Not sure if that's it, but I just finished The Utter Darkness on brutal with about 3000 kills and on summary screen there was information 'Kills to the next achievement: 226' or something ... I can't understand why would anyone do achievements on brutal. Its hard enough without trying any achievements which you can do all the way on Hard.
I had to restart the campaign entirely to do Brutal 25, since it bugs out if you change difficulties mid-campaign.
When I did In Utter Darkness, I made it to 3350+ kills on Brutal without trying particularly hard.
Once you figure out the missions, at least for some of them, they get really really easy compared to the first time you did them. I lost 7 units total on Haven's Fall brutal, when I couldn't even complete it the first time I played through.

Really hope we'll find the answer soon. This is so annoying!!

I had a dream that I unlocked the 1600th points by beating the campaign on brutal without spending any money or unlocking any research upgrades through the armory\laboratory consoles. Anyone want to give that a shot?
|
Blizzard staff are just laughing somewhere watching people try to find this 'secret" achievement. It is probably a bug or a tease.
I really would not suggest beating the entire game on brutal sans upgrades nor would I suggest trying any other crazy idea people can think of it.
People could just start positing suggestions in here to torture you poor souls.

Maybe, during the course of a single campaign, you have to beat every mission on every difficulty 
|
If you play on the Brutal campaign, the first time you play a mission through the Mission Log on any other difficulty than Brutal, your campaign is permanently taken off brutal difficulty. When you launch new missions through the Star Map, you'll be on a difficulty other than Brutal, and if you want your Brutal 25 achievement you will have to re-play every campaign mission on brutal after playing it on the difficulty the game is now launching missions under. Annoying :X I'm not even sure you will get the Brutal 25 achievement for doing the Brutal missions through the Mission Log. Basically, you have to play on Brutal only if you want to beat the campaign on Brutal without having to use the Mission Log to replay missions.

You can change the difficulty of the mission before you start it, if you restart it in-game, and if you play it from the mission logs. I have no idea how you came to that conclusion.

I'm pretty sure this is false, however I have thought about doing it and I'm gonna try it for the challenge. Will report back when I succeed.

Nope. I've gotten 1,3 million and got borred and suicided. Deffo nothing on 1 million.

im guessin its the lost viking one too or beat the terratron in the lost viking pr beating campaign under 8 hrs?
|
I wonder if there is a way to look at the game files to see the achievements. I think they can do that for wow, but I also dont know much about computers.

Well the Brutal 25 achievement is flaky at best. If you start the campaign on a lower difficulty, beat it, then go back and do brutal missions from the archives you wont' get any contributions toward the brutal 25 achievement. That much is fact. So there's something going on, the above conclusion doesn't seem that much of a stretch.

It wouldn't surprise me if the secret achievement is upgrading to Heart of the Swarm. I can actually see this happening.
|
What levels are there easter eggs on? Maybe finding all of them gives achieve?
|
The thing is we dont even know what achievement is that last 10 pts. Maybe they just wanted to make it a nice, round, even hundred..... none of this 90 stuff.

Blizzard's just fucking with us.

Probably, but its still erks me!

After looking through all the game data very thoroughly in the editor, I have seen no achievements which could possibly be this missing 10 points. This is probably, as many have already suggested, just a bug.

So I'm at work and bored and I manually added it up and it only totals 1590. So either it's a mistake or there's a hidden achievement.
Ohhh shit, watch out, Captain Obvious is here doing his thing!!!
