As a huge Half life fan I already checked that one out. Sadly in it's current state it's more like a waiting simulator since a game rarely works as intended. But overall I like it.

Same. Game is alright, but some stuff is really stiff and units move weird.

And?

For the umpteenth time, in 2v2 random with a Soviet teammate who declared they were going for Guards into T34-85s and built Tier 1 with no AT, did I lose.
I am so sick of players in 2v2 going for Tier 1 and getting no reliable AT.
They don't cap points because snipers are expensive and they don't build many infantry, then they think Guards are going to hold back quick Flak HT or Luchs...
And they don't, they can't beat infantry and they can't beat vehicles, they ARE NOT A REPLACEMENT FOR THE ZIS.

Every game it is the same, they build 2 cons a M3 and a sniper and proceed to do minimal damage to either Volk swarm or Gren swarm.
Then they panic when quick Luch or Flak HT comes out and spam the attack here pointer and cry to me for help .
If we manage to hold on and they get Guards out, then P4 or Panther plus Volk/Ober blob or LMG Gren blob rapes their shitty Guards and they complain to me about how I am a noob.

2v2 Soviet players STOP BUILDING TIER 1! It stinks, it is expensive, doesn't give you good blob control(Maxim) or AT(Zis) and most of you suck at controlling the M3 and snipers and lose them to Volk/Gren blob. The meta has changed, Tier 1 is no longer a very viable stall until T34/85 call-ins. BUILD TIER 2 FOR SOVIETS!
I guarantee your play will improve and your teammate will hate you slightly less.

Maybe so, but he will have more rifles then you do grens most of the time.
And grens will only win with LMG's.

And the problem with Gren LMGs is that it makes them static and blobs are so mobile that the range advantage of the LMG is good for only a few seconds and then the BARs start overwhelming it. Plus explosives are too strong now and 4 men static Gren squads get wiped frequently.

It would be embarrassing for Relic if the community had to mod their game to make it competitive or even flat out work properly years after it released. And then started tournaments(that Relic wanted to start)that actually attracted people to a balanced multiplayer.

It won't be a story of how one company's game grew a large modding community that improved upon a great product and attracted so many people that it grew into a competitive sport (like Starcraft). It would be about how one company was so slow and produced such lack luster game fixes that the community gave up on them and did it themselves.
