Fixes:

Fixed an issue where the objective status at the top middle of the screen seen when in an objective was missing or shown incorrectly

Reduced occurrences of the entitlements crash caused by Unreal Engine that could happen on launch

Under certain conditions, players will not see the active objective marker during the first spawn. Respawning seems to correct the issue
