I imagine they rolled up with a dump-truck of money to make this happen (and help promote Scorpio), but EA's conference would have been just that much better if they did it themselves. Maybe it's a good thing? Perhaps tomorrow there will be more time to show things than there would have been at EA Play? That's if I'm being very optimistic about what Gamble calls 'lots more'.

Something I think is worth pointing out:
EA has emphasized story in all of their games today. They've added story modes to their sports games after the success of "The Journey" mode built with Bioware's Frostbite tools (Did the Journey have dialogue choice? I don't know). They corrected the error of not including a single player story in Battlefront.
So I'm not too perturbed by EA's insistence on calling it an action game and emphasis on the live service, it seems they understand the importance of story and it would frankly be bizarre if the Bioware title of all things were to skimp on single player story given their emphasis on it.

Maybe they don't do it because more people tune in to see Microsoft stuff? I mean, EA has never been good with the whole E3 presentation stuff, their conferences haven't really been 'talk of the town' in past years from what I've seen - even now this stuff I now watch is... guhhh, show something more interesting already.

Do you guys think ANTHEM is an abbreviation for something? Technology? The base station? The planetoid we are on? Yeah, I suspect it's an acronym. I guess we will see tomorrow.

@midnight tea Could it be also. It also creates anticipation. We old farts were expecting info on this new BioWare IP, general public had no idea.
So money, exposure and momentum.

People expect some sort of post-apocalyptic battle and exploration stuff, while in reality we'll be playing a time and resource management game where we sew mech suits for ants. "Gotta sew all those hems! Double hem for you! What, you're back in the line again? But I just ran out of yellow thread! Uh, the earlier customer is starting to get antsy, gah!"

It is a bit disappointing though that EA is demoing their brand-spankin' New IP... at MS's keynote. I imagine they rolled up with a dump-truck of money to make this happen (and help promote Scorpio), but EA's conference would have been just that much better if they did it themselves. Maybe they don't do it because more people tune in to see Microsoft stuff? I mean, EA has never been good with the whole E3 presentation stuff, their conferences haven't really been 'talk of the town' in past years from what I've seen - even now this stuff I now watch is... guhhh, show something more interesting already. EA doesn't have the presence that MS & Sony has, true. But it's not like you have to cut them out... EA could have demoed the game at their keynote, and allowed MS to demo a different part of the game at theirs. It would still get people to tune in, and make EA's presentation all the stronger. It's not as though EA is putting out new AAA IP every day. But EA was obviously okay with selling exclusive demo rights to MS. As @nappinhappycat pointed out, it would be interesting to know what kind of money that takes...

In all seriousness though, the gameplay reveal will be a major determining factor if the game will truly capture my attention.

Might be able to determine classes or roles in that pic. Sure looks like 4 people co up with different classes and all kinds of upgrades for your suit. Also looks like grinding and microtransactions. Almost looks like a ringworld station (like the presidium) in that picture. Probably the camera, but could be cool.

Which already seperates it from Destiny in one aspect atleast.
