I actually think that eventually you can and eventually it will happen. The game's still being developed, and though much of it feels quite finished and fully playable, it's still a beta test. A lot of "lulzy" PKing seems to be just because there's no more non-PVP challenges left once you're top level and have good equipment - you don't "win the game" when you reach level 21, you don't fight against a super-powerful army and get your end stories and credits etc. You end up with a load of people (each one personally in possession of more equipment than than the entire worldwide supply of armours and weapons in the early Fallout games) for who the wasteland is no longer harsh at all, but they can still get a bit of fun out of making it harsh for other people.
When the NPC faction stuff, "domination mode" and other ideas, changes and things are implemented, then this will probably begin to change.

YAY! on the change, and ya i like the pking in a way because it makes it challenging, but yes this game should make people frustrated because its a wasteland and people should get there asses kicked at some point in time. I know i have and i love it because i can always bounce back and hopefully kick there ass in the near future!

You cant use any other briefcase. So new quest, new alt.
And yes Frog. This game is frustrating. I can only hardly remember times when i enjoyed this game ...

Problem is that it pretty much promotes and encourages that kind of behaviour. You can't stop assholes from playing online games but you can balance it to prevent that kind of idiocy, sadly I don't think it is possible to do that and at the same time keep what makes this game so great.

This is my point yeah, if anybody else replies to this post saying, 'Another whiner', no I was pointing out all the asshole players who don't give new players a chance to start out therefore crippling the player-base. As well, I was turning a quest in at New Reno, and a douche-bag named SSakul kills me so if you guys want to look out for him. And yes, I have found out that questing isn't a good way to earn exp, but it's pretty fun still in my opinion.

But imagine how great you would fell when you'll pwn some noob fourth time in a row with your powerbuild avanger burster. ;-) Thats why we play the game man. Not for carrying mordinos briefcases. Join some gang and they can teach you how to exploit your way to the top fast. In about month you can be pvp ready with most of important support alts if you know how.
