E3 2016: Watch the EA Play Livestream here
It starts at 1 p.m. PDT / 4 p.m. EDT
Electronic Arts decided to bail on E3 this year in favor of its own EA Play event. If you aren't one of the lucky ones in the area and with a ticket to attend in Los Angeles (or London) this afternoon, the good news is that you will be able to see it right here when it begins at 1 p.m. PDT / 4 p.m. EDT.
We are expecting more news on Titanfall 2, Battlefield 1, Mass Effect: Andromeda, and more, so stay tuned. We'll be watching too and bring you the news as it happens in case you can't watch.

looks like they are running a little late...
-
I'm pretty stoked to see some youtubers like Xfactor play Battlefield 1.
-
yah looking forward to BF1! gimmie!
-
-
Been looking forward to this. I need to see BF1
-
I hope they're playing on PC, just giving people like Snoop Dogg a controller and still letting guys like Xfactor go ham with M+KB.
Though it would probably put people on a more level playing field if everybody was forced to use a controller. Even so, I hope they would still have everybody on PC's with 1080's in SLI so we can see how pretty the game can be.-
Sadly I bet it will be on console or at least with a controller.. :/

"Please clap"

Nobody cares about madden....
-
I do!
-
It sucks. Bring back NCAA.
-
-
-
Lol all the players on stage hardly anyone claps.. Haha

It was an amazing story... until they completely fucked it up.
-
Some good art and a nice look at the engine. That close up of a Asari looked pretty cool. I would have liked to have seen a gameplay trailer, though. But they are probably in crunch time trying to get it out.
-
-
Cringe is high so far
-
http://www.giantbomb.com/chat/ fixes this issue.
-
-
-
Oh hell yeah Jose, cringe forgiven.
-
-
DONT CAREEEEEEEEE
-
Wondering if we'll see other EA games during Microsoft or Sony's presentations. This seems really really weak.
-
yah nothing surprising here really.. more of the same from EA
-
-
Bethesda save us today please!
-
when is theirs?
-
I think 10pm est

Yay BF1 the only thing so far I give a shit about.
-
EA: "We're working on Star Wars. Deal with it."
Wish they showed more what's coming up. But definitely interested in what Respawn and Visceral are doing.
Thought that glance at X-Wing fling in VR was a surprise.-
VR reboot of Tie Fighter bring it to me.
-
And a vr headset.
-
-
I guess no battle is ever the same
-
-
Oh shiz, that last half of the trailer looked awesome.
-
Yeah that looked fucking amazing.
-
-
-
Great trailer!
-

-
Take a bite out of COD Infinity Wardfare
-
Yeah that's my assumption they're trying to outright crush it.
-
-
Are they done or is the stream down? Just died for me when they cut to London.
-
Still going on the youtube stream
-
-
-
yeah that was not good.
-
Yeah, I had to mute it.
How long have they been doing this stuff? 10 years now? You think they'd have a tighter production and better presenters.-
This is painful
-
-
-
For a game coming out in March of 2017, I really expected to see a lot more of Mass Effect: Andromeda. I thought we'd see equal amounts of that and Titanfall 2.
-
I give zero shits about celebrities I just want to see decent gameplay.
-
yah it's gonna be amateur hour in this gameplay footage..
-
Yeah it is. I was hoping they'd just go with a couple teams of actually good players.
-
-
-
Seriously - who wants to watch all these newbs play this game? wtf
-
lol... Snoop Dogg really.
-
[deleted]
-
-
Lol this stream holy fuck
-
I just thought of one way to make this stream better, just sitting here on my couch:
Ask some of these celebrities about one of their favorite Battlefield moments (I'm assuming they've all played one of the previous games). At least they'd have something to say. Instead of "yeah uh, I don't know anything about this game and I'll be pretty bad"-
It's so painful i love it
-
-
-
Flashbacks to the 360 reveal. Holy fuck.
-
-
Was coming here to post this, I love the guy even more now.
-
-
PC from the looks of it.

-
-
Oooh! I see mice and keyboards!
-
Well at least it looks like they are playing on PCs... I bet every one of them are using 360/XB1 controllers.
-
-
haha yah i helped a co-worker build an awesome gaming rig last year... he grew up on consoles so he of course used a Xbox 360 gamepad. Tried to get him to use keyboard & mouse but he claimed he was better with the controller.
Sure you are now but mouse is soo superior, just takes a little practice.

ahahaha, xfactor keeps checking the scoreboard, what a nerd

Holy shit it's gorgeous

His secret weapon has been deployed.

Fun fact: Cordozar Broadus Jr (AKA Snoop Dogg) back in 2007 was part of some research into long term marijuana usage.
Scientists found that he had smoked so much marijuana in his life that delta 9 tetrahydrocannabinol(THC) made up over 40% of his blood, and that all the xrays they performed had a bizarre green tint on the films.
-
-
This looks incredible.
-
-
This game is starting to sound like the next level. Dynamic weather, the airships can crash anywhere on the battlefield and totally change the landscape.
-
Looks like the most destruction possibly ever in a battlefield game.
-
-
They switch so fast it's hard to really get a good look at gameplay. Also show me planes assholes.
-
Is the streaming quality bad or is it just my Xbox 360?
-
-
Wait, it's fully controlable? Are you sure? I get the distinct impression that it's more like a set piece with a few mannable guns. It crashed in exact the same location during the EA Play trailer and the first match all the celebs were playing.
The crash looks very, very much like their Levelution thing to me.-
Crashed in a different spot in the second round.
-
Yeah, that doesn't mean there's a pilot, though. Could follow a set path and still crash dynamically depending on where / when it is shot down. Definitely didn't seem like a static thing to me
It would probably be pretty boring to control one, they move so slow. Plus it would open up the floodgates to griefers taking it clear off the map like the carriers in 1942.-
Honestly they never really stuck on anything long enough to tell. Plus I wanted to see more airplanes.
-
Maybe it can be restricted to a boundary within the map?
I'm just worried about there being only one airship and giving one team an unfair advantage. -
It is pilotable as stated by the commentators, it just doesn't pilot very well and you have to plan ahead.
-
-
-
-
-
-
Have to agree
-
-
yah map bounds seemed pretty tight too... seemed smaller than some of the BF4 64 player maps.
-
-
Looked like there were a starting point on the edge of the map.
-
-
-
-
-
The rain looks good.
-
Looks fuckin fun, see you on the Battlefield.
-
-
Yeah I really hoping for a solid SP campaign
Love the frostbite engine.-
Same man, I just don't have time for MP so I hope every year that the SP will own.
Man It be epic if they really put a lot of effort this time in the SP I really hope so.
I would die for a open world BF SP game with full advancement/progression , gear , all that good stuff , and a solid story.
-
-
-
-
The only non-shooter I've played on it is Need for Speed Rivals, and it did look a little too much like BF4 lighting-wise. That was an early one though, they may have improved things since then.
-
-
And it runs so good on PC's, especially compared to some other engines. The Core2Quad machine I played the Battlefront beta on had no business playing that game, but it did, and quite well on high settings.
-
-
Yeah, if you're running ultra settings on anything less than a high end card, you're gonna hit some framerate issues.
It still looks great on medium settings though, or you can use the resolution scaling option and run it at 900p like the PS4.-
-
1440p monitor?
-
-
-
-
Yeah, probably.
I tried cranking everything up and it still looked pretty bad and blurry for how it poorly it ran, though. Single digit FPS on high, and lucky to get ~30 on the lowest settings. Like I said, could have been the beta. Seemed like an unoptimized mess to me, with some real bad texture streaming and pop-in on top of it all.-
How much VRAM? The only reports I've seen of people getting performance that bad is with 2GB and less cards
-
-
Yeah, on hyper settings at 1440p I think it uses the entire frame buffer of the GTX 1080.
You can use the VRAM usage limiter in game, but I've seen complaints about it.
-
-
-
Yeah, probably for the high settings preset on a 1920x1080 monitor. The extra on the left and right for 21:9 is significant
-

Totally they are amazing, Frostbite is one of my fav game engines with out doubt, the biggest thing is it runs really really well/fast on the PC with insane visual and features.
That is one thing that most don't realize how difficult it really all is in a game engine development. It is one thing to have a engine to be able to produce beautiful visuals, which is a tough/complicated task on its own. But its a whole other thing to have your game engine run at a very high visual output/target and have it all running efficiently, fast and also takes advantage of certain hardware like multi core CPUs , leverage/consume your GPU etc properly, etc. Its all really insane if you stop to breath and think about it.
In short game engine development is really fucking hard, I love all the guys that do it and the Dice crew specifically own at their craft I would love to meet them one day.

Holy shit the verge posted such a horrible clickbait article about EA and them being "tone-deaf about Orlando". Like, wow. That is next level pathetic.
I'm more upset they threw up an article like this so quick right after a long-planned conference than I am about anything EA did or did not say. I wear they probably had the damn thing written before the conference even started.
Throw on your ad blocker. http://www.theverge.com/2016/6/12/11914658/electronic-arts-e3-press-conference-gun-violence
Also lol
