What exactly is the advantage of the KB/M? I've only tried it a little in other games and feel I do far better against people with a controller than KB/M, but perhaps I'm missing this apparent elite advantage it gives people.

Also, I use a DS3 and sometimes Move, but I still use a keyboard to type. Just because I have no interested in KB/M right now doesn't mean I'm gonna be typing away like some idiot on the virtual keyboard when trying to have a conversation or entering in data, that's just common sense.

basically, anybody who has played any kind of fps on a pc will agree that the mouse is simply better for aiming. It is was faster and more accurate since its basically point and click rather than using a joystick......

Not everyone is good at using analog controls, but there are very few people who cant point and click....anybody who uses a computer knows how to point and click lol, there no fumbling with your aim when your surfing the internet and your trying to click links and buttons.

So then I'll just use Move since its the same thing?

That's nice. So every kb\m user is going to own a corporation and simultaneously fight in Null-sec then. I hope you enjoy your 1 v 1 battles then. Right? See its stuff like this that just encourages me to play against these KB/M people to prove a point. I love how people tell me I'm going to get my ass kicked before its even put to a test. Challenge Accepted? Besides I've been playing EVE for a while, and I still prefer a controller over the KB/M. Doen't change the fact that I know very well what I'm doing with a corp and dealing with Nullsec life. Honestly I think people are just SO desperate to feel elite about something that they cling to the KB/M like it's some badge of honor that makes them more intelligent/capable of playing the game than us lowly DS3/Move users.

If not, then your just gonna have to suck it up and go KB+M, and CCP will have a lot of splaining to do to angry players How exactly? Slight twist of the wrist to point where you want on the screen, how is that any different from the mouse? Ever tried Move in Killzone 3?

It will be time consuming, non-intuitive, and frustrating. I'm a console player, by no means a PC Elitist, but the fact of the matter is that corporations, the economy, and Sov are going to be easier to deal with, when using KBM vs a DS3 And my point being, many people WILL us a keyboard and a mouse to deal with corporations, economy, and Sov....all the fun bits of the meta game. This doesn't however mean they'll be using that same KB/M for actual gameplay. Yeah I'll agree that using the DS3 to deal with those things will be difficult, which is why people will probably a get a KB/M specifically to deal with those aspects of the game. However this doesn't mean they're going to change their preferred mode of control for combat. Therefor saying that those who use the DS3 wont be dealing with Nullsec because it'll be hard to deal with meta game, is simply ridiculous. Give people a little more credit, they'll adapt with the tools they need when they need them.

Also true. As well as corporate forums and websites that will likely be accessed on a computer. The whole point of what I'm getting at is that what people use for their controller in combat is not representative of what they're interested in in terms of meta game, and the tools they'll use to engage in that meta game.
