Okay, I'm running across a very annoying bug. What does the game want me to do during a car chase? I'm on the wedding cake level and I swear to God that is the fastest loving van I have ever seen in my life. But the part that kills me is that I can be ramming the little bitch and the "Don't Lose the Target" timer still counts down to zero. I want to love this game so much....

Aphrodite posted:It wants you to hijack it. I can't get close enough in 30 seconds. The "Don't Lose the Target" timer does not stop, and I was once in ramming distance to the cake van. FakeEdit: loving BOLLOCKS. I somehow managed to make the hijack in 30 seconds and the TIMER STILL FAILED ME.

I wish everyone had 17,000 times more lines. Everyone should be talking all the time like we just broke this technology. It would also be nice if Hong Kong had a truly suffocating population density. The traffic seems especially light.

Dan Sochan, United Front producer, said himself that the DLCs will present "all the amazing stuff we didn't have time to do." I hope they do well enough to really extend the game. I do wonder what they left on the cutting floor, so to speak. Nightmare on North Point looks fun, but it's clearly not a part of the original story development.

The most disappointing part of the DLC was that Dogeyes' voice actor was replaced with someone generic. I really hope they don't do this with future DLCs.

GANDHITRON posted:I'm having a lot of fun with this game, but does anyone else think the radios work a little weird? Whenever I exit and re-enter a car, it'll switch to a predetermined station and song and I have to switch back to what I was listening to previously, which usually causes the game to load a different song. It's weird to explain, but annoying as hell. I've done a little bit of searching, but I couldn't find anything that fixes this. I think the radio only does this during missions. It loads up or restarts the same song specifically chosen for that mission's driving segment. Outside of missions, the radio should behave normally.

Blast of Confetti posted:Do I just need to find more health shrines and never let my buffs fall off, or what? Leveling up in general will make you a more effective fighter. Health helps a lot, obviously, and the next biggest help would probably come from the jade statues. Your master will teach you some pretty devastating moves that will also boost your face meter fast.

Unlucky7 posted:Huh, I thought that they would each get a subplot after the initial date. Not that I do romances in games, but a little disappointing. I'm with you. Overall I felt like the game just teased me with the highlights of its story, and then left a bunch of follow-up ideas/missions/plots on the cutting floor. Shame, shame, I want more Sleeping Dogs!

It's the classic Fahrenheit problem of compressing too much plot in too little time. I wish SA had a United Front insider like we have in Ropekid so someone can talk to us about all the decisions, especially hard decisions, they had to make before getting Sleeping Dogs out the door. My suspicion is that this sudden ramping up of the plot pacing was a choice made under some deadline duress.

Do you have a link to that blog? I hope he updates regularly. I wonder if a game developer would ever want to release a kind of Director's Cut DLC that restored the stuff they had to cut. I've enjoyed playing as Wei Shen, vampire hunter, kung-fu master and one-man PTU team, but I wouldn't mind just some more vanilla Shen as well. I could see how this kind of DLC would rub some people the wrong way though, as it would be content that really should have been in the final product and would generally just set a bad precedent for the company and games in general.

The only reason to postpone the Zodiac is that the fights can be tough, and they do not scale to Wei's levels. If you're getting creamed too much, I thiiink you can go back to the main island and beef up any time. Oh, Zodiac is also not totally fitting with the continuity of the main story, if that's important to you.

precision posted:Maybe people were just that turned off by having to drive on "the wrong" side of the road. If this is a reason any North American chose not to play Sleeping Dogs, I want to punch them in the nutters. That the setting wasn't another generic American big city was why I was so charmed by Sleeping Dogs. Hear some different music, see some different architecture, drive on the other side and partake in the great pan-Asian experience of subsisting entirely on a diet of street vendor foods. Meanwhile, GTA V is taking place in San Andreas. I appreciate variations on a theme, but we've been here twice already!

monster on a stick posted:- I get that food/drinks are buffs, and they last some period of time (end of the day or until I die/arrested/something), should I just always be buying buffs whenever they are convenient? Listen to what the game is telling you. A man without a pork bun in his hand can never be a whole man. Are you a whole man, Wei Shen?

If you haven't tried the drunken master Wei Shen at least once, you haven't really played as Wei Shen. Also brutal taser cop Wei Shen. Aie me, this game. It is way too short, it should have been roughly two hundred times longer.

Everyone should play CK2 for at least a couple hours, as a history lesson in why feudalism is so nutty. I've also been following the development of Unrest, an RPG set in ancient India. It's looking pretty unorthodox in setting and gameplay; I can't wait to get my hands on it.

That is possible, and definitely a neat, subversive reading of the story and Wei's character. Sleeping Dogs, however, is still a story about a man who found a reason to be angry from the death of his sister. edit: And that reading is also Dogeyes's take on the situation.
