etc.

Unfortunately no Char customisation in SQ42 - will be done in the end of the campaign when you see yourself the first time in a Mirror -- I guess this is done cause the player will be a part of preRendered Cinematics.
And they didn't mentioned facial animations/expression at least I couldn't find it
When you have cake, it is not the cake that creates the most magnificent of experiences, but it is the emotions attached to it.
The cake is a lie.

Looking at this mocap making off video and the facial markings and the tech in front of the faces of the actors, i am quite sure that facial expressions are part of the FPS module.

And facial animations ARE already build into the CryEngine - i am quite sure they will use that existing part of the engine.
Clarification on character customization in Squadron 42 - choosing your physical look IS possible.

"I wanted to clarify this - Squadron 42 won't let you customize your character in the change-their-clothes/decorate-their-lives sense, but the plan is still to have you choose your gender and physical look at the start."
Have fun

Sway all day, butterfly flaps all the way!
CIG specifically mentions Enders Game as inspiration for the Arena.
Have fun
utterly crazy cool, can´t wait to get my grabby sweaty hands on it
SC FPS is more like ARMA, tactical. So, COD/BF kids will hopefully stay out
although I read somewhere it might be less tactically challenging with light/outlaw armor so I guess, choose your playstyle.
