All my points are from Respawn developers. And the big paragraph in the OP is DIRECT FROM THE RESPAWN WEBSITE. WHERE IT SAYS AND CONFIRMS EVERYTHING.

1. It is not clear PC will use Azure or MS Cloud... it will use Dedicated Servers... if they are the MS Azure or not is not official yet... and the AI Bots won't be processed in the Azure/MS Cloud it will be in your PC, Xbone or 360.

2. There is no campaing... there is a Multiplaye Story mode.

3. There are AI Bots.

1. "Microsoft has a cloud service called Azure (it’s a real thing – you can go on their website right now and pay for servers and use them to run whatever you want). Microsoft realized that they could use that technology to solve our problem.

So they built this powerful system to let us create all sorts of tasks that they will run for us, and it can scale up and down automatically as players come and go. We can upload new programs for them to run and they handle the deployment for us. And they’ll host our game servers for other platforms, too! Titanfall uses the Xbox Live Cloud to run dedicated servers for PC, Xbox One, and Xbox 360.

But it’s not just for dedicated servers – Microsoft thought about our problem in a bigger way. Developers aren’t going to just want dedicated servers – they’ll have all kinds of features that need a server to do some kind of work to make games better. Look at Forza 5, which studies your driving style in order to create custom AI that behaves like you do. That’s totally different from what Titanfall uses it for, and it’s really cool! So it’s not accurate to say that the Xbox Live Cloud is simply a system for running dedicated servers – it can do a lot more than that."

EXTREMELY CLEAR

2. "When you first start the game you will play campaign multiplayer, which takes the bits and pieces you're used to having in single-player, like a story and characters, and big moments that contextualise what you're doing - we're putting that into multiplayer."

" Presumably, there's vanilla multiplayer to complement the multiplayer-only campaign, though hold fire on taking that as Gospel till we hear more."

EXTREMELY CLEAR

3. That means you call Ellie a bot? Or The arbiteur in Halo singleplayer? The NPC's playing with you in the campaign are set. Cannot ever be changed. Its a proper story. Not some bots you select at a screen.

 

selnor the FUD Destroyer making a triumphant return lol

but hey, ethomaz knows more about the game than the developers so cut him some slack.
