I feel like it has a strong message. The media creates its own news. Like it said, "Violence goes viral." People get all upset over the silly things, and it escalates. The world wouldn't be near as messed up as it is now if the media focused on the good things. I'm not slamming any party, race, or creed, I just think the media as a whole does this to society.

A suggestion to make the laser cannon more different from the laser beam is potentially giving it the ability to transfer effects over. (Acid/freeze) or being impacted by munition mods. In my opinion the difference right now is that the laser cannon has higher shot damage but a lower DPS, and since both one-shot a fighter, the cannon isn't as useful. (though that just might be me)

Blorg, that's the Ragnarok, and it can only rarely be obtained in levels 11+ You don't ever get rewards for boss battles except plat, but two items (the rag and then the Apocalypse, a nuke turret) can only be found in level 11+ (Technically it's anything above ten, but I don't think they've been found in level ten before, so for all intensive purposes it's 11+)

I’d like to see an upgrade system that wasn’t so swing-or-miss. Sometimes you get a total overpowered red, or then you get a really worthless blue. Now, the problem with creating a “chose your upgrades” system is that quickly people abuse it and everything winds up overpowered. The first counter to that is to make it expensive, but then you get the pay-to-play people ruling the world. I think what should happen is that you get the chance to choose your first upgrade, but then you have to roll for your 2nd and 3rd, and leave that up to fate. That way you guaranteed at least a partly-decent unit, but have a random chance to get one that’s powerful.

My suggestion would be maybe to have a bar on the side or something that tracks your progress through the zones, with the bar being expanded as you go further than before. This can show your current progress vs your last flight, and if your ship is an improvement or not.
