The current portal experience does not really support 64 players. The server tick rate is too low and the server resources are too poor which causes high server frame time and lag.
I remember reading they were discussing CC as well as Solo and Casual REDSEC (more bots than Initiation I assume)
Reading where exactly, it certainly wasn't here on their official forum. I never see them post anything anywhere except carefully worded release blurbs on X regarding small hot-fix type issues. Please link us to the conversation if you can still find it.
Sorry, I tried a quick search but it didn't yield any results, probably a Twitter or Reddit reply. My memory is terrible on specifics but can give you my word it was said somewhere - Of course, there were no guarantees that any of it will happen, just that feedback on the subject is has definitely been brought to their attention.
