Been playing this for a good hour now, really enjoying it so far. Annoying that the most recent patch seems to have messed up the graphics settings. Also getting very grainy/liney looking shadows during cutscenes and a strange white glow around the characters. Other than that it looks very nice.

EDIT: the shadow issue is also during gameplay
 
I am getting around a average of around 70 fps with everything on extream apart from aa which is on high

Its not using my sli to the max though so i hope drivers will fix that at a later date
 
yep i cant change any graphics options either.

played a little bit and im enjoying it so far, whats with the weird shaking camera while driving?

yea that camera shake is annoying as hell and seems to be hated by all so if the devs listen hopefully they will add it as an option we can disable

EDIT: new patch is imminent within the next few hours

Sleeping Dogs version 1.3 update tonight!
In anticipation of the European launch of Sleeping Dogs and in response to some of the feedback generated by the PC gamers on the forum we’ve prepared a patch that aims to improve some PC-specific features as well as fix some bugs that have been reported by the community. The full list of changes is below:

Improvements & Bug Fixes
• Fixed several bugs where NPCs would not path through doors properly – this corrects the issue where Naz stops running in the first mission of the game
• Added HD Textures for UI screens (only available with the free HD Texture Pack DLC installed)
• Improvements made to reduce the frequency of erroneous “don’t lose your target” warnings in missions where you are chasing an NPC
• Significant improvements to mouse support on various options screens
• New Keyboard/Mouse option which makes the keyboard & mouse the only input devices even if a controller is connected
• Several minor text bugs corrected
• Fixed an issue where mouse clicks would sometimes be ignored in the UI
• Fixed the keyboard and mouse camera controls in the Phone Tracing minigame

bit crappy patch notes but atleast there listening to people complaining about issues on their forum

mouse for me is sensitive as hell lol almost looks like my game stutters at times but it was just mouse movement.

I think I saw an option for it but I never touched it since until now there wasnt much gun action

Yeah the mouse is a bit dodgy at times, especially driving, goes all over the place, nice to see some gun action though, played it for 3 hours and not had any yet apart from a police mini-mission thing, but I've done a few side missions which were pretty cool, had to drive a womans car into a river for her so she could claim insurance, pretty funny.
 
What a great game and it looks very nice just been driving around lock picking and stealing loot and doing few missions.

The fighting mechanic are great can be a little clunky at times i love how ambulance turns up and bloke said "this guy is dead on arrival" after i smashed him with iron pipe. :D

The little touches in the game make it for me when i stole a taxi someone tried to get in and Wei goes "Do i look like a taxi driver to you" lol :D

I didn't realise what sort of game this was when I saw the preorder for it on Steam a couple of weeks ago, I thought it was some sort of tycoon game, but I only looked at the artwork and price :o

Looks like something I may be buying instead of CS:GO, it looks pretty good, instantly reminded me of True Crime.
