If I recall correctly, yes. I think it's a sort of a movement penalty, the more you carry, the higher it gets.

Explore alien origins, invent the large craft, destroy Cydonia --> the end.



By the way this is for everyone else here... I play in DOS and i have this problem when i am trying to equip the soldiers my equipment keeps jumping arround. ehm how to explain this... first it's like the computer is processing and then it moves. ah yes some sort of lag. very annoying ebcause it takes me most of time to equip the squad. is this due to processor speed? because i never had this problem in X-COM.

I know the game is speeded up due to processor, but that doesnt' bother me as much as this particular lag issue.

The Heavy Weapon troopers should really be given incendiary rounds whenever possible, unless you're up against those irritating rock-like aliens (totally forgotten their names), in which case everyone should have 1 AP clip.
...Why are you going after downed craft before you get laser rifles?

why not?

you get new alien technology, you get weapons you can sell and earn money, you can get new aliens to research...

Because bullets do kill sectoids. Even the lowly pistol can put down a sectoid. As sectoids are the first aliens to conduct mischief, you may as well take them for all that you can get. Do avoid the large ships, though. Cyberdisks will be a problem, but mind control will be even worse.

The only reason to not go after any downed craft is that you might lose the transport.
