Re: What was the best FRC game POLL

The top five vote-getters* (2013, 2014, 2012, 2006, 2004) suggest that we enjoy:
  • shooting projectiles, and
  • hanging our robots from field elements.
I predict the 2016 game will feature both.

*These five account for ~82% of responses so far.

I believe in intuition and inspiration. Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited, whereas imagination embraces the entire world, stimulating progress, giving birth to evolution. It is, strictly speaking, a real factor in scientific research.

I agree.
One of the best games where strategy was important to the very end!
I do hope however we never get a game using the triangular shape.

Re: What was the best FRC game POLL

Hopping on the bandwagon here.

Like Edwin I value games with a large strategical depth first and foremost. With secondly the intensity while watching.

For me 2014 was that game. Incredibly deep strategical plays, and people were creating strong strategies and brand new plays even up to Einstein finals. So in keeping with the 1-10 scale.

1- Aerial Assist 9.5
2- Ultimate Ascent 9 - Deep strategical plays, very distinct types of robots. New combos
3- Rebound Rumble 7 - Some ball starving techniques and an epic conclusion to matches.
4- Logomotion 6 - Minibots were cool, but were more predictable. Some interesting tube starvation.
5- Breakaway 5.5 - Ball starving and some limited defense. Zoned robots interesting. Rip dawgma penalties
6- Overdrive 4 - Interesting watching robots shoot massive balls. Understandable game. Tipping robots. Lots of bumping.
7- Recycle Rush 3.5 - Fun first 0.6 seconds of the match, match strategy very limited, auton too challenging.
8- Lunacy 1.5 - zzzzzz. Terrible livescoring, slow, supercells were kinda lame, lame auton. Interesting teamwork.

OCCRA and VEX have done similar style of games using balls and cylinders as scoring pieces, and the games were great to watch.

It's my favorite in my heart, but I always feel like I'm being biased because it was my first real game and my team had a good robot. When I try to be objective I put Aerial Assist higher.
