Update November 7, 2019 This is one of those games that I don't really want to give a thumbs up or thumbs down review but I picked thumbs down and here why:
1. The game by default has your microphone on, with technology now almost every new computer now has a built in microphone so the game can and will eavesdrop. I know the microphone would be on by default before I even started playing the game so the first thing I did was go to the setting and turn mine off in the game so others wouldn't hear me and so I wouldn't hear anyone saying anything in the game too. It should be off by default and let you turn it on only at the start of each match or during a match, then it turns back off when each match ends.
2. Server issues. Perhaps that is why I am or was experiencing problems with my car not connecting with the ball when it was directly in front of the ball(I don't play the game anymore) Also check the video I added from previous review to see a serious server problem.
3. Reporting things in game. Yes I reported the server problem. I also reported some players who were treating everyone like crap in the text chat, they were probably saying stuff in voice chat but I had that muted as I said earlier so I wouldn't know about that. Unfortunately the game seems to have punished me instead of them because I suddenly kept getting in matches where the other cars 3-7 just stayed still, some typed some stuff to let me know they were there trying to throw the match or the others that kept asking to forfeit the match right when the game started or when the other team got one point
4. The people that play this game or the developers of this game, maybe both. See 3..
5. Removing Ghost Hunt. Why? A perfect event for October yet it was one week and done.
6. There is a basketball mode or was. How is a car suppose to hit the ball up and into a basket? I couldn't figure that out and no instructions in the game about that that I could find. The match I had went way into overtime because none of us could hit the ball in the basket! Awful! Adding a ramp where the car can go up and fall into the basket with the ball would improve the mode 100%.(suggestion) or being able to go up the back of the goal like a ramp then into the basket goal.
7. There was another mode where the ball hits the floor to score points but it just didn't work correctly because I would hit the ball and somehow give the other team points. (errors and bugs?)
8. Seems many don't know which side they are on and score goals on their own team. Easy fix is to add color indicators on each car, remind players before each match which color they are on and which color goal they need to hit the ball in. It also doesn't help that some cars can't change their color while if one changes the car color to not match either of the two colors teams, then that creates even more confusion on which team on and which goal to hit in.
I'd go on but then I'd probably have to get paid,get hired, or they'd have to pay or hire more for the implementation of all the suggestions and ideas the developers could and should do.

Those were some of the negatives for me while the positives are the vehicles instead of a person hitting the ball and going up the side of the walls is interesting but using the wall was 50/50 for me where it could help or hurt the team. Also interesting vehicle additions of the sponsors, other company connections, or whatever they called.

Yeah this is a popular multiplayer game but the few friends on here that played this game either stopped playing a couple years ago or unfriended. Perhaps this game is popular because they like the negatives I listed because they winning matches or just going for some award in game? For me, it not worth it, but if they fix the negatives I listed, I will play the game again and re review this but until then it was an interesting game and I tried out all modes of the game and got many achievements.

Update of this review on July 24, 2019: OK I have to now thumbs down this game because the Beach Ball Event is awful. My car is not connecting with the ball even when it is directly in front of the vehicle. The car seems to go through the ball and in replays is going to the left or right of the ball. (One reason I stopped playing) I see others doing the same thing, thinking they going to hit the ball yet completely missing it. The negatives far outweigh the positives of this game for me so I am not playing it anymore again. Perhaps if Ghost Hunt mode returns, I will return. I may update this review again with the positives and negatives like poor physics yet they have good sponsors or company connections like Ghostbusters but if the base game isn't fun for me, all the sponsors or company connections don't matter. Again, bring back Ghost Hunt mode and maybe add modes with all the other sponsors and company connections, then put it all in one mode that changes every hour or two, perhaps 24 hours, then the mode changes to a new themed mode like Ghost Hunt to a DC Comics theme mode or a Back to the Future theme mode...
Also here is another reason I gave this game a thumbs down, server problems:

Previous review:
I like the Ghostbusters stuff. Today the Ghost Hunt event ended and in my opinion, was the greatest mode for the game where everyone had equal chance to get the ball with the proton pack and then a 3 second chance to hit the ball out of the goal trap. The event that replaces it, Spike Rush, isn't as fun for me. This is basically one of the power ups available in the Rumble mode. Ghost Hunt changed the game and brought me back after a year or more of not playing this game. I don't want to thumbs up this game but I don't want to thumbs down it. To make a review I am forced to do one or the other so I thumbs up it for the Ghostbusters Ghost Hunt event that can't be played anymore and after the Radical Summer Event ends, I probably will stop playing the game again. After the event I will maybe update this review with positives and negatives of the game.
