Hm. You still can get normal tech -- I've had ruins give me a few normally-accessible tech like gravitational weapons.

The most obvious change seems to be that ships now route themselves around storms, which is much, much better for the sanity, especially if you use the colonization minister. They still don't realize when a warp point damages the 'pod and that they have to turn back to repair, 'tho, so you still want to exclude systems sometimes.

Weapon platform mount sizes appear to have been added.

The race points have been toned down, methinks; ISTR that the old maximum was 10k for 'high'; now it's 5k.
