For the participants, it will be challenging and fun as it always is when you are competing. In the grand scheme of broadening the appeal of FRC, this game is a step backwards from 2010 "soccer" and a huge disappointment.

You hit the nail right on the head. I think the game will be exciting and fun to watch for the millions of people on an FRC team. However, the scoring is relatively complex, and makes no sense to someone who isnt in FIRST.
Personally, I love the game, it mixes up 2007 enough for it to be completely different (the biggest change imo is no defense) but it won't be fun to watch for spectators.
