Even this beginning step was a brief moment of disappointment for me. Initially, I thought I was going to carve out My Page own adventure with a pirate I created. Although it seems like an arbitrary complaint, the direction the game takes with its progression makes this counterintuit

Rare then is shown to care deeply about bringing Banjo-Kazooie into Sea of Thieves in assorted ways. Rare's shown to have Banjo-Kazooie rewards in the works. And Rare has the opportunity to start a Banjo-Kazooie event in Sea of Thieves for the 20th anniversary if it so chooses. The stars could be align

With little time left in 2018, Rare is already preparing for next year, beginning with a new PVP mode called The Arena . There is no release date as of yet, but players should expect it to launch early in 2019. According to Polygon , The Arena is not a Battle Royale mode, although the game mode will allow players to compete with one another quickly. The Arena will pit gamers against one another in a search for treasure. The new PVP mode will include a new tavern and a new trading company, The Sea Dogs, who will face off against the players as w

"We are storing all awarded achievements, and are working to deliver these for all affected players. There is some groundwork in the patch arriving [today] that enables us to then deliver the delayed achievements via a service-side change, but ETA on this is a little loose whilst we work on the plan. We are hoping to enable this by the end of the week, and will share more information so

Sea of Thieves now has its first Pirate Legend, but other players aren't exactly happy about how this high achievement has been reached. Rare's pirate-themed title has been drawing players in with its gameplay and colorful world, and although the game has had its fair share of launch issues nonetheless the allure of earning untold treasures has proven rather tempting for gam

This has resulted in something of a backlash, causing some serious arguments over on the Sea of Thieves Reddit and even a Twitter hashtag of #NotMyPirateLegend . It's certainly understandable why some are angry about the first Pirate Legend, particularly given the prestige of the status itself and exactly how time consuming it is to reach the rank. However, there's something a little poetic about someone cheating their way to the top spot in a game revolving around pirates - after all, the game is called Sea of Thiev

Scars and tattoos can now be added to player avatars to further make pirates more unique, there's a new flag system for ships, and even a brand new instrument (a drum!) needed to summon the mighty megalodon shark. But first, the quest itself! How does a pirate and their crew start The Hungering Deep's limited time event, Merrick's Quest ? And how do we get the drums?! Allow us to explain, in det

On top of that, Sea of Thieves players are still seeing a delay in gold and reputation rewards and there has been some server instability noted on the forums. Not all of these issues will be fixed by this week’s patch, but Rare is hoping to get the more pressing problems ironed out. At the very least, this patch should put the game on the path towards stability and new content releases , even if some problems still pers

As you begin your journey to become a pirate legend, you'll first have to select a pirate to represent you throughout your swashbuckling antics. Eight different variations of the avatar will appear on-screen that you can choose from. If you're not quite sure if you want to commit to one of the pirates, you can mark them as a favorite so they do not disappear when you decide to refresh the gr

Nonetheless, it's unlikely that Prod1gyX will be seen as the true Legend of the game any time soon. At the very least, players may find solace in the fact that the streamer was able to explain a little more of what's available once the rank of Pirate Legend is gained. As it turns out, not only does the player get a set of nifty gear and a nice new hideout after solving a quick riddle, but they then have a new faction called Athena's Fortune that has its own set of legendary voyages. It may not be anything entirely new, but at least it's something extra that takes away from the need to earn gold qui

All in all, though, Sea of Thieves players aren't happy about the situation. It comes at a fractious time for the game itself, after a former artist on the title suggested that the devs knew Sea of Thieves was repetitive in nature. With some asking for more from the title, should those disappointed in the Pirate Legend content (and the way that it was reached) make a big enough noise it may cause Rare to give the game some twe

It’s official, Sea of Thieves is getting a PVP mode. Earlier this year it was reported that the action-adventure game was considering adding a Battle Royale mode . Game developer Rare’s design director, Mike Chapman stated that the interest was there but that the developer wanted to create a twist to the game mode. Evidently this is exactly what Rare has done, creating a PVP mode with a few extra flourishes to tie back to the rest of the g
