Various members of the development team at Rare Ltd. recently took to Reddit for an AMA (ask me anything) related to everything and anything dealing with Sea of Thieves . There were dozens upon dozens of different questions answered in the thread, but these are some of the more interesting nuggets of info that we fo
Like hair colour we’re working on the design of how we get tattoos to players. We love the idea of unlocking a tattoo after an in game event. Our IPG tech means we can do this, we think it’s super cool and we’ll look at it post lau
Up until this past week, Rare has remained especially quiet regarding what content players could expect in the Sea of Thieves Hungering Deep update. A terrifying AI threat that may or may not be a giant shark was the studio’s only admission, along with hints of a legend to discover surrounding the beast of the de
Merrick offers this clue to look for the “fin-rock that stands in a lagoon” and it’s very close by! Head to the center of Shark Bait Cove and look for the fin-shaped rock to find Merrick’s Journal XX which has two pages. The first hint is that two ships had to work together, using the drum instrument, to summon the giant megalodon shark. The second hint, “red haired and fair of face, her tavern stands at a shining place!” which refers to Tina at Golden Sands Outpost (E
I think we’re only ever likely to cover a few months ahead to maintain mystery (so you can be surprised and delighted) and so we can be reactive. Things will change as Sea of Thieves evolves. We want to have the time to reveal what the features mean for players before we put them in their hands. We’ve taken a show not tell policy for the entire project so far and we’re committed to t
This excitement carried through some additional beta runs, but after Sea of Thieves saw full release this sheen did not carry very far at all. Unfortunately, many players have already grown a little weary of the Strategy Game Money Guide|Https://Strategyreviewer.Com/‘s repetition, with a critical reception that has been quick to point out that Sea of Thieves has a problem with variety , both in terms of gameplay and in terms of enemy types. That’s without going into some of the launch connectivity issues that have plagued the g
When it comes to the brass tacks, the title is all about your choices and the freedom to do as you please in a vast sea that is yours for the taking. That’s the whole meaning of the #BeMorePirate hashtag that’s become a staple of Rare’s social media campai
Make sure everyone has the drum and tattoo equipped (can equip tattoo at the chest by Merrick) and wait for another ship to arrive here, doing the same limited time quest, and once five players are here all playing the tune, the tattoos will g
I think we already established that the Sea of Thieves community is awesome. It’s tight-knit, it’s mostly friendly, and most people do not take it personally when their ship is sunk and their booty – stolen. After all, that’s what the game is all about, right? But, surely, most people would not attack an empty ship, just to get some cheap laughs by watching it sink to the bottom of the sea, right? Well, wrong. In fact, often you will find that other crews do not attack you for your loot, they will not even check if you have loot. They just want to make you feel miserable by having to respawn over, and over, and over ag
Rare is preparing for the quickly approaching release of Sea of Thieves ‘ first major content update, The Hungering Deep , by tantalizing players with a tease of all the new content. The official webpage for The Hungering Deep is now live, filled with exciting content revels for the forthcoming update like customizable flags, customizable scars and tattoos, and the introduction of an all-new instrument, the d
Flags – The days of all pirates on the sea running a white flag will be ending, as custom flags will soon join the slew of already available ship customizations. That selection includes the ol’ skull and crossbones, natura
Beddall’s comments certainly match up with how some players are feeling about Sea of Thieves . Although the game is an enjoyable one, there is a sense of frustration that the gameplay on offer doesn’t give as much variety that would be hoped from such a highly anticipated release . As such, it’s easy to see why some users feel as though Sea of Thieves has not progressed enough from testing to really be considered a full launch right
Beddall, whose work on Sea of Thieves can be seen on his portfolio page , went on to explain a little more of Rare’s thinking during development, suggesting that ” the plans and ideas for the game were bigger than what was released ,” but that the core gameplay loop of the title never really shifted. Whereas Beddall himself was hoping for more by way of ” dungeons and raids ,” instead he shares the genuine concerns of players over the lack of variety found in the full release of the game. His experience of working on Sea of Thieves was one where Rare was ” really anal about every detail of the game ” when more focus could have been put into the gameplay itself. ” I have never worked on a game that was developed so slowly, ” he s
