I've thought the same thing. From what I know FIRST has never tried stairs. As far as I know the closest to stairs I've ever seen was the puck from 98. That in my oppinion was the best FIRST ever had to offer. The game was complex and there were SOOO many ways people could win and score. I want to see that same complexity again. Everybody had a chance and everybody seemed to have something REALLY REALLY cool to show. Now all i see is really low robots. They all look the same to me. They all do the same thing. It's just about as bad as the 2001 competion of 4vs0.
And I definatly do think they're going to try something where the action can be seen up high. I really do agree with the guy above that balls are definatly out. AT LEAST the small ones. They did them for what... 3 years in a row!!! 2000 you had to put them in a a troth, 2001 you put them in a skinny goal, 2002 you put them in a REALLY big goal. I want to see the return of a similar floppy type item. That or something really cool like having to pick the balls out of the air or something.
This year's game seems to have many low robots and rookies seem to do very well by just having a drive going. It's boring. I want to see diversity among robots, not just the same design over and over and over.
