Yeah...this cleared things up...anyways, here's my opinion on things.
1. The only the way the PC version would be "gimped" not using the cloud would be if they gimped it on purpose. Actually, I haven't seen anyone else mention this but how could they NEED the cloud for all of this stuff if they thought it was coming to the PS4 too?

The Dev thought the game was coming to the PS4 right up until EA said it wasn't. On top of that even EA said that the subsequent games in the series will be multiplat. How is that possible without "the cloud"?
I suspect that MS has had more than a little bit to do with all of the devs talk about the cloud. It sounds like BS to be honest.
2. This actually seems pretty straight forward. I can't imagine it will be very in-depth, but I'm interested to see how it comes out.
3. Lets get this out of the way, the AI in TF are meant to be fodder for the players to kill. Call them what you want, but they are bots. Weak bots, but bots just the same. They are used in different and interesting ways, but the AI themselves are by definition bots.
Bet with Adamblaziken:
I bet that on launch the Nintendo Switch will have no built in in-game voice chat. He bets that it will. The winner gets six months of avatar control over the other user.
