Hopefully the GDC will keep that in mind for future game design.
i totally agree..
real time scoring was down at our regional.. and not knowing what the score was till we were off the field and back in our pits kinda took away the excitement.. i remember just staring up at the screen waiting for the score and i was in the way of another team tryna get there robot to the field haha

but i liked the aggressiveness and fast paced action this years game provided..
it showed me that you dont need an offensive robot to win. esp since we have human players involved.
