Frankly I avoid combat as much as possible because the ships in EVE lack any kind of viable directional control.
We should have the ability to manually set a cooridinate in 3d space with out having to manuvaer around another object.
Either a 1st person taget icon, ponted in the desired direction of travel adn set with a trigger, or mouse pointer, and an alternate key will give the user the ability select location in wich to travel, and set waypoints.
this would be a nice adition to have, especialy with directional sheilding and weapons arcs.

That would be a great idea.
I'd be happy to make do with reliable orbitting options at the moment - I was having fun playing with my kessie today but with the rats coming towards me orbit is not an option - I ended up using the cargo containers as looping points and tracking a path through them that way as I killed them but yes, I agree that maneavrability in EvE is very lacking, particularly when its about all that keeps a frigate alive when up against bigger ships.

I would love to be able to hook a joystick in and fly an interceptor.

Are any of you familiar with the UI in Homeworld?
I think that interface for directional commands would work a treat in eve.
Although, i would want that to be implemented alongside the current options, not instead of...

Now that I think about it, there are a million differant ways to control a ship in virtual spcace. Yes, I liked the HW interface, that would be a good adition, and the idea of a virtual*****pit and the option to fly with a joystick.
Now before I started this thread, I failed to realize that you can double click on open space and the ship will head in that direction.
I'm sure most players have already figured this out, but if you hav'nt tried it, you will find it usefull.
A 3D virtual*****pit would make great eye candy.

I'd give something very valuable to get complete control of the ship's maneuvering and fly it for real, Freelancer style.
