In my current deathworld marathon game, started shortly after 2.1 came out, biters gave me hell, expansion was rampant and since I was going for several achievements I had a very rough time.
However, in the meantime, they seem to be almost inexistent, damage counter for many turrets in my perimeter is 0.
I read about the changes for biter expansion in the most recent patch, but I don't think this is how it's supposed to be.

Has anyone experienced something similar or is my current game just off?

Could you upload a save game for us to check?

Sure, I also included an older save from the same game where biters were still running rampant.

Did you ever have the opportunity to take a look at it? Or is this something that has likely been fixed by a more recent patch?

Sorry, we've been having our vacations

I just checked your saves, and it all seems normal, the bases are just nor absorbing that much pollution in the calm save compared with before:

Wild:
Calm:
But it looks like they might be waking up now that you've increased the production on Nauvis
