I suppose this will be another chance to introduce huge, sweeping changes that has thousands of questions in regards to customer investment by which they will absolutely not answer a single thing.
I am guessing Valkyrie will be the main thing talked about. There will be some EVE stuff like "we are making it more accessible, easier to understand, without making the game easier" (that was their buzz all this FanFest), maybe some Project Legion, but probably nothing about DUST. Hell, maybe even by the time it is, E3 Legion is just DUST 514 at which time they will want to impress the gaming press by saying "We have learned a lot from our mistakes; we have got some really impressive things to show you" which they won't realize is like telling your 8 year old son that you hope not to screw up as horrifically with the next kid.

Legion could be a self-fulfilling prophecy.
"Put it out in front of them, see if they like it," he said. "EVR [later renamed Eve: Valkyrie] was a perfect example of that. Legion will or will not be an example of that, weGÇÖll see, and if Legion does well, great, weGÇÖll continue to invest in it. If it doesnGÇÖt, weGÇÖll open up some beers, have some fun and say, "'Ok, that was fun, letGÇÖs do something different now and go again.'"
So Legion is announced in the worst way possible short of CCP Rouge breaking into your house, crapping on your floor, and 'finger-painting' with it on the walls "Project Legion." With the terrible announcement and "what happens to my SP, items, character name?" being the three obvious questions that weren't answered until the next day despite having 3 broadcasted events about "DUST 514" (all of which turned out to be about Project Legion), the reaction has been vastly negative.
"We decided to stop working on Project Legion. It is clear that our community doesn't want it." Sadly, this is the worst news ever. "We can't do what we wanted on the PS3. The ONLY way DUST is going to be what we promised it to be is to remake it on the PC." Right there, DUST is dead. Them cancelling Legion doesn't change the fact that Legion being brought on stage during a DUST 514 presentation was the bullet to the head of DUST. Even if they say "Legion isn't happening", DUST 514 still has a hallow-point slug in its head. And all CCP has to say is "the community just didn't want it bad enough."
