Description

➽ GUIDE: This video contains 15 additional tips to solo stealth Counterfeit. It is meant as a complement to the full guide (linked below), which explains the actual strategy you need to follow to stealth this map. Thus, this video explains two different approaches that make soloing this heist more smooth and reliable, but the basics you will need to know are explained in the guide: https://steamproxy.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2021367468
The "Complete guide to full stealth Counterfeit" explains three different ways to stealth this map: solo; with a 3/4-man crew; and printing infinitely. This and much more can be learnt if you check the guide!

➽ TIME STAMPS: The following list of timestamps can guide the viewer to whichever part of the video they want to see (there's multiple examples for both strategies).

➤ 00:00 → Introduction of the problem.
➤ 00:35 - 11:10 → Solution #1: get rid of all the civs.
00:35 → Example 1
04:02 → Example 2
07:04 → Example 3
➤ 11:10 - 13:00 → Solution #2: let the cop spot you right as he spots the body bag (or shortly after).
11:10 → Example 1
12:05 → Example 2

➽ ABOUT THIS VIDEO: Whenever you're solo stealthing Counterfeit, something like the situation established in this video can happen: cop 1 becomes stuck upon spotting the body bag that you left for him, however, the civilians around him get alerted by his alerted state.
When he realizes that the civilians around him are alerted, he becomes unstuck and sounds the alarm because he's able to easily path to his new source of alert (i.e., these alerted civilians).
To reliably avoid this situation, I present in this video two strategies to deal with this problem.
