Wow you are full on ****** arnt you. People are pointing out quite rightly that what you dont like about this multiplayer game is that its multiplayer. Might i suggest you go and play something like Pippa Funnell: The Stud Farm Inheritance which might suit your play style a little bit better.

Yeah Eve's a load of **** because its not an fps. Imagine for a second actually trying to pvp if on top of everything else you had to control a ship on the 3 dimensional plane with wasd. Even joystick or freelancer style mouse control would reduce the game to a boring pile of ass.

Top 7 things I hate about Eve Online:
1) Cyno's - many players gang up against single players. Instant movement of large super capital blobs across vast distances.
2) Stealth ships - the untouchable vehicle for cynos. Instant-locking-after-decloak stealth bombers.
3) Bumping - Many players gang up against single players. Doesn't even do damage.
4) HS Wars - Many players ganging up against single players.
5) Blind gates - Many players gang up against single players, who cannot see the other side of the gate.
6) POS POS's - What a pain. Single players cannot control these independent of the corp (many players).
7) Titans and Supers - DD ista-pop carrier. Motherships with insane ehp and damage compared to their carrier counterparts.
I'm merely a highsec bunny so I'll ignore anything relating to nullsec
3: Bumping is a valid tactic to stop someone from doing something, whether it's mining, warping or docking. Believe me you don't want it to do damage, Jita undock would become a graveyard, exhumers, haulers and freighters would explode when bumped at sufficient speed, regardless of the size of the ship doing the bumping. Modern physics actually backs this up, look at kinetic energy and conservation of momentum, as well as the theory behind kinetic bombardment (normally only applies to dropping things onto planets from a great height but given the Dust tie in, it's relevant).
4: Highsec wars are between corporations, if you're a one man corporation, that's your problem, make some friends, hire some mercs, use allies. The mechanics are already in place, some people just choose not to use them.
5: Blind gates, you can already see what's waiting for you on the other side of a gate, it's called a scout in a cheap cloaky ship, once again the mechanics are in place, and once again some people choose not to use them.
6: POS's are meant to be a corporate asset, they can however be controlled by an individual player quite easily by using the mechanics already in place. If a person wants their own highsec POS then there are people who will quite happily sell them a corporation with the required faction standings to have one, one person can even defend a highsec POS successfully, it's what military experts call a d*ckstar.
Eve in a nutshell, it's you vs the universe, and every machiavellian space bastard in it.

Do you realize that your alliance is succeeding in its current war effort because of all these things you hate? Perhaps you should reevaluate your stance

Here is the thing.
People don't want "fair" fights where they have an equal chance of winning and losing. They want to win, all the time... or, far more than average.
As a result, good fights generally only happen when both sides think they can win. Which is rare, and of course, one side or the other is wrong.
Since good fights happen so rarely, people looking for kills are forced to do other things hoping to pick off weak, foolish or distracted stragglers. Gate camps, cloaky cynos, high sec war decs, Awoxing, etc. are all attempts to get kills with reduced risk of loss.
So, the problem is not with EVE, but rather is with the players. No one wants to be the loser, and no one wants a fair fight. They want to win, win, win... even if that means a lame, boring game, of picking off week, newb, lame, stragglers. |

CCP went against convention here. Not because EvE is a so-called sandbox (it's not a sandbox in a classic sense, too much micromanagement to really be considered one), it's because they changed the interface so much that it's an orphan.
Common controls makes it possible for players to hop into a game with ease. It's why the UIs are so familar across so many games/applications. They don't want players to spend an eon adapting to each new UI. It's doesn't follow logic even (especially conservation of resources -- why reinvent the wheel???).
If CCP wanted truly a unique interface they wouldn't rely on conventional keyboard shortcuts, either.
WASD doesn't exist because EvE doesn't have independent movement. To go "off-grid" you need a bookmark. You can't just travel to XYZ. For a game that also claims to be about PvP, it doesn't deliever the tools to play it as PvP.
EvE's UI isn't even like Homeworld's, it's like Microsoft Office.

My high sec bear is in a small corporation that was war-decced by a MUCH larger alliance looking for easy kills. It was three players - myself and two friends - against an alliance with well over a hundred active members.
I took to a covert ops ship, spent a day looking around for these people, and eventually found their home base. It turned out that this alliance likes to take in new players to the game - and not prepare them at all for war. I would sit in the system cloaked (sometimes for hours, waiting) until I found a newbie at a gate or asteroid belt or planet. I'd uncloak, kill his frigate, pop the pod, and escape.
I swapped to a bomber and popped a few mining barges, too. Then a destroyer for some quick fun. I would change things up, keep them guessing, so they couldn't just hit the directional scanner and see "Oh, there's a Coercer on scan, time to dock!"
After I had gotten a half dozen kills, some in a covert ops (because I could and it's humiliating) and sent polite mails to my victims (your alliance is not preparing you for Eve, they started this war, look elsewhere, check out Eve-Uni), they started to hemorrhage recruits.
That hurt. It didn't hurt their kill board much - the value of newbies in cheap mining frigates isn't exactly a lot - but it did hurt their pride and it hurt their morale. Once a few new players left for greener pastures, more followed.
The war ended not long after.
It doesn't make for a great war story, I don't consider myself some kind of elite PvP pilot, and I certainly don't like to shoot at newbies that just joined the game and don't know any better, but I didn't start the war.
So, what can we learn about this?
As a single player I cannot take on a large number of combat pilots by myself. I'm not Garmon nor any other elite PvP type. I don't have wads of cash for expensive ships full of faction and officer loot. I don't even have a booster alt.
What I can do is look for the weak links. The stragglers. The haulers. People who are a little less smart than I am about Eve (difficult to find, but they exist). The people who simply aren't paying attention and don't even know what a warp scrambler is.
I took the aggressive actions of a much larger entity and did the best I could to respond to it. Minimize my risk, maximize theirs.
What I didn't do was whine about it.
This happened quite a while ago. These days, you have a tool that I never did: You can open your war dec up for assistance from a third party. You don't even have to undock to fight back.

By giving the remaining players a much more authentic sandbox and overall fun game. And removing the endlessly whining, brain dead individuals from a great game and community. That is the only argument anyone uses in defense of hisec, but if your playing this game just to stay in hisec idk why you even bother subscribing in the first place.
