After driving the past three days, I would say that the glass isn't that bad, I believe you can see the field just as well as years past, (not to say that it doesn't have a few scratches/marks though). What you really need to worry about is your approach to crossing defenses, whether its using a camera or lining up by eye (lining up by eye seems to be alright for crossing defenses except for when you have a portcullis, or drawbridge in your line of vision). Lining up by eye for shots in the high and low goals are going to be difficult for you unless you have a sure fire way of lining your robot up with the field, for example one of the edges of the batter. Lining up shots with a camera is a bit easier (if you have one).
