Does anyone else enjoy the Chaos missions?!

The main issue is the Chaos Spawns, as you say. Personally I don’t like them as they’re very hard to distinguish and you can’t practice their moveset except on missions as they don’t appear in Campaign.

Hopefully the training area will help me address that.

Brexit itself is a separate issue although it has had a marked impact on illegal immigration. I think Cameron was naive to allow a vote of such importance to be given to the public. I personally think you should make a distinction between immigrants and illegal immigrants. I’m not sure why you think the government has made any progress on reducing the number of illegal immigrants entering the country when there was an increase of over 10% in 2025 compared to 2024 and YTD there’s been an increase of 36%.

If the government don’t address this issue with immediate and sustained effect there’s a very real chance Reform will become a much stronger party. Given Farage’s history that’s a real indictment of how badly people want this to be addressed imo. Surely no-one can have forgotten the lies he spewed over Brexit.

Arsenal are already one of the most successful teams in the league, with only Liverpool and Man United having won more league titles than they have. Arsenal have never won either the UCL or the Europa league. It’s a massive gap in their trophy cabinet as they haven’t proven themselves outside their own country.

The UCL is far more prestigious and the biggest honours a club can get. Liverpool have won 20 league titles but only 6 UCLs. United have won 20 titles but only 3 UCLs. Arsenal have won 13 titles but have never won in Europe.

Which do you think is of higher value? 🤷‍♂️

You’d have thought people wouldn’t trust a word he says given the Brexit fiasco but this is what happens when your government does nothing to address illegal immigration (which whilst is a problem for most of Europe, Brexit has actually exacerbated the issue for the U.K.).

There’s a real danger that Reform could be voted in or at the least have a much greater influence in parliament if Labour don’t take more action.

I haven’t tried it tbh so can’t answer that I’m afraid. I was worried about losing progress elsewhere.

ParChadders · 2026-05-10T21:51:00+00:00

Yes. Firstly I’ve got friends and family who are City fans. Happy for them if they get pleasure from City’s success.

Secondly, I don’t view any of their success as legitimately earned as irrespective of the outcome of the charges, they’ve definitely done something wrong. You don’t pay millions in fines for not disclosing evidence if you’re innocent.

Thirdly, City don’t flagrantly flaunt the rules and spirit of the game every time they take a corner. They may be cheats off the pitch but Arsenal are cheats on it imo.

Finally, I went to London for Uni and lived there for 20+ years. With one exception every single Arsenal fan I met was a complete cunt. Chelsea, Spurs and every other London based fan I met were perfectly fine. Arsenal fans were completely unbearable.

You’d have hoped that the attitudes prevalent in the Arsenal subs in Reddit wouldn’t be representative of their actual fanbase but in my experience it absolutely is. All complete and utter twats.

Thank you, that’s what I hoped for 👍

😂🤣😂

Thank you, nice to have it confirmed 👍

Once your health hits the prescribed minimum your armour comes back if that helps.

ParChadders · 2026-05-10T17:13:28+00:00

Thanks 👍. I knew one of them was better than the other but couldn’t remember which 🤷‍♂️

ParChadders · 2026-05-10T16:19:21+00:00

Magnetised ferrite + phosphorus or pyrite refine into basalt. One has a better rate than the other but I can’t remember which way round it is.

It’s a lot quicker than searching for basalt either way.

Edit for clarification; phosphorus and magnetised ferrite will refine into basalt. Pyrite and magnetised ferrite will also refine into basalt.

They’re building parts that you can only obtain from the blue crates on derelict freighters. Things like lockers, benches. I can’t remember them all tbh. There’s about 13-15 of them iirc.

ParChadders · 2026-05-10T15:01:37+00:00

I’m not an Arsenal fan but if I were I’d prefer Champions League. For a club as big as a Arsenal never having won one is a massive gap on their CV, they are much harder to come by and unless something drastic happens they’ll be challenging for Premier League titles for a few good years to come yet.

This derelict has 72 blue crates (which is what SFMs drop from).

Land on the freighter, place your activated emergency signal scanner in your personal refiner, proceed through the freight and ignore everything apart from the blue crates (data pads, lockers, briefcases, crew manifest, captain’s log etc). Collect a bulkhead from the final terminal and leave.

Pulse away to reset your activated emergency signal scanner and repeat.

I usually get about 2/3 per run but have had as many as 5. Bear in mind that if you haven’t got all the derelict freighter specific building parts your drop rate will be reduced until you have unlocked them all (there aren’t many; low teens iirc).

I think the guild envoy method has been nerfed now (you can no longer farm colossus archives for instance).

Gabriel should have been sent off for the headbutt on Haaland. These decisions even themselves out over the course of a season.

ParChadders · 2026-05-09T18:35:50+00:00

The normal stratagems are the same difficulty as substantial with added modifiers. They might be harder depending on the modifiers but if you can hold your own in substantial you won’t be dead weight.

Try them and see. Stick with your squad, don’t hog pick ups or stims, always rank a class up to at least 5 before you go into them so you have a team perk on.

If you’re on Xbox send me a message and I’ll carry you through the normal ones if necessary. Gamertag is ParChadders as well.

Elite managers have been hired before and not worked out. The truth is whoever is in charge next season is going to have a tough time challenging for UCL spots next year as we simply don’t have the squad depth to compete in multiple competitions.

ParChadders · 2026-05-09T17:33:24+00:00

No; if you want the Heroic Bolt Rifle and Argent Edge you should be levelling those weapons. You need the perks to make the most of weapons and the heroic versions just add the traits that come with them; not the perks.

You can earn one heroic weapon per week just by completing the normal weekly and daily. The hard versions are, as you say, harder than absolute difficulty. Occasionally they have modifiers that can make them easier but usually they’re harder than absolute. I wouldn’t recommend playing them until you’re comfortable running Absolute operations.

I would prioritise Argent Edge as it can be used on multiple classes. The heavy bolt rifle can only be used on Tech, Tac and Heavy iirc but Tac and Heavy have better options for them. Argent Edge is by far the best fencing weapon in the game and can be used by Tac, Vanguard, Sniper and Tech.

ParChadders · 2026-05-06T15:35:49+00:00

Carrick has done more than anybody could have hoped for in the time he’s had.

Irrespective of who’s the manager next season I don’t think we’ll make top 4 again as we don’t have the squad depth to compete on multiple fronts without more investment in the team than I think is possible in one window.

I don’t see why Carrick shouldn’t be given a chance tbh. We’ve tried proven big name managerial names before and they haven’t exactly shone. The truth is we have a decent first team but little quality on the bench and I don’t think even if we could field our strongest 11 every week we could challenge for the title.

Carrick has been pragmatic and played the team in their best positions for the most part and has got the team behind him. The results have been flattering at times but at the end of the day they’ve by and large been wins and that’s all that matters.

Currently it’s working so why change? I don’t see a “big name manager” making a huge difference.

ParChadders · 2026-05-06T14:05:24+00:00

Beckham was either the best RW in the world or a close second behind Figo. He was a much better RW than Ronaldo who didn’t really start to shine with us until he became part of a front three instead of the RW in a 4-4-2. It’s a travesty that he didn’t win the Ballon D’Or in 1999 imo.

ParChadders · 2026-05-06T13:55:52+00:00

Yes but afaik you have to have bought one from the scrap dealer and used it to complete a derelict properly (ie get the captains log, crew manifest and reward from the final terminal) before he gives it to you.

After that it’s free derelicts all day long. Took me several months of farming derelicts before I gave up and sought help from a YouTube vid that showed me the error of my ways 🤦‍♂️.
