I've been playing my copy for an hour or so and so far am very impressed. Gone is the somewhat clunky flight model as far as I can see. It's not perfect but feels a lot better than the first two. Weapons fire is a whole lot better and the interface is very clean and uncluttered. Somewhat reminding me of Eve. I've just be following the plot so far so haven't really visited many places yet but its early days yet. Just drooling over some of the visuals to be honest. Some of the stations are truly huge this time around.
