Go sol, create char,make 36K, buy a car. and then  tell us your feelings.

I'd be walking everywhere, I'm cheap :)

Its still not that long from starting, I should hope there weren't loads of cars everywhere.

A few responses back it was stated that once you leave there is a 10 minute window where people can see your car parked.

I hope you are not right about the first sentence, only dev can say that...
I would enjoy the game more if it was more multiplayer, which public transportation boosts, not the privacy of cars.
Anyways I'm not for making cars entirely useless like previous era either. I even say lets shorten the time, when the car can be found...
Public transport should be cheap (not 100c per ticket...), less conveniant, alternative to cars...

Quoted for truth. Especially the bolded parts.

This game has few enough interactions between players outside guarded cities that don't conclude with gunfire. I for one know I'd be more then delighted to wait a few minutes for a train (which costs 50 caps or even less), chatting with others and stuff. With maybe just 2 semi tough guards guarding train stations, so not everyone can just kill the whole bunch of people there but 2-3 people with coordinated efforts could.

Well then he deserves to temporarily take over the train station doesn't he?

No because any fool could do that.

I can go without that extra public transport interaction.

I get plenty of interaction already. Wastelanders interact with my bullets all the time.

It's enough that 5 n00bs will walk from point x to point y seperately instead of going together. Wasteland is lonely enough, no need to make it even lonelier. All I'm saying is...PUBLIC transport, however done can only be good. It forces more player interactions, even if it creates another PK arena. As it is now, I don't think many people are using it and that in itself is a problem.

I rest my case. :p

Public Transport

We talking about the train? 

So I don't have enough to do in real life already but now I get to have fun synchronizing real life time to in-game time.

I would suggest something like taxis or a bus that is armed and guarded.  Its a tad bit faster than walking but its safe and doesn't require time keeping.  It would always be available at a city depot and all ya need to do is click the taxi and money is auto deducted from your caps.  This way you can keep your cap sin your hand without the fucking thieves robbing you blind.

Except other players and game mechanics enabling those players to stop them, for the "Lulz"

Risk vs Reward.I'm sure you could get a few players together as guards, lead clients out to the wasteland to your car and then drive them out into the wastes.
