Finishing Rexxar's campaign on hard is not possible. BUG

Today I have gotten through all of the the Frozen Throne expansion on hard difficulty. However after having finally finished all the missions on hard I was dismayed to find out that the game had not counted my victory on hard nor on any difficulty for just one mission. As far I believe the mission that has not been counted is “Chapter Two, Old Hatreds” for Rexxar’s campaign (which I might add was not a short mission to do). I replayed the mission from start to finish to see if it would fix itself which it has not.

I’m not sure why it has not counted my doing the mission, perhaps due to a possible bug I encountered at the final stage to destroy Proudmoore’s castle. The possible bug I’m referring to is one where Proudmoore is about to die and then suddenly becomes invulnerable, which I’m pretty sure is not part of the game. possibly this ends up affecting the mission victory status therefore not counting said mission.

Honestly I was really looking forward to getting my picture frame of the Lich King for completing all the Frozen Throne campaigns on hard and now it doesn’t seem like it’s going to happen unless I can get some assistance on the issue. I’m not sure if anyone else if having this issue so I would like to know if anyone is having the same problem.

Also I would have placed a screenshot showing that I have completed “Chapter One, To Tame A Land” and “Chapter Three, A Blaze Of Glory” on hard difficulty with “Old Hatreds” having no symbol at all to even say that I’ve completed it on any difficulty. However I am unable to post links on here for the screen shot, so if anyone needed said screenshot to offer better assistance on the matter then I would be more than happy to supply it. Once again if someone could get back to me on this matter then it would be much appreciated. Thank you.

I’m having the exact same issue.

I wonder if this is for everybody or a lot of people. Maybe not many people have gotten this far yet so there possibly hasn’t been too many complaints as of yet.

I have the same problem… Have tried to complete the campaign on story, normal and hard, nothing seems to work.

Hi,

It seems that classic and reforged campaign is seperated. I.e. completing missions on classic settings will not unlock portraits.

If you completed the mission, but did not get the icon reward due to a bug, try to reload the mission and use the cheat code “AllYourBaseAreBelongToUs” to instantly achieve victory. This should skip any potential bugs hiatus that may normally occur on the way to victory.

Looks like I’ll have to redo all the campaigns in classic with that cheat however I’ll try it and let you know if it works. Feels a bit of a cop out though seeming as you can just get the portrait by cheating.

EDIT: I have gone from start to finish using said cheat on the classic game mode. It brought me all the way up to the end of the Lich King campaign however I can’t access the Rexxar campaign, possibly for using the cheat to get all the way through. So all in all as it stands it’s still not working sadly.

EDIT(FIXED): For some reason I tried it once again on the new Reforged version of the mission for Rexxar and for some reason it worked now. I have no idea why or how but I have my portrait now. Perhaps doing a part of the older campaign through skipping it fixed said bug, or maybe Blizzard patched it? Though I doubt they did seeming as I have not seen an update to the game. All in all if anyone else is have the same problem as I have I would go through the same process of going through the classic campaign and using “allyourbasearebelongtous” cheat on all the missions and then trying it on the Reforged campaign’s version of the Rexxar mission that isn’t working. Hope this helps anyone who needs help with this problem until Blizzard fixes it.

Same problem here

just start the map and type allyourbasearebelongtous

Thanks for the report everyone! We are investigating it

How are you managing to play it at all? The rexxar campaign doesn’t appear to be available.

Can confirm the “allyourbasearebelongtous” worked for me when I just used it on mission 2. I didn’t have to do any other steps that banjo suggested, just loaded up map 2 again and typed it and hit enter.

I am playing it on hard as well but on the mision for the goblin tunels i can not target the support beans with the sappers anything like this happen to you?

I couldn’t either, you just have to walk them between the beams and press the skill. Idk if that’s how it was in original but that worked for me

Exact issue, cannot be a win on any difficulty, tried everything… Chapter Two : Old Hatreds…

Was this fixed in the last patch? I tried again lasts night and I am still having the same issue.

thats an old warcraft 3 classic bug i fergot how to beat it its ben to long

Just to help out with that, once you paste the link, use the “Preformatted text” markdown on it. It’s the </> button in the tool bar. That will allow you to post non-hyperlinked URLs.

Yeah your 100% rigte did the same thing as you describe and did that same as you same conclusion, they really need to step there game up soon. It’s so bugged it’s nearly impossible to play.

Okay I had the same issue or similar. Act 2 of Rexxars mission wasn’t complete and I did not feel like doing it again. I saw you guys say to use a cheat “allyourbasearebelongtous” so I reload that mission on hard and used it and it completed it. I checked and now I have the 4 portraits. I emailed blizzard a week ago about this and they did not respond to me. They used to have excellent customer service and helped me with whatever I needed in a timely manner. Now I have to get help from the community, which isn’t bad but you would think it’s their game and they would address said issue from more than a month ago and help anyone that has issues with it. Thank you guys for the help I really appreciate it.

There is still something wrong. What first got me on to the bug was when admiral Proudmoore became permanently invulnerable. I ignored him and attacked his base but then a invulnerable human transport ship showed up. I was still not sure if this was a bug but then admiral Proudmoore started to run on water hunting down my not-invulnerable transport ship with all my heroes inside. I unloaded my hero on the island just south east of the castle. This pleased admiral Proudmoore i assume because he then stop hunting me and despawned and was back at his base. I attacked again seeing if i could destroy the towers, this made admiral Proudmoore mad and he left the game, just disappeared and he has not reappeared. The invulnerable human transport ship is still in the game.
