Not technically a campaign question, but have you tried the challenges/tutorials, and are there achievements for those?
Achievements for the challenges do exist. From what I saw on the website, there seems to be about 3 per challenge.Quote:

Just played through the first 4 missions. Let me tell you, the the first 2 missions are quite possibly the worst "beginner/tutorial" missions Blizzards ever designed. It was really disappointing, thank god the game starts picking up and being fun after that. WC3 had fun first 2 missions :x.
I saw vids of the first 2. They were the most boring missions ever. I'll take your word that the campaign gets way better after that :PQuote:

30 mins away in California!!
All tutorial miissions should be separate from the main campaign - I hate it when they waste the first 2-3 missions on that stuff.
.....and yet, I cant wait to play them. :)
I was a little put off by a few things. This is definitely Firefly 2.0; Raynor is definitely toting the "Wholesome Cowboy" image.
The dialog is a little hokey in my opinion, but the gameplay is still very much StarCraft.
My "Oh HELL yeah, it's ON!" moment came when... well, I can spell it out in one word: Molotovs.
Yeah I really hope we don't see to many more hokey dialog but I have a feeling I haven't seen the last of it. (played first 4 missions.) I will say this though, anything bad about sc2 campaign can be made up for when u hit the cantina and are allowed to play the arcade game "the lost viking." Now that is what I call epic win.Quote:

I wonder if they retconn the UED much.
I started Kampaign on normal and failed the 2nd achivement for each of the first 3 missions right away by one count each! Well Iīll propably play them again anyway but itīs kinda funny.
Beat the first 5 missions, played but can't beat the next 2 on brutal when I am totally exhausted lol, (zombie and lava) missions are lots of fun , i agree first 2 sucked
The cinematic and stuff are great, just wish they got more in depth, hopefully later
I don't mind how simple the first couple of missions were. It's not too dissimilar from the first SC. Maybe that's good, maybe not.
What I do know is this: I want Stetmann dead. Most annoying voice ever. And I've heard his voice actor before, and I hate him.
Good luck going to ny, that's how people sound lolQuote:

And I can tell you, without a doubt, that if I met one who even sounded remotely like Stetmann, I would punch them in the face.
So far, I haven't had to.
he sounds like someone from the city not rochester, but I would needa turn the game bck on to confirm.....
his lovable walrus mustache doesn't help?
Oh yes, and this game is totally firefly.....Development started on the game around Firefly too..so that might hv something to do with it..or it's just Firefly's popularity.
His balls need to drop!
I expected a twenty-something year old IT kid, not... not an actual kid! Y'know, a representative for the developers of the game, someone who has no social skill whatsoever but keeps his head in his computer. But Stetmann is incompetent-sounding!
Well I've got half-way through on brutal and man it is tough. A couple of missions I've done on the first try but the rest I've had to make multiple attempts at, probably more than I'd care to admit. You really need to optimise your strategy for each level and pick the perfect unit composition to get each job done, but I like it hard. The story is starting to get into the juicy bits :)
Being on SEA is really sucking on the custom map aspect. No doubt the NA server already has all the maps you've known from beta up and more, while on SEA the number one map by far is mine and I think there are 3 other custom maps published. Very sad. I've offered to host maps on SEA for other authors but we're still stuck with a very trivial 10mb/20mb limit.
After being in beta and waiting so long for retail, I still don't think it's really sunk in that SC2 has really been released.
I'm so hyped up right now it is not fair. Still got 5 more hours to go until digital release can play!
