So we went to cheap mode? Another cost-cutting move? I have never seen a 20Hz server/instance until today. I was wondering why the time nudge was more than my ping and everything was playing laggy. What the hell is this DICE?
On the 4th:
Today:
Look at the TN and STR. What is going on? This is absolutely unplayable and hard to test weapons in slow motion.
Found a reddit video showing the difference between 45Hz and 20Hz servers. It's brutal.
It's so bad at 20hz that the minimap looks like a slideshow and is no longer smooth. It hurts the eyes to look at it. Fortunately I don't spend much time in single player/co-op. But, I feel really bad for people who do use it often.
solo Breakthrough mode is running terrible because of the 20hz change. I would just add breakthrough to my portal modes so I can utilise the 40hz but there is no option for it please consider going back to what it was before you changed it Thank you.
@mickey921 I think if anyone pre-orders the next game they need their head looking at
Since they changed the hz in Aow Solo Co-op from 40 to 20, I quit that mode and I'm only playing in my personal Portal Server. Unfortunately Aow Solo Co-op mode is the only one for who likes to play against bots that allows you to play with a bots squad.
At this point I'd ask for having Breakthrough mode in Portal and the option to set "mixed squad allowed" on "Yes" without any restrictions as well. Maybe that would be a nice addition.
Oh yeah, i did noticed something is off in my SOLO/COOP matches, but I presumed something is wrong on my end. So that is why ...
Wouldn't it be more cost effective if I would host on my device when playing solo vs bots, instead of mini renting a server on EA end. What gives maaaan.

Honestly, at 20hz they've basically decided to shut it down and get all the solo/coop'ers moved over to the Portal platform instead. They are well aware that you can't really play at 20hz, so I believe there's a method to their madness here.
Have you seen this post from yesterday, regarding Breakthrough on Portal?:
