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.

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.

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.

What glitch skips are you talking about? There are barely any in the game. Out of bounds aren't even used. The only thing that is considered a glitch is the Hack & Run teleport imo, but that's very easy to do.

Check my guides out for more information on performing the tricks in this game if you haven't done so already.

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.

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 only saves about half a second, but I'll still post it here. The potential crime can be skipped without needing to shoot the person to skip the potential crime call. You can also skip the potential crime call by hacking another person, a lure, or blockers (at 101+ fps only).

Credit goes to @pofliz for figuring out that you can hack another person to do this.

If you have a Kodachi or Chopper available after the autosave, it is faster to not reload autosave so that you can use them to kill the guy and drive to Bedbug. You want to also destroy the pallets to be able to see the phone from the spot(s) in this video, and that can be done by crashing into them with the bike or using explosives (grenade/GL). Be quick if you want to keep the bike because the timer can run out if you are doing the faster spawn camping strats. Credit goes to @MrDirtbag for suggesting this.

The helicopter in this mission will spawn opposite of the direction that you are looking when you reach the checkpoint, so I look west to spawn it east. This makes it possible to hack the helicopter as soon as you run outside, saving you a couple of seconds.

The new strat has you take the bike to place IEDs around everywhere instead so that you can spawn camp even better than the old strat. It is risky though because you don't have much time to place the IEDs for the car spawn in the east. You also can't place the IEDs directly in the spot of the car spawn because it might not be destroyed. And for exiting the area to reach the car spawn in the west, make sure you do it at about 5 secs because the car spawns get delayed for some reason if you exit the area too early. Lastly, you need enough electronic parts and unstables to make the proxy IEDs for this strat. Credit goes to @MrDirtbag for finding this new strat.

The new route can be difficult to drive due to random vehicles, fixed objects, and the power turn. Credit goes to @GALLLABO for thinking of this route.

The Aiden animation and time till the video starts playing on the computer can be skipped. You can do the skip by running at the corner of the computer (close to the bike) and pressing interact. By doing this, you can collect the items in the area: 2 IEDs, 2 electronic parts, and a chemical component. Credit goes to @pofliz for letting us know that this saves time.

Instead of waiting for the second security chief to walk past the explosive box, you can manipulate him to go there or kill him using the grenade launcher. You can climb up on the closest trailer to kill both security chiefs from there with the GL. This new strat is not easy though because you do need to have a good drive and aim well with the GL.

This strat is only possible on PC since you need the spacebar to do it. You need to wait until when Tobias starts saying his line first to press space and to skip that line and Aiden's line after that. For the dialogue skip on the last line, you need to wait until Tobias says his last line to press space. Time save is about 7 secs. Credit goes to @MrDirtbag for finding this skip.

For the new strat on They Can't Hide, you can profile people near the fixed performance car spawn instead of the sidewalk for the potential crime. The benches nearby seem to always have people. It is faster than getting a good spawn on the road. Credit goes to @MrDirtbag for finding this.

This compares the new GL route and the old one. For the new one, you get the GL during Not the Pizza Guy instead of using a cash run after Tools of the Trade in Act 2. Getting the GL early also allows you to use it during A Wrench in the Works to destroy the cars (And Dressed in Peels/Hold On, Kiddo, but it doesn't save time on those missions). All drives were done using the Sayonara.

Estimated Times from Foresight to Backstage Pass: 41 secs (Old Route) vs 37 secs (New Route) Estimated Times during Not the Pizza Guy: 40 secs (Old Route) vs 52 secs (New Route) Estimated Times during A Wrench in the Works: 56-57 secs (Old Route) vs 55 secs (New Route) Estimated Times from Tools of the Trade to Gun Shop: 9 secs (Old Route) vs 0 secs (New Route)

You can park your bike further to the right and take a different driving route if you intend to go for the dialogue skip on this mission. Shooting enough times (probably 12+) allows Bedbug to detect you, so you don't have to drive up to him. Doing these things gives you just enough time to do the dialogue skip and make it to Uninvited before the mission spawns (if you have a good drive).

To do the turn climb, you have to be at about the middle part of the stairs. The turn climb strat was found by @K1ng_xxransomxx.

You can skip killing the two guards near the display terminal if you throw a grenade over the walls at the entrance.
