I find this game very entertaining and fun to play and there is no limit to what you can play in this. There are casual game modes if you just want a feel for the game and competitive game modes in which you can challenge yourself and others to be the best player possible. The extra modes are very entertaining and fun to play but the rank system on that makes it feel more competitive than fun. The only problems I have playing this game are the ranking system, where you are always playing with bad players in your rank and I think it should be based on mechanical skill and ability rather than wins in placement as you could be really good but have a bad day and lose the majority of your games. Another problem I have is the physics of the game. The arenas are set to normal gravity in online games, but if a metal ball is flying in the air for ages and not coming down, is that really normal gravity? Thirdly, and many of my friends have this problem as well, is creativity. Over the past couple of months, the game is becoming repetitive and not enough creativity is shown in the game. I must admit however, that the new Heatseeker mode that came out was quite fun and enjoyable. I have watched many map creators and new game modes being made by regular people are only available to PC players and I hope that Psyonix add these kind of games and maps in for console as I find them really cool and really want to play them. I think just a bit more creativity will attract more players. My final problem is in-game purchases. Ever since the December update came with the removal of crates and keys and the addition of blueprints and credits, I feel like Psyonix want more money. With the removal of the DLC cars and the addition of a daily-changing shop with items which are set for a fixed price and are made untradeable. I feel like they are begging for money and really makes t harder to get nice-looking cosmetics for your car as you have to pay to 'open a blueprint' instead of getting a key and opening a crate with a chance of a black market. I feel like that you pay more for the same thing now than previously and it makes the game a bit more disappointing.

But overall I find this game very enjoyable and would to see a couple of improvements made to make this game better than it already is.
