I've been using a pre-release version of 24.4 for months, and I'm loving it.
Ruby-mode got a huge improvement in its indentation. I was able to delete all of the hacks out of my .emacs files, and it works exactly the way I want it to.
The new superword minor mode is really useful. It lets to treat snake cased words as a single word, which makes recording macros a lot simpler in Ruby, Python, etc.
I've also found that I didn't have to make a single change to my .emacs files. All of my plugins were compatible. It was completely painless.
