Company of Heroes 3- Rumors about the campaign

Hello there!

If You don’t mind, I will spread some rumors about Company of Heroes 3 which might come out in the future. A couple of months ago, I’ve received an email from Relic with request to complete a 5 minute survey. I usually ignore such letters and consider them as spam but this time I have managed to complete this quick 5 minute survey (it actually took me 30 minutes to complete it). Most of the questions were about what games do I like to play, how much I play Company of Heroes, why I like it or don’t like it and what I am expecting to see in new Company of Heroes 3.  But what really stuck in my mind was the question about where and when the next part of this franchise should be set. There were four choices given and I had to rate them from the best to the worst. As I can remember, there were such choices: Battle of France (1940), African Campaign (1940-1943), Battle of the Mediterranean (1940-1945) and Fall of Germany (1945). If it was an official survey then it seems that Relic got bored of cold climate and winters of Eastern Front (those winters seemed to be much colder in-game than in reality). It also seems like bad news to those who wants to see Company of Heroes based in Pacific. For me personally, it would be nice to see a campaign set in Africa and at the same time at Mediterranean (endless deserts might get boring).

In my opinion, since the moment when the development of Company of Heroes 3 will start, there will be no more new official content for Company of Heroes 2 (maybe only minor updates). In such case, maybe Relic will make Company of Heroes 2 much more friendly to modding just like Company of Heroes 1 is?

What do You think about it? Feel free to share Your opinion and ideas on this topic.

Have a nice day!
