OMG, cold war becomes hot war

So if you don't own the US and you're playing as the Soviets, you could potentially be teamed up with the US and playing on a Western Front map.

Where are you getting those numbers from? I would wager you just pulled them out of thin air. I would probably say that 90% of German Biased players like this patch. I am sure that's closer to the truth than 90% of ALL players.

We checked the numbers on Pioneers after some concern was brought forward and they are working as intended. Maxims and the M3 used at range handle the pioneers extremely well. Try putting a shock squad in the M3 for additional close range damage. If you use conscripts, spread your units out and kite the pioneers or block their advance with molotovs. If you are kiting, try to kite left to right as opposed to backwards, as this will enable you to fire on the move.
