A few ideas that have been mentioned since I started playing in Jan.
-only driver can drive.
-only squad can drive
-owner can lock/unlock
-must have skills to pilot
-remote explosive in driver seat with friendly fire
-eject all passengers Button

Its been brought up alot, and I'm sure we will see the thread again.

Why would you get out of your tank... That's what infantry is for and has always been for sorry to criticize your play style. Why I do is I get a corp mate in my tank ride him to a enemy null cannon and have him hack it while I protect him.

Every vehicle driver wants this, and has been asking for it for many months.

Still nothing from CCP on this though, so it must be such a low priority that you should not hold your breath for it.

I predict that it will come with the move to PS4, so sometime in 2015. Late 2015.

And so, you demonstrate the old saying: "if you aren't part of the solution, you are part of the problem". Actually in this case, YOU ARE the problem. I don't have to anymore, but originally, I paid real world money to upgrade my turrets and vehicles.

I have specific missions that I use them for. Many times as a portable turrets. I will have the site pointed for a kill shot and all of a sudden, my LAV is moving, I can't make the shot, and since I know the intentions of the person who jumped in it is 99% of the time going to use it as a murder taxi and get it destroyed, I have to jump off and just let it roll off to destruction, lest I lose my proto suit and equipment too. It's real world money being stolen by thieves, plain and simple. It's not humorous. It's not "o.k.". It's unethical and theft.

Just because it offers the words "press circle to enter vehicle" It's not saying that is what you should do, just how to do it. It's not an invite.

Good idea but I think the ability for an awoxer to come and ruin your day should still be available.
Either only timed locking, or no locking available in PC but only your squad can drive in public matches.
Theft and sneaky **** is a big thing in the eve-dust universe and i don't thing that should be taken away.

Or just accept that in a public match you shouldn't bring out the big guns you're not prepared to loose (Don't get me wrong, i like the idea in general but that's what CCP's opinion probably is)

Kill me in the car, you lose your car and your suit.

I don't care about losing one suit to see the reaction of a driver.

This.

when I kill a red and take his vehicle, I want to actually take it. As in it gets added to my assets when I recall it. It's one of those little things that would go a long way to adding more depth to the game.

As for locks, I think we should have a series of permissions that we can toggle for each fit. There should be different layers like self only, squad, team, corp, alliance, and open. You would turn on one or more of these options and only people that fall into those categories to get in your vehicle, with open being that anyone can get in. Also when/if faction standings get put in let us set a certain standing with a specific faction as a limiter. So I could set it to where only people with a standing of 3.0 or higher with the Angel Cartel can get in my dropship, or you need -5.0 or lower with Amarr to get in my tank.
