no, the robots didn't look very similar to each other, especially in the
big
league (and especially the finalists, cs freiburg looked like boxes, while
golem looked like conical lunar landers (with cool looking wheels)).
That's right, they were quite different, although I think they conformed to
rules about dimensions which made them resemble each other in a loose sense.

if cs freiburg robots were cooperating, they certainly weren't showing it,
unless you mean that some were defenders while some were attackers, which
pretty much all teams had set up.
True, the Golem robots seemed to be much better at cooperating; forming
patterns around the ball or around the goal, that kind of thing.
