@elieeleye Ahoy matey!
I think the team really wanted to thank those players that had engaged in Arena... And having a cut off point of today was the best call to make sure non of them pesky pirates hopped on and stole that Sea Dog glory ;D
Saying Goodbye to The Arena
@ty3dy3-x No news on that just yet... but like the Creator Crew commendations they could just get hidden... maybe?!
Well, looks like my dreams of getting the Glorious Sea Dog Clothing, Glorious/Triumphant Sea Dog Flintlock, and Skilled Swashbuckling and Skilled Sharpshooting Sea Dog Titles. I will both miss and be happy the Arena is gone because it was a pain to play due to multi-ship teamers and Arena Gods. Now every time I see someone with the 5 items, I wanted I will just be more jealous of them.
“ Everyone who has already reached or passed Sea Dogs rank 5 will be rewarded with the following Arena ship cosmetics to use in Adventure mode:
The Azure Scout
The Flaming Jackal
The Golden Chaser
The Lucky Rover
The Regal Hound
Those super-dedicated Arena players who have already reached Sea Dogs rank 50 will receive The Good Boy ship cosmetics as a rare bonus in addition to the sets listed above.All six of these cosmetic sets consist of four items: hull, figurehead, sails and flag.”
This is fantastic! Thank you for not leaving these cosmetics to waste!
Excited to see the new PL weapons set but I hope it’s looks distinct enough from the LSD weapons. Don’t want to make those players feel like they wasted their time.
The Midnight Prowl Cosmetics
I'm ecstatic to see that the Arena Ship cosmetics will be awarded. However, as many may or may not know, there are 7 teams in the Arena, while you've only listed 6. The Midnight Prowl was a scrapped Black and White arena team whose logo was that of a crescent moon. This team color was never playable in-game, except for a rare bug when Arena was first released where the Midnight Prowl ship would spawn in, and repeatedly sink hundreds of times. Please, for our lack of Black and White ship cosmetics, can you allow us to get the cosmetics of the Midnight Prowl? Make it a reward for those who got all the Sea Dog Commendations, perhaps? I spent a lot of time getting all the commendations for Triumphant Sea Dog, and there's a handful of commendations not tied for the Triumphant set which have never had a reward, such as getting Iron Sea Dog, the 200 cannon kill commendation which rewards nothing. Please don't trashcan the Midnight Prowl.
This aside, you never did mention what you will be doing with The Sea Dogs as a Trading Company. Will their Tavern remain? What about the faction? The characters?
The Sea Dog Emporium Vendor, will he go for good? He's not stationed at the Adventure location of the tavern, he's ONLY inside. What about his glowing green eyes? All the Sea Dog vendors and NPC characters for turning in the chests have really pretty "spiced up" versions of cosmetics we can earn, will those never see the light of day? Hmm.The Midnight Prowl

I suffered through arena to get level 50, but knew that 250 wins was never going to happen. The arena community wouldnt let the legendary sea-dog achievement go to 100 wins where it should have been and this is the result. Too many pirate legends were forced to give up on getting their basic gear from this mode and that was deeply unfair. Not to mention all the TDM players who would camp the chest and force out players trying to play the mode normally, even if they didnt interfered with the TDM itself.
Arena players killed arena by making adventure players deeply unwelcome.
I totally understand this decision... I only play Arena to get the commendations (rip them as I am not close to finish) but I know that after I would have completed them I would stop playing Arena and gone back to Adventure.. So I understand why it's been decided to shut it down as I bet others are like me. It's still super sad that I will not get the items and cosmetics I have been working towards getting..

@majorvibez01 you still have the option to buy a level at an outpost :)
That's how I did it..back in the day :)
I hope you change your decision to let people who make it to level 50 before the cut off earn the "good boy" ship set. I've been slowly grinding up to level 50 and it would be a shame to hit 50 before you close arena and be unable to earn it.
I hope you can find a way to incorporate the Sea Dogs faction and commendations into adventure.
It’s a shame that Arena was only actively played by a very small portion of the community.
I had a lot of awesome sessions and met a good few great people in the Arena as well, and got a lot of practice in combat.
The decision was one we all knew was coming soon, and I’m sure all of us who still decently actively played Arena can understand this decision.
Hoping to see some really awesome stuff in Adventure this year! (:
Will the new Pirate Legend weapons be a different color/skin? I would prefer they stay the same, but I understand they might need to be different to distinguish those that completed the Arena challenges.
Personally, I never finished the Pirate Legend weapon unlocks because asking for that many 1st place wins was too much for me.

we will not tolerate any attacks or aggression towards the hugely passionate Sea of Thieves team who continue to give it everything they’ve got.
Got nothing to say then.
Will there be any refunds for people who bought the game only for Arena? Not that I'm the one, but there are such players.
