You had alot more going on in the pacific then you did anywhere else in the war. First you had the life and death struggle of the carrier fleets , the sub hunters , the island based defence forces , the long range bombing missions on cities , and the epic island invasions with tons of air support (iwo jima for example).
North africa would be easily the most boring campaign i can think of , BOB was already done to death in the first game and done rather well.
The only thing really missing was D-day missions of a massive scale and missions during kursk.

Agree with the other guys here. There's no hate for it just people pointing out that there are other areas of the game that could do with working on rather than dedicating it all to a pacific campaign.
As for your 'a lot more going on' comment. The war was already 2 years old when Pearl Harbour occured. There were already sub hunters out in the north Atlantic trying to prevent wolf packs from destroying britains supply lines. And as for saying North Africa would be boring I think is just ignorance. I'm sorry but to also say that 'the only things missing are d-day and kursk' again shows the same. There were many long range bomber attacks in Europe on a larger if not more 'exciting' than the ones in the pacific.
I'm all for a sequel which I think is the most important fact in all of this and truth be known we won't know what theatre it's likely to be until its actually announced. Anton only alluded to it including the pacific as well as the sequel itself so all of this is just speculative anyway.
