Re: Which type of offense is better?

There are bots that can do both and I think those are a lot more effective than the ones that are stuck in a single routine.

Ours was most effective 'ramp-camping' because we didn't have to spend more than a second or two aiming (turret was manually aimed). On the ground though we could shoot from a variety of places after using a little more time to aim.

Not to say we were the most deadly shooter but it fixed the problem of: "Oh what if the ramp-camper is blocked off the ramp?"
