No. I find that in cooperative games like this, groups of two or three that have mics tend to grief players who don't.
Funny thing is the others were not talking. Don't know if they were in party chat or not. Either way I have a feeling this is going to be a haven for dickheads.
Everyone I've randomly played this game with has actually been pretty cool so far. Must be just good luck? I'm actually buying the game for a couple friends of mine, so hopefully I can play it with people I know, eventually.
Can anyone tell us if there's ever a point where you really really don't want to die? In Battle Royale games, of which this reminds me of, there are tons of moments with really high stakes. Does Sea of Thieves capture a similar feeling?
I held off on the beta as they generally turn me off. Congrats to RARE though as it looks like they have a big hit on their hands. It looks like a return to form for one of the more iconic studios in the entire industry. When MS purchased RARE way back it was done for games like this and to cement themselves as a legitimate player in the gaming industry. It’s good to see them back.
Never thought the game looked appealing but would like to see if I am right or wrong.
Is the beta still available?

Just sit it out val- your take is a predictable as the sun rising. You will play it for 5 minutes, say you are out, and then call it name like Sea of Lame.
So, I have played for over 6 hours and haven't seen one other person. I thought this was supposed to be a persistent, shared world?
It is. We had a server with at least 2 other galleons and a small boat. Was chased for about an hour.
I think you have to initiate a quest. I dont get any encounters unless im on a quest.
I think I'll wait till the game is launched and try it out on Game Pass. I'm not a fan of the art style and the animations put me off, not digging it at the moment but perhaps game play will change my mind.
It's definitely not a single player game. You can play it single player, but it is WAY more enjoyable with at least one more crew mate.
People are finding some crazy stuff in the beta. This guy found a feed that has a cool air pocket cave that you have to swim underwater for a while to find it. It's full of tiki states and things like that. Obviously this will be something more important in the full game, but it's still cool to see.

That's pretty crazy. I wonder if the matchmaking wasn't working correctly. It seems the higher level I've gotten with the gold traders, the more people I see. When I first started, I would rarely see other ships. Now that I'm rank 15, I can always count on seeing at least on ship on the horizon, if not more.
