tl:dr -> Excellent game for FPS and RTS fans; huge amounts of teamwork and customisation; playing with friends makes it even better.
Performance
Players who bring up Performance mostly praise it.
21 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The best FPS+RTS mix so far imho, when you take a (little) bit of time to get really into it, it's just sooo much fun. :)
Multiplayer
Players who bring up Multiplayer mostly praise it.
20 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
It is a Valve Multiplayer- Hl2 Modification, with awesome graphics and vehicles!
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
16 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
You can see in the screenshots that you can customise vehicles in many ways, different weapons, different armour types, different engines, even down to how much armour you put on specific parts of your vehicle, and even a weight system limiting what you put on the vehicle, allowing for interesting tactical gameplay elements.
Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
9 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Very fun game, has a short, but fairly hard learning curve, and then almost infinite potential for improvement.
Co-op
Players who bring up Co-op mostly praise it.
8 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Fun game if you can get a group of friends together its good.
