Audio Changes

• Negative & Affirmative Comrose will now play 1P and 3P radioized VO if both players are in vehicle. If 1 player gets out of vehicle, and player inside vehicle triggers, both players will hear radioized VO (1P and 3P). If player outside vehicle triggers, the player outside will hear non-radioized 1P VO, and player inside vehicle will hear radioized 3P VO.
• Get Out comrose will now play 1P and 3P radioized VO if both players are in vehicle. If 1 player is out of vehicle and the player inside the vehicle triggers, the player inside the vehicle will hear 1P radioized VO, and player outside vehicle will not hear VO at all (since they are already out of vehicle, it is not necessary for them to hear it). Requesting Orders comrose now works the same as Negative & Affirmative Comrose (see above). 

Fall Patch coherence

• This release also includes a full integration of the Fall Patch – which means the changes you’d expect to see there should be in here. IE the vehicle balance should be the “new” one etc. Let us know if you find any inconsistencies!
