    I love being able to force rent-a-cops to surrender and look forward to telling them to fight for us. Almost stealthed a jewelry store for the first time.

    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!

    Update size: 801.9 mb

    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.


    More information about the update here!

    yeah, i just specced out of them.

    with no help my silenced ak was doing better on a higher difficulty then my all the buffs shotguns were doing on normal.

    I am deeply saddened.

    This is good news. I am getting this game some time soon and worry that there won't be anyone to play it with me by the time I finally get it.

    How is that good news? A lot of people have stopped playing the game because of the latest update.

    Wait, in context it sounds like you're happy no one will be playing it.

    I think less people are playing it because the payouts are bugged right now.

    I was trying to say that I am happy there is an update. That update will keep people playing this game. I hope to soon buy this game.

    that should be fixed monday or tuesday.

    playing GTA V has made me want this game even more

    you can make some really dumb looking guns. it's pretty great.

    Interestingly enough that gun actually did okay. but that might be because i do 25% more damage on headshots and it has almost no recoil.

    Is anyone still playing this game? GTA5 didn't have the kind of heists this game appears to have.

    We need to look at finances, but I might pick this up this weekend.

    And I guess the ps3/xbox versions of the game are finally close to getting a patch

    i'm not sure if you are just twisting the knife or pouring salt on the wound or if you are just asking or what, but no, the big patch still hasn't hit consoles, from what i have read on the internet
    although i have read other things on the internet which suggest the ps3 version has seen several small patches

    TDOT was nice enough to gift me this game, so I am determined to find the fun in it.

    I have not been an enormous fan of the shooting this game provides so far, but we played a mission with a guy who was a little higher level than us and he stealthed through most of a mission, and THAT was an intense, pretty interesting experience, with dudes setting up ambushes and white knuckling it it every time a ! appeared on the screen. It just over all felt more like a caper rather than a bad shooter with a countdown timer.

    When are we playing again?

    Quick question, outside of the early beta access, there's no extra bells and whistles for owning Payday 1 is there?
