Anyways, I have realized through nearly beating the final boss a few times now that the tool that gives the player the absolute edge over NPC's is the ability to pause. I also find that this sometimes makes the game a bit tedious, and diminishes the action. What if there was an extra difficulty mode where a subsystem could be damaged, removing the ability to pause? It would make some close fights much more difficult, and create a hectic change of pace. I would love to try out a mode like that!
Another thing that I would appreciate is the ability to rearrange the order of my crew on the left hand side. I like to keep them in a certain order so I remember who is the pilot, shield guy, etc. When someone dies my system goes to hell. If I could rearrange their order on the left, I could then keep straight who is who without consulting through the crew list individually.
We can buy from slavers, what about selling to slavers? (Filip vexes me.)
The option to buy weapons seems far less common than buying drones. I find weapons to be a primary offensive, while drones are supplementary. Therefore, it seems weapons should be a little more common. Just a thought.
A final word. I'm not sure if having duplicate ship augmentations are additive, or multiplicative, or have no effect whatsoever. (I.e. do two modules that decrease reload times by 15% decrease by a total of 30%, 27.75%, or 15%?) It would be helpful to include this info somewhere!
Thanks for reading. Congratulations on a brilliant game.
**Edit: Nearly forgot! How about a save state option? My successful runs span a long time period. I have a kid, so require frequent breaks while at home. It would be nice to be able to shut down my computer occasionally!
