This compares the routes at the start of Breakable Things (A2M2). By aiming at the "roll" thing and throwing a grenade, you should be able to get it to kill the guy with the access code consistently. Then you can hack the access code off of his body while running to the forklift. After you have the access code, you can hack the forklift and climb up to the second floor.

Credit goes to @K1ng_xxransomxx for finding the strat & @MrDirtbag for finding a consistent way of doing it.

This is the revised comparison for the Brandon Docks ctos route/strats & the Risky Bid cash run. The new strats at Brandon Docks ctOS (Both Bridge Jump/no Bridge Jump) use the closer entrance and skip having to wait for the cash run there. If you do the bridge jump, you can make the cash run near the parking lot (on the way to Breakable Things) after finishing the ctOS center mission. You should also take the route in this video for doing the bridge jump because it is easier to hack the bridge earlier. But if you don't want to do the bridge jump, it is better to take a route that allows you to make the cash run on the way to the ctOS center.

The new route from the parking lot to A Risky Bid (A2M12) is also about 1 sec faster than the new route at the old strat/CR location.

Credits go to @GALLLABO, @MrDirtbag, and myself.

You can throw a grenade to stun Tobias and destroy the fence to get to him quicker without needing the bike. The dialogue skip is surprisingly about as fast as the grenade strat here.

The fastest route to Role Model is to actually use the In Plain Sight (A4M2) cash run. The bike at this location should be consistent. You can also reload autosave to skip the Aiden monologue, but it is not faster.

Getting a vehicle at the start of By Any Means Necessary is faster than running all the way. You just need to trigger the dialogue first before getting in the vehicle.

Credits go to @GALLLABO for suggesting this.

Repost

This is a comparison of the Japanese language compared to English in A3M6 (By Any Means Necessary), it's the only mission where a language is faster than any others for this game. This saves approximately 24 seconds.

New strat for Breadcrumbs. Shoot near the enemy with the suitcase as soon as the objective icon appears on top of it's head. (It's possible you can get called on by bystanders. Avoid holding the gun for too long and being close to them.) Shoot a few times around him to spook and make him go into "search mode". He'll walk faster to the first briefcase exchange, afterward when the swapping ends and that the objective icon "reappears" on top of the new Holder of the case, do it like before with the first guy. For the guy in the boat, shoot as soon as he opens the door (can shoot at the door) to spook him again and make him walk faster to his destination. (video on left is the new strat)

This is similar to the new strat in Breadcrumbs. You can shoot near Bedbug to put him into a state where he has the gun drawn and walks faster. It carries over even after he exits the vehicle again. You do want to be careful with this strat though because you can fail the mission more easily for some reason if you do this, so it is recommended to wait for Bedbug's car to drive a bit further away before getting on the bike to prevent this. There is a time save of about 13 seconds here.

Again, this is similar to the new strat in Breadcrumbs. You can shoot near Bedbug to put him into a state where he has the gun drawn and walks faster. It saves about 8 seconds here.

New strat for when going to the mission Illusions or A2M2 for Bad Blood. Use the digital trip to warp next to the mission and take a car to complete the rest, How to do it: walk first and focus asap (to avoid the animation when taking a trip and to avoid for the phonecall to come in). Once the trip starts, quit it asap and you'd respawn always with a car to take to the mission marker.

Saves 6 seconds compared with No reload and Normal strats. Lose maybe 2 seconds if Reloading autosave vs Normal strats, reload autosave as a backup if the phonecall came through to not lose as much.

New route for Bait - A2M1 at the beginning. It's a much more straight forwarded path but you have to drive very well to have the timesave, it's easy to crash sometimes if you suck. Comparison to the route in the current WR. This save 3 (or more if driven better) seconds for just a different route.

Credits to @GALLLABO for suggesting a new route for this mission and me who came up with this one.

Doing the bomb jump strat here requires you to have the blast resistance skill, so you will need to have obtained enough XP from killing enemies earlier in the run. By positioning T-bone as shown here, you can make the bomb jump consistent. It skips the R/C car section and the short hacking puzzle. This saves over 10 seconds.

This compares the new route that I found with Mr.Dirtbag's route and the old route in Bait. You might have to slow down/power turn in the grass to avoid crashing into stuff.

Thanks to @MrDirtbag and @GALLLABO for making me take another look at this driving route.

This shows the new bike strats that can be done on Connections (with the dirtbike, so it can be faster with a better bike). Taking a bike inside the building allows you to do an extra dialogue skip and makes it so that you can get to the next mission quicker. You can also park the bike after you have killed everyone and while waiting for the upload to finish. The bike can't be parked right next to the computer due to an invisible wall.

This shows how to set up the "upload virus from anywhere strat" and where I stand to kill all the enemies in Connections. For this strat to work, you can't reload the autosave at the fixer place. You also don't want to start the upload close within the range of the computer.

A faster way to exit the silo in the first mission (after sleeping) is to slide over to the refrigerator, climb on top of it, and then jump off the moose head to get up there. You can also exit out of cover near the elevator to reach the controls faster.

This compares the strats that I have done for the fixer chase. The fast/risky strat relies on good RNG with the traffic light hack for it to be the fastest. The alternate fast strat can be done with the Kodachi, and it requires you to catch up to the car at the intersection shown for it to work; it is also more consistent than the fast/risky strat. The old/slow strat here is not perfect, so it can be done a bit faster.

The new strat requires you to kill all enemies outside of the ctOS center and then reload autosave to spawn outside of the nearest train station (along the normal route that we take). You can throw a grenade to kill the two guys on the balcony. Hack the explosion to kill the two guys on the train platform thing. Then you can kill the rest with the Goblin after you climb up near the ledge. You can also blow up the ctOS box to freeze the enemies and make the shooting easier.

The bike will then normally spawn in three different locations after you reload autosave. It could be a Kodachi rather than a Sayonara though.

Figured out a way to make the ending more consistent. The enemies here can be manipulated to spawn in a particular spot if you stand far enough away from that spot. Then you can just shoot them as they spawn in. You can use grenades for the last 1-2 guys if you are not sure about when they will stop spawning (can also count how many are killed/use the timer).
