Sea of Thieves Developer Update
Check out the official video for the developer update below
From the video description
All you need to know about fighting skeleton ships in the wake of Cursed Sails, finding cursed cannonball caches, flying the Reaper's Mark and facing off in the Cursed Crews Bilge Rat Adventure. Get up to date with Sea of Thieves Executive Producer Joe Neate.
Here are the patch notes for the update below
- Skeleton Ship battles: will be like Skull Forts, marked on the map by a “cloud that looks like a ship cresting a wave”.
- Cursed Crews event: New event is now live featuring new commendations and tasks to do in the world, featuring some of the new mechanics like the Reaper’s mark and Cursed Cannonballs.
- Cursed cannonballs in the world: there’s a chance to find them in the world, multiple cannonball types in your inventory,
- New barrels inventory: barrels are now real barrels that can have multiple resources in them. This change comes with a new inventory UI.
- Reaper’s mark: you raise the flag on your ship and anyone else on the server can see you on their map; doesn’t signify what ship size it is or if that ship is in an alliance. {that last part is very interesting–has the potential to set up traps for other ships, luring them in and then ambushing them}.
- Crates: increase odds of finding banana, planks, and cannonball crates in the world, and increased rewards for turning them in
- Sensitivity: controller sensitivity has been doubled
- Streaming: they just started doing developer-led weekly, community streams, will continue doing them, having special guests, etc.
- Rowboat: behind-the-scenes video coming later today detailing how it’s going to work in the game.
The update size is 3.65 GB. Make sure to read about the new update for Dragon Quest X as well.
