Alternatively, you could probably chew through the entirety of its more traditional North African campaign, with time left over to dabble in the Italian campaign afterwards.<\/p>\n<p>The latter was one of the weaker elements of Company of Heroes 3 on launch, as PCG&#8217;s online editor Fraser Brown explained in his<a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/company-of-heroes-3-review\/\"> review<\/a>, referring to it as &#8220;a bit of a dud&#8221;. But the free weekend lands hot on the heels of a massive<a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/store.steampowered.com\/news\/app\/1677280\/view\/507321174540159680?l=english\" target=\"_blank\"> 2.0 anniversary update<\/a> which makes &#8220;considerable changes&#8221; to the experience.<\/p>\n<p>The patch reworks most of the Italian campaign&#8217;s companies to emphasise their specialist roles on the map, increases the variety of playable skirmishes with both new and existing maps adjusted to facilitate larger battles, and makes a wide array of adjustments to units costs, abilities, and recruitment times to improve the balance and pacing of the whole endeavour.<\/p>\n<p>The 2.0 update also makes extensive adjustments elsewhere, introducing an array of maps that include returning favourites like Angoville, brand new maps like Crossing in the Woods, and community-made battlefields such as Djebel Pass. There&#8217;s a long list of tweaks to CoH 3&#8217;s multiplayer, affecting everything from broader faction behaviours to the traits of specific units and structures. And of course, there&#8217;s a bucketful of bug fixes too.<\/p>\n<p>The changes seem to have gone down well with the game&#8217;s community. Recent Steam reviews have notched up a &#8216;Mostly Positive&#8217; rating, with reviewers saying Relic has &#8220;turned it around&#8221; with the game having &#8220;evolved into a worthy followup&#8221; to Company of Heroes 2. &#8220;This was a complete dumpster fire at launch,&#8221; writes user HOW&#8217;DITGETBURND. &#8220;But it appears Relic have pulled off a miraculous recovery and fixed this with the 2.0 Update.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Hopefully this is the first sign of a revival in Relic&#8217;s fortunes, as the RTS specialist has<a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/gaming-industry\/relic-entertainment-lays-off-employees-to-give-itself-the-best-possible-chance-to-survive-in-an-increasingly-volatile-industry\/\"> endured a rough period<\/a> in the wake of Company of Heroes 3&#8217;s launch. This culminated in it parting ways with former owners SEGA and &#8220;returning to its roots as an independent creative studio&#8221;, albeit with the<a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/gaming-industry\/relic-entertainment-is-returning-to-its-roots-as-an-independent-creative-studio-but-its-also-owned-by-a-global-investment-firm-now\/\"> aid of an investment firm<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>In any case, Company of Heroes 3 is free until March 10.
