2021 - 2022 VEX Robotics Competition - Tipping Point

[VexTeamZ]

@VexTeamZ

Yeah. These last 2 games have just had one robot that everyone builds. I want one with a little variety, multiple ways to score. Also, an endgame, like the park in TP sounds fun.

@9MotorGang

hope it has an endgame task and involves climbing.

@Xenon27

all I know is that I really hope the game is more of a challenge than lifting a super light sphere 18" off the ground, because change up is probably the easiest game since maybe even elevation.

@RoboCatz

Also, it would be fun to have an endgame element like the balancing bridges in 2012 FRC & Crossover. Especially if its point value could make/break matches (like the center platform in TP)

@9MotorGang

Me mentro always talks about how he would like a game with movable objects

@Xenon27

would just like to have at least 2 game peices. change up and tower takeover both only had one game piece, imo 2 or more different peices makes for much more variety and interesting robots.

I also hope that it’s some kind of stacking/lifting game, since I haven’t had to opportunity to build a competitive lift, since the last game where big lifts were the best competitive option was itz and I was not good at building back then.

@VexTeamZ

Odd shaped elements

@Gameoa

Just give us a very thinly veiled ITZ copy

@RandomKidOnAVexTeam

Personally, I’d love to see the auton line removed.

@9MotorGang

I am really hoping for some diversity, multiple game objects/differ goals

@germany

Definitely something with an endgame for sure. Haven’t had one for two years, games are getting boring and it’s obvious that the robot designs are becoming more and more similar every year. Tbh I want a game where there is more than one thing to do that isn’t an endgame, while also having an endgame (like TP). I would actually love to see a game that has two primary scoring options and an endgame. TP didn’t really have this because shooter robots were so much easier to build and it was faster to score points that way, but I would like to see something where there are two options to be able to easily build something competetive to score in a way that is very similar to the other option.

@SOTRobotics

Another thing that would be cool, is to have an EDR game where there is a leveling bridge, similar to the concept of IQ’s Crossover

@VexTeamZ

just really want an EDR version of Ringmaster. That would make me so happy. So

@9MotorGang

am pretty sure that next year’s game will have a yellow game object. We haven’t had anything yellow in the past two years, and we have had the other 5 main colors.

@929VEli

hope for foam game elements that weigh more than typical foam or plastic elements because the game elements for next seaso

Well, I guess we got what we asked for.
