Re: High Goal Vs. Low Goal
For me, these are the pros and cons of low goal:
Pros: -Easy to build for -Pretty much guaranteed points if you can get past the defensive robot -Most mechanisms won't take up too much space on the robot(more room for lifter) -Weakens the Tower at same pace as high goal -Much less stressful design if you have limited resources Cons: -Have to get past the defensive robot -Not as cool as having something that shoots -3 points less per MADE shot |

Low goal shooting gets you to the eliminations but you lose when you get there.

Your quote is exactly why it is legal, and protected space, all you have to do is contact courtyard carpet to launch a ball. |

More realistically, very great cycle times will exist around 15-20 seconds. Quote:

I think that most people forget that there are 6 balls on the field at beginning of play and that there are always 6 balls on the field.

Re: High Goal Vs. Low Goal
To continue my thought process........ ::rtm::
I believe that FIRST has designed a game with the potential for high scoring. And they heard people say they wanted robot interaction along with defense. But they developed a game with limited defense with harsh penalties associated with where you play defense. The updates continue to make defense even more difficult. In years past they had games where a rookie team with limited resources would end up being a defensive bot (that potential is still there obviously) but those same bots can be very active helping to weaken the defenses. And those same bots can be involved in the end game this year. So, theoretically a team with limited resources can be very involved with power ranking points. (RP points) The low hanging fruit is very inviting and everyone can be a major contributor on scoring. |
Re: High Goal Vs. Low Goal
Its fairly simple:
High Goal can if done right INCREASE POINTS and DECREASE CYCLE TIMES and DEFENSIVE ISSUES. Low goal is POTENTIALLY EASIER and MORE RELIABLE but INCREASES CYCLE TIMES and INVITES DEFENSIVE ISSUES Now in Weeks 1 and 2 I feel a good low goal bot could make the Elims and even be on winning alliance.... however in Worlds they will not have much impact. |
