i would like to see:
- jaguars with CAN enabled
- no more "mandatory" wheels
- return of the giant CIM/gen 2 gearboxes/more than 4 cims allowed- let battery life limit teams, not rules
- more durable game pieces- no 03 bins (i heard they broke all the time), no 97/07 pool rings (constantly getting popped), and definitely no 09 orbit balls that break when you breathe on them
- along with that, a flooring that is more durable- during traction/slip tests, we were powdering the fiberglass regolith)
- no more penalties for being good
- less restrictions on bumpers- this year's were a big pain...
- allowance of other, non MK batteries
- targets not mounted on opposing robots- the camera can only go so fast
- more emphasis on defense- like 06
- size classes like 07
- hybrid mode (minus the bad IR boards of doom)
- and a DS that doesn't die upon actual use
i think this would make a better game
i know some of you disagree, butthat why it's a forum, we can discussthis stuff
