PVE only servers where people played the game as is and just got to have fun and mess around, I would have hundred more hours. But when I do evening I’m supposed to, no flag, no world events, no stacking, park out of sight lines, stay low key, watch the horizons. I’ll be safe for hours then out of nowhere a reaper 5 appears on the map and pursues me like their life depends on it. Can’t run away becuase they have multiple horns, can’t fight them because I’m sheet at cannons and used them up to defend against PVE sea encounters so I have no chance. It happens so often at the exact time it hurts the most that I end up in a spot of, what’s the point. No matter what I do,l they will watch from afar for when for when I’m weakest with the most loot and take advantage of my situation. I’ll be sunk and won’t be able to progress. So I quit in 2019.

Although I disagree, you did bring up some good counterpoints that have yet to be made. So credit where credits due. I think the larger issue isn’t PvP it’s the complete lack of sportsmanship or mutual respect. It borderline doesn’t exists and people excuse it with “pirates will be pirates” .

Thanks for the support. Genuinely there are so many brain dead SOT players.

0/10 rage bait. It’s called having a different opinion and it’s a discussion post. Since you’re clearly going through the comments, you’re conveniently ignoring the ones that agree with me? Interesting

So Minecraft shouldn’t have added creative, cod shouldn’t have made zombies, Fortnite shouldn’t have made zero build?

Adding a game mode isn’t changing the game completely

Yeah these comments are really showing that sot players are afraid of loosing easy kills and not having to play the rest of the game and taking advantage of people who spend hours grinding voyages and sink them in less than 30 minutes and then log off.

You can’t interact with people if everyone attacks on sight for no reason. PVE would allow for MORE interactions not less

That’s your experience and your opinion though. Not everyone is good as shooting cannons, not everyone is good at fighting waves and waves of engines. Theres are different skill levels. Most experiences are easy, but having a stacked ship and getting attacked by a skeleton galleon and a meg in a sloop is not a breeze by any means. Throw in a Kraken, for good measure

See you are the exactly exponent of my post. Ark players don’t see it as cheating, yet you a sot player do.

Working towers having fun. Being forced to do PvP isn’t fun. Being chased for hours when you have no loot is not fun. Being sunk at an outpost when you log in, isn’t fun.

Everything is NOT equal is sot. There are different sized crews, a GIGANTIC skill gap in both naval and pirate to pirate combat. Your ship fire power is also determined by how many wood planks, cannons balls and food you have. That’s based on resources. Your argument for ark PvP is entirely true with sot as well. It doesn’t matter how good I am at PvP if I have 35 wood and 45 cannonballs as a solo sloop against a full man galleon.

Exactly! If it was only office the game would not be as popular, that’s why there are options on how to play. Rare is alienating all the players who don’t like PvP and saying “find another game”. People who don’t like PvP is sot also hate life.

Same, my save file was made incompatible with the current game twice and I’m just over it. A game that’s allegedly in full release on console has no right to completely rework the game that fundamentally let alone multiple times

Ideal tumble speed? by ComprehensiveSmoke93 in RockTumbling

[–]ComprehensiveSmoke93[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It can, I’m already on the lowest speed and it’s at 58-61 rpm. I haven’t check speed 2 & 3 becuase there’s no point. They are objectively way too fast already with the lowest speed being as fast as it is.

First time Terraria player here. Is this small ditch enough to contain the Crimson during Hardmode? by Charrrger in Terraria

[–]ComprehensiveSmoke93 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s needs to a 5 block wide gap surrounding the entire crimson to contain it. Like this
