The Darkness

I've noticed that maps, at least the Forge ones, start off really dark at the begining of a game. It seems that the maps start really dark and lighten up progressively over the course of the first few minutes of gameplay.

Thoughts:

Seems like this only happens on the Forge maps, which could mean it's got something to do with the need to render so many objects and shadows. It could help to relieve the system and gradually load the lights in rather than all at once.

I found it interesting so I thought I'd share. :)
