Radar plane radar jamming?

Does anyone else find that the amount of radar jamming / cloaking that is now available is making big games very unappealing to play?

The combination of cloaking + arty and strong defenses, makes it very hard to counter arty + porc + cloak pushes. The standard counter to this is to use raiders - which die to porc. Assuault - which dies to porc... which leaves only arty or cloaking. So now you have both teams with only cloaked and porced arty. Which is basically how all big games end up these days.

Just feels very pointless to make assault as it just dies as soon as you attack. Then you have fed the enemy and lose to more and more porc.

It just means that teams normally must escalate to strider class assaults and super weapons.

I agree but I don't blame cloaking for this, I blame the power balance between assault units, porc and artillery. Assault units don't feel that strong, artillery feels very strong.
