Is anybody here considering pre-ordering? I hope I’ll make memorable moments in the beta as I did in the alpha...
EDIT - I just recently pre-ordered it off of the Microsoft Store and I’m really excited for the upcoming beta.
@matt-micheal Absolutely!
In case anyone wasn't aware, Best Buy is offering a Sea of Thieves Pre-Order Collectable Coin. Although I'm not sure if you'll receive The Black Dog Pack.
Item description: For a limited time, pre-order Sea of Thieves and receive a branded collectible coin. This is a 3-inch metal coin imprinted with Sea of Thieves logos and icons.
Here is the link. This may only be available in the US.
@musicmee so far haven’t seen it anywhere in the UK. Although I’m sure it will pop out on Amazon or eBay at some point
@boooci @Erinom3
Yeah, seems strange that a branded thing like that would only be available to American customers though...
I have an eBay reminder for all Sea of Thieves related items so this may pop up on the horizon soon! I need this for my collection!
Coin....
I wanted to pre-order. but I don't see enough content wise that makes it worth the $60. The alpha was fun and all, but aside from the animal quests and more puzzle/riddle quests it doesn't seem like there is going to be much to this game. if there is then it doesn't seem like they mentioned anything about it. There needs to be more to do than simply collecting treasure chests. :| also the runescape quality ship damage is cringy. it's like something straight out of 2002.
Waiting until after the beta to decide, but right now pre-order is a no.
Not enough varied content, lackluster PC config at the moment (though its a work in progress) and some design decisions that need to be finished or improved before I decide. The game is fun, but doesn't appear to have the lasting appeal to warrant $80 CAD upfront.

Same here, but if i'm being honest, i have no willpower whatsoever but i will most definitely pre-order it.
I had thought I would, but I'm not so sure anymore. I like co-op gaming and dislike PvP. I was excited because SoT was hyped as very cooperative with just a bit of PvP. While it isn't the non-stop troll fest that GTA public sessions are, I only had three non-violent encounters during this week's session.
I love everything else about this game; I thoroughly enjoyed sailing, exploring, fighting skeletons and digging up chests. But I got really tired of nervously looking over my shoulder the entire time - even in the tavern, for crying out loud! The only thing that allowed me to enjoy it all was the scarcity of encounters.
There's certainly nothing wrong with that kind of PvP setup and I understand it, but it's not quite what I was hoping for and I might not buy it. I'll just have to see how things develop from here.
