goldfries & alexwlh: Thanks for the suggestion dude! But I got a different approach with the "Speed Too!" achievement. All i did is spam marines, marines and more marines. At the same time, spam vikings to deal with those pesky mutas and broodlords.

I managed to complete the achievement around 23mins. The "One shot kills 50" is really easy as what goldfries have mentioned earlier.

Now i am struggling to get the achievement for the last mission. Any tips on how to hold the fort? tongue.gif

watch the video on All in - Brutal - no Nova in youtube, very very impressive, basically you need speed of controlling everything, kill every single nydus worms(choose the air mission) very fast b4 they eject anything dangerous, and make flame tower everywhere near nova to lure queen to cast spell there instead of your tanks =). saw that video and seriously you can use that in hard without a problem(ppl did it in brutal, so hard should be easier, and even so you can use the nova once to get the achievement).

"speed too" is quite easy with ghosts, i did with all ghost with their upgrades(perma hidden and no need energy +2 range and +3 spot). also you need scanner, scan the base b4 you go in, so if there are ultra/brood lords, you need to be very careful about them(only them are dangerous). With enough ghost nothing else(beside those 2) able to damage your ghost, when ultra comes, either kill it fast or kill the detector fast, press r and click on the bull fast and repeat, 45 damage per snipe and with normal attack, it should be dead b4 reaching your ghost, and for brood lords, you must snipe them fast, they have heavy armor but snipe ignore armor, few shots can kill 1, with good timing/scan/snipe/enough ghosts/avoid the boss, you can take all bases out without losing a ghost.

Yes air unit is easy for normal, but when i try brutal then it was crazy, they come from all direction and hardly defend (i use the cloaked ghost keep sniper broodlord like how people do in youtube but i barely survive until last wave at 99.7% recharge and overrun by them) So i restart and take out air unit and try again, using siege tank defend + banshee kill nydus worm and manage to win in 1 try. rclxms.gif Finally completed all brutal..

I found 2 brutal mission is super insane for me where i so frustrated retrying:
1) Engine Of Destruction - So hard to protect stupid Odin drove by damn Tycus, can you just wait a while before you continue push? I hope i can use my SVC to stop you moving, hmm maybe you guy can try build building block him from moving to enemy base?
2) All In - Crazy Kerrigan + Air Unit
*
lucky i got BC for that mission, i simply go BC and destroy any big threats b4 he moves in, and scv repairing it while it attacking isnt a good idea, always being destroyed, so i had science vessels following and repairing it, only use scv when it stopped moving. I think banshee should do the trick too, you dont have to destroy everything b4 it, just destroy those who able to damage it hard, like siege tanks, and maybe some factories/barracks that non-stop producing, siege tanks are too slow, and ya you need to worry about enemy BC, as the Odin takes too long to destroy it while others are attacking odin.

me got 3

SV doesnt repair, it heals, so it require energy, scv repair need resource, repair is faster, but if you use repair in the middle of a fight, very high chance they are dead b4 u can pull them back. few SV cause 1 SV cant non-stop healing, they need to regen their energy, so few of them will ensure there are enough energy plus, they also healing each other incase something attack them(quite rare cause most units cant attack air). i only use scv repair when it stopped attacking.

Well said. Both SV and SCV have pros and cons. I only start repairing Odin using SCVs at the second last base which has lots of Air Units. At other points SVs should be sufficient. I'm only playing Hard Mode though.

Can someone guide me on getting the achievement for completing "Media Blitz" in less than 20 minutes ?
*
what units you can use ? the media blitz isnt that difficult. b4 the timer start(when u are using a giant thor), target some important structures in the entire map, and what is important ? these are depends on you what strategy you want to use, if you dont want to see goliath(u use BC), clear off all factories, if you dont wanna see air units, clear off the top left base. that give you a huge benefit. and when capturing towers, i noticed those "security team" arrived by using transports, either learn their pattern and make some turrets/put some anti air, kill them b4 they land or maybe you can capture by using a hidden unit(ghost, but i havent try b4). Mass units also work but that you need alot of time producing units, you need time, so be efficient.

i got 2 teams, the giant thor can be on its own, it goes to the right, another team take the air base on top left, then join force back to center base.

the giant thor can move right away after the timer start while you making another team, just make sure its repaired, being some scv with it, turn off the auto repair, cause if they attempt to repair when its attacking, very high chance they will be killed, manual repair better. i think i did it in like 15-16mins. i didnt do the secret mission objective along within the 20 mins, so i redo the mission which take longer. i think u can do it along with the 20 mins, just make another small team, few marines will do, nothing there to attack you.

Wings of Liberty: Hard 5  <=--- should be this one, right?

you can see my completion is 4 out of 5. 5th one needs 25 missions to be done, which I already done that but i also donno why it doesn't count.

If you scroll down my achievements,

Liberty Completionist: Hard (Complete all 29 Wings of Liberty campaign missions on Hard difficulty.) I'm already 28/29. sad.gif

so with what you brought up, i feel like i kena short-changed. tongue.gif 28 mission on HARD and the fella don't give me 25 mission reward. sad.gif
*
i know why, cause the hard5/10/15,brutal5/10/15 etc ONLY count in a single campaign. if you restart the campaign, it start counting again. so why its so ? it prevent you from choosing the easier route by restarting the campaign and get better tech then only do the mission in brutal/hard.

For example:
missions: A B [C D E] F G

A and B are starting of the campaign, u cant choose, F and G are Char and after also u cant choose, so mission C D and E are missions that you can pick to do which 1 first or later. So you must pick the correct order C D E, or E D C, or D E C or what ever order, but u cant restart the campaign, so u cant do like easyC easyD brutalE, then restart easyE easyD brutalC. doing like that give you a massive tech advantage, so both of them only get brutal(1), if you wanna get 3, you need to do all of them in a single campaign in the whatever difficulty u need. but i think for A B and F G, restarting campaign doesnt reset them.
ps. u can use 1 of the console in bridge to replay a mission, just use that and get 25 mission done in brutal/hard.

Haha yea.
I only got as far as Haven's fall so far.

The train robbery one I reloaded quite a number of times just to get the timing right to avoid those kill teams.

i got siege tanks b4 i started this mission, so its quite easy for me, when the comp alerts me a train is coming, i just move all those siege tanks in a good position where the train need to do some curve, then have some other tanks chasing the train while siege tanks kill all the guards at safe distance, just need to worry about air, they have banshees!!

nolah, full campaign 100% achieve is only like 1.7 or 1.8k points.
hmm i find it the other way around. playing too much campaign makes it hard for me to adapt properly to beat humans. cos campaign you know exactly what the computer is going to do, where his units are, etc etc. example zeratul's first mission, in brutal it's actually also damn easy cos already know what units coming up, what to do, etc etc.
*
yes that is right, and when you know their style of playing, you can predict what they are going to do next, and sometimes, even a very hard AI is so dumb, ie my base only have roaches, and they comes attack with plenty of zealots, stalkers and 2 void rays, i cant attack void rays, so i killed all other land units, guess what ? those void rays turn tail and run away while i cant do anything on them. its in their code they will flee when they see they have much lesser troops, didnt noticed that i cant do anything about it if they stay and kill all my roaches..

this thread is dying lol. got my FFA vs 7 AI (very hard). basically played on Lava Surge map, as terran, at the beginning of the game just lift off and land on one of the islands, will be 90% unmolested while fast tech to mass battlecruisers. i didn't even build a single ground unit lol. then wait for the computers to kill themselves off then attack the last remainder computer.

dunno whether this will work for insane though.
*
why bother ? just pick another map 4vs4 map that 4 staying very close together and another 4 further away, so u start with 3 AI nearby, cannon/bunker rush them all, then you stop and build while the other 4 fighting each other, once 1 or 2 of them is dead, then you only go there and finish the rest. ya, im talking about insane.

no, wont count if the game isnt fair, ie got handicap, or cheat code. and yes with insane, u also can rush, you just need to start building further away. and if your starting position is very near to them(u got a base nearby), you can directly build near to them, they wont kacao you. they only kacao u if your base is far and you start building near to them, if they dont attack you after you making a forge or a barrack, then you are safe to build anywhere d.

and repair achievement also can get from custom game, create a custom 2vs2 game, and let your ally being attack, u just send your scv and repair them, protect your enemy, not your ally so you can continue repairing =P

it worked, yes they wont build anything near enemy but in a 2vs2 game, and if u dont fend off the enemy, your AI ally wont be able to fend off by itself, so it base will be attacked.

for league achievements, if 2 bronze league people tekan find 1vs1 match together, with same / similar map preference, will they land in the same game?
*
very rare, when you press the find game button, you will be placed in a list, you wont be getting a game in a second, you will be placed in the list for few seconds, the list should always contains thousands of players looking for a game, then the server will do "match making" for you, it depends on how often you win/lost, if you win many recently, server will assign you a better player, so giving you better chance to lose, and if you continue winning, u will be level up(bronze -> silver), if you lose many in a row, they will give you a low ranked player, cause blizzards will lose business if they allows you to lose 20 games in a row, and if u still able to lose that, congratz, u will be level down =P. So chances of getting a game with a player who click at the same time as you doenst help much.

at least can try to achieve some.

i was thinking of

Achievements > Combat > Economy
Achievements > Combat > Melee Combat

not sure if

Achievements > Combat > League Combat

will work but if not mistaken I did get some against AI.

---------

my rationale is that say for achievements like

"Destroy 20 units with a single High Templar in a Melee game."

in order to get this one, I actually had a HT stand high up somewhere, and patiently waiting to kill probes with it. sad.gif each lightning 1 or 2 probes only. took quite a while to get it done.

that also I had to practically disable the AI until the fella only keep building probes. biggrin.gif
   
I also helped some stranger complete "Deplete 10 Rich Mineral Fields in a single Melee game." - the fella told me to STOP whacking the AI so that he could get the minerals. tongue.gif so I obliged. left my game there (went to my other computer) and told him to finish off the AI when he's done. tongue.gif
*
HT 20 kills is easy, cannon rush early on, kill all building except nexus, then rush HT.
