Hey guys,
I was hoping that someone could clarify how to get all 29 missions. I HAVE read the other threads, but am still confused... can you please confirm whether this is the proper technique?
1. There is a secret level in the Media Blitz level if you destroy the science vessel.
2. There are 3 places where you get to make a choice during the story line. Each time, you will play 1 of 2 different missions depending on your choice. Each time you make the choice, play the newly unlocked mission (and finish all of the achievements for it)... then reload your game to before you made that choice and select the other choice.
If #2 is correct, can you please tell me the three levels I have to replay, or the 3 cinematics I have to rewatch?
Thanks a ton for your help!!!

i'm breaking my lurking spree to post this, but if you want to play both missions whenever you have to chose between one of the two (i.e. tosh/nova):
1. make your pick based on how you want the storyline to go
2. finish your mission
3. go to your bridge, click on the console thing in the background
4. the other choice will be an option to play
edit: also secret mission is unlocked by killing the civilian science facility in the south east of media blitz

Oh yeah? No reload required? Cool - thanks!
One other quick follow-up if you don't mind... I hear people talking about playing through without spending credits. Why would they do that? Is there an achievement associated with doing that?
|
someone would probably need to confirm this, but i don't think you get enough credits to purchase all the separate upgrades in 1 go of the campaign (infantry, vehicle, etc. ) which you do get an achievement for. So presumably, they just wait till the last missions and buy out each tree with reload/save and get achievement.
Personally, I only bought the orbital command and mech upgrades and i'll try it out when i'm less lazy.

complete the game and finished off the last 3 missions from the mission archive, which totals to 29 missions. I've done this but why isn't Kerri's portrait unlocked??

When you click on the achievement, are all of the missions highlighted?

When I reload my allinvictory save I am prompted with the mission archive screen. Currently I have done 25 of the missions, and would like to complete the other 4. Ive beaten the 3 regular ones from choosing who to side with, but it still says 25/26. Also, replaying the Blitz level from this mission archive doesnt seem to unlock the secret level. I tried loading a previous auto save from Media Blitz to unlock the secret level. I then beat the secret level but how do I get that save file to work with the save file where Ive beaten the campaign? Do i have to move the save game file to a different folder or something?
What am I doing wrong? Thanks
edit: seems like its not saving the missions I've gone back and done through my allinvictory save in the mission archive. Still says unplayed for Belly of the Beast, etc...

and be connected to battle.net
I had to redo a number of missions because I got disc'd.

I completed the game on hard and now want to go through it on brutal. If i click continue campaign and it takes me to that mission archive screen and I pick to do the missions on brutal instead of starting a new game, will it count to my Kerrigan portrait?

I'm pretty sure it does. If you want to check then just do the first mission and look on the achievement progress.

You can get credits by replaying missions and handing in research without advancing in the story.
Not sure how it works because i seem to get a lot more payouts than researches that i find

You have to complete all mission objectives, even the secondary ones, in order for the mission to be considered "completed" for the achievement.

I have done almost all the missions, but I didn't complete the final zeratul mission before going to char. Will loading up a save be alright to count as completing it, or will it appear in the mission archives after I have completed the final mission?

once you finish 26 missions and you beat the storyline, then you can go back and do the other 3 choice missions for full 29 ( its easier that way too because you have more upgrades and stuff ) ;P

You can always check which ones you need to do by going to your achievement box and seeing which one you are missing.

1. Yes
2. You don't need to reload. After you complete one of those "make a choice" missions, the alternate mission should just appear in your mission archives where you can do them from there. At least that's how it worked for me. So just look through your mission archives and find the ones you haven't done.

Why did i just read about this after i reloaded and did a few missions :p
Nice information in this thread though, thanks!

I'm having difficulty understanding how the save/load/new campaign/hard,brutal,etc. options are working with each other in this game.
I started the campaign on hard to play through the story, then go back and pick up the 3 choice missions. I also am making sure to complete every and all main and bonus objectives, but will go back later to get achievements I forgot.
But after I played about 8 levels, my cousin got on my computer and started a new campaign, also on hard, and played through the first 6 missions not getting all of the objectives in each levels.
Then I got back home and decided to start the campaign over on Brutal, still aiming to get every main and bonus objective, so I remade a new campaign... Now I am through the first 7 levels or so on Brutal.
So anyway... I'm not finding an easy way to distinguish between our campaigns or levels we have separately beaten on the same difficulty, and finding out which objectives were done for which level on whose campaign. I can tell which levels are my Brutal campaign, because in the load screen it also displays the difficulty.
I just want an easy way to distinguish between our campaigns because we are both going for all 29 missions. What is the missions archives thing some of you are talking about? Do you not just click "Load" to continue the previous campaign??
