First off, great job on NS4! Played it for a few hours monday night/tues morn and so far everything is looking good for a beta server (more then usual discon's, lag ect but id expect that from an open beta) Only have one concern at this point...
Unlike NS3, you can only have one person interacting with a merchant or quest NPC at a time. While this certainly adds to the "realism" of the world, it would only take one person (or a small group) to tie up all the merchants and quest NPC's for however long they feel like frustrating the rest of us. The merchants especially, seeing as how (at least in the city ive explored the most, NS) not all of them are buyers as well as sellers.
So any thoughts on the matter?

remember many of the npc's in ns were like that too take the lady who ports you to the nexus for example. Ya it was kinda crazy trying to talk to npc's when they first opened up the servers but after a little while there wasnt much trafic at all.

Crowding in Merchants will only be for a little while untill ppl reach lvl 10 maybe,then we wil be able to craft most and not need merchants but for id or few times buy some items.So just wait till then,everyone talkin to an npc makes it kinda irritating too u cant keep up with your own conversation with the npc with all these convs appearing in your screen

Nightfall...quetly it crept in and changed us all...
