I've been having fun with the new companies, and actually I have seen more Infantry oriented companies due to Axis infantry getting some pretty good buffs (my only minor gripe is flame assault grens with mp44s and flamers), but other than that it made me switch off from the usual Tank Reapers to be more focused on AI US Infantry company, and against a dedicated AI Axis company, it gets pretty nasty; but I'm liking the change and am learning to adapt.
So what if I don't have AP bazookas or the awesome TR ATGs? I have allies to take care of that and working with a team while I deal with some things that will really mess up other allied companies, like a 7+ squad of falls with AI weapon upgrades and the like. I really think you should test the waters again, and really it's only about avoiding certain players to play extremely gimmicky companies (no offense Panda, but I'll never play against your 9+ sniper company, lol).
Just my 2 cents!

A game that, in order to have fun, you don't play, you read a book instead. Brilliant!
Bull. Any sort of infantry heavy company will instantly get owned by a Calliope, Strafing Run, Typhoon Rocket Strike, Croc spam, FOO, Cannister Shot, Suppression Fire, etc. (notice how all of the are instant-win buttons, and require absolutely no skill)
Light Vehicle spam get torn apart by the Allie's ever-growing arsenal of bullshit, and dodge bonuses are no longer enough.
Armor spam seems most viable, but is hardly effective vs HVAP, Tank Reapers, PIAT spam, etc, and requires too much micro for most anyone to pull off.
Exactly how it should be for what's basically a glorified jeep. Right now the things are mini Kangaroos that make up for their lack of health with dodge bonuses.
Any armor company had a field day against IA spam, but yeah, it was a huge problem.
Still, once you get marked as a spammer, it's pretty much impossible to come back.
CHALLENGE!?

new tactics get beat by new tactics which spawn new tactics to beat the new tactic which gets beat by the first tactic.
Tis the way of EIR! Either L2P or GTFO!

Dafuq man, don't ask for proof if you'll refuse it if it's not in your favor, logic fallacy for the bloody win.

It's actually pretty fun once you learn how to beat it along with proper teammates.
However, there are some that just cant accept a defeat....

This is just going to far with the amount of super gay spam companies you can make. It seems like all i fight are these type of setups and its getting a little old. I'm really at the point of just not playing anymore. Some people seem to have gotten it in their head that I spam a bunch of shit and I don't. So it seems like i'm getting greifed all the time. Sure i win some of these battles but it doesn't make the game any more fun to play. I just want to a normal match and not have to face billions of rifles back up with billions of assualt engineers, at guns, airborne armor super rape assualt flammers of doom with 10 marders, 300 million 50 mills and 100 million pgrens. It just isn't fun to play games like that.

No-skill unfun overpowered bullshit is
not
a 'tactic.' It's no-skill unfun overpowered bullshit.
Ever noticed how spamming is only 'fair' to the spammers?

No, I don't notice that, because a lot of people say they don't have a problem with spam, without spamming themselves. Myself included.
