I played this morning at 7.30am and manage to get achievement. So far only clear the first mission to get the achievements. It seems hard mode is still manageable for someone like me who never even played the first Starcraft. But i'm a total noob when it comes to melee/ladder games. Need to read up alot and practice on that.

No, previous mission i completed was not given achievements. I reload back the auto savepoints of the first mission and played it till finish to get the achievements. have to replay back all the missions i completed tonight to get achievements. Lucky got auto save points.

Argghh... got poker game tonight. Gonna have to skip SC2 for tonight, maybe tomorrow wake up early to play then go to work late, haha. Try to complete more mission to get achievments.

To all those that have the collector's edition, i have question about the original SC and broodwar that comes in the 2GB Jim Raynor Dog-Tag Thumbdrive. Is it a playable SC1 and broodwar with valid CK-Key or is it just installer and require you to input ur existing CD-key which was bought back in 1998?

Still will like an actual CE owner verify this.

put 2 bunkers at each of your base entrance, surround the bunkers with supply depot. That will leave a very narrow path in and out. After you save the second batch of survivors with full team, go to the top Zerg base and destroy 2 hives. After that go back base. Gather 2 full army, leave some to defend right entrance, go out save third group of survivors and destroy the left zerg base. Remember to constantly set your barrack rally point to this place so that you can take it down. You must take this down before 1.30 minutes left in the countdown before mass Zerg appears.
