Can You Beat The Escapists 2 Without Gaining Heat?

The Escapists 2 is a very simple game at times. For being in a prison, you have a lot of freedom to as you want with very few consequences. But how challenging is the game if I have to beat every prison without gaining any guard heat?
This is part 1 of 2. (Assuming I can fit the last half of prisons into 1 video haha)

Many have noticed I did gain heat at the end of Rattlesnake Springs which I missed! I have attempted the prison again as well as correcting other mistakes in a separate video, which is linked in the description!

[@willcthebest]

Maybe if you exited out of The Mineshaft when it was nighttime you would not have gotten Heat

[@HatsOffYT]

Honestly better than other challenge videos where they take it to serious and punishing

[@rainsong5549]

Man, this literally flips the whole game, instead of being aggressive and strong, you need to be avoid every fly from 1 mile radius, and be on every breakfast,job,shower. etc

[@jaylee6083]

Stealth 100

[@MangoAurum]

In Rattlesnake you got 30 heat from the snipers at the end, though I doubt there's much that could have been done about that one Great video overall!

[@smokecrash2147]

Just leave while lights are out

[@chemicalindecisive]

Alternatively, use the speedrun strategy. Reset until you have an iron bar in either your desk or cellmate's desk. Then rush the lowest point of 2nd floor (right above the main entrance). Use the iron bar to break a wall and just walk out. Snipers won't give heat, and you will usually escape before roll call is even over.

[@lrq6296]

Another way you can get the key in HMP offshore without getting heat is friending someone and making them beat up the guard for you

[@Sh4dow15]

I did consider if that was possible in this game but you can only do that in the first game and not in The Escapists 2

[@lrq6296]

Ah, I did not realize that

[@IdotGamin]

What about using a 2nd player

[@DespOIcito]

@@IdotGamin you could circumvent any sort of restriction or challenge if you allow another player to do all the work

[@GaulSoodman884]

Sometimes the other prisoners will naturally fight the guards, so I believe it could be possible for them to knock out the red key guard.

[@itacticlesnowman726]

as others have said you gained heat at 9:54 but the way to circumvent that is to just go when snipers are gone so it should be considered kinda beat because if you do it again you would only be wasting your time because it is possible

[@Qwerali]

This was honestly professional quality. Well edited, the music was enjoyable as background. It was a little hard to hear you over the music when you were talking, but it's very possible it's just my bad hearing at work. I'm really excited to see this channel grow, because it definitely will if you keep churning out quality like this!

[@Sh4dow15]

Thanks for the feedback! You are not the only one who had difficulty with the audio so I will see what I can do.

[@buzzco3811]

Escapists? I haven’t heard that name in years.

[@jessebint7599]

You could skip rattlesnake springs by grabbing a iron bar then going to the second floor making a hole in the wall then escaped

[@Sh4dow15]

I would not have thought of that but I will give it a try, thx!

[@bobbycrofts9241]

​@@Sh4dow15 iirc thats what the speedrun strats are

[@andreworders7305]

Doing the elaborate special escapes instead of perimeter breakouts was a lot more fun for me when I played.

[@Sh4dow15]

This is a longer, different kind of video for me so I would appreciate any feedback!

[@Gostmaster-mr4lh]

This is a great video, keep it up!

[@Banan_Man_]

How do you only have 326 subscribers? This video is made very well, and it's better than virtually every video I've seen from a youtuber under 100k subs, and better than quite a few videos I've seen from 1 mil youtubers.

[@user-hm7rg4po2h]

Channel growth doesn't happen overnight, but with consistency and patience, it will happen.

[@ordinaryindividual6246]

I love this type of content, keep it up my man's

[@Sh4dow15]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@Chappy57]

my mans voice so calming. perfect vid to watch while trying to sleep at 6pm. how does my man not have 10K subs.

[@kingdoge30010]

The escapist 3😮😮😮😮😮🤓?? Good video,loved the part when you explain the challenge,loved your edition too!

[@david_sall7961]

Amazing video, you deserve way more subs

[@Webmage101]

This would be impossible in the original, you get heat for standing slightly too close to a wall/door.

[@Sh4dow15]

I remember the first game being very unforgiving so if there was a way of doing the challenge, it will not be easy. That would not be enough to stop me from trying it though haha

[@OriFunTime]

U gained 30 heat at the end of rattlesnake springs. look at 9:54.

[@trumpet-titan4122]

I was about to say that

[@vaultechwithsoup6569]

Hat In Time music is always a good choice

[@jmatt440]

when I first saw the video, I thought it meant if you could avoid the alert level going up, but no, this is much harder

[@wolfiepop5039]

oh me too dude

[@puzzlesolverU]

I haven't watched the video yet, bit I'm just gonna say I know this will be pain. If you're even a MILIMETER away from the spot you're meant to be, boom. Heat. If you get seen looting a desk, boom. Heat. These small things that normally barely do anything, now become an instant loss.

[@user-xe9xc5lp2d]

Seeing him upgrade tools without using them first hurts xD

[@Sh4dow15]

I do use them first sometimes if I think its worth it but most of the time I just upgrade right away. I get what you mean though haha

You my friend, have extremely good taste in music

[@aaronjediknight7300]

me using this as a tutorial cuz im to lazy to search for one im on HMP offshore its so stressful oml i was wandering why i couldn't go down but i realised i cut the bottom fence so i panicked but i quickly managed to break the second fence and got down no guard saw me and i fled tysm for the strat

[@Mr.Chazwick]

This is so good! Subbed!

[@Sh4dow15]

Thanks so much!

[@Mr.Chazwick]

@@Sh4dow15 You should do DLC Prisons! Or try this in the original Escapists!

[@Mr.Chazwick]

I tried doing this on Wicked Ward DLC prison and it was really fun! Recommend it!

[@uraniummmm1]

Why am i suddenly getting a lot of escapists videos recommended i never played the game or searched for it lol

[@lefishe6101]

9:53 hello, name's heat sir.

[@sailingsential]

awesome video

[@strammylargo33wr96]

you are very good at escapism 👍

[@trexrawrrrgaming]

nice mic, its very crispy

[@Chargerburn]

At the end of rattlesnake springs he had 30 heat

[@Krisorsomething.]

Good video.

[@roninnozlo9544]

for KAPOW camp you can just pick up the desks and move them to the bathroom or bread room in the cabin

[@Catkilmikpie]

Love the escapists

[@neoject5049]

Good!

[@SentialFlame]

I remember when i started playing i maxed out my strength and soloed three guards at once and an armed guard with no weapons

[@wreckmedia]

I know this 11 months old but couldnt u just do the classic iron bar escape on rattlesnake springs?

[@Catkilmikpie]

HMP OFFSHORE - blud forgot about the helicopter 💀💀💀💀

[@Airvent2]

9:54 30 heat.

[@baldperson328]

On K.A.P.O.W you can find sugar mints in desks but it is kinda rare (from my personal experience)

[@Czarro672]

Meanwhile I didn't know you could find them *anywhere else.*

[@bendyboy7179]

I love how you didn’t just use speedrun tricks the whole time.

[@mieszkopiotrkowski1161]

9:54 u got heat🔥

[@Gamerman-lu9bs]

7:30 where to find the background music?

[@doombringer3824]

great video but is the 30 heat at the verry end of rattle snake springs un avoidable when breaching the perimeter

[@W42P]

No, he just needs to wait for night time

[@doombringer3824]

@@W42P oh ok, thanks for the reply.

[@swagarmy6771]

9:55 he has heat

[@Thatcatiscute]

You got heat in The end of rattlesnake springs.

[@daviddavidson7747]

He addressed this over a year ago making your comment a low IQ comment.

[@SnakeLordGaming-is3xe]

man this makes me question how i cant do this for a single in game day. Maybe i just need to be more sneaks

[@wolflover5667]

For HMP couldn’t you wait for a riot to happen and a guard to drop then take the key if its red?

[@hellion1201]

This is hellion approved B)

[@hellion1201]

(that means I subbed people should do too and you can be epic)

[@piglig8798]

Hard mode idea You gain dubble heat Tools have halfe hp Intelect is collected sligtly slower For transpott maps other npc like the nurses notify a cop of youre location but not any further cus that would be ro op

[@fitmotheyap]

Half tool hp and slower intellect is tedious, not hard

[@piglig8798]

Ok how bout less hp an faster gaurds

[@puppylowl5344]

Not hard enough

[@Sh4dow15]

Some interesting suggestions but most of them just make the escape take longer to do rather than making it harder

[@IdotGamin]

Cant you find mints in a desk for kapow camp

[@Sh4dow15]

Maybe I can. I usually get the mints from knocking out guards but I guess the solo escape would also be possible.

[@nickr8662]

I like the video, and I like the challenge, and I mean this as a bit of constructive criticism, could you speak up? Hard to hear you a bit when the background music swells at some point.

[@Sh4dow15]

I appreciate the feedback! I will see what I can do about the audio.

[@thenoob5143]

9:52 as he escaped there was the heat meter showed 30 heat ._.

[@terrencew8193]

You failed you gained 30 heat at end of rattle snake spring

[@Sh4dow15]

That’s true, I completely missed that! The rattlesnake springs escape should still be possible anyway but I will still retry the escape.

[@aaronjediknight7300]

but like thats unfair cuz he did nothing wrong a guard didn't see him so its not really failed either way he could retry and it would prob be done correctly

[@achmodinivswe9500]

There is sniper towers in that prison, correct? Maybe it’s because they saw him the moment he came up

[@aaronjediknight7300]

@@achmodinivswe9500 thats not even his fault lol

[@MatthewMorris6148]

0:52 Why is DanTDM there? What did he do?

[@JoshuaLiberman]

Doesn't Hot Cocoa knock out guards with zero heat?

[@Sh4dow15]

Nope. It still maxes out guard heat. I assume it registers as you attacking a guard which gives the heat, but the damage you do is extremely high which knocks them out

[@xandersoukal]

at 9:55 you gained 30 heat..

[@TheQilin1]

you got heat at the end of rattlesnake springs but i dont think its possible to dodge

[@Sh4dow15]

It is easy to dodge if I did the escape at night!

[@HippocratesI]

22:46 you had 2 heat

[@daviddavidson7747]

He addressed this at least 8 months before you commented this so you must have a super low IQ
