Will it still work like it did in the first one? Post a save file right before completing an achievement and then share it so everyone can get it? Has anyone tried this again?

Why not get the achievement yourself? What is the reason of an achievement if its not yours? It removes all fun about it. I am sure you will have much more fun when you find creative ways yourself in order to beat a hard challenge other than letting someone else do it for you.

Who cares why he's doing it? He wants to get them this way then let him. Thousands of people did it in SC1. He probably just wants the picture.

To OP no idea. Haven't actually tried yet.

I get the achievements myself but there tends to be 1 or 2 that I just can't figure out how to do on brutal and such, rather than call me out why not answer the question or move on... and yeah I mean SC2: WoL, we shared the achievements which helped everyone who could not do them or were too lazy, but did they fix it in HOTS or can it still be done?

lol, this comment has nothing to do with what's going on here, he's asking for a way to do it, not your opinion.
It looks like you're just annoyed that other people can get the achievements.

@op have you tried sharing a mission with a friend and seeing if they get one of the easier achievements?

What do you mean? Do you mean that .SC2Save files won't work anymore?
Are you sure about that?

Yeah they did fix it. Luckily I got my Kerrigan Portrait right before that patch went live ^_^. However for HOTS I'm currently doing my first run and playing it on Brutal. To be honest the games more enjoyable. However some Bonus achievements are impossible to complete on Brutal, so I beat the level on Brutal and replay on casual to get the bonus levels.

What if I load the savegame file, save it again and then load the new save? Still won't get any achievement?

You can' t load save files not made with your account apparently. They probably just hash your account details in the save files to stop you from doing that.

Does anyone know how to get the level achievement without having to replay entirely? I missed 3 levels throughout the campaign, and upon retrieving them and replaying the final mission, I haven't gotten credit (it says I'm currently at level 46 o.o). Anyone?

@SiskosGoatee: I really don't think it's true. I've tried loading SC2Save someone posted on another forum and the save works for me. I was able to resume the game (EU account):
www.speedyshare.com/6nstn/Trying-savegame.SC2Save

Unfortunately I'm unable to verify if it'd get me the achievement as I've these completed already.
Can anyone please check if it works? This is for the following achievement:

****************************************
Brutal Legend
Don't take damage from the Archangel in the "Back in the Saddle" mission on Normal difficulty
****************************************

1) Will this save give you the achievement?
2) If not. try to load it, then SAVE IT AGAIN IMMEDIATELY, and load the new save.

Thanks!

Or... you know. Instead of cheating the system you could just try to get the achievement yourself? (thus it being an achievement?)

In the Leviathan, select archive. Replay mission on casual. Speed run and pick up the level. I'm currently playing on brutal, on one level I couldn't get the Level while beating it on Brutal. So i just replayed the mission through archive on casual and got the level.

FYI: Casual is so hilarious that they don't let you change rally points.

Alternately: use the Master Archives (found at the campaign selection menu before you load up a game). You get access to the evolution strains as if the mission you selected was done as late as possible - so even if you did the roach/hydra planet before the baneling/whatever planet, you'd have roach/hydra on a re-play of a baneling-planet mission.

Also in casual you can change hatchery rally points, you just have to use the waypoint hotkey rather than being able to right click somewhere.

No, Master Archives doesn't work (at least not the 4-5 ways I've tried it) so I guess it means going back through on Hard, getting mastery, and just getting the levels as a consequence. Oh well, was just looking to skirt that annoying method.

Hey, I think the answer is yes, it will work. I say this because I was half-way through the final map on brutal, but had to leave and wanted to finish on another computer. So, I emailed the save file to myself, finished the map on a different computer, and got the 20 brutal wins achievement when i beat it.
