Please make an option in the graphic setting to change the FOV.

There is an option to change the field of view however it is not located in the settings it is located on your mouses scroll wheel by default.

And my pc cant make me coffee.

The thread is about making a slider for it in options to make it a permament setting in eve for whoever wants to change it.
If i have to explain for what - you dont need it.

Ed. And i dont use a mouse.

But thats not the point

There should be something like this for people to udjust their gameplay environement. Its something that probably isnt hard to implement (turret effects, engine trail etc). And the function to change the FOV is already there as you said with the mouse.
But id rather play on a smaller one all the time, now its like 80ish, more like 50-30 is what i would like to have all the time without reseting itself.

Would be like sliders in eve sound, there are people that use it and the oposite. And there are those who use it ocasionally.

Its just that it wouldnt hurt anyone (except the one coding it) at all its just there...

So your fancy / expensive pen based computer lacks a basic function, a basic function that has been a part of computers and software for more than 20 years. And now you want CCP to add something to the game that is not needed because your computer lacks this very basic function. Sounds like a problem for you to take up with the manufacturer of your computer, monitor and it's pen not something that CCP needs to handle.

Yes I do have a pen on one computer I work with a lot it was part of the graphics tablet, yes that graphics tablet was cheap less then $100 U.S., and yes that tablet / pen combo has a function that replicates the scroll wheel of the mouse, and yes it is just as easy to access and the scroll wheel on a mouse.

As for the ability to lock your field of view in place I say no, that would be more trouble than it is worth. Considering how often I change this during a gaming session even the thought that it may get locked in place is enough to say no.

Because YOU dont need it it doesnt mean it is not needed.

If you would be able to read with understanding what you are reading - you would know the scroll thingy is irrelevant.
But i see you only red the edited part. I dont care what you use to play eve, and i dont see the need for you to know what i am using.

Cool you have stuff in your home you use for w/e. How is anything in what you wrote relevant to this topic ?

EDIT. And i dont really understand why you are answering your imaginary questions :s thats quite sad
