Free lavs are junk. They're easy kills, so I vote to keep them. I don't think it's fair to remove them before you have vehicle locks. Why pay for something so easily taken from you?

As far as crowd control, that should be per type of vehicle and map size. That 5 point map that got removed a while back for lag issues could easily hold 5 lavs. But 3 tanks on a 3 point map is also too many. And number of lavs shouldn't effect number of tanks, dropships, etc... and vice versa.

I disagree with the vehicle locks and the vehicle cap due to map size. If CCP wants to do infantry only map thats fine by me but limiting the amount of vehicles for the sake a fairness takes away form those of us who enjoy and have put stock in that part of the game. Show me three high end tanks vrs three high end Forge gun/swarm users with a fair amount of distance. A tank is just a slow painted target without infantry support.

As for vehicle locks I don't mind blue dots getting in or if they drive my ride. I'm serious, esp in high end LAV's it's not uncommon for the ride to outlast the owner. just give my character priority to the dam wheel when I'm in it!

And besides, it is quicker to kill a heavy inside a LAV than it is in a fire fight. IMO the Saga BPO's need to go. Saga bpo's are no longer free to use. You need to equip a small turret, so minimum of 6k. Still not much, but I feel like they're used less. They will not be so common when the game actually releases and thousands of new players join.

Just to clarify, I didn't say for the sake of fairness, but for crowd control. That seemed to be the major complaint. And I don't mean to suggest my own limits, because personally I don't care. If I'm paying for the lav, I should be the driver. If I'm not, I don't care who drives.
