Andrew from Xbox Enthusiast talks about the Game Pass Issue that locked subscribers out of Sea of Thieves and how problems like this can have a devastating blow to the service in the future.
Opinion: Why Helldivers 2 and Sea of Thieves, despite their obvious differences, are very much the same for PlayStation and Xbox
Sea of Thieves stared off life as an Xbox exclusive, growing over time into a genuine hit with a large, committed community. Now, in an effort to increase its audience still futher, it's become a key part of Microsoft's multi-platform push.
So, no one wants to talk about how the PS5 outperforms the xbox version in multiple ways, huh?
Draw distance better / shadows better
Also he calls most ps5 “oddity’s” and uses the term “not sure why this is happening” a lot
Ps5 is just more powerful, those 2teraflop difference and Xbox fanatics saying world most powerful console, is worth zip- zero
Joe 'Three Sheets' Neate (Executive Producer): "As I’m sure you can imagine, when it comes to Sea of Thieves my days are full of numbers. Development costs, active servers, days until the next update… Sometimes, though, a truly extraordinary number stands out – a number like 40 million, which I’m incredibly pleased to say is the number of pirates who’ve now set sail in Sea of Thieves!"
Garrr... more people to walk the plank and send to Davey Jones locker.
would have been funny to release this on talk like a pirate day.
40 million have set sail...that's great. How many are sailing now? Monthly active users....when it actually matters. How many people purchased the game is another important number.
40 Mil across Stream, Windows 10, and Xbox. Healthy numbers for sure, but when PC is the biggest platform, I expected more. It’ll be interesting to see how it does on PlayStation. Very well could be double that player count in 6 months with PS too. It’s crazy for developers to skip the most popular platform, not sure why they’d want to, but they must have had their rea$ons.
This is true but surely you can get a refund?
MS seems to be pretty good with that.
Still fun AF though
“Since the launch of the original Xbox, Halo has been a console seller, and the next installment in the popular series will no doubt sell units.”
Idk if you could call Halo 6 a potential system seller since most of the people who’d want it already have an Xbox One already.
I don’t see Xbox One topping NPD the month Halo 6 comes out the same way it did when Halo 5 came out.
Seems like an easy fix?
your article is a little late. it was fixed yesterday after only a few hours
