Played the Main Campaign on Normal Difficulty 30% single player, and 70 % 3 person couch co-op.

Performance is problematic, game has moderate framedrops during explosions and airstrikes. For most of the game its very noticeable but bearable. However this is just our opinion, the co-op players opinions varied, some who were sensitive to framedrops refused to play it outright, while others were able to tolerate it.

After level 11, the games performance becomes worse, frame rate drops become very frequent and some sections feel like a slide show.
The last sections of the last level and the final boss fight feel really bad, as if the frame rate is constantly in single digits. It feels terrible to play, even in single player.

We got to the second phase of the very last boss, but the bad frame rates made it borderline unplayable. Keep in mind this is based on Normal difficulty, but the issue would be even more problematic on the higher difficulty levels.

Load screens are also relatively long and can take up to about 15 seconds.
