Rerquest: Make your player character cast shadows.
I don't see many games do this, however I think it adds a lot.
I understand, it's an extra skinned and animating mesh to render in a shadow pass and the animations have some trouble lining up with what you see in first person since they are seperate but I think it's worth it.
At least it would be more consistent, it's weird to be rushing past all these shadow casting lights in a skulk pack and seeing these cool shadows from everyone but yourself.
Also, without the shadows, you can't tell if your truly concealed as an ambusing skulk hiding in the ceiling/rafters because you're completely unaware if you're casting a revealing shadow on the ground.
