I'm sorry I don't remember any of it. For you the day spideycw graced your squad with utter destruction was the most important day of your life. But for me, it was Sunday

You understand that the pulse probe change only effects exp vs. tac scenarios, and only barely, right? Successful miner defense with ints against tac doesn't involve pulsing out all the stealths and then chasing them down, it involves either camping approach alephs or staying on point defense for a miner with multiple scouts, and then killing the SFs as fast as possible when they make their run.
The thing I recall most people whining about hasn't changed at all: ints will still be able to fly into a sector, drop a pulse, and eye every miner/con/bomber there with pp1 at the mid-game level. Having a 6.7k limit instead of a 12k limit on spotting those things won't make any difference whatsoever in terms of actual gameplay.
I also don't understand the omicron tech base change. Omicron is not IC, and this only exacerbates the problem with Omicron where it has a very weak early game due to very poor basic figs, and now it's forced into remaining in that period for a longer period of time. It also confuses me as Omicron suffers additional research costs anyway because all of the small ship turret weapons need to be individually purchased.
I'm also very surprised at the gauss cannon nerf, considering how expensive it is to get for a faction playing tac - which has always had issues with effectively defending their economy mid-game against brutal force.
I am even more surprised at the lack of any shipyard changes whatsoever. We have gone six months with Shipyard - particularly missile destroyers - in the state it is in, which is widely acknowledged by the community as being overpowered to the point where people don't want to play with shipyard enabled at all. That seems like a pretty major issue to me, and for it to go unaddressed at all with such a long period between releases is rather shocking.

Gauss is not worth it if you have to hit with it, or do only half damage?

The PP change isn't meant to solve all PP issues (that would better be solved by taking the thing out). Its a small change meant for enh exp v enh tac
Gauss hasn't been nerfed at all, unless you were relying on the aoe to solve all your issues for you. Even if you can't aim at all it still does good damage
The SY changes are coming up rather soon anyways. I invite you to check back soon for the HK changes discussion.
