FIRST LOOK AT SEASON 12/13/14 IN SEA OF THIEVES!!

[@BoxyFreshTV]

What are your guys thoughts on Sea of Thieves in 2024?!

[@Voided_Sky]

I’m really going to like the new weapons

[@themodfather9382]

weird

[@Fortenhell]

the scattershot has a limited range. So I thing, that's fine. I am worried about the skeleton bomb and tucking. About that harpoon you can carry around: as long as it takes a weapon slot, I think it could be fine...we'll have to see!

[@moz7526]

Great ideas can't see them being implemented with speed or effectiveness and without breaking the game each update, great ideas and direction though

would be funnier if the throwing knives when hitting a player it stays in the player. then you can visibly see if you get hitregged

Can't wait to see Boxy, Beard, and LD ruling the seas on the Burning Blade lol

[@scuffedduff4613]

Skeleball spam gonna be mayhem 😂

[@filterflo_74]

they gonna be really rare so i dont think so

[@Ladosligese]

lets lag out the servers .. cant handle 6 ships .. but hey lets make it so there will be 100s of skellys on ships for the anti boarder strat ..

[@alyx8815]

I’m guessing there can only be up to 3 skeles per person and throwing them just either replaces the past ones or only spawns up to the number of dead ones

[@KPtheViewer]

Box (and/or Edits), it’s been a hot minute since caught the content. Just wanted to say, it’s as good as ever. Whether SoT keeps popping off or fizzles out, it’s the personality and humor why we watch, y’all are gonna have a solid backing no matter what you do.

[@MonkeBuisness]

this honestly might be the biggest update sot has ever seen

[@Xolaress]

Love how Boxt was surprised by walking on a harpoon rope but not skeleton cannon balls in the beginning.

[@dogsoldier8187]

I think the wind tool can be part of the tactic on how solo sloop players can take bigger crews. Just take the wind horn a row boat and a few gunpowder kegs and you have yourself a speedy suicide bomb.

[@Drew-o8v]

Lmaoooo omg why did I think of this I gotta try this 😂😂😂😂

[@Pieman2008i]

As a solo slooper I'm worried but open minded. For years we've spent honing our ability and now it seems more open to luck and crew size.

[@CaptainRockoBD]

How so…? They literally give you an ability to have npcs on your ship lol.

[@Sabastian719]

Dude this is such a stupid comment…

[@hornshwagel5700]

@@CaptainRockoBDit’s also way easier to board, when you’re solo getting boarded means you’re cooked, 3 skellies aren’t stopping a below average player led alone a semi capable one

[@mrnoodle3777]

@@Sabastian719 what are you butthurt that people are critical of Rare?

[@aidendavies4648]

Stfu. New weapons and Mechanics is not worrysom lmaooo

[@baron75]

A cool idea for the bonecaller could be that maybe you'd get unique skellies related to the trading company you're an emmisary for: Gold Hoarders=Gold Skellies, Order of Souls=Shadow Skellies, Merchants=Plant Skellies, Reapers=Bonecaller Immunity?, No Emmisary=Reg Skellies

[@XtremeDogg]

Good idea but rare probably wont do it.. Considering it took them this long to incorporate new items. I mean some diverse pve ships would be great or pve bounties take down legendary captains. This firebeard thing is close. (Actually captains on the ship not just skeles)

[@dtubss1616]

The lead developer is coming to my college next week, will keep you informed!

[@ForTheOmnissiah]

>Never kept us informed

[@Requiem-mp9de]

no way bro didnt know sot was a thing in december 13th, 2014

[@MousierSarah]

I feel like the grapple gun should be more like the trident; like it's just a broken harpoon you can find or get from destroying a harpoon rowboat. That way boarders would have to be careful about how they use it, as dying would leave the grapple on the boarded boat.

[@mrboxingrandy]

100% agree this would be a good way to fix it. Takes away the whole overkill of 4 people constantly back to back deckshotting onto your ship unless they go destroy 12 or more rowboats first. Even as a solo sloop I didn't mind boarders but that doesn't mean they need to constantly respawn on top of the deck without a load screen because they have a spider man gun.

[@darkandfire]

Idk i feel this would make it worse then better. As if it replaces one of your weapons you board with only have 1 offensive weapon at your disposal. But if its a trident like weapon all anyone needs to do is get close enough to your ship and harpoon over to blunder snipe you. Their teammates aswell could be shooting at you with their snipers aswell before heading over themselves.

[@mrboxingrandy]

@@darkandfire There's a weapon box to swap weapons on every ship. Poked a hole in that theory pretty quick lol.

[@mrboxingrandy]

Harpoon board, snipe or double flintlock either one you bring, blunder bomb a few times and just quick swap the harpoon gun out real quick at the weapon box lol.

[@darkandfire]

@@mrboxingrandy ye but if you allowed them to access that. Then thats a skill issue. If they killed you its their reward.

[@thedroidnationshow]

They hate solo sloopers. 😂

[@Zynarch97]

Skeletons being able to find tuckers is not a concern for me because majority of tucking takes advantage of player ignorance so more experienced players more than likely would find tuckers anyway.

[@ThelolipopCreeper]

A lot of less experienced players know about tucking as a concept and will run around swinging at their barrels or blundering the crow's nest trying to find you, but just don't know all of the spots. I hope that they at least make these player spawned skeletons unaware of you while in a hide emote.

[@TheGoldPrecision]

I think the harpoon gun is balanced pretty well given it takes a weapon slot and isn't really a weapon. So sure they can board you easier, but doing so they will just have 1 gun or a sword. Gonna be a lot of fun can't wait to return to the game

[@XtremeDogg]

Yea but 3 - 4 sword lords camping a solo is no fun.

[@Elhant]

​@@XtremeDogg also after they're done blendering your pirate, they just switch back to double weapon, and 1 guy goes back to their ship. gg ez

[@chrispchicken3689]

​@@Elhant yeah I agree. Pretty worrisome, unless they change it so you can't use the armory on an enemy's ship so they'd be stuck with 1 weapon

[@ForTheOmnissiah]

@@Elhant Not to mention I think harpoon-gun + blunder might potentially be a strong combo, even if they don't get a chance to swap

[@MBT06]

I'm worried for that grapple gun. It better be hard to find the ammo..

[@XtremeDogg]

i agree 3 -4 sweats launching off to a solo ship camping and splattering Skele-bombs. Yea wonderful.

[@kiro-fo9qg]

I agree, boarding will be inevitable and cheesable which just makes it a nightmare for everyone.

As a (mostly) solo slooper the amount of new boarding opportunities make me glad that we’re gonna have the bone caller and traps haha

[@crilith07]

Thanks for the upload. I’m having a rough day and this helped me take my mind off of things

[@xNightHawk32]

There’s a lot we don’t know. But I’m excited for all of it. As someone who enjoys tucking from time to time, I’m hoping if you’re tucked then the skeletons won’t mess with you. But if you make your presence known, then you’re fair game.

[@JackCabbit20]

11:05 😂 I love how fast he goes from :D to D:

[@Brother_Pauly]

The reaction when the wind caller came out. Priceless

[@Fano2311]

I think adding more challenges to solos will make them smarter and deadlier than a lot of full crews. A solo sloops crew has its strength in its cunning But yeah against competent crews you’ll probably still sink. you take your wins where you can get them

[@AnonKar98]

this is the end of solo slooper's, ggs

[@XtremeDogg]

I agree looks pretty bad... just grab a wind horn and rowboat for treasure now.

[@Drew-o8v]

Literally bro as a solo slooper our time is done it's been nice guys ggs 🤙🤙

[@christopherfulkerson1480]

Noooo my sloop is still young this can’t happen 😭

[@SupSrsRAGER]

That windcaller reaction was a 10/10 😂 😂

[@Stordyr]

What's going to happen is, that one the burning blade is out, they'll dive out. They need more ships on a server to go against this monster of a ship... to bring in actual risk.... no one does the SOSS anymore....

[@goldlemon7962]

I was testinf double gunning with the DB flintlock, and I gotta say it’ll be my new fav combo

[@ishiblack7497]

Skeletons granade is literally two side blade. Its can be used by bigger crews to bully solos, but also can help solo players escape chase when used right. Imagine you get close to chased ship, but suddenly frink bonebang spawn on your ship and target escape during org......i mean chaos 💀💀🤬💀💀🌊🌊🤣

[@ch33seweasel42]

It only took about :40 seconds but you can see the spot where the gears start to turn.

[@namepending9241]

Boxy when will your stream the reveal trailer?

[@Tuck213]

I'm really, really excited for all of this! 2023 has been so dreadful with controversial updates like Safer Seas that I stopped playing. But this is what I wanted for so long! New toys, new boarding techniques, a new world event! 2024 is gonna restore my faith in the game!

[@hellraisor21]

Fyi sloops do have a advantage over the brig in one way and a galleon its physics in real life if the sloop sails into the winds sails foward the ship will go faster than the brig doing the same thing.

[@Broken_valley]

I’m solo all the time and I’m pumped af for everything I’m excited to see boxys opinions (pre vid comment

[@TikachooYT]

This is going to bring so much life into the game and I'm all for it! SoT 2024 Meta, award winning game, lets get it!!

[@SassySapphireUK]

As a solo player, looking forward to all the new ways l will get dumped on. Gonna be so funny. 😂

[@datokirvalidze5416]

9:00 yeah they should make them to not attack players who aren't moving or while doing specific emotes

[@eliedr123]

fak the skillgap, Its a game. Fun comes first

[@BB-kb5br]

If they make a crab pet I want a Rat too. My sloop is named Rizzo the Rat so it'd fit with that and the pocket rat emote.

[@trewts]

Me and my mates left this game because of how punishing the boarding is for us casuals and how unrewarding is the treasure carrying simulator. 1 sweat lord is enough to grief you and ruin your evening adventure and they are making this easy for them to board. Why?? Boarding should be a challenge since you basically win if you board non sweaty crew. I really liked the atmosphere and sandbox feeling of this game, why can't it be more pirating and less sweating/griefing? Naval battles are epic but it's overshadowed by boarding meta.

[@bigthing2012]

With these new weapons that are going to be added to the game, I agree it’s going to be 100 times harder for New players and solo Sloopers. The boarding is going to be insane for them to handle.

[@FeloniusFate]

I just wana see how many skeletons I can have summoned at once. Can I fill my ship with them??? Like over 50 on a sloop? Lol

[@mikless6936]

Theres a cap for sure

[@XtremeDogg]

I'm sure they have a de-spawn timer and very small health pool .

[@ch33seweasel42]

Oh yeah I didn't even think about that, letting people plop them on their own ship basically gives them a Automatic Tuck Checker. To be fair, I never tuck, so this doesn't bother me for me, but it does affect a lot of content I watch... so that is actually a bit of a bummer. I was asking myself why I was watching a 4th streamer's reaction, and this is why. Thanks for clearing that up, nobody else had said that. I believe them too on hit reg. But it's still dog water and gonna be dog water. I play the game despite it's many flaws, not because I don't realize there's a problem. Sword/Knife for me, are you kidding me? I don't need no guns and I know many a pirate who feel the same.

[@Ethernet480]

When are we getting double sword 😅

[@countdooku2759]

Haven’t played since season 5 is it worth coming back

[@Kapkeh]

Yes. Hope to see you back on the seas Captain.

[@xNightHawk32]

I’m excited for what’s coming. Especially the throwing knife. I’m probably going to do sword and knife. 🗡 🔪 That will be a good combo. I can’t wait.

[@gurreg1524]

So they removed quickswitching and added a weapon that shoots damn near faster than quick switching and you only need to click one button instead of 3?

How many skeles can you spawn on a ship? Can you just have a boat of 70 skeles? Also…RIP tucks…people worried about tucks will just spawn skeles on their own boat

They are adding new weapons just to release existing skins for them as "new skins" so they dont have to recolor

[@megnugget2631]

If SoT becomes a wack party game take on the sandbox genre like Smash or The Finals I'm all here for it. Even as a solo who will undoubtedly get shit on. At least I'll have fun while I do one crazy awesome thing only to get boarded by 5 people with grapple guns and power shots with skeletons all over. At least I'll have skeletons too, and who knows maybe I'll jump ship and board Flameheart who's to say?! And honestly what does happen to your ship after pledging to Flameheart? Does it just literally dip until you're done?

[@vialgabravo159]

now i think we should wait for it to see how it plays, but i dont like that they are lowering the skill ceiling again, larger crews will always have an advantage, i dont want to deal with pve in pvp battles, i like grappling hooks but not in this game now you dont need to aim to do a deckshot or even get close to the ladders, lowering the skill ceiling even more, and runners are going to stack the air horn thing and use it till their fingertips bleed, cuz im sure you get those by pveing and im not doing that

[@FulcrumTCW]

I'm torn. I like some of the ideas, but some feel like a stretch. Honestly, I'd rather have the game as it was a few seasons ago..like before they broke the game, because it was actually playable. BUT, I'll go in with an open mind I suppose...BUT does a brig really need more wind?AND why aren't they fixing the current game over adding the whole kitchen sink first?

[@justinking6744]

We were supposed to get a crab?

[@isaacsanders695]

this is good all of it retrospectively i hope they make the solo play more difficult. As someone who plays all types of ships these all give players the ability to create larger crew fights, or give them the ability to run and sell their hard worked loot which some people will stack all day. So now this will increase the skill sealing to steals and make it much harder for solo players to do all the steals that are currently easy if you play to a rogues code.

[@DBaum-zb1uz]

Make it more difficult for solo? WTF... I must be playing a different game.
