in eve PvP is fuking lame
every time it boils down to who wants to bring more people. This is the unfun factor. All you can target is 'spaceships'. Bringing more spaceships means more chance for success.
Eve becomes a game of numbers.
2nd, in eve you can avoid PvP, warp off, log off, they never get you. In classic MMOs and FPS you may not instantly escape if you are already in
trouble. In eve you can, it makes it very boring and therefore most PvP is done with 'no consent' from other counterparties. I.e. smaller group gets ganked unexpectedly. Gatecamping shuttles. Griefing, Pros vs Nubs.
To me this reads like that you don't understand what the game is about. EVE always was planned to be a game with numbers. It's just logical that a sandbox game like EVE will grow and that space ship fleets are about numbers. The game has a steep learning curve and you are able to fight against numbers or pick up targets for a fun fight if you know how to do it. I am not talking about the classic 1v1 - you can ask for this everywhere but you will not find it at top belt these days because most people simply don't fly alone. The game grows and the more people join the more and bigger fleets we will have. So what's wrong with it? If CCP would work out limitations they would break the whole concept and then you can start to play a classic shooter.
Yes, in EVE you can avoid PvP but just not logging in. Tbh, I can't follow what you want to tell us. There are enough player with experience and skills able to deal with the game right by not warping off and log because they want to PvP. I could hunt down a couple of macro ratter in the past and ppl tried to tell me before: waste of time, it's impossible because the bot warps and cloaks. Rubbish. From my experience I knew that it would work and I just had to work out the right method with the right timing and what EVE teached us from the beginning: with patience.
To me you sound like someone who has not really much experience in PvP. You probably run around in your ships and whine when you got killed by a gate camp. I made all this experience since 2005 and ofc it can **** you off when you run blind again into a gate camp but at the end I found a way to play with gate camps. PvP in EVE is complicated because it depends on skills, the right fitting, imps and how much you will invest. It's normal to fly around in 100-250m fitted ships. An EVE starter is not able to imagine that he will fly some day a 200m ship for PvP. An EVE starter has no idea that expensive imps make a difference. An EVE starter is simply too scared and unsure because of lack of skills and experience. An EVE starter has no control over adrenaline. There are so many things in this complex game you need to go through and learn before you are able to fight 5-10 campers without losing your ship.
At the end you are lost in EVE if you are not a part of a group or if you are running all the time blind into/around low- or null-sec. And that's EVE. If you don't like it you need to leave it because CCP never will change it to an Arcade game.
