I'm playing through the Singleplayer currently and it is just unbelievably hard. I'm hanging on by a thread during each mission and I can't save up for a better ship because of level restrictions.
I threw a tantrum at some Novas a couple days ago. SP is my only option for a week, other than a few other games and *gasp* real life.
I appreciate the humor in your post but level restrictions are frustrating! You have to do this mission or that mission for Juni to get to the next level - your cash doesn't automatically update it, you have to do missions in between. And then you need a better ship to actually be able to complete the mission, but you need the mission to get a better ship...
Unlimited money does NOT help - no matter how much money you have, there is a requisite mission before you can advance to being counted at the next level. You can't buy, for example, a Starblazer till you're on level 13 - and that doesn't mean cash level 13, that means mission 13.
It's hard to say right but I want to enjoy single player without completely blowing it away, if that makes any sense at all. Just because two outcasts in Daggers can shred me in 5 seconds doesn't mean I want a beam weapon to vaporize them.

Yea all right.... but you could do something like give yourself an over-spec shield by a couple of levels, to give you that edge to survive.
