just picked this up and been sailing around solo while i learn the ropes, it's very comfy but i've been avoiding all the group content. is adventuring with randoms tolerable or do i need actual friends?
>>1926294The only tolerable way to sail with randoms is looking for a group and grouping with people from the Sea of Thieves or even better, SoT Youtubers' discords.
>>1926294Imagine four people with four completely different objectives in four completely different directions. Two of them don't have mics, one of them is severely ESL, and none of them care about (You)r objective. Like the other anon said, just bite the bullet and get on D*scord so you can join groups that are running what you want to run.Anyway, how's the new season? Been away for a while but I'm gonna start playing again if any /vm/bros want to get a crew together.
>>1926294don't feel like you have to start grouping up if you want to progressif you want to get good at the game then keep playing solo and stop caring about lootunironically just start spawning in grabbing whatever supplies you can and beelining towards the nearest ship you seedoesn't matter what they're doingdoesn't matter how outnumbered you sreyou will die a lot but each death will make you a better sailorthis is the only true path to gitting gud at pvp but it must be walked alone>>1927887>Anyway, how's the new season?might be the worst one yet desuthe new content is:>smuggler faction: they have one voyage and it's delivering cargo from one npc to another npc (reapers won't even buy the cargo kek) they're literally just merchant reskins except they're on non-outpost islands and they don't have ranks or emissaries>you can have multiple pirates on the same account now but new ones start over from scratch and have to grind everything all over again>this is their compromise solution for saving outfits>you have to pay irl money for each new pirate btwand that's it except for a new bullshit op keg that can oneshot galleons

I only find this game bearable playing duo sloop with one of my friends.You can join the official Discord, but your mileage may vary. Nowadays, everyone's just doing hourglass PvP and have absurd joining requirements, lots won't let you play with them unless you no-lifed this game and are 800+ levels in hourglass.
>>1928737Actual good advice here, solo slooping will make you much better about learning how to manage your ship.
