The website changed (obviously). Also there are conquerable stations now. I suppose the Corvus Greyhound is probably new to you as well, if it was introduced when I think it was. New missions, some manufacturable items (via missions, especially at conquerable stations), cargo scanners and cargo scanner spoofers, and radar extenders. Storm exit points are now fixed rather than dynamic (I believe this is only temporary until they finally find and fix the source of the nefarious and resiliant "My convoy has a different jump point from me!" bug). Whoever "wins" in Deneb each week sends a war convoy to blockade the greyspace side of the other's nation space. Oh, maybe Deneb being an active warzone is new to you as well - each sector can be captured, changing the tint in the system map.

The hive now has its own "subfactions". I don't recall the exact spelling, but it's something like "Milanar" in Grey, "Prosus" in Itani, and "Siepos" in Serco. I think some manufacturing recipes call for parts from specific hive bots. And the three hives also have slightly different AIs. I haven't faught the Serco and Itani hives yet, so I can't comment on how they differ from eachother.

Most of that stuff happened after I joined a year and a half ago. I don't know what all happened before that. Maybe the TPG Raptor and Valkyrie X-1 are also new to you. Raptor has built in storm radar, and the X-1 is like an IDF Vigilant, but with a thinner profile and slightly different stats.

Both were around when I first started playing in 06. The Greyhound, methinks, came out about 2? years ago. I wish I was around for wraiths...

Aye. Though.
It has identical stats to the Valkyrie Vengeance, only flattened it's profile.
