Will the starter fits of races ever racially align such as how every class gets there rifle and pistol, I am not saying add militia everything to the market but make a militia variant only for that suit,
Gallente gets the AR and ion pistol
Caldari gets a rail rifle and bolt pistol
Amar gets a scrambler rifle and pistol
Minmatar gets a combat rifle and flaylock
Also a racial health alignment would make sense, instead of caldari having damage mods maybe give them a shield extender, they need to rework the fittings
Caldari 3 high
Gallente 3 low
Amar 2 low 1 high
Minmitar 2 high 1 low
I know that needs to be reworked but some consideration needs to take place before that, I think racial alignment will make more specialized players instead of FoTM chaser who just put there first 500,000 SP into the thing they get killed by most, it would make them used to there racial weapon, not chasing the tail end of something.
Also I know this was implemented in closed beta but each race now has it's suits... The old recon, sentinel, assault and logi basic frames. We need racial heavy weapons both AP and AV bot. Starter fit of every frame will make people able to pick and choose a frame for which to spec into,
I remember when I first started XD no academy you choose your type of class, sentinel arbiter logistics or enforcer... They could efficiently reimplement that now...
If you want new players to adapt and make there own class let them freely taste the water.
Give them an arbiter class-sniper
Give them a sentinel class-AV
Give them a logistics class-support
Give them an assault class-assault
Of course with this will come a lot of community back lash of which race they choose and wanting to change there race etc. And I support this but make it make sense CCP. 4 frame roles, 4 races, 4 rifles, 4 pistols, all suits and extreme diversity!
Maybe they don't want to be medium frame with a nanite injector, give them a militia logi with 2 equipment slots per logi, make it have a rep tool and injector so maybe they can support you when they pick you up, instead of new players getting a bad rap for picking people up.
Make the starter fits unalterable as well so a militia caldari doesn't stack damage mods and a combat rifle, along with the arbiter class swapping the sniper for a shotgun, make them customize there own fits from the milita store.
Also make it so when you go through your inventory and go to set your weapon you have the four race names then you just click over like the market tabs, and it goes into light, heavy, side. Then into the weapon from there.

Many players use starter gear, I do as well. Actually I use a BPO, whenever I drive a tank or fly a Derp. Cuts my losses just in case. Having a Starter Fit be nearly useless is their goal. Thus causing Player to spend AUR. Having a Starter Fit be useful is your goal. Thus saving ISK and AUR. Like oil and water this won't be mixing up anytime soon. 
Well they could still make this even if it was still medium frames and just racially aligned weapons, I know they are supposed to be crap but still, I have no personal intention of running them I just remember when they did have the 4 different types, logi sentinel assault and recon. I personally hate my starter fits because I hate shield, I normally run armor on a scout (not tank) but armor, but I think racial alignment would make the game seem more, racially correct? The last time I ran a medium frame anyways was pre 1.7 on Gihad runs with a logi
