Yeah Capture the Beacon starts off with everyone in their Frigates, but it quickly starts to evolve. I personally would love to have all matches Realistic. I think it would make people respect tactics, and their ships a little more.
Captain mode - you kill the engineer healing him and what ? 10 sec later he is back on the same exact ship. That is why the mode became a trench war.
So there’s a chance we can’t spawn at all…? And if you have some idiot who can’t fly an engie hogging the spot there, good luck to you
Yes. But only until someone flying one of your classes dies. If this was implemented, you wouldn’t want to bring 4 ECM interceptors into a match anymore. It would encourage diversity.
As far as the Engineer hogging the spot… If he died, whoever was next in the respawn queue would get first pick of the available classes.

Having three different ships doesn’t mean I’ll get to fly at all if I don’t have ships from an unpopular role, e.g. tackler. Furthermore, this limits the strategies we can use in realistic and recon modes. We can’t rush beacons or the enemy captain using an inty-heavy fleet, because we can’t have inty-heavy fleets.

I’m still not particularly convinced that this would be a good way of booting a bad engie, especially since the dead engie would probably respawn anyway.
Besides, this doesn’t solve the root problem behind the imbalance in ship roles. It merely forbids the symptoms from manifesting.
No. No limiting the amount of ship roles in matches. As far as I know, that doesn’t happen anywhere else, so I see no point in doing it here. People would just stop playing if that was ever implemented.
I really don’t get why you had to post a chatlog with a PRIVATE conversation, don’t find it ethical at all, but whatever… I know YOU told me it wouldn’t work but YOU (even if you belong to one of the biggest corps in the game) are not the COMMUNITY. So If I had this idea I wanted to share it and see what OTHERS may think about this. Now I know. Let’s keep playing vs OP ships or Overtech’d enemies with the current system. In the meantime I will be flying on T2 and stayig there cause T3 has become coil mortar and ECM abuse land and I don’t enjoy it anymore… For what I’m concerned topic is closed.
Thank you all who contributed with their opinions on the matter.

You know, this really comes across as “I’m going to shout down and ignore everyone who doesn’t agree with me.”
This idea would not work, for reasons already given.

Not even close… This idea came after a match where who posted the private conversation was too and the match was dominated by one ship type, so we start a PRIVATE conversation on the matter with him. My idea 1 guy who didn’t like it. So that should prevent me of sharing it with the rest on the forums? Why? Because you or the guy who posted our PRIVATE conversation have lots of posts on this forum or belong to a big corp? That’s not reason enough to me as I might find (as I did) someone who might like the idea and support it… You guys are too high on yourselves you are not the owners of the truth you know?
Besides all that i said I’d consider this topic closed 10 posts ago…

/Closed to avoid further arguement on a topic declared finished by the OP.
