That just looks fake to me.

It is just fancy talk for "Capture a live Sectoid" which you did in the first game.

It wouldn't be the first game to inaccurately describe their own trophies/achievements or to exagerate them.

Why shouldn't I.

It's kinda spoilerish and people will probably complain. At the very least can you put in a spoiler tag?

Nah, that's not a spoiler.

This is a spoiler:

That probe one is obviously fake, but anyway having read the achievements list i wouldn't say that most of them are spoilers, it's mostly just stuff that you'll do in the regular game, and a few others that are easily possible in the first game.
But there are 2 or 3 that are possible spoilers but nothing earth shatteringly spoilerish.

They're nearly as bad as badgers. Build a couple of anti-buzzard SAM sites marksdwarf towers and your fortress will look like Baghdad in 2003 from all the aerial bolt spam. You waste a lot of ammo and everything is covered in unslightly exploded buzzard bits and broken bolts.

The image isn't working properly, and you probably shouldn't be posting it anyways.

Well screenshots are kinda spoilerish yet we are happy when we see one... Seeing an acheivement about capturing an alien in text... or seeing an alien in a containement unit in your base... what is more spoilerish....

Minecraft UI is very simple. There's only so many ways you can implement "simple" without copying something. We also gonna complain that it uses WASD?

And now I have to be that guy again. Why are you people doing this to me! :p
If you notice on the bottom right of the "achievment" images, there's a url, which links to one of those "achievement generator" sites where you can put in the image and text to make fake achievments.

Multiplayer.

why.........

Because it's nice to have more things?  It's not like they're going all Mass Effect on us and tying it in to the actual campaign.

I doubt I'll use it much, but it doesn't bother me that it's there. Lots of people would be asking for it if they didn't put it in. *shrug*
