There's been a fair few matches that were balanced, but just as many with 'cheaters'. It happens. People from both sides chat and report them but that doesn't seem to do much good. It's less annoying when the 'cheater' is on your side. Less annoying but still unbalanced, which does take the fun out of it. In the same way as a one sided match, where a well organised, practiced and communicating group kicks a group of randoms into the dust. Either way it's interesting to see how blinkered players can get by iron sight aiming, battlefield awareness goes out the window for a lot of people.
On the good side, on an up note, I've taken a less assault attitude and embraced a back end support, support role. And it's made a difference. Lay down (mortar)smoke making the enemy shift position, makes a difference. Having my side pinned down in a bottleneck by a gun emplacement, mortars to the rescue. There's more to support than light machine guns and ammo crates. Back to basics removes the light machine guns, so it was well past time to fully embrace the support role and actually support my side tactically.
Supporting a group of randoms can be tough but I've been surprised at the teamwork that can evolve. Support is like the anchor, providing ammo, concealment and supporting fire. It's also satisfying to get a birds eye view of a group of players running in all directions from my last mortar blast as the next shell whistles in. Plus I got some decent rifle kills, but the pistol is still the fallback weapon.
