The StarCraft II: Wings of Liberty single-player campaign can be experienced in many different ways, and we've seen a number of players discussing the choices one can make when progressing from mission to mission. Among these choices is the level of difficulty on which a mission can be completed. Depending on the selected difficulty, objectives can become harder or easier and mission rewards can range from spendable credits all the way up to epic profile portraits.

In the end, there is no right or wrong difficulty setting; it's entirely up to one's own personal preference and play style. With so many possibilities available to our players, though, we're wondering: what's the hardest difficulty on which you've completed the single-player campaign?

After responding to our poll, why don't you tell us about the most challenging moment from the hardest difficulty level you've completed?

What's the point of this poll? Blizzard already has this information available to them, due to the achievement system.

Uhh. Discussion? Community involvement? They can give you the numbers, sure, but that doesn't mean that they know which mission you thought was the hardest, or easiest, or what you had trouble with... all of which will invariably pop up here.

Plus, I'm curious how people vote.

Well the hardest missions were definitely "In Utter Darkness" and "All In" aka "In Utter Darkness 2:Electric Boogaloo". Also doing "The Dig" before vikings was pretty trying.

The most annoying achievements are "Let no buildings be destroyed" ones, they really leave no leeway for mistakes.

In my opinion, less polls and more blue posts about how to fix zerg.

agreed endarken, zerg need just one thing, a way for roaches to sneak through packs of hydras to get to the front line and do their job.

1.1 SC2 needs jetpack roaches

I beat it on normal first just for fun, and now I'm going back on brutal.
Only problem is i wanted to try out different techs that i didn't choose the first time, and now i cant beat the last mission w/ a lack of perdition turrets TT

Mine would have to be All In vs air without killing the Leviathan in brutal. Most intense 8 minutes of SC2 I've played yet.

I don't think any missions were noticably harder in brutal compared to hard with the exception of all in. Some of the achievements were a little tedious, don't really care for the timed ones, but just finished brutal completionist so going to go polish off the last few achievements I need. Overall the added challenge of most of the missions on brutal does make it quite enjoyable.

All in on Brutal vs Air. Most frustrating 8 hours of my life.

I just did casual. So I could get the feel for the game and see the story. Probably play on Brutal later on.
