Goldfarb states that the new map isn't a variation on Jewelry Store and also says that AI will be able to carry bags soon. Apparently they also tooled the money you get at the end so it focuses a bit more on bags. This patch sounds massive and also awesome as hell.

Uh aren't bags already a good 50% of the money you make.

Cash cards are still in, but they got buffed so they aren't as useless now.

AFAIK, cash cards are still in, they're just not insultingly small anymore. Also Goldfarb has previously teased new money sinks.

Now I can look at all this cool stuff and go back to my beta-status PS3. Has there been any news on that recently, about when it will be enough to justify patching this stuff in?

They have to test all of the patches on the consoles and then send them out to Sony/MS to cert them before they can be added. I assume everything from this point on though will be added soon. This seems like a pretty good place to do that.

Yeah I'd imagine that legit new content would be "enough" to qualify as some kind of semi-necessary patch. The patch also seems to change up some gameplay stuff in a significant way as well.

Hey guys!

Our largest update yet! This one carries a lot of free content like a new heist, 4 new masks, new economy and much improved AI and difficulties. Pay a visit to the Nightclub and Big Oil as well. They got a lot of new stuff in them!

Team mates

Improved killer instinct for the AI team. They are more aggressive and more prone to stay alive even on the OVERKILL difficulty. Single player never looked more tempting.

Difficulty

Much harder OVERKILL! Yes you got it - now dont cry.
SWATS now have much better flashbangs - use the shades!
More balanced single player sessions
BULLDOZERS are now EVIL

Police AI

Added more and better run and walking animations for our dear enemies.

Crime.net

Improved Payouts!:

The Crime.net economy has got a major upgrade. After looking at massive amounts of data and collecting player feedback we have implemented and tested a new economy system.

Each contract now has reward dependant on the mission specifics. Some contract amounts can seem low but the REAL value is in stealing the LOOT BAGS. If you sling a lot of Coke for Hector he will compensate you greatly. The reward is different depending on the number of coke bags you clear. On the other hand, if you hit Big Oil + it is not at all about bags and more about completion. If you get the engine to the helicopter and escape you get a hefty contract pay. This makes the game more tactical and you have to fight greed on almost every map.

Thanks to everyone who helped out with this!

CrimeNet is now balanced so you can chose to play for XP or Money or a middle way. Learn this by playing the heists on different difficulties. There are some anomalies to be found and taken advantage of!
NOTE: If you are in a BAG focused mission, go for the additional bags - they pay out several 100% more than the mandatory bags (for which you get the contract pay). BUT remeber - GREED KILLS!
Multiday jobs pay out greatly and are very rewarding once you figure out how to move additional bags through them.

Presentation

Crime.net has reduced its somewhat cluttered info when counting the PAYDAY and contract money for you. You will be presented with a PAYDAY number that shows the amount of money the contract is worth EXCLUDING the LOOT BAGS. This is the offshore account money and 10% of that becomes you spendable cash. Look into it. it is simpler and more straightforward.
All cash numbers are now presented as Offshore money until converted to spendable cash.
The Contract filter is back!
Kick Filters. You can now set Kick enabled and filter on that on Crime.net.

HUD

We now display mission bags value on PAYDAY for both mandatory and additional bags in TAB stats screen during gameplay.

Skills

Boosted Aced Combat Medic revive bonus from 25% to 40%.
Enemies more affected by ECM feedback and civilians are no longer affected.
Added Inside Man Assets on almost all levels so that you can buy a EXPERT DRIVER that 100% takes away the Escape.
Made sentry gun tier 6 more effective.

Loot Drop

Added EXP cards in the loot drop for fast leveling
Added much better cash cards!

Weapons

New reload animations for the Deagle!
Texture fix for the "professional" sight.
IZHMA 12G Shotgun damage is buffed.
M308 Rifle has had its damage adjusted correctly.
Kobus 90 Submachinegun got a damage increase with long barrel weapon mod. added.

That's just a thing that Payday does because they compress everything so you don't have to download 3 gigs in case you're on a bandwidth cap. It'll just stop after a while to extract all the data and then keep going. At least, that's what I think happens.

Diamond Heist is like an expanded jewelry store with more bags and more instant cash. It's a very big firefight if you set off the alarm, with how open it is stealth won't be easy.

Bulldozer appears to have something like 50% more health.

Very Hard cash card gave me 40k.
