Winning a PVP battle gives you some caps (the game’s currency) and some experience points based on your levels.
If you kill a player who never accepts your invitation to do PVP, you become a “wanted murderer.” You get no caps or experience."

It sounds like they're trying to keep both the PvE/Explorers and the PvP/blow shit up crowds happy and based on what they've explained in that article they're making a boring game where neither group is going to be particularly happy once the novelty wears off.
