I agree having bigger crews could be fun but just not in sea of thieves, they would have to re-design the core mechanics and basically re-design the game. Blackwake has been made from the ground up to have bigger crews so it is balanced in their game but blackwake and sot are totally different games.
With regards to microtransactions I think you are over reacting. Because sea of thieves is going to be supported for many years to come you would have t...
yep that seems to be the theme, especially on n4g
@Usperg
Totally agree, they need to add a 3 player crew/ship
Xenophon_York
You have to understand gameplay balance. If you have a crew of say 8 people nobody will stand a chance against them and when sailing to a location there will be 4 people bored out there brains with nothing to do on the ship. 4 player crews is a perfect balance, there's nothing stopping your 4 player crew joining up with another 4 player crew. for example in one alpha session our 4 man crew made friends with 2 other 4 man crews in the tavern and decided to all set sa...

Totally agree, they have to have a 3 man crew, even if it's on a big ship. Ive been playing the beta with a friend on a 2 man ship which was epic fun but another friend plans to join us at launch and I don't want to have a random player thrown in every time we want to play
these are the things that will make sea of thieves so much fun. you never know whats going to happen when other crews are involved
just seen leaked pictures of the kraken. holy crap it's freaking huge. super excited for this game now
look at the freaking size of it. the more I see of this game the more excited I get
@ossyc
you can play solo, I have many times in the alpha and beta and had fun but you should try and get some friends if you don't like solo
if your in a ship battle I imagine it would be wise to forget the battle and join forces to battle the kraken, there're the kind of decisions that will make sea of thieves great
I really like the roadmap they have set out for this game. a secret goonie cave for legendary pirates only and your own customized ship. I'm sure there's plenty of other secrets to find.
wow the first stage endgame sounds awesome. a secret goonie cave. I wish I had found this out for myself but people constantly asked what the goal of the game was so I guess rare had to say something. really excited for this game now. I'm sure there's plenty more secrets to be found
I'm fine with this as long as there are still cosmetics that can only be earned by completing certain things in the game. I don't want to spend hundreds of hours to achieve a certain look only for somebody else to buy the same look without even playing one hour. The game is going to last for many years and has no paid dlc so microtransactions are a must but they have to be done right
solderman
why are you spamming that comment in every sea of thieves article
@solderman
I disagree, during the alpha sessions I played with a different crew each time and only had one poor session that I could remember. there were a few times I actually had more fun than with my friends during the beta. One thing I will also add is that I have also played a lot solo and still had plenty of fun.
if you only like linear games you will not like sea of thieves. for everyone else you will have a blast

The fact your comment has 2 upvotes and 5 downvotes when all you said is " I hope the game is good" sums up how toxic n4g has become. such a shame as it's a good source of information. I also hope it turns out good, I had fun in the beta

Try it for $10 on game pass to see if you enjoy it
fenome They haven't said that but somebody data hacked the latest build and it hinted at an open beta, more npc characters, more animations and best of all the kracken
You can unlock cosmetic items by just playing the game. they have also said there will be plenty of items rewarded for doing hard quests that can't be bought with real money which is great. this is a multiplayer game which will be supported for years so monetization is necessary and this is best way to do it imo. NO GAME SHOULD HAVE LOOT BOXES AND NO SINGLE PLAYER GAME SHOULD NEED MONETIZATION
