FPS plus RPG should be done a hell of a lot more.
Overall, I'm pretty happy with this game. More so than I dared hope. To all these dang American devs who keep releasing 4 - 8 hour FPS all I have to say is "SUCK IT!! RUSSIA RULES!!!" First the Ukraine's Stalker and now this. FPS plus RPG should be done a hell of a lot more.
I'm still on the first planet and just figured out I could take that helicopter thing for a spin.
Ok, first get Russian audio from here:

I had to split the archive coz of the 1GB upload maximum, I use WinRAR to decompress.
Copy both files included into your 'Precursors\packages' directory (Note that there's also a file called main.fat included, that is required too or you'll get errors)
I've tried it and it works fine, all of the ambient sounds can be heard again and it makes a huge difference. Hopefully it fixes the bug outs people have been experiencing.
This will fix bug with audio dropouts, that happen with English version, plus make game more enjoyable since there will be voiceovers for all dialogs (in Russian), instead of silence.
But, since that also converts cutscenes to Russain, and they have no subtitles, story will be difficult to follow.
So, you also need this to override Russian voice-overs in cutscenes with those from English version:

Just unpack to game folder. It will make new SOUNDS folder with English cutscene voices.
