After watching the link provided in a previous post, the new changes to jump height do not seem overly excessive to me.
It does seem like a new, less number intensive way to balance shields vs. armor however. If the movement penalty of armor plates extends to jump height (Not so much that we are back to square one, however), then shield suits can more fully embody the idea of higher mobility in a way that does not devalue armor plates by increasing the HP bonus of shield mods.
Additionally, I think that calculation for fall damage should be changed - as it unfairly punishes shield suits by taking out a larger percentage of total health on a less massive suit.
Thoughts?

You are aware shield suits have no hp if they jump, yet an amarr assault can use 3 slots to jump high...no penalties.

The ability for every shield suit to armor tank properly mitigates this.

I definitely think that regular armor plates should affect jump height, but ferro and reactive shouldn't.
But this is awfully early to be coming to any conclusions, because its day one of Echo, and I have yet to even play it myself.
