Jack of Hearts posted:Except for that one time with the sex dungeon, where by the time the cops got there all the girls had escaped, while lots of 18K had been shot in the face. I literally have no idea how Teng managed to round up the rest of the gang based on that, but regardless, there's like a dozen-plus dead bodies to ignore. Teng is a decent woman, but in a HK dominated by triads, she has an unusually high tolerance for murder by Western standards. HKPD transplanted to LA would be The Shield but much, much worse. Hong Kong has like thirty murders a year IRL. That's a couple of trips to the energy drink store for wei shen.

Hopefully they'll have a go at another story-based game, although the franchise might've gone cold while they were dicking around with this MMO crap.

Lol I don't know if they were forced to close up shop unexpectedly but I like to believe they weren't and when I was bothering them about female playable characters and they said there'd be news soon this is what they meant

Hey guys, just bought this on the PS4 sale. I see that it had a billion different little DLC packs -- how well is that actually incorporated into the game?

It depends if it's the Definitive Edition/Director's Cut. The original release just had the DLC shoved in there at little quest markers or dumped in your inventory. The re-release had it actually incorporated

It's the "Definitive Edition". What about the all the costumes? Can I just run and equip them at some point?

It's certainly got some noticeable frame drops, but those didn't ruin the experience or anything. Not for me at least, your mileage may vary.

Fuzz posted:Didn't the PC Definitive Edition have lovely performance? The only Anti Aliasing options are FXAA which blurs the image and SSAA which increases the strain on your GPU significantly since it renders the image at a higher resolution and then downscales it so it can be displayed on your monitor. That was the biggest cause of performance issues with the PC port.

It had more traffic, pedestrians and volumetric fog than the vanilla game, so it required beefier hardware to run at a locked 60 fps. The PS4 version doesn't run anywhere near a locked 60 fps, but it does at least look as good as the PC version at max settings. edit: oh yeah the PC version had the AA thing too

Sleeping Dogs has a bizarre glitch where there's a huge rear end screen tear on Windows 10 unless you enable Steam's fps counter. I have no idea why this happens.

Hey, how do I buy/unlock the Muay Thai and MMA outfits? I read that it came with the Tournament DLC(that came with my definitive) but I don't know where to buy it. Do I have to play through that first? I'm still pretty early in the game but I found the stand that sells the other "Legendary Outfits" bu it's not listed there.

I recently re-played it. Still holds up well but I noticed how badly disjointed the plot is on my last play through.

You can tell how patchwork it gets from, I want to to say the last third onward - the Triad's politics are hugely accelerated, characters start dropping in and out like crazy, and I always like pointing out how Big Smile Lee literally does not get a single line of dialogue until he betrays everyone.

I dunno, this bump is good timing. I just started playing Definitive Edition for my replay (because I played regular SD first). It's still so good, random as some of the characters are (I don't disagree about the plot, and sometimes I'm like who is Conroy and/or Duke because only one of them gets a characterization, so why are there two hulking goons in Winston's crew) but you know, I just go with it. It all works as a whole. It's really drat strong even if some bits are a little weak. now that said, in Definitive, when the heck do I unlock Wheels of Fury? Want that car.

Yeah, the first act is absolutely fantastic and the second is a really good follow up, but the third doesn't feel as tight. It's still one of my absolute favorite games, but the last act feels like there are parts missing.

monster on a stick posted:Also the "girlfriend" segments were obviously chopped to pieces. Yeah, you can almost picture the design document in your head where a good chunk of that functionality was ripped out. Might have been less noticeable if they'd gated all of the rewards after a fight or something, for how half-baked they are. I still haven't bought Definitive Edition, is it noticeably improved or just slightly more polished?
