This has got to stop :)

Stone walls and well placed Sandbags + turret/colonist placement makes defending against wave after wave of tribal's rather easy.
Sure they will eventually (wave 15 or so, before repairing) start to deal damage to your base but until then....

Most of my games end with me just alt+f4'ing right out.
Mainly becouse i got corpses all over the place and the constant tribe zerg galore just gets tedious and boring. Since they ALWAYS overrun you. No amount of turrets will save you from their rocks and bows.
Not to mention my computer starts to lag super hard when they spawn and when they are moving. Thats when they arrive with 70+ guys.
Throw in a limiter or give them more hp/armor not just a zerg.

You know you can slow down the onslaught, don't build or build very few turrets. Personally I don't use them, never found a need.

Slow down and limit is completely different. Just slowing down how many they send wont help much since they will still hit those insane laggy numbers later on. And it's game over.

Well for me the game doesn't lag very much when there are a lot of enemies. But of course, that doesn't mean it isn't a problem. How about just reducing the AI complexity for each enemy when there are too many of them? Instead of just putting an absolute limit on AI computations (that would result in some pawns just standing there), just reduce the need for enemies to "think" a lot or somehow cache or recycle needs/movements so that, for example, the need to take cover isn't calculated per enemy; it's instead calculated per group of enemies so that all of the enemies automatically take cover instead of individually having to determine who has to take cover when all of them are going to anyway.

YES TYNAN MUST ADD THIS!

I believe the change log (https://docs.google.com/document/d/1_rCdGYp3nbSUXFG4Ky96RZW1cJGt9g_6ANZZPOHyNsg/pub) already states that the pathing is getting an update, there are tons of optimizations getting ready for shipping and general performance improvements are about to get released as well.

Sit tight the 80+raider lag should be reduced to being a 80+ raiders general annoyance.

FINALLY I CAN PLAY THE GAME ON A NET-BOOK WITH BETTER FPS!

Now all you need to do is release the capslock and remove it from your keyboard.
