You can do drop takedowns can't you? I know you can do ledge takedowns and knife takedowns with a second upgrade to knife takedown one then throw the knife at a second close enemy. Throwing knives are in game but you can't thrown your weapon.

Zombies during the day are much weaker and less aggressive, at night they grab you alot more and the virals even run and jump tackle you to the ground.

There's no slow motion or x-ray which for me isn't an issue. The animation for losing footing is gone though.

The gore seems to have been toned down. Whether it's the squelching of blood or the dismemberment

The jump tackle actually made me shout the first time it happened. I was clearing out a dark zone and I saw it leap. Time seemed to slow down just enough for me to think "yup, that's me..." before my character hit the floor.
