My bad.

I just finished reading through the entire manual and the official changelist is not complete. Here 's a more complete one (part I is official, II is what I think changed).

Gameplay changes in 0.8:

Part I

• 3 new game modes: Command & Control, Skirmish and Training
• Critically wounded soldiers can be revived for up to two minutes. They can use the “Give up” button on the Caps-Lock map to opt out of waiting for a medic
• Medics can now resuscitate downed soldiers which untangles them from the
  ground. This is useful to make sure the epipen will do it's job
• Insurgents can build hideouts to spawn at
• Regular armies and the militia can deploy a heavy machine gun emplacement
• The spotting system has been overhauled. Automatic spotting is practically gone. Squad leaders can send a contact report to the commander. The commander can confirm those reports and place markers on the map to warn the rest of the team
• Artillery and mortars have been added to the list of possible area attacks
• Pistols & SMGs do not suppress other players. Shots also need to travel some distance before they have a suppression effect
• Weapons need to be reloaded manually
• Bunkers & Fire bases do not resupply soldiers and vehicles anymore
• Deployable assets can be placed without permission if no commander is on the team
• Rally points can be placed anywhere. They are overrun and destroyed if 3 enemies get close to them or if 6 squad members die in their vincinity
• Grenade launchers need to be fired at targets at least 30-40m from the shooter or the grenade will not detonate
• All factions have a command post which is enterable by the commander. The commander can only use his map while inside the post.
• The enemy tickets are not displayed
• The main gun in any armored vehicle has a 30s usage delay
• Soldiers start to bleed out when their health drops below 75%
• Civilian collaborators will always respawn after 2 minutes regardless of how they died
• Insurgents can be arrested using the restrainer or the shotgun
• Insurgents need to defend at least 3 out of 12 weapons caches
• Capturing a control point takes at least 3 men
• Limited kits have been reduced in number and are only reallocated every 10 minutes
• Light machine guns can be used in deployed and undeployed modes. When deployed they can only be fired while prone but are very accurate
• Deploying bunkers & fire bases does require 2 supply crates. A supply truck is not needed. Other assets just need to be build close enough to a forward
  outpost and do not require any supplies

Part II

• While holding a mine the primary commo rose can be used to place a red warning marker on the team's map. Placing a new Marker will delete the old one. The commander also can place and delete this marker
• A temporary spawn time penalty which only affects the next time you die (stacking up to 5 minutes) is added by these actions:
  ○ Teamkill: 15 seconds per TK
  ○ Suicide: 30 seconds (90s for civilians)
  ○ Civilian killed: 120 seconds per civilian (max. 5 minutes)
  ○ Own weapons cache destroyed: 300 seconds (also -100 score)
• Anti-tank mines and trip flares will arm themselves 15 seconds after placement - think this was 5 seconds before
• The Combat Engineer carries an assault rifle with iron sights, a shotgun loaded with slugs, a tripflare, an anti-tank mine, a wrench and a shovel. On some maps the mine is replaced by a grappling hook
• The Militia Medic comes equipped with the PPSh-41 submachine gun, and some smoke grenades. Healing and reviving works as with the regular medic - Militia gets to revive
• The Insurgent carries the AK-47 rifle, one RKG-3 anti-tank grenade, a shovel, a pair of binoculars and some extra ammunition in a bag, which he can drop
• The civilian Collaborator is unarmed. His only way to attack others is by throwing rocks at them. He can drop a few field dressings for his friends and repair vehicles with his wrench. He can also help others access high places with his grappling hook. He can use his cellphone to call in mortar strikes. Coalition players must not shoot civilians or face punishment
• As more intelligence is gathered red diamond markers appear on the map showing the rough area of the weapons caches (they may be up to 140m from the marker)
• Insurgents start with 100 tickets and lose 10 for each destroyed weapons cache. This is the only way for the insurgents to lose tickets.
• On sniper rifles, the "switch fire mode" key (Default 3) can be used to activate a breathing sound. This simulates breath control and gives you an audio cue for when your accuracy will be at its maximum. Holding down the fire button after shooting will allow you to track your shot before rebolting the rifle
• If you use an officer kit containing a signal grenade, you can access it with the 9 key
• If 3 enemies are very close to the rally point (about 50m) or if 6 squad members die in this radius, then the rally has been overrun and will also be destroyed. Once destroyed, the squad can't place a new rally point for 2 minutes
• Deployable MG 's, AA, razorwire and sandbags must be constructed within 200m of a forward outpost
• Deployable assets can be wrecked (rendering them useless) and destroyed by further damaging the wreck. Knifing the radio twice will damage forward outposts enough to make them collapse within a short time.
• Supply trucks can unload two supply crates which can be dropped by the driver by using the alternate fire key.
