Re: Was Aerial Assist Better than Ultimate Ascent?
This year was a lot more interesting overall. Last year scouting was pretty easy as it was all point based, there were no 'other' factors. This year you have to consider defense, different autonomous programs and versatility.
As a spectator sport this was much better, as last year it was a bunch of frisbees flying with no one knowing who is winning. This year every shot count and crowd reactions were extremely noticeable. The crowd was stunned when the Cheesy Poofs swerved to avoid 1114's goalie arm this year.
I think robot design was a little bit easier this year, which isn't necessarily a bad thing. It just shifts the focus of the team more towards strategy and scouting, which are important aspects.
The main reason people hate this game is because it is a truly team-oriented game. You have to rely on your partners, and that doesn't suit people.
