Re: Ultimate Ascent - Most Difficult Ever? Too difficult?

This is my 5th year apart of F.I.R.S.T 4th as a mentor and I would say this game is hard to an extent. Ultimate Accent has mechanics designed into the game that no one in first has ever seen or can look at other examples in previous games. The last two games most teams could accomplish everything. For example 2012 Bridge balancing could be done if you had just a capable drive-train. The end game currently requires a lot of thought and F.I.R.S.T is now making you make trade offs or think of the game in an entirely different way than the usual. As far as resources and time spent it is pretty heavy this season the question is how many teams can rise to the occasion and figure out how to play this game effectively to the fullest. I know my team is working though the weeks and are learning all the time. I think this is what FRC is about and is why I am still apart of it.
