After completing the game campaign, it let me pick previous missions to get the objectives. HOWEVER i don't think you can get the secret mission if you missed it earlier  hmm.gif  I advise not to risk it.

You can't get secret mission once you are on Char, official forums are full of QQ about it

Also even if you do decide to save Haven from the Protos, the lady scientist still dies and Haven still falls. Would you rather look like a dumbass after your work was for nothing as everyone on Haven dies ? Or do the right thing as the Protos suggest, by saving the ones you can, and killing the infested ones, you decide.


I choose to side Dr , that lady.. and i suceed and at last i get a kiss from her...... kakaka

Actually they do. "Friends of Protoss" or something like that.

I terminated the good doctor anyways. Why piss off super powdahful aliens when for a colony that might or might not been savable?

From what I read the cannon story is to ally with Tosh and to save the colony.

According to stuff on the "Behind the scene" DvD from the Collector edition.

Oh so they did try to save the colony in the cannon story o_o;

I didn't know that. I guess i will try that.

But honestly, i didn't feel bad not saving them :/ especially with the ending fmv after you complete that mission.
Oh and if you decided to side with Nova, Tosh gets really really really pissed off at you  shocking.gif  so yeah... so bros over hoes  nod.gif


Added on July 31, 2010, 12:17 pmBy the way, now i don't need to feel sad for the Korean players who had plated SC1 and Brood wars until recently and still thought it was cool even with their ancient graphics.

If they can be so crazy about outdated graphics games, i wonder how they are right now after SC2 launch @_@: scary.


Added on July 31, 2010, 12:39 pmOk i just saved haven. The cinematic doesn't show anything bad happening. Only they are given some time to find a cure, thats it.

I guess saving Haven was the right choice seeing as nothing bad is shown :/  ??
*
During the mission if you side with the Protoss they will mention like "Doc has barricaded herself in the lab" or something, I thought she was trying to crazy last minute thing to try to find a cure.
I believe that's how she got infected.

I am not 100% sure she isnt though but the movie after the mission if you save the colony, seems she is fine and all.

And if you side with Nova... Tosh is indeed angry.... but not for long tongue.gif

I discovered something awful.

You know that Tectatron game. You cannot do it unless you replay campaign which sux.

Yep, I really really really wish Blizz would make you able to go back to Hyperion after you complete the game.

To be able to buy armory/tech to get achievement, replay the arcade etc.

The way they handle the "after game" is pretty bad in my opinion.

Like if you want to restart a new campaign, you HAVE to keep a save of your previous one, otherwise there is no way to go back to it.

What do you mean ??

So how do i go about doing this.
I've finished all 29 campaigns on normal mode. But i missed out on the Terra Tron achievement which you can only do on the arcade on the battle ship.

So how do i do that ???

I don't want to redo all the missions againĀ  shocking.gif

Only way yo go back to hyperion to do this is to restart a new campaign and complete at least Mar'sara missions (so the first 3 missions)

BUT make sure you keep a save of your completed normal campaign if you want to go back to it.

Like:

- You have now your normal campaign and when you select "continue campaign" it brings you to the list of all the missions you did and can select to go back etc.

- If you start a new campaign the "continue campaign" will now be the new started campaign ONLY

The only way to go back and forth between your two campaign is to load a save of each.

So keep a save for your completed campaign.

Very stupid and prone to mistake system, wish they did something like DoW2 where each campaign is kept into a separate profile/save and you cannot overwrite each other.

So how do i save the complete campaign ?? Please teach me sensei.

And even if i do manage to save complete campaign, and start a new campaign.

After doing Tectatron and getting the achievement; will i still have that achievement including ones from the previous complete campaign save file ???  hmm.gif

Achievements are linked to your profile so whatever you do with campaign has no incidence on them, you always keep them.

As to how to save a campaign, there is no special way, just make sure you do not override your latest save for this campaign.
There is also the auto-save on victory that can help.
Like you did Mission "X" last on your completed save, you should have an autosave "X victory" in the list, reloading this one will let you re-access to the completed campaign.

One question regarding protoss research choices.
At 10 points, if you did choose faster refineries, then at 15 points when you choose automated refineries will the harvesting be faster or no?
If no then I see no point in choosing faster refineries in the first place...
