Gangs can go to war, bitminers get a full desktop, the Blacksmith learns gemstones, and the Broker takes goods from a sell box.

Gangs

Gang Wars: Declare war on another gang from the Allies page. Kills and turf decide the winner, with optional stakes. The war shows on both gangs' territory banner and on HQ.
Weekly Contracts: Each gang gets contracts based on the jobs its members play. Finish tiers for gang XP and cash for members who helped. Find them on the HQ page.
Fortify: A new Territory upgrade makes it harder to take ground from a gang while its members are playing.
Upgrade Lines: Extortion, Home Turf, Veterancy, Tribute and Logistics are now five bigger steps each. Rungs you already bought still count.
Any Job Can Claim Turf: Gang members on any non-government job can claim territory. Police still stop captures.
Real Activity Pays: Gang payouts now favour members who are actually playing over idle ones.

IronMine Desktop: The terminal is now a full desktop with the IronMine app, a terminal, System Monitor and Files. Every old command still works.
Tuning and the Exchange: Pick Eco, Balanced or Turbo, watch the coin chart and set a one-time sell order. Turbo chips blades, and you pay to repair them.
Boot Sequence: A new miner boots through BIOS and a one-time installer where you name your computer and user. Mining waits until that's done.
Hung Miners: A miner can hang. End the stuck process in System Monitor to restart it.
Fan Hum: Working miners hum, and the pitch follows how hard they're running.
Cheaper Running: Generators burn fuel much more slowly, and the S1 and S2 upgrades cost a lot less.

Sell Box: Press E on a Broker with nothing in hand to open a sell box in your inventory. Drag goods in and press E again to sell them all at once. It shows on the Broker page too.
Knives: Kept and rental knives can now be sold from your inventory. Unboxed knives are worth much less than before.
Hollow: Offers at most one knife per visit, and round boxes vary in size per offer.
Remote Banking: Premium+ can deposit and withdraw from any ATM tier.
Money Shortcuts: Money commands read amounts like 2.5k, 1.75m and 3b.

Meth Cook: Cooks the Industrial Chemist's meth. Pick Meth, Glitter or Melange on the combiner, whose screen has a new look. Higher grades stay with the Industrial Chemist.
Meth in Your Inventory: Meth stacks by the gram, and its card shows weight, grade, description and Broker worth.
Freezer Trays: Press E on a racked tray to take it out of its freezer.
Pharmacist Formulas: Add up to three additives to a finished mix for traits that change a pill's value and effects. Some traits show on your character. See the new Formulation pages in the guide book.
Pinned Recipes: Pharmacists can pin a recipe from the guide book to the HUD.
Weed Growers: You're told where the generator's power button is if you miss it.

Gemstones: Refine Ruby, Amethyst, Jasper and Sapphire at the Mine Merchant. Rare and better guns and knives get gem slots you can set at the Blacksmith's Gemstones tab.
Fuming Potato Books: Five more books after the Hot Potato Books, dropped by world bosses.
Power Stones: Twenty stones, each with its own bonus. Maxwell teaches you a power once you've unlocked it.
Scuba Gear: Packs without a pocket, so it no longer takes a storage row. Gear you already own is moved into your inventory or stash.

Doors Under Attack: Infected break doors down faster and can pound through a fading door. Police in pursuit can kick in a locked door. A knocked-down door stays down as debris.
The Depths: More poison zombies and headcrabs, and the Toxic Bomber leaves a wider poison pool.
Blood God Crest: Now a rare Radiant drop.
Round Drops: Infected drop fewer rounds.

Retro Miner: Better metals burn more coal per batch.
Chat: The chat box stays on one line. Global and other chat names can be hovered and clicked, and View profile opens the game menu profile.
Minigame Answers: You can type minigame answers in global chat.
Mia and Jack: Their dialogue card now matches the game's look.
Escape Menu: The top bar fits 16:10 and 4:3 screens. The Game tab's Rules button opens the in-game rules reader.
F4 Menu: The price board is now called Commodities, and Rules, Guides and Links come first on the row. The Market's first page is Auctions.

Parties: Accepting a party invite now joins the party that invited you (thanks to Strange for reporting it).
Meth Crates and Pallets: Ones bought in the F4 menu now belong to you again (thanks to gtalover2 for reporting it).
Trashman: Fixed skill checks that ticked but never showed.
Bram: Fixed his menu not opening, and acid pools that never faded.
Sell Box: Fixed a stack being split or dropped mid-sale, and clearer messages when it won't take an item.
Sale Boosters: Fixed an issue with sale boosters.
Sale XP: Selling pays XP on the goods' value, not on boosters or bonuses.
Reforges: Fixed several issues with the Anvil, Accessory Bag and Blacksmith stat sheets.
Territory HUD: Fixed it not fading back in when a card arrived mid-fade.
War Cooldown: Long cooldowns read in hours and minutes.
Bitminer Menu: Every action now gets an answer, even a refused one.
Smoother Frames: Less work around the Meth Cook lab, drug effects and diving gear.
