Yeah it's a shame, the higher level I have got the more I've noticed bullshit happening that makes me wonder if people are indeed cheating and the more I see battles where half the players are snipers. I also feel the faction missions are a badly implemented idea, they give the biggest rewards and if you want to level up in Faction at a reasonable pace you gotta focus on them. I find myself aiming to get missions done first rather than actually focusing on my team and winning, stupid shit like getting melee kills, grenade kills, accuracy etc, where I could usually win a fight I find myself losing it because I am focusing on what the missions want me to do to level up my Faction rank.
I've also got bored of the AKM because tbh Assault Rifles don't seem to be balanced very well, they are of course more powerful than SMGs, but the recoil is immense and they fire slower, combined with the shit ironsights they have I seem to do much better with an SMG overall. Now you'd think okay well they are better at slightly longer ranges than SMG and yeah generally they are, but because the recoil so bad even at longer ranges I can shoot full auto with SMGs and own people at the same ranges where I have to fire slowly and control my recoil with an AKM, better off using a rifle for longer range engagements. Feels like they need to balance the weapon types more because after using the AKM for a while it feels like there is only a very small gap for them to be useful on the battlefield somewhere inbetween SMGs and Rifles.
