If I can find a suitable area to detonate a robot, i’ll post it.
Yes, its called tipping point v2 basically instead of stacking mobile goals on platforms you have to stack mobile platforms on goals, and then you have to balance on any 1 platform or else your points get descored. Also there are no rings but actual donuts and your robot has to enter a speed eating contest to get bonus points.
This made me smile too much
Who’s mouth are we mounting?
Or will it be ai powered
I feel like it’s going to be some kind of “capture the flag” kind of game that involves stacking elements, not sure how to explain it but I just feel like it might be something like that
Foam pieces also break a lot easier than the hard plastic, however, all game elements are designed like trash, so there is really no difference.
I don’t know which “next year’s game” topic to post this in so I just kinda went with this one.
I predict next season will primarily consist of 6”+ objects. I was informed that pre-orders are available for next season (along with Tipping Point varsity patches!) and well, we have a big game coming up.
The price for the full field of elements is $50 more than this season. The field elements are $90 more than change up’s, which had a considerable amount of parts around the field [can’t compare to TiP as you could not buy the platforms individually].
The super exciting part for me is that the game elements are $150, that’s 3 times Tipping Point, where 72 rings were $50. Next year’s game elements are worth 216 rings. A full set of Change Up balls were worth $136 which was 32 objects total. A higher price would either mean more objects at a smaller size, or fewer objects at a larger size. I don’t think we’ll have 200 objects on the field with the likelihood of more field elements, so I’m mentally chasing big objects again. Our last big object game was 16-17 Starstruck, with at least 3 medium sized games in between now and then.
I just did more digging, I don’t think the objects won’t be big big again. You can buy a pack of 2 elements for $7, a 71% increase from the 2 rings. @Xenon27 mentioned last year in speculation, getting 2 elements for one purchase means they’ll be a bit on the small side, or at least one will be small (reference Turning Point). It’s good to see that they will be bigger, and there will be a good number on the field, but the dream for big big objects might have to wait another season.
Regardless, I’m excited for how big this one looks to be. I know most of my posts are jumbled in words, this one especially, apologies, but I can’t help the word blabber when it comes to game predictions.
Random notes
Random notes: Cap+ball=$6. Cone+cone=$6. Single cube=$8. Single CU ball=$5.
I shouldn’t have tried analyzing it because I have ended up more lost than where I started.
I dont have an educated guess on the actual game but my team just wants a shooter game, like nbn style, we just wanna shoot balls man, spinning vex parts at speeds vex parts shouldn’t go is entertaining
After leaning basic vectors and kinematics in physics class I also just want to be able to apply what I have learned in robotics to a further extent, and for me balls that don’t have little dimples in them would be fun.
Friction and air resistance would not like you to be able to be able to apply what you learned in class.
However, they would like to peak your curiosity in learning more painfully complicated stuff in more classes that cost more money🤪
My gang would love this
The kids who are working on crossbows and insane compound gear ratios would probably actually work on a competition bot for once XD
But like can we all agree that tipping point was a great game. It had so many ways you could score or that made the game more open for creativity.
I want a game that has a flywheel before I graduate
Sorry to break it to you, but it will likely be something at least a bit more tame than a fire game.
For iq i’m guessin a drone game
I just hope there are more game pices so after goal rush teams dont just sit there waiting to stack
All right, I’m curious.
Game hopes?
- I’m hoping for a shooting game this year.
- I’m hoping for something else.
- I’m hoping it’ll be good.
