- Fixed an issue where Shepard did not auto-crouch when entering cover in some places
- Fixed a tool-tip indicating a game restart is needed before enabling hardware or software audio if the option was changed
- Fixed an issue where ambient conversation would not be heard from rear speakers sometimes
- Fixed a text string to make it clearer on how to exit a vehicle
- Fixed a text string so the tool top for dragging the map is clearer in French languages builds

In addition, you will also be able to download Bring Down the Sky by hitting the badge below but you will also have to get a new CD key.
This game lives on a level of awesomeness very few other games even come close to, and the DLC just makes it even better.
Sadly, the patch doesn’t fix anything..
