 After realising I've got 120.000 + 50.000 credits from Mobieus I just played the missions I've remembered to be the easiest and fastest on Casual. It's a bit of a grind but eventually I've got enough money. I've just completed all my upgrades as I'm writing this while netting a bunch of Tech Mastery Achievements in the process  | ||

Just something I've noticed - this bug only seems to work when you're replaying a mission you've already beaten. After I noticed this bug I also noticed that it doesn't seem to work when you complete a new mission. | ||

So just play the game and amass a good deal of the researches over 25 (I went for 20 for 200k credits) and just replay short missions on casual. I'm able to do liberation day in like 2 minutes and go to the lab and get 200k out of it. Of course you could always hold out for even more researches later in the game to make it even more profitable.

The extra research items do appear to work, so I'm going to spam that to get extra credits. Which level is best for more of those? People seem to be doing well with smash and grab. I'd also suggest doing the save/load trick after you build up a substantial sum. If there are upgrades you don't care about you can buy them and get the achievements and then load and pick the ones you reall want. | ||

And reloading a save where I'm still on the Hyperion doesn't work either... | ||

Like I said, when I was using it to buy upgrades I was getting about 200k (was actually 210K) credits after everytime I redid a mission and went back to the lab.

Thanks, I was thinking about doing the first Zeratul mission for 60k at a time, but it's like 20-30 minutes per run. Hooray, Blizzard, you managed to put farming into a RTS! | ||

If the bug is working for you you get 10,000 credits paid for every research items you've gained over 25 (ie when I did it I had 21 between protoss and zerg over their 25 limits and got 210,000 credits every time). If its not working you just get paid the standard 10,000 for the items you gained during that mission. | ||

Or any mission you want, aka Liberation Day on casual? Well I did it before I finished the campaign - so I was still on the ship. Pretty sure you would have to load though. If the glitch is working for you - any mission will do. I was doing liberation day on casual myself (only takes like 2 minutes to do if you just run straight through it ignoring the holo things). | ||

I just played liberation day or whatever it's called and it seems to work getting some research from it on casual. It takes about 2 minutes and It'll give me 3 points resulting in 30k. This is neat, but is there any way to do this faster? And what's with some of you saying you get 200k credits after replaying a mission? | ||

i play a new mission, where i got my 25 and got 2 left over. after the mission, i got 20k credits. i replay the same mission and an older mission (which had 3 and 4 research respectively). after the missions, i got 20k both times so if that trend continues, then it would be advantageous to avoid the lab if youre near 25 until youve gathered a decent amount of research over the limit. ex: youre at 24, you have 34. you get 100k extra on replays. or at least thats my current hypothesis from these two plays. edit: did a couple more on casual, still 20k. so it seems what this does is just gives you the same amount for whatever your latest mission gave you (in research credits) | ||

Selected Liberation Day on Casual from the Archives. Hit Escape to quickly cut the cutscenes (fun pun ) and then just A-moved Raynor's squad to the top. Midway you get a little assistance and just A-move them to the top as well.Took about 2 minutes and 30 seconds per try. Went into the Laboratory, checked my Research Console and got paid 120.000 for the Zerg and 50.000 for the Protoss. A grand total of 170.000 credits for just over 3 minutes of grinding. Rinse and repeat untill I had all of the Armory Upgrades as well as all of the Mercenaries. | ||

Apparently I've must have been 17 research points over the limit as I'm getting paid 170.000 credits per Liberation Day on Casual attempt. | ||
