It's not about being a member of VeryGames staff or anything. My paycheck won't change whether we sell tick 128 servers or 64 (or anything else, really). Plus I'm not talking here on behalf of the company I work for, but as a CS lover, that has player both 1.6 and source for a few years, and want to help this game being on the right track. If you do not agree with what I think that's fine, but at least use worthy arguments.
Other suggestion : on Source, there was the exact same bug with tick 100 servers. Problem was fixed by the zBlock team and their plugin. Maybe Valve could/should ask J3Di (which is now working for them if I'm not mistaken ? Or will ?) how they fixed it, and add it directly in the game. Both tick 64 and 128 work, everyone is happy. Anyway, my personal feeling is that both tickrates should be available. What is lacking here is simply a fix for the doors physics on tick 128, and ideally a clear documentation on the Source Engine netcode, for both people with technical knowledge, and people without it.
