I pretty much knew I'd never get all the stars but I still kept trying anyway since it was helping me out in other areas. When I saw the costume, it took all the wind out of my sails and I haven't been back to S.T.A.R. Labs since.

I just know right now these are gonna be a bitch for me to get all three stars on

Superman - Mission 6
Batman - Mission 17
Catwoman - Mission 24
Shazam - Mission 49
Harley - Mission 63 & 64
Deathstroke - Mission 72
Green Arrow - Mission 85
Green Lantern - Mission 116
Cyborg - Mission 125
Sinestro - Mission 165
Grundy - Mission 192, 194, and 196
Black Adam - Mission 219 and 220

They're likely more, but these are the ones that immediately come to mind.

OP, how did you get three stars on mission... 248 I believe? Its a Red Son Wonder Woman mission. On my console one of the challenges is glitched: don't get hit for eight seconds. I go for twenty or more seconds, clearing even the entire challenge without getting hit (that's without getting hit AT ALL: including blocking) and I don't get the damn star.

Also, Grundy's first Red Son mission where he's being turned into awesome communist Grundy. I seriously think this may be bugged for me as well. I can button mash pretty damn fast. The flash button-mashing mission where you have to beat Superman in a race around the world wasn't too hard, but this Grundy challenge is seemingly impossible. For some reason my button mashing inputs aren't registering unless I alternate the button presses, which I obviously can't do as fast as just mashing them all at once fast with the face of my thumb per usual. Yeah, I'm a pad player.

Any help is appreciated, these 4 stars are the only ones I have left to get.

Hey there, lol you know it's funny because the first day my friend and I tried a few red son and both had trouble on that one too. We thought it was a glitch too, BUT NRS is sneaky....what they don't tell you is this, the trick is rather simple. You see you can just jump and use WW's lasso whip by jumping and hitting A all day and getting a perfectly, mixed with low pokes Down+A you can get a flawless....now you'd think doing that for 40 seconds or whatever would get you the "don't get hit for 8 seconds" star right? Wrong. lol As I've found out, you must AVOID getting hit for 8 straight seconds on ONE guy(doesn't matter which) but you have to avoid getting hit by any one guy, so dodge their guns, turtle, use your air dash whatever it takes to get the job done then you'll see a little star pop up on the lower left as always with any other mission and THEN you can continue to just kill them all....Of course they don't tell you this but I want to NOTE: To all on that mission everyone 248, you MUST avoid getting hit by any ONE enemy for 8 straight seconds(it doesn't matter if you go through them like water without getting it, you won't get the star if you do that...you MUST avoid getting hit by just ONE of them for 8 straight seconds)

Hope this helps and believe me I thought the same thing then started to think hmm let me try avoiding 8 seconds on ONE guy instead of just hitting all of them without getting hit for 8 seconds(I know it's rather dumb but slick on NRS's part) yet annoying....

Yep anytime ;) Which one? lol

Cool, hope I was able to help out.

Same here. Anyone who manages to get 3 stars on all missions, I salute you.

Some of them require more luck than skill.(looking at you mission 220)
Yeah dude, if there's a specific one you really can't get past feel free to ask ;) I know most people gave up on these lol due to how annoying they are but they are more then possible with patience and determination.

I got all 3 stars today. I liked the fun missions like Pong with Black Adam but there were many really annoying ones too.
Nevertheless I'm maining Flash so I had to do it.

But I wonder what the Red Son DLC is, I assume it's pre-order related? Do you get more missions with that?

The "Edit" button exists for a reason, ya know? Try not to repeatedly post like that.

Yeah, the Red Son DLC gives you bonus missions.

I can post however I want and to OP I'm on the Cyborg training mission where you need a combo greater than 40%. Any suggestions?

For the 40% ones the easiest to do is a jump-in 3 cancel into Super, that worked for me in all cases, where I didn't know the character.

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhh thank you :) it took me a 2 more hits to get it with what you said, but I got it now I'm on the rocket one .-. where you have to dodge the rockets by jumping. The annoying one but I'm done for the night anyways.
 
I don't think I'll be able to get 3 stars on all S.T.A.R. Labs missions. D:
I can post however I want
That's no way to behave.
I only wish for less....."clutter", and more reading convenience. Not saying you have to, but can you at least understand?

Haha actually I was being kind of dumb and never really realized that edit was there but after you said something, I felt stupid and got defensive but I did use edit in my above post :p so I'm sorry and I understand.

All right. Last night, I actually got all three stars on Mission 220. It did require luck and I did get a bit lucky considering I was on my second health bar when Killer Frost decided to use her super move. And when I was fighting Shazam my health was low and I accidently activated a clash. Which turned out to be a good move because I won the clash and regained some of my health.

Yes, if you pre-ordered it at Gamestop you got the 20 extra Red Son missions ;)

do you get anything for 3 starring all red son missions?
Unfortunately, no you do not. You do get 3 extra costumes though with that pack if you pre-ordered the game at Gamestop.

Was going to say this, lol you could just wait until you have to do the Super..then do a string, bounce cancel off the wall, then jump in with A into his super...easily does over 40%

Yeah, that one is annoying because you have to be patient, wait for one of them to do it(KF tends to do it more then Shazam I've noticed) then win the fight lol

Grundy think you handsome!
Damn, props dude. Wish I had that type of patience, will probably attempt to get it around next year.

I remember Wonder Woman having one awful mission, you have to fight Raven and basically have to win 2 rounds flawlessly. If she hits you 4 or 5 times it's over.
