Insider Patch Notes 2.8.5.7
Insider Update 2.8.5.7 is now live. As we approach our September release, we will now be limiting the Insider build’s features to be more in-line with what’s coming to the main game in the September update. Insiders can still play through our Legend of Monkey Island Tall Tales and enjoy a whole host of Outpost cosmetics and Emporium goodies too!
Please note that the third Monkey Island Tall Tale is still scheduled for release in September and will be coming to an Insider build very soon.
As always, if you encounter any bugs, please head to the
Sea of Thieves support site and let our Player Support team know.
Known Issues
‘The Quest for Guybrush’
- Stan and Captain Smirk will sometimes not reach their target locations when following players around.
Fixed Issues
Gameplay
- Pirates entering the water or setting foot on islands should no longer find themselves set upon by emergent threats so quickly. Lingering in the water and sauntering around islands will still result in an ambush sooner or later, but not at the same frequency as before.
- Burying and recovering treasure that’s already been placed on your ship once will no longer show an additional ‘Treasure aboard ship’ notification.
Pirate Emporium
- Mad Monkey Ship Crest will now display the correct background when equipped with the Loadstar Ship Hull.
Visual and Audio
- Music now plays inside the tavern at Port Merrick Outpost as expected.
- The colour of the Skull of Destiny will now remain consistent after being removed from a Treasure Chest.
Performance and Stability
- Improvements to client stability, reducing scenarios where players are removed from their session.
