Player Features and Ideas Discussion

So with the coming seperation of Battlecruisers and Destroyers coming soon, they are about to be put at a pretty distinct disadvantage at what they give access to compared to other basic ship skills, mostly in the way of faction and pirate ships. So I'm kind of curious if this perhaps opens the door to their arrival? Will Destroyers and BCs be given upgrade versions? Is it a good idea? Has this idea been discussed at length before and I stupidly missed it? Got ideas on what you'd want to see done with such ships? Think this is a completely terrible idea? Think this is probably what CCP plans already and this is entirely pointless? I don't know, you'd tell me.

I for example would love to see the new destroyers put into navy and pirate ship forms. They have some of the best ship designs of all the ships out there, and its really a shame that they are only T1 ships. I'd love to see them to be used throughout every tier and be widely used ships. I think as a player who had trouble getting into the game for a good while they were some of the best additions to the game. Flying an Algos was so much more fun to me than flying a Catalyst and I was kind of sad when I moved up from that ship.

Again, apologies if this has been discussed to death or if there is a big discussion on the subject that I missed.

I, for one, would like my own Angel Cartel destroyer and battlecruiser. My only worry is that they'd look like weird slugs or insects, not that anything is specifically wrong with weird slugs and insects.

Perhaps we could start with Navy Faction destroyers/battlecruisers - Since they're regularly less powerful than the pirate ships of the same size classification, they'd only need a modest bump compared to existing T1 ships and would thus be easier to balance - at least in theory. Moreover, all they'd need visually would be a color change, which CCP has shown is entirely possible with the Every-Color Catalyst Project.

I'd love to fly a Fed Navy Algos.

gimme my pirate faction shuttle darnit

There were pirate rookie ships on singularity when I was last on, so maybe pirate destroyers and BC's will come at one point, along with new skills, new ships and maybe even new races.

But this is all just speculation, the pirate ships on Singularity could just be gift ships for the 10 year anniversary, or even something else entirely not related to my ideas above.
