I personally like the dark. It sucks to see in, but that's a good thing imo. I think the PDA basic light might be bugged as it doesn't seem to do anything unless you hold your PDA in your hand? Maybe that's on purpose, and I'm actually fine with how it works right now, but I don't think most people know that. It's not a great light while held, but it helps a lot.
EDIT: I was wrong about PDA flashlight not working while on ID slot. I usually activate my PDA light at roundstart then slide my ID in/put both into ID slot, and it seems that the light stops working while worn like that until you toggle it. If you have your PDA light on, put it in your hand, then put it back, it won't work while worn until you toggle the light again.
If you buy/find a high powered flashlight module for your PDA it's pretty great for finding stuff around you. I think it would be good if flashlights had the high-powered flashlight module light as well. The spotlight effect is cool and good in hallways but it doesn't help if you're trying to stumble around in your work place. I have to find a wall and stare at it point blank to get a good view around me with the flashlight which isn't great.
I really liked the darkness change as it made stuff like night vision really valuable. NVG used to be completely pointless as it only barely increased visibility and made you very vulnerable to flash. Now I bring one every time as a nuke op and sometimes raid the armoury just for it if it's pitch black.
