Fastest way to escape center perks in 1 day?
Hey, basically the title. I got close but messed up at the last second on my last run. Here's how it went down...

1) Show up for rollcall and get some easy favors for cash, just in case there is something to buy (I.e. file/duct tape)
2) Go to breakfast, grab all the forks, and run out and start chipping away at the wall right next to the main entrance
3) Continue doing so whenever possible until down to 4%
4) Go to laundry job to get a guard outfit
5) Make dummy so guards don't find me
6) at some point grab knives (or a file, if possible).
6) Right after lights out, put the dummy on the bed, put on guard suit, smash through the wall, replace the wall, and start working on the fence, and escape.

Last run I removed the wall literally right as a guard came up, and I didn't replace it in time. So I was wondering-- what do you all do to escape center perks?

Small tip

Make sure you escape before midnight for the achievement.

Back in the past you could escape at ANY time by just getting knives adn digging through...

Oh geez, thanks for the tip. That kind of ruins my plan. How do you get out without getting sniped?

Dun copy.
Ez nawt cool
It's just a popular route then, because I came up with this on my own. It seemed to make the most sense because only one wall + immediate access to the gate.

that offends me and my friend alot
Ehm, apologies, then? Not sure what for, but didn't mean to cause any offense. It just seemed like the most logical route for that prison. I still can't complete it before midnight though. :/

Except I didn't copy. Again, most logical route for center perks that I can think of.

and also I didn't see this post
so if OP is gonna say "oddsockjoe copied me"
yeah it had 2 posts in 4 hours then my one was added
Of course you didn't copy me, especially if you posted before. It's just, again, most logical route for the prison.

Now, can somebody actually answer me?

Nope, just did a perfect run and didn't escape until 1:30-ish. Anyone else?

Don't understand what you're saying. If you're putting a dummy on the bed in your cell after lights out, then you're locked in your cell and you haven't mentioned doing anything to get out of it.

You can put the dummy on the bed before roll call, then just head straight to the entrance before lights out, but that's not what you said you were doing.

Ah, I supposed I messed up with the wording. I put the dummy in the bed at "rollcall" and left before "lights out". Either way, my method is too slow.

That's not a one day escape, that still counts as a two day escape. I've done a few runs and gotten out right around 1am, but for the achievement you need to escape before midnight.

Take a Flimsy Cutters for escape. I finished at 23:50 pm. You need some luck for Flimsy cutter. (Flimsy Cutters or better.)

@ "copied": Not sure, but I doubt its such a super-route that its impossible for 2 people to come up with the same or similar solution
Especially as everything in the game is pretty "logical" and not overly complex

Holy crap, nice! It looks like you have to be pretty lucky to escape in one night.

There really isn't a better answer other than, do it quickly and hope to pull it off. You need quite some luck...

Check in for rolecall, sprint to your room, leave the bed dummy, and go down to bust through the wall immediately. You'd likely need to be outside before rolecall even ends... It seems impossible but you can do it.

Personally, I managed to escape with literally a minute to spare before midnight because I was lucky enough to find a couple files, and buy a duct tape. Flimsy cutters ftw.

I just did a run where everything went well. I got the dummy, got the suit, got the wall down fine, got the flimsy cutters, and got out without the guards seeing. Unfortunately, I got out four minutes after midnight... AGH. Time to do another 20 unsuccessful runs.
