Re: 2015 Game
As we go back several years, even number years are spherical ball games while odd number years could be anything. 2015 has a lot of possibilities. I like the idea of having something that takes 2 or 3 bots to lift and move, but that really doesn't seem likely. Personally, I am scared to death at the day they make us handle a football shaped game piece. I just hope that isn't next year.

Re: 2015 Game
I wouldn't be surprised if it's a game where teams have to shoot something.

Re: 2015 Game
I just hope FIRST continues with the trend of spectator-friendly, exciting yet simple sport-like games. Also, not having an endgame, IMHO, really helped the flow and excitement of Aerial Assist (see my comment on the endgame thread for more detailed analysis). But mostly, I just hope they keep to the teamwork aspect of this game, especially the use of a single game piece. This year was, in my opinion, the single best spectator game in FIRST history, followed by last year; I hope FIRST recognizes this and continues the upward trend.

Re: 2015 Game
We could build the frame out of water balloons! The robot would be neutrally buoyant.

I really dont want another shooting game we have had them for the last three years and I have only been on my team during these years.

Overall, shooting allows great diversity in robots, allows many ways to play the game, and encourages defense to be played (something that isn't seen that often in FRC). Last edited by WillNess : 28-04-2014 at 21:19. Reason: To add more content |

Re: 2015 Game
This year's game was really really fun to play and watch since there was a real variety in every robot's design, as well as the strategy involved with controlling the zones, truss, defense etc. Personally, i would love to see either football or hockey make its first appearance, as well as the endgame being brought back. I think minibots deserve to come back for the very reason that it adds a whole new design portion to think about. Its another robot being deployed by your bigger robot and i just think that's insanely cool. What if the minibot had a much harder task for an endgame....maybe it isn't one with wheels and instead has to maybe fly and land somewhere :3 like a quad copter of sorts. I think FIRST has a real opportunity to come back next year with something totally new and exciting. Bringing back an endgame like that would introduce a plethora of new strategies and designs to think about

Re: 2015 Game
Also, on a side-note, I'd like to see some FIRST-Bots. Maybe some robots that moved around in a pattern and you had to collect the game-piece from your human player and try to score in the moving goal. It'd allow for some awesome defense play, and lots of variety in robot design.

Re: 2015 Game
I like the idea of large movable objects on the field like 2002 or something. Though hoarding would have to be discouraged

Re: 2015 Game
You are not alone in your wonderment, my friend. Alas, the inner workings if the GDC remain a mystery for all but a select few.

I hope it will be a glow in dark game. That would be so awesome!

Re: 2015 Game
Why does this thread already exist?
I thought last year's staring before Championships was pushing it. *Sigh* |

Re: 2015 Game
Does anyone know what gear we need to get for the underwater robot?
