Hi, I've been learning any% route lately using mostly Adam's 1:16 run and I have couple questions.

1. I know how to use Cop Bribe replay glitch, but I'm not sure when would be the best time to actually make the replay. Is it safe to do during some mission? Also can replay "disappear" after a while or is it always available for the rest of the game? Since I'm not planning on using any other replay strats (mission duping etc.) for now, wouldn't it be best to just make it right at the start of the game (maybe during Drive Misty for me)?

2. From what I've seen current strategy for Espresso 2 Go is to fly a Dodo to Portland. Problem is I'm not really comfortable with flying(I can fly from airport to construction site, but that's about it). Should I just use old route from Adam's run (Staunton -> Portland -> Shoreside) or maybe is there some other route that's faster than that.

3. Could someone link me to a good run that does SAM on the airport and not on the dam? And some run that does The Exchange without Dodo? Again I'd rather avoid flying Dodo for now.

4. And one last thing: When flying from the airport to the construction site how do you land? I know you pull Dodo's nose up, but do you just release W or maybe press S too?

Thanks for all the help in advance.

1. if you're not using dupes you can make the bribe replay on the first mission in the alleyway on your way to the safehouse. the replay won't dissapear unless you overwrite it by pressing F2 also if you pick up the bribe normally you'll have to wait 6 minutes until it respawn. (bribe picked up through a replay don't despawn)

2. if you don't do dodo bait i believe it's faster no to take a dodo for E2G and do staunton - portland - shoreside

for the rest i don't really know

If you don't want to worry about making a replay and then a couple seconds later crashing into the boxes, then do the replay on Salvatore's Called Meeting. But if you want to use it during Van Heist, then do it in Drive Misty For Me if you want. Like Gael said, you would need to wait 6 minutes if you've collected it, can still pick it up afterwards.

As far as I know, there really isn't. Espresso 2 Go like Gael said, is only faster if Dodo Bait is done. Isn't a big deal, you're only losing about a minute. Better off going with Adam's route unless you can find something faster yourself.

One of my personal favorites, Adam's 1:19:42 run is pretty solid using no dodo strats.

You hold/press neither of those keys. I personally still don't know how to consistently land in the same spot but you slow down a bit once you meet the buildings, let go for a bit and find a good reference point to pull the dodo's nose up.

I look forward to your runs.

Thank you very much for the answers.
