Can you stealth Counterfeit?

[MissCassidy]

I attempted it a few times, but failed. Is it possible to stealth it like in the first game?

[AvatarMan]

I've heard you can only stealth to the 2nd squad car that patrols. After it comes you will get the alert saying neighbours saw something suspicious.

[Sunk Cost Fallacy]

no you cant, just like in the first game, except the only difference in pd2 is that you can answer the phone, but otherwise no you cant, the police will get suspicious of the 2 missing officers or the officers reporting back.

for about 5 minutes or so... Then, it all goes down. Same as undercover.

[MissCassidy]

Welp. I stealth it to the point where Wilson (or Mitchell?) opens the door to his basement.

[Ghostbear]

it is a pseudo-stealth heists, it will go loud up to a certain point.

Is there any form of Stealth Bonus available? No. Ergo, you can't fully stealth it, ever.
Same with Car Shop (which is only a stealth-only job because going loud fails the job after a few minutes if you don't escape) and Big Oil Day 2.

In the original game, you could only stealth it until the second set of officers are killed.
I can say that it's pretty much the same in PD2. So you can get the basement open before the cops are on high alert.

You can stealth Firestarter Day 1 and Mail Crasher.

Not really. You won't get the bonus, because the game doesn't recognize that it was done quietly.
However, Counterfeit will always go loud, similar to Big Oil Day 2. No matter what, it will always go loud, but you can stealth for a head start.

You can't because they're not intended to. Mall Crasher even has more than four guards on anything other than normal.

But it is possible.

Only on normal or by abusing a bug. And you're not supposed to.
Stop arguing, you're in the wrong here.

Well, techincally he isn't. I mean, I guess you could call it an exploit, but they both were stealthable at least one point in time. I've done both. You are right that they are not designed for stealth, though. And I've never counted the guards on Mallcrashers, might be that OVK added too many for stealth later on.

To be fair, i did stealth mallcrasher on DW.
It's not intended to, but it can be done even on DW by not abusing any bugs.

The only bug was them clipping into the windows after they called the helicopter.
