Absolutely, I will say it again, PVP battles in EVE are boring as ā ā ā ā . I only play EVE to mine and build stuff. If I want real ship on ship combat, I would play Star Citizen, Elite Dangerous, No Mans Sky and many other shooter titles. Something about only being able to click on the ship you want to shoot and either orbit to or ram it. Lets not forget the exciting part, you get to turn ship mods on and off. Sorry man, real dog fights are the only way any ship on ship battle should be and thats where EVE online failed for 20+ years. The only thing that made this game fun has been destroyed by the CCP DEVS. You may not like what I said but that is why I played this sandbox game. Its just my opinion and I know there are many that love the ship on ship combat style in EVE, Iām just not one of them.

Youāre welcome to your opinion, but this doesnāt translate particularly well to large ships.
Dog-fighting involves forward-pointed weapons, which makes no sense for large ships with many turrets mounted all over their hulls.
Actually, if you read Star Wars and Star Trek books and lore, they both talk about ship design methodologies that focus around mounting enough firepower around the entire ship so that you could focus the entirety of your offensive reactor/energy output in any direction at any given time.
The only way to approach anything of the sort in EVE would be to create a ābroadsideā system that you can find in games like Rebel Galaxy. The problem with that is that it would make large fleet fights almost impossible, and thatās kind of EVEās main selling point.

Some other guy talked about how people arenāt around anymore,
because they ā¦ and he himself ā¦ instead yeet to nullsec looking for fights.
Do you think this is a contributing factor?

imo
i donāt think so
i go there to but is a day trip thing
edit:
arenas IMO are not a factor to
we have some arena guys in low , this is kinda bad because they are the ultra blinged dudes from alliance tournament famous corps
low its weird nowadays

In Star Citizen you can have people man those turrets but the turrets are all gimbaled which means you donāt have to point the ship to shoot. Once you have a lock , the turrets will shoot the other ship as long as it is with in range.

But thatās what we have in EVE already. You can pilot EVE ships manually if you want to, while the weapons shoot by themselves. So whatās the issue?

Yea Faction warfare needs a lot of love, the tier system needs to change so that 1 side isnāt pathetically weak while the other is strong that only encourages farming mentality and market manipulation with the swing, CCP needs to come up with a way that people are rewarded for killing players time and time again every single day different people and not the same alt that some guy has to farm with his main.

Tracking/transversal and all that is a lot more complex than guns auto shooting every few seconds.

Most people donāt I went into an ess once and the guy came with 5 munnin alts with arties and sat 0 trying to kill meā¦
Although a vindi bhaal and other ā ā ā ā came just before the first munnin died to my stabber xD
I guess that overwelming force stops some people from ever needing to learn game mechanics in depth.

All this is great suggestions I would add one more:
Inside FW Plex while within capture range:
While within capture range +10kmās further there is a blue sphere that increases align time by 50%.
Eg: A plex that requires you to be 15kmās from the beacon would have a 25km radius bubble that only effects align time.
If people appear on 5 au dscan you have to either stand your ground and fight or mwd/ab out of the sphere which pauses the timer or warp immediately with the extra 50% warp out time.
This stops the 0.1 au insta warp botās as it will be to late to warp when you already see someone on 0.1 au.
One thing that must never come to faction warfare is something that stops MWD like in ess, mwd mixed with ab meta is essential for good FW fights, as mwd counters blobbing to a degree such as dual prop ships.

i dont like it that much
is kinda bad for AB brawlers
moving all the time wen things appear on dscam
i do it and there is no blob , just to adjust range
i think just removing the t3 destroyers and managing the teams is enough
100% agree

The problem then becomes daredevils with full damage and 3x inertia stabilizers the caldari used tons of these while Pveing the combat plexās and its almost impossible to catch them unless they miss click.
@tutucox_Khamsi What about setting a minimum align time to 3 seconds to any ship entering the combat plex? lol then no one would fit under 2 sec align fits xD
I remember when fw just came out and it was impossible to get the timer all the way down without someone trying to come in and fight, man I miss those days, killing tornadoās on gates with condors and stuff man old FW was some of the best times in my eve experience.
What FW is now, just makes me sad, I often find my self logging in for the daily reward sitting in station a bit going over in my head what I would expect if I undocked my ship and roamed to fw space and get depressed and log off again.
