First thing they need to do is clean up the netcode and balance lag compensation better. I'm not an expert or anything on that subject, but as a life long FPS player you can definitely tell when something is way off.
I don't want to discredit you and it's annoying when people say they've played for so many hours and haven't seen a cheater. Not all cheaters are completely blatant. If a decent player or even a very good player are cheating, they can mask it pretty well. Cheating is also a multi-million dollar industry, so people are supporting that and buying cheats. Just a sad fact. I totally believe there is a part of the player base cheating in BF2042, I just think it's incredibly hard, at least for the player, to tell if its cheating that's got out of hand or maybe just really bad netcode.
What's happening is on your screen you're not seeing the person peek until they kill you, which is sometimes called "peekers advantage". You're sitting there waiting for them to round a corner, when they finally do, you die in one tick update. What they saw is you just standing there, hesitating, start shooting you, and maybe you hit them back with a bullet or two. The other issue is that damage isn't getting updated correctly. They take some damage, but the server is cross checking it, they take only half the damage you visually saw because the server decided they won the gun fight, therefor you shouldn't have been able to inflict that damage after you died.
