I completed the 8th challenge today, but still can't figure out how to claim a gun. I got that blue thing, but Idk how to cash it in.

I don't mean that the factions themselves are unbalanced (in some places they are, but that's not what I am talking about here), I am talking about individual matches. I can't remember the last time I had a match that was close I played at least 10 matches today and every single one was a stomp. And before people come here saying GeT gUD!!!! I find myself on both the stomping and getting stomped end of things. The image above is just an extreme example of the games I find myself in.

The 10 matches I played today were from a wide range of BRs and factions since I usually play with the "join any army" button on. However, most were the Japanese (which I have at Br III) due to the Japanese just happening to be the army I get selected to play the most often. Whether I get stomped or I stomp the enemy it's not really fun, and makes it a slog.

How could this be solved?

To be honest I have no clue. From what I hear, Enlisted has to low of a player base to introduce skill based matchmaking, which is what I would have suggested, so my other suggestion would be that if a side loses to many objectives to fast then they get a few extra AI squads to help secure objectives. Wouldn't really do much since the AI is so shit in this game but it's better than nothing ig.

Is this really a big issue?

IMO yes, I have tried to bring multiple friends into the game, but not one has stuck it out. About half quit due to the shitty AI (fair enough), while the other half get stomped so thoroughly that they just move on to the countless other WW2 FPS games out there. I think that the degree of unbalance in this game is legitimately hurting its lifespan, and is forcing new players to quit. Not to mention it just sucks balls to not find good matches.

I genuinely wouldn't mind struggling in a long-drawn out match for 30 minutes if the match actually ended pretty close, but when I struggle for 10 minutes in a match where I feel I can't do anything then it just makes me want to quit.

I play with the "any nation" check on, so I don't really care what nation I get the flame tank for, but I want to have at least one, so which one is currently the best deal right now?
