During the beta the Gold Hoarder Company was available for players to experience. The world of Sea of Thieves consists of large islands to discover and huge bodies of water to traverse, and both hold their own treasures for you to find. We docked at the closest island to gather supplies and speak with the other pirates, who thanked us for saving them. We aided the other small craft, causing the larger vessel to limp off and lick its wounds. During the beta, we were manning a simple 2-person sloop and encountered a massive galleon harassing another smaller vessel. This can all change in the blink of an eye though, as other vessels might appear on the horizon to assist. These ship-to-ship battles can be intense, and last from a few extreme seconds to drawn-out battles of attrition, where the first ship to run out of planks to repair the holes becomes the loser. If the enemy is using the in-game proximity chat, you’ll also be able to hear their calls and plans of action, which will invariably give you the upper hand. When you’re in the heat of battle, with thunder clapping overhead and cannons blasting to and fro, the Dynamic Chat Boost will lift incoming voice to help you hear your allies over the raucous. Your giant galleon will stretch out before you as everyone scrambles to fill one of the game’s many roles, from manning the helm, scaling the crow’s nest for a view of the horizon, using the lines to capture the wind in the sails, or patching holes in the hull. Setting sail with three other friends as you strike out to find riches and glory is one of the purest forms of joy.
Probably the most important aspect of Sea of Thieves is its multiplayer and cooperative nature. There’s a lot to love about Rare’s pirate title, but if you’re still on the fence about boarding the Sea of Thieves vessel, our impressions of the beta might change your tune! Piratey Cooperation
Now that the full release of Sea of Thieves is less than a month away, we’re getting pretty excited at the idea of really sinking our teeth into the full game. The latest Sea of Thieves beta, in the guise of a stress test, sailed off into the sunset last weekend to find calmer seas, more enemies to hunt, and greater treasure to plunder.
