Big Update Catchup Notes

We put our patchnotes ingame but have been bad about updating them here, so we're changing our update process to sync up the ingame patchnotes with putting it here, so it's easier to see what we have been working on without going ingame. We have a new build coming later tonight, and fresh patchnotes at that time. -CarbonJames
