“睡狗”标竿

As we mentioned, Sleeping Dogs is set in the metropolis of Hong Kong. This rarely used place in PC games makes for the ideal setting of an adult gangster story. The detailed screenshots prove that the developer has put proper effort in the implementation of the game.

Shortly after the start, the main character strolls through a densely populated shopping street, on which a sort of street festival is taking place. Here lavishly decorated stands alternate with bright neon signs. The colorful reflections on the wet pavement give the scene a great lighting effect. It's a shame that the richness decreases noticeably in some backyards and side rooms. The linear Max Payne 3 achieves a higher quality here. Nonetheless, the action title scores points with a successful atmosphere. The cool soundtrack and professional (English) voice-over do the rest to put the player under the spell.

But who is actually personified in Sleeping Dogs? The gamer steps in the shoes of Wei Shen, a – as we soon discover – cunning undercover cop. The goal: The infiltration of the Triad “Sun On Yee”. In the early stages, the leader Winston Chu has problems with “Dogeye”, who wants to claim a part of the territory for himself.

正如我们提到的，“睡狗”在香港的大都市。在这种情况很少使用的PC游戏使一个成年人的黑帮故事的理想场所。详细的截图证明在执行游戏开发者已经把适当的努力。

开始后不久，主角漫步在一个人口密集的购物街，街头艺术节的一种考虑的地方。这里装饰华丽，随时交替着明亮的霓虹灯。花花绿绿的，映在湿漉漉的人行道上赋予场景中的一个伟大的照明效果。这是一个耻辱的丰富性明显降低一些的后院和侧房。线性马克思佩恩3实现了更高的质量，在这里。然而，动作游戏的得分点，一个成功的气氛。凉爽的配乐和专业（英文）语音的蛊惑下，其余的将播放器。

但谁是真正的人格化，在睡觉的狗吗？玩家步骤 - 因为我们很快就会发现 - 在鞋的沉伟，狡猾的卧底。我们的目标：渗透在黑社会的日子“孙安仪”。在早期阶段，领导者徐嘉慎与“Dogeye”，谁也不愿意为自己的领土要求部分有问题。

After several intro videos, a heated pursuit and a couple of dialogs, things get quickly to the point – in the true sense of the word. Wei Shen fights the other gang members and so, soon learns the fight moves/controls. The tough confrontations do have a certain esthetic. The movement is usually quite smooth and generally the fights have a beautiful choreography. Of course one could argue about the brutal finishing moves (in Germany the title will arrive censored), which are sometimes certainly borderline. 

Since the fights feel somewhat slower than in other action hits such as Darksiders II or Batman: Arkham City, we can imagine that the melee battles will get tiresome after some time and develop a repetitive nature.

经过多次的介绍视频，一个加热的追求和一对夫妇的对话，事情得到迅速的点 - 在真正意义上的字。沉伟其他团伙成员的战斗，所以，很快就学会了打移动/控制。艰难的对抗有一定的审美。运动通常是比较顺利的，和一般的战斗有一个美丽的编排。当然，人们可以说的残忍的终结技（在德国的标题将抵达审查），有时是肯定的边缘。

由于比其他的行动点击，如暗黑血统II或蝙蝠侠：阿甘之城的战斗感觉有点慢，我们可以想像，近战的战斗将获得烦人的一段时间后，重复的性质。

The role-playing part seems to further motivate in the long term. Sleeping Dogs contains various primary and side missions, which emphasize one or the other gameplay elements. At the end there is a brief rating, which informs the player of their skills and progress. In addition to the traditional rewards (money, items, etc.) the player receives experience points in specific categories (for example Triad or Cop). At a level-up, new skills and upgrades await the player. Fashionable gamers can even clothe the main character. The range extends from shoes through necklaces to headgear.

角色扮演部分似乎在长期进一步推动。 “睡狗”包含了各种主要和支线任务，其中强调的一个或其他的游戏元素。结束时，有一个短暂的评级，通知他们的技能和进步的球员。除了传统的回报（金钱，物品等）的玩家获得经验点，在特定的类别（例如三合会或警察）。在等待着玩家的水平，新的技能和升级。时尚的玩家甚至可以衣食的主要特征。范围从鞋，项链头饰。

In order to not run unnecessarily through the areas, the main character has a mobile phone, which lists contacts, messages, and police reports, among other things. Consequently, the most important is the garage, which is used to store an owned vehicle. While we are on the subject of vehicles: The wheels are controlled with the mouse and keyboard, but often inaccurately. Another weakness is the sub-optimal and sometimes wobbly camera.

为了不运行不必要通过的地区，主要的字符有手机，其中列出了联系人，邮件，和警方的报告，其中包括。因此，最重要的是，车库，这是用来存储一个自备车辆。虽然我们对车辆的主题：轮子是用鼠标和键盘控制，但往往不准确。另一个弱点是次优的，有时颤抖的摄像头。

For a multi-platform title, Sleeping Dogs offers a surprisingly high number of settings. We ran our benchmark with the four presets; Low, Medium, High, and Extreme, which are located in the main menu, under the Display Options. In addition to the brightness, you can also adjust the size of the interface and the resolution. Full-screen mode and the 3D mode can also be (de)activated.

对于一个多平台的标题，睡觉的狗提供了一个高得惊人的数字设置。我们跑了的4个预置位;低，中，高和极端，这是坐落在主菜单中，我们的基准下的显示选项。除了亮度，也可以调节的接口的大小和分辨率。全萤幕模式和3D模式下也可以的（de）激活。

Even more options can be found in the advanced graphics menu. Thus the player can, among others, change the V-Sync, the hardware-hungry anti-aliasing, the motion blur, the shadow quality, and the world density. The high-resolution textures were unfortunately not available for download at the time of this review – at least not in Germany (Steam error message).

先进的图形菜单可以找到更多的选择。因此，玩家可以在其他，改变V-同步，硬件饿了抗锯齿，运动模糊，阴影的质量，和世界上密度。高解析度的纹理遗憾的是不提供下载在本次审查 - 至少在德国（蒸汽的错误消息）。

Technically, Sleeping Dogs is still a bit unpolished. A change in the settings often leads to errors and crashes. The title works rather poorly with NVIDIA GPUs. Despite the latest Beta drivers (ForceWare 304.79) the game sometime hung when starting up or loading.

从技术上讲，睡觉的狗仍然是一个有点糙米。设置的改变往往会导致错误和崩溃。表现欠佳，与NVIDIA GPU（图形处理器）的标题。尽管最新的Beta版驱动程序（的ForceWare304.79）游戏的某个时候挂在启动时或加载。

Otherwise the engine is relatively good - we were particularly impressed by the fancy character models and the high-quality lighting. Even at medium details, the game is properly enjoyable.

Although you can barely notice the difference between high and ultra settings, the resource consumption increases significantly. As our benchmarks show, for the Extreme settings you would need an absolutely top of the line desktop GPU (or SLI respectively CrossFire). At low settings, the game is suited even for low-end graphics cards, but the reduced effects diminish the atmosphere considerably.

否则，该发动机是比较好的 - 我们留下了特别深刻的印象花哨的角色模型和高品质的照明。即使是在游戏中的细节，适当的愉快。

虽然可以勉强注意到高，超之间的差异，资源消耗增加显着。作为我们的基准测试表明，极端的设置，那么你需要一个绝对是顶级的行台式机GPU（或SLI交火）。在低设置，游戏甚至适合低端图形卡，但减少的影响大大减少大气中。

While the combination of maximum details and 1920x1080 pixels is reserved only for luxury GPUs such as the GeForce GTX 680 or the Radeon HD 7970 (Desktop!), 1600x900 pixels and high details are also playable with a mobile high-end card (for example GTX 675M). For 1366x768 pixels the GeForce GTX 660M or higher should suffice. The middle preset requires an all-rounder such as the GeForce GT 630M or the Radeon HD 7660G.

Entry-level GPUs on the level of the Intel HD Graphics 4000 will have to be satisfied with lower details and greatly reduced resolution (1024x768) – and the game still stutters sometimes.

虽然最大的细节和1920×1080像素的组合，只保留豪华的GPU，如GeForce®（精视™）GTX680的Radeon HD，7970（Desktop!），1600×900像素，高细节也与移动的高端卡（例如GTX播放6.75亿）。对于1366×768像素的GeForce®（精视™）GTX660M或更高版本就足够了。中间的预设需要一个多方面的GeForce GT 630M或Radeon HD7660G的。

入门级GPU（图形处理器）的英特尔HD Graphics4000的水平必须满足较低的详细信息，大大降低了分辨率（1024×768） - 游戏仍然断断续续，有时。

If you like open-world titles in the style of GTA, you should definitely give the Hong Kong adventure a chance. Sleeping Dogs is gorgeous and provides a solid mix of elements from various genres. Thanks to familiar key strokes you can quickly immerse yourself in the unfamiliar scenario. Although, you should not expect a new action reference, since the game does not come even close to perfection.

如果你喜欢开放的世界冠军，在GTA的风格，你一定要给予香港冒险的机会。 “睡狗”是华丽，并提供了一个坚实的各种流派的元素组合。熟悉的键击，你可以迅速地沉浸在自己不熟悉的情况下。虽然，你不应该期待一个新的行动的参考，因为游戏不来，甚至接近完美。
