SSOA is a very cool effect for shading.. very cool.. but even the developers at nVidia quote that it will cause a performance drop of 35% The level of "coolness" does not come close to justifying that level of performance hit when many people are at or just below the playability threshold right now. Right now I get 60fps in a particular mission I use to benchmark.. disabling SSOA gives me 102fps in that same mission..
