Sea of Thieves ‘Can’t Load Captained ships’ Issue on PC and Xbox: Is It Fixed Yet?
A pirate without a ship is no pirate. Being unable to see your ships in a pirate game is not something you want to experience. If your ships aren’t loading properly follow these methods-
Restart the game-
Online games sometimes face issues due to their nature. Assets sometimes don’t load due to problems either on the client side or the server side. Restarting your game can solve such issues.
Update the game-
New updates tend to cause errors if the player doesn’t have the latest version of the game installed. If you are on a PC, update the game through Steam, and on consoles, install the update through the “My Games and apps” section.
Restart your PC and Consoles –
To solve this error you can also restart your PC and Xbox. At times, this method can fix most issues.
Start a new session –
One other workaround to the Unable to load captained ships issue is to start a new session. Server errors can happen a lot and starting a new session can mitigate the not loading problem.
Check your Internet Connection-
Slow internet speed can lead to faulty loading of assets in the game. Try to check your internet speed and also make sure that the game hasn’t been blocked by your Antivirus or Windows Firewall.
No ships in a pirate game is a more than absurd problem. We hope that this guide has helped you in fixing the issue. We will update it as we get official information from the devs regarding an update. If you are facing a LightbeigeBeard error in Sea of Thieves, look at this guide to solve it.
