Some co-op changes have been made to improve the game. Now Gold Cup missions always start with two buzzsaws instead of giving you random tools which makes things more predictable. Also the quick join feature is being removed after watching how players use it. This change is likely because quickplay was putting players into empty lobbies and making them the host of random heists basically the opposite of what quickplay is supposed to do.

There are also several balance updates for co-op. You’ll now earn more XP in Warehouse Defense and the rewards for Bank, Jewelry Store and Compound missions have been slightly increased. However cash rewards for Assassination missions have been reduced. Some smaller missions had their money and XP payouts slightly adjusted too. And finally Armored Convoy missions now give more XP than regular Armored Truck Heists.

There are some other big changes in the update too besides the co-op improvements. Now new missions will only show up for players who are above level 15. Also the perk descriptions have been updated to make their effects easier to understand.
