Re: New Game Criticism
Overall I don't really like this game. It is growing on my as I put more thought into it but, I'm just not a fan.
Likes:
1) Bumps, they're pretty awesome seeing as we've had flat fields for the last 2 years.
2) Multiple Scoring Opportunities, it's nice to finally have another game where there's more than one major scoring method.
3) Soccer Balls, and their availability. Anyone, Anywhere, on the Planet can find a Size Five Soccer Ball.
Dislikes:
1) Restrictive Size Rules, I don't like how restrictive the size rules are this year. I'd really like to see a robot allowed to expand out to it's maximum size at anytime during the game.
2) Steepness of the Bumps, I really foresee at least one match where all 6 machines have tipped by the 60 second mark. (I both Like and Dislike the Bumps)
3) Restrictive Ball interaction rules, FIRST is basically telling us that we HAVE to "Kick" the ball.
4) Lack of Autonomous Bonus, I think this may discourage autonomous play.
That's my two cents for now.
