Are all missions necessary or one could skip some of them or there are mutually exclusive choices for certain missions?

I think some of the missions are mutually exclusive. The two I could think of now is the Tosh/Nova missions and the Save Haven/Burn Haven missions.

Okay finally finished it. Chickened on the last mission and tuned it down to Normal. Turns out the difficulty gap is huge, Normal was easy in comparison to Hard.

(I replayed it on Hard like 5 times, always get overrun when the Leviathan shows up. Goddamn thing is resistant to weaponry on Hard).

You should have done Shatter The Sky, since Nydus Worms are easier to manage since Perdition Turrets can take care of almost everything when fully upgraded.

Yeah I should. I regretted not upgrading my Vikings earlier. tongue.gif The +3 range would sure come in useful.

Gonna replay the whole thing in Hard once I finished my exams. laugh.gif

Does anyone else here think that Kerrigan is overpowered in Hard? WTF imba is her insta-kill vehicles skill.

On Normal, she dies before even reaching my base. (or rather, the core defense of my base, so no chance of using that on me)

But on hard, she literally can blast her way through like 4 bunkers (full), 5 siege tanks, and still have half her life left. Fuuuuuu imba.

So basically Raynor de-powers Kerrigan so we can spend the next SC2 Zerg expansion campaign levelling her back up sleep.gif

What I thought as well. This is way too obvious. Only question is whether Kerrigan becomes good (very likely), or remains the "queen b***h of the universe".

Not saving Haven is a better choice, sounds way more interesting than saving Haven.

I can't wait to go back and not save Haven this time.
*
Frankly, its not that you don't save Haven. You just burn out the Zerg infestation. You still get to save civilians from being infested in this mission.

I find Haven's Fall an easier mission compared to the Protoss ones, since Vikings pretty much owns any airborne unit the Zerg put out. (And surprisingly, not many Hydralisks around).

You get 26/26 if you do only one side of the campaign. You can actually go back and do the other choice if you wish. (With all your goodies that you bought. brows.gif )

Yep, they also do much more damage.
What I was saying about new units in enemies is in addition to doing crazy more damage than your units.

They're also more damage resistant I believe. Damn cheaters... tongue.gif

You can play back any mission using the mission archives. Even the ones which you didn't choose.

Q about playing back old missions.

Example: you either choose safe haven or haven's fall (that girl doctor who has the hots for raynor). i chose safe haven, and got the 3/3 zerg research. then i replay haven's fall, but even after competing, i don't get the 3/3 protoss research. design or bug?

cos for example i first play mission X, but only get 1/3 zerg research, i can re-play it at casual and get 3/3 zerg research and I will get the extra 2 research points.
*
Design. After all, you are supposed to choose one. laugh.gif

For the secret mission, it seems you cannot access is anymore if you landed on Char already in your current campaign.
To play it you got 2 choices:

- Load a save where you were before the Media Blitz mission or during it (Media Blitz = the mission where you unlock secret mission)
- Redo a whole campaign.

As for doing a new campaign, you restart without any leftover tech/upgrades you had in your other save, it's like when you just installed the game
*
Actually, you can also reload the campaign any time before Char. I did this and managed to get the secret mission.

He probably did the Heart of the Beast mission instead. Dayem, that mission is one the best in the campaign. Lil' Betty. ROFL.

i agree that the choices function in the game was awesome...
still, would've been more awesome if it got some sort of impact to the future storyline like mass effect though...
*
Well, Blizzard isn't Bioware, so I doubt any of the Mass Effect "storyline branching" stuff will make it to the next expansion.
