Hello all you wonderful mercs! I have been enjoying my long needed break from dust and am prepping to dive back in. Since delta has released I'm sure a lot has changed, I've been seeing a lot of bolt pistol threads and such.
So anybody with a little time to bring an old vet up to speed would be appreciated. More specifically I'm a dropship pilot, if there are any python pilots out there that could tell me what to expect would be excellent!
Cheers!

If you are using a python, you can still do great things with them but I warn you now...... play very timid and do not try and take on any more than 1 swarmer. Be prepared to GTFO of dodge the second you get attacked......or DIE!
Oh by the way, they absolutely massacred the RoF skill. From (the possibly OP) 10% per level to (the certainly too low) 3% per level.
On missiles this equates to an extra 7.5rpm at max skills..... so terrible.

infantry is pretty much perfectly balanced aside from the bolt pistol. You can see a huge variety of suits and weapons. Standard dropships got buffed, ADS got nerfed. You can read the changes for yourself in the sticky in the feedback section
You can't fight in here! This is the war room.

Depends how long you been gone for.
Cloaks Nerfed to shorter times.
HMG buffed, Burst HMG overbuffed getting toned down, Assault still not loved, Militia variant added.
Delay between cloak and firing maxed out for now.
ADS cheapened in price
Small turrets are cheapened in price
Sniper Rifles Re Rolled into new guns entirely. Standard is longest reach best balance, Charge is the executioner go for dem headshots! and tactical is a long range dmr.
Nova Knives got a new skill
ADS neutered from godhood; its role is now regulated to rooftop invasions and clearing instead of murdering everything below.
Swarms buffed cept assault assault is still bad.
Side arms brought in line with each other in comparison to the smg. Bolt pistol however got too much of the nice things.
Several Dozen weapons have been given different accuracy profiles. For example Longer range it is the more terrible it is to control in hipfire environments and vice versa.
SCR has been notched down a bit too much but then again blame turbo controllers.
Plasma Rifles are yet to be renamed are much healtier spot than ever before
New Officer weapons are on their way they include the likes of a fully automatic shotgun, breach HMG, Charge Sniper Rifle, assault plasma cannons, Assault Laser Rifles, and much more provided they get past the mad science behind them.
Officer Sidearm event is going on now, person with the highest single day record most kills on any single militia side arm weapon will get the honor to name the officer variant.
Missing militia light weapons where also added. Thought not all have bpos yet.
Speaking of which BPO sidearms for everything! and militia BPCs too!
Assaults had first bass, logis had a pass, scouts had a pass, heavies had a pass, everything had a pas sin balance. Another round seems necessary now though.
Just more and more and more lots to list.

Python, lol. Yeah, even you will die easily. CCP just "rebalanced" everything right back around to where they started.
