Difficulty, in this case, is different depending on who you ask. The old teams that have been in FIRST for a couple of years or more think more along the lines of "What can I do to win the game" or "We can make a great drive train for this!" In this game, some of the ideas these older teams have been working on would not work simply because the way the game was structured. So, for the older guys, this game is more difficult than the ones in the past.

However, if you are a rookie team, you think along the lines of "what can we do to be competative" or "what can we do to do a specific task?" This way of thinking opens up a lot of doors that the veteran teams don't see because they too busy thinking of ways to modify parts they have developed in the off season to fit this game.

I give a lot of credit to Dean and his staff of thinkers. They put together a game where the rookie teams would compeat at the same level as all the older guys. It was a bold step for them, to say the least, but a smart one.
