[@CrimsonFangTV]

Yes. These are the words I always look for. I’ve told my buddies I started playing with years ago that the game is still fun but it has NEVER felt the same as that first month or so. Waiting to get home every night to experience the pirate game once more. Surreal. And never to return

My dad (60) has been playing since beta and has thousands of hours, maxed out factions (including reapers) and and was 12th in the world in terms of gold count once a couple years back. I have many fond memories of running around trying to learn the game (and failing) as a teenager and im happy to see a new audience getting to enjoy this game lile we did.

I always love to see new people experiencing this game. I love stealing and sinking other ships but when i see new players i board them, talk to them, ask if they need any help to give them the best experience possible. My goal is to keep those new players playing the game c:

[@Nicholas-iu9jb]

It’s so funny to me when I’m sinking a ship and the new players yell at me like I’m not a new player myself. YOU ARE ON NONCROSSPLAY SERVERS. I cannot cheat. We cannot exploit the game like the funny launch. I simply enjoy the game more than you that I’m willing to put the time in to learn the mechanics to get better at pvp

[@cadaverouspawn]

That's how my crew formed. Our sloop got boarded by a much more experienced brig crew who were more interested in a laugh and we played along instead of getting pissy. They were hilarious though, that helped. Sailed with those boys for a couple years after that, got to see Glitterbeard...great times,

[@djirate052380]

In 200+ hrs I've had 5 wholesome interactions with older players. After people have fixed my boat I've been spawn camped relentlessly while never fighting back and never speaking. Ive been attacked and chased on sight more times than I can count. I have been crap talked over and over while killing me. I have been sunk on a fresh spawn into game numerous times. The experience hasnt been fun. On PS5 servers on the other hand I have had a great time. Wholsome interactions with older players who play ps5 now snd are very helpful. I have been attacked a few times by older players on ps5 but nowhere near the amount of times on crossplay servers. I'm and old dog and I played in CoD lobbies in my mid 20s. I played caleco vision. Im old but the level of immaturity and disrespectfulness of kids and people in general is outstanding these days. SMH!

[@cadaverouspawn]

@@djirate052380 sorry to hear that. when we came across crews like that we'd sink them. hopefully you find more decent people.

[@svenvdv2880]

Im a new player with a brig crew and we’re all new and this guy who played since launch and had all the curses and shit boarded us saying how he was gonna help us. But then after like 10 minutes of sailing with us he started calling us morons for missing harpoon shots and not luring the ashen boss correctly? And in the end we were gonna sell our loot and he tried to kill us but we one shot him with a blunderbuss lol

Yesterday I met a 2 player brig crew. Had to explain the allience system to them. Felt refreshing.

[@millyardopeacecraft9778]

As a new ps5 who has been gaming since the original atari and nintendo. This has been added to my favorite games of all time list. It does just about everything right imo. It feels like the game to end the console wars in my opinion.

[@Terrorstoat]

Newbie PS5 player here and can confirm, absolutely loving this game rn. Honestly just sailing around and watching the sun set/rise over the seas keeps me happy. Well until a level 5 reaper ship appears and sinks us for the loot that we just sold at the outpost we are docked at. There are some good people out there though, run into a fair few vets that, for the most part, are happy to chat share supplies or in 1 instance help us run a fort and let us keep the loot. Fun game!!

that's the good stuff

[@calitoosh45]

im also new on ps5. Having a great time but i must say that i havent met a single friendly player until now. Everyone attacking even tho i tell that we have no loot and are new. They just sink us, spam emotes and shout slurs. Weird community.

[@bobmcbob49]

the injection of PS5 players also made the game much more enjoyable, as a casual veteran there's a much lower percentage of hyper-aggressive crews, but at the same time a higher occurrence of weird sub-optimal plays that make things more interesting and less predictable. Like last weekend we had a crew come after us and drop a cannon rowboat to start shooting at us mid fight. It's been well over a year since I've seen someone do something like that instead of the tired chainshot-and-board routine.

[@MsWaveygravey]

This is exactly what I've been enjoying too.

[@HellBlade2504]

As a PS5 player I can honestly say I'm loving the game, it's so fun! I've been grinding the game so much that I have hit pirate legend

I think hourglass is also important for the new player experience because a large chunk of the most skilled pirates are no longer in the open world. Between safer seas and HG your encounters will be closer to average skill

[@stanisawankowski8243]

I myself am a New player, started a few days ago, and I think you just described the feeling I have. Everything is like a New Adventure full of fun.

[@daxxl1]

Veteran players like myself should implement the following rule: Never shoot first

[@BaronVonMott]

I already follow this rule simply because I feel the old "shoot on sight" mentality has made too many players paranoid and toxic. At least these days, those actively searching for PvP have the hourglass as an option instead.

[@daxxl1]

@@BaronVonMott it happend yesterday again. White sailed sloop came at me. Warned him before he was in range to not pick a fight he Cant win. Well.. he sank

[@BaronVonMott]

Back in the day, before really getting to grips with the ways and means of solo slooping, I would often venture into the perilous abyss of Open Crew to find some shipmates. Many times I found only disappointment and rejection, but once or twice I struck gold - brand new players eager to get to grips with the game. Teaching a new pirate how to select voyages, how to sail the ship, how the progression systems work... It's a wonderful experience (if they have the patience to listen, of course), and it feels like you're helping the game as a whole to grow and thrive!

[@zacharyscott3038]

[@matthewgrobel5587]

I was making my own guide for new players that had literally everything I knew about the game in it. I intended to release it on launch day for PS5, but got it half done and have been sitting on it. I should finish it but there are hundreds of guides out there. For reference some of the things it covered were: the what the trading companies are, what emissaries are, each weapon type, how much damage they do and how long each gun takes to reload as well as what weapon combo to use for what scenario, what world events are and how to efficiently complete them, the standard strategy for sinking other ships (chain the mast, death spiral, send boarders to keep them distracted,) what are doubloons and how do I get them? What’s pirate legend? What’s this hourglass doing on my ship? What are crew roles and why should I care? What are the pros and cons of each ship type? Are there benefits to solo slooping? What’s captaincy? Should I rush progression? Do cosmetics indicate skill and what cosmetics should I be wary of out on the sea? And a little more

[@bmkraft715]

you should have continued the post like.. "but i forgot that it is all about the players and the more they find out themselves, the more fun the game gets."

[@TheRauzKindred]

The content and optimization updates coupled with the new playstation players was a breath of fresh air, especially cause a few crewmates of mine can now play the game again without crashing around portals and diving mechanics (as often), and if they do crash they can get back in faster now. Its wonderful to have my crew back together again, and even more joyous that we have newer players to interact with and not just getting our faces kicked in cause we've all gotten rusty from taking a long break from the game lol.

[@Treebeerdz]

I really hope someday they add a racing mode. The game already has great mechanics to have a faction for it, and it would be super fun to have pvp that isnt combat related.

[@meister-xr3oh]

This is actually a pretty interesting idea

[@DROPSHIPCAPTAIN]

Yeah hopefully not add side events that Interfere with gameplay. Example the kraken that randomly spawns on you? Like the game isn’t annoying with its exploits, broken missions, and non-responsive hit boxes. I enjoy your content!!(: I just don’t enjoy this poor excuse for a finalized product that is practically unfixable and unfinished. I’ll come back when everything IS FIXED and not in the current state….. unbelievable.. Look I do not want to argue with all of the pea bodies of the world I don’t have time for them… I do have time to help people out with any game I have access to so it’s easier to play and understand since most games have NO guidance and most of the time you have to actually learn how to play the game solely using broken exploits, glitches and broken mechanics. I have a simple question, who adds fortnite mechanic to a “realistic” game.

[@dashawndotson261]

[@danhoax1988]

I wish I could go back and experience the same feeling that I did when I first played on Sea of Thieves. The excitement, the mystery, the adventure.

[@marmotbro4673]

Around the time the game released on ps5 my friend got it on xbox and she is HOOKED. I am a 900+ hour veteran and have seen pretty much everything this game has to offer, so being the Virgil to her Dante in this new era has been some of the most fun I've had with the game. It really made me take a step back and appreciate everything this game has to offer. She enjoys the Tall Tales, the fishing, just exploring islands, voyages, all the calm PvE like you would expect a new player to, but most of all, she is feral in PvP. It used to feel like you were firmly in two camps, either a PvE or a PvP player, but now it feels like these new players are doing both, as Rare intended. I'm currently teaching her all I know about PvP in between fishing runs and field trips to sunken shrines. The game has never felt more organic. Plus these new crews are so full of piss and vinegar, I haven't had one person run from a fight since season 12 started.

When it first came out, I didn't play it much since I didn't have friends to play it with, I've recently met friends who have it though, and so I recently started playing again, it's been awhile since I last played, so for me, it is borderline the same experience that the new PS5 players have

[@JeSappellePoutre]

Now it feels weird, I used to play with my so called "best friend/brother" until he totally changed and and don't play with me anymore and prefer to hang out and play with his new friends I find it sad we had so much good times on this ship, recently I really hoped that it was getting better until I saw that he did me dirty again and prefered playing with his new friends rather than with me. I just find it sad and I don't know why such a sudden change but that's how life goes I guess I'll just keep the legacy of our ship alone. I wish y'all a happy sailing, especially all the new players coming !

After putting almost 200 hours already into the game on ps5 I can say that this is one of the best games I’ve ever played. grinding hourglass has been a blast and is the absolute BEST way to learn pvp.

im basicly like the new players bc i played the game with some friends like 2 years ago and i was just the one who stayed on the ship bc i was bad and watched it. this made me not rly wanna play again. but now ive started playing with some friends who are also new and we having so much fun.( also safer seas is good. but it does give new players the ilusion of thinking high seas is pvp only and only for if your feeling risky even tho its the main and proper game. you can see this in most mmo's where players usualy stay in safe zones where they keep there look and only go into pvp zones in rare ocasions.)

[@moardinarcanis]

I’m an Xbox/PC player who’s been playing since the Beta. The other day, I was with my crew of pirate legend veterans and we were selling at an outpost when a Brig pulls up on the other side of the island. We recognized the ship. We saw them fighting another brig earlier that day. They turned out to be newbie PlayStation players who managed to run away from some more experienced ones. That more experienced brigantine ended up coming back so we decided to pledge ourselves to this brigantine. We pulled the Galleon around and let ‘em have it! I think we sank that toxic brig four or five times before they got the message. They even once asked us to stop defending them. Of course we refused. At the end of our journey, we taught the newbies a lot about basic mechanics like sword-lunging to get to your boat. As a veteran player, I was more than happy to help them. The next day we logged on again the next day, and a completely different PlayStation player saw that we didn’t attack him immediately and decided to stay close for protection. Apparently he got sunk a few times that session before meeting us. My crew and I have recently decided to help out as many new pirates as possible so we can create a community we can be proud of.

I really enjoy interacting with new players. It reminds me how far I myself have come in the game. I always remind pirates who run, or who lose to me (when I can tell they are new or upset) that I once also got my bones handed to me, picked clean by the blade of those far above me. But there's a certain mindset I developed when playing SoT: You are going to get rolled a LOT before you yourself get rolling, and so far it hasn't failed me yet!

[@LukasMohr-rk3xx]

I love your view. Spending your free time having fun, that's what it's all about.

[@Nebby_smells]

The ability to play the game with new eyes and new experiences is something i envy also. When youve been to every nook and cranny, sailed every square on the map, been to every island, been to every depth, fought on every ship, fought bigger and smaller threats than yourself, it drains you of that wonder and mesmerising world building. Its one of the reasons why I think the game needs a map reset. New islands, new characters, new lore, new story, new landmarks, balancing that could allow for multiple world events perhaps (i.e. a fleet spawn location that allows for other world events to spawn elsewhere so anyone can trigger a fleet by going to the one part of the map or something, just an idea but probably not a good one). It'd give that feeling back to the older players that we miss dearly, and be something to bring newer players in aswell!

[@LyraeleGaming]

I started around January 2019 and had been playing quite a bit. But I quit for a while because I felt solo slooping usually ended up in a lot of toxic moments that made me dislike the game for a while and hadn't realised some of my friends were actually still playing the game.. Anyhow, I think the last time I played before my break was when the Pirates of the Caribbean tall tale had just come out. Seeing the announcement of Safer Seas made me come back last November and there was so much new stuff for me to explore and lots of quality of life updates compared to when I stopped playing. I'm really enjoying being back into the game and I've noticed more veterans are coming back and are quite excited about all the new things as well! I'm really exited for the upcoming seasons, especially the Flameheart ship

I've always tried to be helpful and protect new players. If they have the time to enjoy and learn the game and have good interactions they will stay and increase the longevity of the game. Had a baby pirate the other day we helped. He never said a word the whole time until he was done and he said "thanks for not sinking the newbie" and left the game. That speaks volumes for the reputation of the game. If you help a new pirate in time they may give you the best fights or in the case of one of my crewmates still be sailing with you after almost 5 years.

This reminds me of something that happened the first day Ps5 players were online. I spawned at an outpost, headed down and equipped the throwing knives, was just practicing aiming them when a brig rolled up. I assumed they were gonna sink me but I didn’t care because I didn’t have anything. It ends up being a PS5 crew, one walks up to me holding and Athena and goes “hey I can’t figure out where to sell this can you help me out?” And I swear it was like an angel and devil on my shoulder. On one hand I could blast him in the face for a free Athena, but the angel won out because I want those players in the game. I showed them to the tavern and they went on their way.

For years people in the forums have crusaded against a PvE mode because it would "kill the game" as if having a shallow pool kills swimming or something. Most people want to play the multiplayer PvPvE part, they just don't want to get pushed into the deep end without instructions, and those that do not want to do PvPvE would''ve never played it in the first place so it's not like we are loosing players, if anything we are gaining players because we offer a safe space for them to test stuff out. Also doing tall tales without gettin accosted is kinda nice, it's not like you get money on them anyway.

Captain Falcore, I really liked this video! I subscribed too!

[@KradenkoZA]

@CaptainFalcore, they will never experience the Bobblehead in the sky though. How we miss him...

[@NastPlays]

Well said, Mr Falcore.

I miss the feeling of first setting sail, 2000 hours in the game and i often remember the crewmates i had that moved on. those are the only real moments that made the game fun.

I’m a new player with my husband and friend and we are having a blast! We were trolled a bit at the start as newbz so we went to safer seas and it’s been much better, I just hope Rare expand the safer seas and remove the limits on loot, rep and captaincy, I want it all but without the trolling.

The times I’ve met new players I’ve always tried to help them or protect them from other ships. One time in possibility I met new players flying the reapers and I helped them with their pvp and we met some other crews and had a laugh watching someone get utterly rared

Its true! Ps5 player here and I am freaking loving SoT! Trying desperately to win at least 1 ship battle and making my friends play this with me

[@Elgallo1107]

I had a galleon full of swabbies attack me on my solo guilded quest yesterday, tried to be friendly at first cause I’m not looking to ruin a new players experience but they proceeded to try and sink me, ended up crashing into an island and I sunk them in a couple of minutes

[@MonkeyD.Usopp434]

This should be the official game trailer!!!

[@RaginPooh]

I’m new to the game and I LOVE it!! I had no idea how much content was added and I’m loving playing this with friends. FYI, I’m an Xbox guy. 😂 I knew about SOT and tried it once. I found it boring back then and the learning curve was very steep for this game. My brother finally convinced me to give it another go and wow! I love this game, I’m even spending money to buy skins. Not a common thing for me.

[@TerriGag-kf5lu]

This is the most true thing ever

[@CrimsonFangTV]

“Sea of thieves is a funny game. It’s a game that’s for everyone, but not everyone likes it. Yet, everyone has fun playing it” this quote just hit me so hard. I’ve had plenty of friends try it with me and have a blast then just never play again, or once every 6 months. I never understood how we could have so much fun and they could leave so uninterested. This quote explains everything

[@IzSpud]

Good vid! 10/10

[@beesneedee6237]

I absolutely love the PS5 update, I used to play on Xbox one, but had trouble loading, and most of my irl friends had a PS5 so I could only tell them about this amazing pirate game I'm playing. Now that it's on PS5 I instandly convinced them to buy it, upgraded myself and man it feels good to play this with people I know irl, were a much better team than I've ever had, we do the most random stuff I can imagine and I'm finally actually winning pvp combat and gittin' gud because of them. They love the game, I've found new love for it by doing the things I've always shied away from

[@andrewwinter7843]

Nice analysis

[@SeaOfMemez]

I cannot put into words how much fun im having with SoT on ps5, everything feels done so right from the visuals to the audio to the vibe of the game itself. Ive waited sooo long to be able to play it, and im so happy im finally a captain! (Also probably am having so much fun because i turned crossplay off hahaha)

[@patrickmschuman]

Older player here i always beleive that when i see a new crew I will fight it if it tries to attack. However if it is to unbalanced I will go over and help and talk to them. And show them how to maybe get better or things you can do to enjoy the game. I believe that we should promote newer people getting better instead of the older vets gatekeeping.

[@easymoneysniper7064]

ps5 player here, always wanted to play SoT since it launched and finally I am, and I'm having a blast!

[@torrom9207]

Whenever I run into new players I stop what I’m doing and try to help and coach them to get better, like doing sea forts for some easy money and melee experience, or doing phantom fleets for some ship v ship practice

[@Leprechaun2702]

they should have some sort of thing that shows a new player, like a flag that goes away after 100 hours that is forced to fly so you can spare the swabbies

[@Noc-1112]

As a founder, it has been an absolute blast to have new players on the seas. The game has never felt more alive. To all of you new pirates out there, don’t let sinking get you down! It’s all in good fun. Enjoy yourselves and play the way you want. See you out on the waves!

[@biggiecheese128]

If what you say is true, i demand that you add bread to the game so i can make a sandwich, or hardtack
