After long time thinking i came to this question - why they are not allowed to fly in 0.5+? Why they have so nerfed jumpdrives? Could someone answer these questions and compare ideas with games like X3 - Reunion ships jumpdrives?
In that game you can jump everythere with price of each gate distance on way so to jump from one map end to another it cost alot of resurces for it. There is no limit for haulers there is no limit where to jump - it simply costs you resurces to pass each gate distance. There is only limit for fighter class because jumpdrive is too big for them. When you jump, your jumpdrive computer arranges jump out point to nearest gate in destination system and that's it - you are in place... With carier size ship you may transport your allied ships -with- pilots to destination system so if your controled carier is controled by AI there you get transported to destination system when docked into carier which jumps out after.
Why there is no jump drives for smaller ships in eve at least down to cruiser size? Could be that implemented without cyno fields here?
If reason is about ganking/battles with capitals in 0.5+ systems here is simple solution for CCP dev team - simply disable capitals weapons slots and fighters bay so people would get message like "CONCORD security has disabled your device/drones."
Because there are ship types implementation for dead space and agents missions there is no more posibility to use capitals there too. So what is point not to allow them to fly in 0.5+?
People waste so much time(4 months+ for it) to train for first carier and they cannot use it fully...
Players, heads up, say yes or no for those ideas!

they where able to tank concord for too long, and missions are too easy in it, even u can farm complexes with it and thats not the aim of the game, carriers are more tactical weapons...

the solution is giving concord dreadnaughts with a slight tracking bonus to takeout a carrier if it tries anything funny.

if anyone is willing to bring a titan, motherships, carriers, dreadnoughts to assemble a kick ass force and jump them to jita to do some ganking.
let them, but give CONCORD jump-drive-scramblers (that overrides the immunity given to titans/motherships). 
bye bye iskies.

Capital ships can no longer go into deadspace, that pretty much stops them from doing any worthwhile missions and all complexes.

Hurr....
Mainly because this isn't X3 and because cap ships aren't meant to be used for afk mining veldspar in a 1.0 (damn you Chribba!  ).

Because this isnt X3 and capital jump drives are called that for a reason. There is nothing wrong with the current system. leave it alone and pray for a nice stable kali 2

What I'm wondering is with the planned implementation of Faction Wars. Will then begin to allow them into high security areas and perhaps allow the development of Player Factions to contend against the existing factions?

I doubt that player factions would be able to take over empire space, since that would cause a problem for newbies.
I think CCP should allow capital ships in high sec when factional warfare comes around though.

My understanding is that there is a number of carriers in highsec, due to the pos bug letting people build em in high sec pos's.
Anyhow, they cannot assign fighters in highsec, not even in a 0.4 system, but their use would bring a whole new phase to high sec wars.
At the moment, a dread is only good for killing POS's, and a carrier for safespotting while assigning fighters. Perhaps 5% of the time, you may get a carrier in a gatecamp, or part of a fleet attacking, say, a station but other than that, they have little use with current game mechanics
