I just thought of something. How exactly do you defeat a ship without sinking it? Maybe flameheart IS on the burning blade and he’s like “you fight well, I have other things to attend to use this ship” probably not but who knows.

The way I see it, "sinking" it actually just stuns the vessel and makes it unable to take any actions. During which time you can climb aboard and commandeer it.

My guess is it will be stun after fighting it, and if you continue to pound on it, it will eventually sink.

Most likely the ship either comes with a healthbar type deal where it takes shots till it finally is put down or it reaches 2nd deck and sinks like normal but instead of floating down it just hangs in the water or smth

Even if it doesn’t, it still looks badass. It’s literally a dragon! A fire-breathing ship!

I still really really want them to add a 5 man crew or 6 I want more of my friends to join. gives us man of wars besides the event like make the man a war the 4th ship we can use but require 6 people

when i watched the trailer yesterday was so incredibly happy, made my year just hearing that. been loving this game for years and just some days cant find myself playing it because i have everything. real content like this will bring me back its great to see this revolutionary change in the sandbox.

I can see why they decided to do more than just a tease or vague hint towards the future this time. A lot of people have been turned off by all the foundational changes, and lack of sandbox updates. Rare NEEDED to establish trust with many of these folks again. And this preview event was the perfect way to do it. There's no longer a question of if future seasons will be significant. We know exactly what's coming, and it's all they promised and more. What has me most excited about this, is Rare's clear willingness to break the mold. Before they were reluctant to introduce things like new weapons or something like a massive ship, for fear of upsetting the balance. Now they're doing it BECAUSE it'll shake up the balance and keep the game from getting stale. That willingness to try something crazy sets an amazing precedence for the quality of updates moving forward. I genuinely had thought that the days of true game changing updates like this were something we'd only see year 1, when they were scrambling to get the game into a truly finished state. Now I can't wait for all of these amazing changes, and I'm beyond excited for the future of this game.

I hope we get more world event ships and that they all can be active at the same time imagine the Dutchman vs the burning blade

Everything looks amazing! I wonder how many bone callers you can have at once. You could make a small army of skeles!

3:00 they will have a great function like you pointed out earlier. You can’t carry loot while sword lunging but you can with zip lines

The burning blade is by far the best part for me, along with the grapple gun. Allows for more boarding and ways to catch running ships. You overshot, shoot down like seen in the video. You undershot or got knocked off, use it to get back on. I like it. But actually becoming the world event is so cool. I'm sure some folk are gonna make servers really rough to play on, but conquering it and getting to actually do it yourself is so cool. Plus you could just server hop if the folk who currently control it are really aggressive. You'll feel like a true captain with a crew of skellies and a bad ass ship too. The true scourge of the seas!

Changes look good as long as they properly check for exploits/bugs. I can see there being big bugs or unintended broken features with the double pistol (too much damage), and potential big exploits with the harpoon gun like flying or something lol.

Bringing Sea of Thieves to PS5 was a good decision. Rare can invest more due to the extra revenue, and hopefully, they will bring it to Nintendo Switch 2

adding a playable man o war as a special event rather than a normal ship you can just select was a goated decision imo

the fact you’re saying this could be SoT’s biggest year fills me with the a lot of hope 😂

I’m thinking I’ll be using the cutlass and the knife as well. There’s a lot of versatility, plus I think it will be fun to throw it into various things as I play and then retrieve it.

I haven’t play sea of thieves for so long since I reached pirates legend and did all the tall tale quests and other stuff but god damn I think I’ll have to get the old crew back together for this.

harpoon gun and crouching is gonna make sot so much fun again, imagine the amount of movement tech

Some youtuber alredy made a concept for the flameharts ship, a while ago, id never thought they'd listen

Hyped as hell for this, can’t wait to see what else they’re planning and how the lore is going to be delivered.

I am willing to bet that the flameheart ship event is a test for when we eventually get larger ships ourselves

Extreemly pleased with the work in progress, if onbly the current season things worked like loggin in and buying skins.

I hope with crouching they also add movement like sliding and manteling the environment. Mirrors edge style movement if u know what i mean

Rare was worried that adding new weapons would shake up the balance too much and leave the game in a very sorry state (like league of legends that has 150+ characters that have to be balanced around the 200+ or so items.) excluding server performance cause it was always bad.

I might actually get into this game when the season drops. I tried before but the servers were empty

Im hyped for the new weapons cus ima go goblin mode with the throwing knife it was mt favorute thing to do in cod now i can do it in SOT

I wonder if the new world event will be active while other events are also active or if the ship will be the only thing active while on the server?

Absolutely pumped out of my mind for this coming year of sot!

Well done as always, Ray.

The anticipation is gonna eat me away this year

I can not wait for that Flameheart event. It looks awesome!

The only thing I wish is that they would add is more to do while you are killing time sailing from one location to the next, something other than fishing... Diving to the first point is nice, but if you are not steering the boat you are kind of just sitting on your thumbs and feeling the call of the void to set fire to something or get annihilated with grog.

Dang. I was starting to work towards making my own pirate game, and I had many of these exact ideas in terms of weapons, especially for the grapeshot. Now I'm scared to make it, due to the possibility Rare decides to be a copyright troll :(

um in season 13 on the burning blade do you get reputation for the reapers bones? i hope so because i have loss farmed for servants of the flame for 8 months in order to get the skeleton curse!!! and i'm at level 100

so im guessing after this the next big update for the factions will be for the ghost one because by the looks there just being ignored

Bro the Grapple Gun + Blunderbuss wll be so OP

I might actually get back into SOT now

I haven't been this hyped for quite some time

S13 and S14's harpoon gun alone look phenomenal!

PvP is gonna feel like a fever dream with all that new stuff flying around, bring it on

You had me with the flagship, wonder if people could use it in safer seas?

I haven't played SoT since 2021, hopped on for the sake of good ol' times this month and was blown away how little progress the game actually made in *3 years*. Yes, captaincy update, monkey island and a few quality of life things like the sovereigns and the harpoon rework but like that's all there is to show for 3 years? And they actually remove content like Sea Dog Arena? You can create a whole new fucking game in 3 years. But seems like this is where things finally pick up again, fingers crossed as I'd love to see SoT flourish again

Skeleton Poke-balls and grappling guns appear to be equally fun additions for new players and old alike. Lots to love here.

We are all going to be running around like ghost face lol

Looking forward to the end of ladder camping with new access to the hookshot rifle.

I don’t believe the throwing knives are weapons to be equipped. As I understood it, they are a new throwable. Otherwise, how would you be able to pick one up after it was thrown at you, unless you have it equipped as well.

I'm hopeful considering they said that they are expanding their team so they can have people whose only job it is to fix stuff like this. They said that usually that stuff was given to people to do in their extra time but now we'll have a team working on just that all the time.

Man season 13 I’m sooo hyped what if they did this world event thing with the pearl and Flying Dutchman

erm, a shiny ray! A man'o'war is technically not a ship but any type of sailing boat or ship that contains manned cannons!

I am very excited for season 12 ( and owls when they come out)

It’s worth noting that the Burning Blade has 10 cannons on both sides, not total! This means that there are 20 total cannons. Also, I’m a little disappointed that skeleton camps are going to occupy already existing islands. I sorta figured, but it is a shame some smaller islands will be sacrificed for them. Still better to have them though, can’t make an omelet without breaking a few eggs

I'm pretty excited for the throwing knives because they are retrievable

Well i dont know i played the game 3 or 2 years ago and i liked those smal ilands and old outposts what hapened to them? Is the game is easyer harder or like before?

W, I am crying it so good the update!

more dynamic and complex combat with so many more facettes to think about. and then they add the burning blade and use the now completely different comabt for a completely new type of event. i want to use 120 fov but i accept that it gets put down because hacking was too much. 2023 really feels like its going to be huge for sot

My only worry is the stability I just hope these updates are playable

The throwing knife skins will be so good

Use the burning blade to fight the flying dutchman lol. And compare it to the black pearl

While I really love the new path they are taking with this game, the original reason me and my friends stoped playing was because we didn’t like having to watch our backs every moment to make sure other players were going to attack us, so while I like what I’m hearing I don’t think I’ll come back to it, but I do this everyone should play it at least once to find out for themselves

This looks cool to come back to

I hope the ai are good shots…

I think the Zip line gun should work more like a swing shot, if there’s any reeling in it should be done slowly enough that 1. Cannon shot close to enemy ships will land u on the ship but if shot too far you’ll miss the mark Or 2. You cant use it to get to higher ground, only to bridge a gap at same or lower ground while still allowing players to control the direction of the swing. As for the harpoon gun, I would have preferred if it was tied to the crows nest and only allowed players to zip down to lower platforms. It gives it balance cuz enemy players on ships can destroy the zip line if they’re quick enough (since it’s close to ground lvl), requires players to climb up the ladder to the crows nest more (more crows nest utility) (and allows players to be spotted and taken out before boarding which is a good skill play). As it stand I feel these 2 tools are a bit too op.

Also, you must have misunderstood as they wouldn’t be the same as a sword lunge distance covered.

@@mikael100100 it’s not a gimmick as it would allow one to still board ships at mid to close range, with the limitation that you wouldn’t be able to walk on it upwards, and you wouldn’t be able to shoot the zip line somewhere where it can’t be countered. If anything, it would make the crows nest more viable. What do players currently use the crows nest for? It’s better to have a crew mate handling sails, steering, repairs, or ready on cannons than being up there wasting everyone’s time. Barely will u see experienced players in the crows nest. Basically just allows u to take in the sight as spotting isn’t too hard from below either. As for the swing shot, it doesn’t allow players to be boarded so easily. As they showed it, it practically takes no skill to board. You can be in the water and in less than 2 seconds you’re on the enemy ship. Either the swing shot comes with a reel in mechanic, that slowly pulls you up the ship, giving enemy players enough time to react, or you can board ships by using the swing shot on your own mast or enemy masts to swing yourself over.

Ok the golden age returns summer gonna be sick

The one thing I wish for is to get the story more back on track. Like don’t just use the Burning Blade as a world Event, give us a tall tale or adventure

Sot on ps5, FLAMEHEART SHIP WORLD EVENT, More weapons, more throwables. What more could i ask for when I'm introducting my ps5 friends to sot for the first time.

The updates coming look fire but honestly really concerned about the grapple gun

The man-o-war is interesting. I bet you it won't be available in SS though.

I'm not exactly a fan of the Reapers as a faction myself, but actually having the Burning Blade roaming the seas as a "boss ship", and even offering players the option of commanding it themselves, is one of the most awesome ideas Rare has ever introduced!

The double barrel pistol could have just been the base pistol. But they could have let us fire it twice similar to the way Saltspyre from vermintide does. Where we have two pistols instead of one that we fire in quick succession. So instead of a double barrel we could just have 2 pistols
