[Sleeping Dogs] You slut! You dishonor our family!
Monkeythumbz, tell your team to turn on Steam Cloud support. You guys are already deeply steam works integrated, this should be simple
Good idea!
No. Just no. Stop it. You are making all the other studios look bad. Stop being awesome.

The best thing about breaking some dudes knee is that it stuns them so you can soccer kick them right in the face.
I just started this up last night and the fighting is mostly really easy, but still extremely satisfying. It becomes less "can I beat these guys" because the answer is basically always yes, and more "how can I make beating these guys more awesome"
The combat getsmuch more tactical later when heavies, grapplers and knife thugs are introduced.
I've seen all of them so far, but really heavies and knife dudes are just about counterattacking, and grapplers go down really fast to striking attacks. Though to be fair the grapplers are the ones that have damaged me the most out of anyone. (I assume by heavy you mean the bruisers or whatever the game called them that can't have attacks interrupted)

I'm reinstalling Sleepy Dogs right now (though I lost my 100% save to the ravages of not having Cloud Sync GUYS) but was the awesome kidnapper suit ever added to the wardrobe? The black shirt suit you get from doing the kidnapper undercover missions?
As far as I could see, there was no way to create it from any custom clothing and it wouldn't get saved as an outfit either.
I would just like to add that I bought this game yesterday on a Steam sale and despite only meeting the minimum requirements it looks and runs fantastic on my computer.
It is also a really good game!
Quick question, is there an easier way to switch targets in the midst of combat? I have been playing on kbam and it's sometimes a little tricky to switch to the next threat after I have stunned or knocked a dude over.
Would this be more easily accomplished playing on a controller?

Mousewheel up and down switches targets if I remember correctly.

I'm very glad I got this game on the steam sale, I'm surprised how smooth it plays! So far I noticed that the combat can be quite tricky if you don't find a good rhythm in the beginning of the fight, but once you get in a few upgrades, it seems to be getting easier (In a "Oh, I see what I did wrong there when I died" sense).
Btw, I beat this game last weekend. I could not put it down. I believe I beat it near 100% completion (I can't get past the Enduro race) in less than three days of hardcore playing.
I liked the Nightmare in North Point DLC, but the Zodiac Tournament was awesome. I loved it.
I am also proud that I completed it when the game warned me not to due to lack of skills.

Nah. The game controls pretty great with kbm, and folk were reporting problems switching back and forth. A controller isn't worth dealing with that hassle.

Is anybody else having trouble with the drug busts? Any time firearms get involved, I get really boned, really fast. As I take out the initial crop of thugs, new ones spawn right behind me and shoot me until I am dead. What am I doing wrong?

It doesn't sound like you're driving a heavy vehicle onto the scene, mowing down a guy with a gun and grabbing that gun and using it?
I stumbled upon my first drug bust under an overpass. Had to swim to a sewage outflow or something like that. Then I got shot to death. So...are there any particularly aquatic heavy vehicles?

Boats are usually fine. Jump out before you get to the bust, take cover and take a few shots. Or rush in, tackle a dude for his gun, then take cover.
Beware reinforcements.
That was actually one of my few complaints about the game, how in those waterway areas reinforcements would just pretty much spawn on top of you if you were still at that corner (which I usually was).
So I've been able to get rid of all the DLC except the Just Cause 2 outfit. Anyone know what the file name is on that one so I can kill it?
I may be wrong, but that one may not be DLC so much as an unlock for having a Just Cause 2 save on the hard drive. It just gives you the outfit and since it's in a part of the wardrobe away from exp boosting clothing, you won't be seeing it much.

Just bought the PS3 version last week, just because
Did they patch the shaky cam while driving or am I just imagining things?
If so, bravo. That was my one big complaint about the game
Then you learn the skill so you can just take their knife and stab them in the face with it.

But yes, it is definitely more about being awesome and that is plenty fine with me.

I'm really enjoying the combat, I'm finding it similar to Batman, not quite as smooth in places but a lot more varied and fun.

That said, you should try a controller. Best for combat and driving, and there's not enough shooting to make using kbam worth it.
But if he doesn't have one, then it's not worth it.
I personally love playing with a gamepad.
I didn't mean to throw him over the railing to a 50 foot drop...
But that has become my new favorite way to dispatch enemies.
Is there a point in the game where you keep a gun or are the only ones you have access to from disarming enemies?

Also: So, bought the Monkey King pack... and it has not unlocked on my file. Anyone else have this issue?
No, you never get to just have one.
I had the same problem. Bought all the DLC and realized after starting that I was level 8 already. Here's the page I used to fix that.

YMMV, but renaming the specific files mentioned there removed the "Top Dog" DLC's, and let me experience levelling up naturally.

Beware reinforcements.
Always bring a car to a gun fight.
Have you set it to controller only in the options?
Also, which DLCs can I safely leave in the game? Does anyone know the file name of Zodiac Tournament and Nightmare at North Point?
