I really like Scout if you're on a good team. You basically use it to go whipping through a capture point. because you know that you will draw off a whole bunch of defenders, and you always leave that one poor guys who will stay to defend while screaming for his wingmen to get back. Then you have your strike fighters come screaming into the now lightly defended point while a guy in the gunship snipes away happily.
If you have a good team with good tactics it doesn't just break down into a bunch of one on one dogfights.
I had the total Top gun moment where I was in a strike fighter with another buddy flying on my wing. And I was waiting patiently for him to kill this fighter, but frankly he sucks. So I look at my radar and see another enemy fighter nearby, send a quick message to my wingman that basically said "You're looking great", and I peeled off to go after a kill of my own.
Not more then two seconds later my former wing man gets vapped. The guy I'm chasing basically pulls an immelmen and goes heads on guns with me and cleans my clock.
Its actually a really fun addon, I can't wait for more content.
BTW they have a neat life day event starting today where you can hit people with snowballs and get rewards for it that allow you to get a free Santa sleigh as your speeder.
