Repeated intro

Hey guys! With the Trench Run release out of the way, we've been able to spend a little bit of time rounding out a KAG release. It should be out in the next hour or so on all platforms. This release features a round of bugfixes and "finally" some balance measures on the ballista! Still deadly, but less spammable!

changedHey guys! With the Trench Run release out of the way, we've been able to spend a little bit of time rounding out a KAG release. It should be out in the next hour or so on all platforms. This release features a round of bugfixes and "finally" some balance measures on the ballista! Still deadly, but less spammable! [list]
changedBallista and bolts now cost quite a lot more. The upgrade is also more expensive. This is intended to allow them to keep their role of dominating the battlefield in short bursts, without being prone to bolt-spam and spawn spam.
fixedSeveral bugs fixed with overlapping multiple Ballistae.
addedChat "..." bubble is now back - except for team-chat, which can be used for stealth tunnel planning
fixed[*] The "Surrender" vote is no longer bugged - please check this is indeed fixed but all investigations we've done show it working as expected. It seemed to be relying on a bad seclev. Hopefully this means less end-of-game griefing and gives players a better "gg" out than nextmapping - a team can decide to throw it in together rather than relying on the enemy accepting. [*]TDM no longer "soft locks" when everybody dies at the same time
