Can We Sort the Balancing?
Like the title says, this game is horrifically unbalanced when it comes to teams. 90% of the time, and that is not an exaggeration, I'm being lumped into a team that barely knows how to function. The...

@Ironhead841 Except this wasn't nearly as bad an issue in previous titles. In this game it is utterly atrocious teamplay, and basically, one team has a collective IQ lower than my ping. I would legitimately prefer to have bots on my team, because they would at least do more than sit back and toss grenades.
As one who's been a moderator since BF3 I can with certainty say that everything you say was also complained about on the Battlelog forums, here on AHQ, and even on the post Battlelog Battlefield forums. People always complained about team balancing, team mates not reviving (and simultaneously complaining about rambo reviving them into insta death for points) and spawn traps, in fact these complaints became even more vehement during BF1 and BFV time frames but at least during those times we could team switch to assist with the problem.
Just a reminder after reading the entire thread, debate the OP's topic and keep personal back and forth out of the discussion or the thread will be locked.
I have played 12 games today. I have not won a single one. We are trounced by hundreds of tickets every single time. That last match? Enemy team won by 800 tickets. My team just doesn't try. It makes no effort at all. Zip. They won't attack, they won't defend, they won't use anti-vehicle weapons, they won't use vehicles, they won't revive, or resupply, or repair. When you ask them to do something, they just troll you. I don't understand this. Each match, the teams are mixed up, yet I am constantly saddled with this same calibre of uncaring, trolling player, whilst the enemy team plays for keeps. Its utterly infuriating.
I'm in a vehicle and within moments its personally attacked by five players, three running at me with C5, others firing Lis rockets. Enemy tanks are just chilling in the flags unopposed. Like, who is even playing in the game here? Why are they even in an objective based mode? What is the purpose of playing a game with a clearly defined way of winning, and you just don't bother?
Hmm, I thought adding classes would bring back the teamwork?!? /s
I had to literally SCREAM at that team to do something. They were leading by a few hundred tickets and then just gave up for 80% of the match and camped between the flags. We won by 120 in the end, but it was tainted by this constant having to force them to do something about it. My tank gets instantly obliterated by every player with explosives in a ten mile radius because my team won't support it and kill one enemy, who respawns their squad, who all have explosives. I have to get multikilled by some low rank bullet sponge, and they have a cheater who makes mincemeat of my helicopter five seconds into using it, then instantly snipes me from the parachute with the miniguns in a heartbeat.
Even when you win, it sucks. The experience just sucks ALL the time.
