I like the 0% corruption win achieve idea. Even if it's easy. I mean, not all challenge achieves should be super hard, right?

Absolutely, definitely achievements need to span the range of challenge levels. It's not as interesting to have a bunch of achievements that will likely be simultaneously earned anyway, though (overlap).

I feel it could be interesting, but would rather have actual feedback on the experience first.

In any case, the initial achievement list is done for now. We have 255 and any new ones will have to be added beyond Beta 6. But this thread can continue to serve its purpose as a repository of ideas.

No matching achievement for (somehow) going entirely without utilities? :P

Posted on Reddit before, but just posting here for the record.

The Great Loot Hoarder: Carry 50 items or more in your inventory. At first, I wanted to shoot for 100, but that's just really crazy and probably impossible.  ;D

Achievement Master: Earn 20 achievements in one run. (If that's impossible, then you'll have to reset your whole achievement progress) :P

DDarkray O_O. Thought this was the bad ideas thread for a moment!

There are definitely some additional interesting ideas growing in here that we'll see eventually. Keep at it :)

That's indeed a better name.

Is it too late to propose other names for existing achievements?
On discord zxc proposed
Quote
What Is This Thing?
Discover the use of Self-destruct Interrupters.
missed opportunity to use How Do You Turn This On?
And I wanted to propose They dug too greedily and too deep for the achievement currently named Curiosity killed the cat

I don't want to do a bunch of renaming of existing achievements except where there's possibly an issue with the current one. Like I've already decided that "Adventurous" will be renamed for Beta 7 because it's too close to "Adventurer," and these two aren't even referring to related achievements. I was thinking about "What Is This Thing?" as well, but no plans yet.

AOE2 is a legendary game though and it would be a sick reference :)

I suggest an achievement for destroying a large number of bots using guns only and without suffering any damage. (the idea is to have an offensive gun stack and to kill a lot of bots from long range)

Hm, don't know that reference.

Maybe would work, would require a lot of special detection.

Taste your own medicine!
Shoot a hunter through a wall.

Immunity? What immunity?
Terminally corrupt a Lightning.

Artificial sun
Melt a Quarantine Guard.

Actually I haven't done that last one, so I don't know how hard it is to melt him before he loses his core.  :P

Optimism
Equip a core expander with 26 slots
(I tried to do that expecting an achieve)

Preparation is key
Defeat DM's guards with the aid of traps

Look 'ma, no damage!
Access the data conduit and exit without taking any damage

Greenhouse effect
Cause widespread evacuation from Quarantine
(this may already be an achieve)

What were you expecting?
Hack GM and suffer the EMP
(this may already be an achieve)

Of course b_sen would suggest this :P. That would require making the mode a more "official" part of the game, but there's no context for that at this time...
