Important change, one of many, with an impact on MP:

Added: Drawing markers is now connected with the current (VON) communications channel also

 

What this means: if player A adds a map marker to SIDE channel, anyone tuned to another channel (including A!) will not see that marker. It does become visible when you tune the correct channel.

That's not how I understood it. 

I thought it meant that it would work the same way in-game chat works, everyone always sees side messages, your group always sees groups messages etc

 

Anyway, I'm hoping all their AI changes have sorted out some of the many bugs with operating UAVs

Tested in-game. If someone places a marker on side channel, but you're tuned to vehicle chat, you won't see the marker. Even if you're on side channel, but have a designated button for another channel (to simulate different radios), the moment you key that button, you lose markers until you release it.
