Rumour: Sleeping Dogs Studio United Front ClosingOct 18, 2016 - Rock, Paper, ShotgunRumour has it that Canadian studio United Front Games have closed down with a great suddenness.

Conta...Dystopian Crimesport: Sleeping Dogs Dev s Smash+GrabOct 4, 2016 - Rock, Paper, ShotgunSmash+Grab , the new crime ’em up from Sleeping Dogs developers United Front Games, is now out in early access. It’s team-based futuresports about gangs smashing up shops and stealing stuff while interrupting the other team’s efforts with a bit of a kicking. A bit like Sleeping Dogs, it’s big on melee combat with grapples, counters, and whatnot. Smash+Grab actually came out last week but evidently I missed it because that name makes no impact at all. … Sneak Peek Friday Sept 30: Gray and ShutterSep 30, 2016 - Community Announcementshttp://cdn.akamai.steamstatic.com/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/26077126/6abeb4d8f072a61d5d9afcf26e3d07f858deef90.png Each Friday we will showcase some work-in-progress. We’re not just working on optimization and stability - we’re working on new content too, and we want to tell you all about it! Hi guys! My name is Josh Rubenstein, and I am a designer on Smash+Grab. You’ve played 7 leaders and 13 lieutenants so far, but you may have also seen some portraits of upcoming leaders and lieutenants. Today I’m here to talk to you and show you a little more about them. http://cdn.akamai.steamstatic.com/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/26077126/afef339ee8ea0d6c39247bb49a1603a893f27085.jpg This is Gray. He’s a heavy leader on the Dappers. Gray was once the head of security in Newbright, so his abilities are all about security and keeping the peace. For example, he has an ability called Screamer Sentry that lays down a trap in the form of a sentry device. When triggered, this trap emits a debilitating screech. If there’s a store nearby, the metal shutters close temporarily too, so that it can’t be looted or attacked for a while. I’m sure you can think of some devious ways to use this ability to deny an important store to an enemy! http://cdn.akamai.steamstatic.com/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/26077126/2d91ccbc5d7e6c7632e19f1a71234c3c3816cea4.jpg This is Shutter. She’s a ranged lieutenant on the Dappers, and our first ranged female character. We’ll get into the details of their backstory a bit more in the future, but Shutter and Grey became trusted partners by chance during a crisis situation in Newbright. Shutter has a handheld flash device that can blind enemies in a cone shaped area. Blinded players get a flashed screen effect, and blinded AI characters are weakened too. I’m excited to see what dirty tricks leaders can get away with during the few seconds that an enemy is blinded by Shutter! Gray and Shutter are in development now, and we’ll be showing off their abilities and attacks a little more when they’re closer to being ready. Thanks for checking out this post, and see you online! Regarding Performance: Message From The DevsSep 29, 2016 - Community Announcementshttp://cdn.akamai.steamstatic.com/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/26077126/ecd3488430c1613418308789149bb794275dead9.jpg We know that some of you are experiencing performance problems with the game. Firstly, we want to assure you that we are actively working on improving the experience for everyone. This is a top priority for us. A few important things to note: Many people are trying to run the game on systems below our Minimum Spec. This is especially true for the CPU. If you need to see how your CPU stacks up against our Minimum Spec (Intel i3-3220), you can use the following site: https://www.cpubenchmark.net/ The video memory of your graphics card is important. You should have a card with at least 1GB of dedicated video memory (VRAM). There are also tips and tricks posted in the steam forums. A great place to look for info is in our FAQ & Top Known Issues post. If you are above Minimum Spec and still experiencing issues, please don’t hesitate to reach out to us and we will do everything we can to help you resolve the problem. We will be releasing patches over the coming weeks to address these issues, along with other exciting updates! The game is in Early Access, and we are working very hard to fix issues people are experiencing.

We loved seeing Smash+Grab in your hands for the first time. The Closed Beta was important, because we gained a lot of data from our analytics, and feedback from you, which helped us make decisions around our goals for our Early Access Launch. Here are just a few examples of what we’ve been busy working on for Launch: Optimizations to reduce load times, reduce disconnections and crashes, and lower our Minimum System Requirements. Leader and Lieutenant gameplay balancing and tuning. Reducing stunlocks in combat. A first pass of a new feature called Crew Commands, which is where you can direct your AI crew to perform a certain action temporarily (Attack, Loot, or Follow). Dozens of new vanity items. New grapple animation variants. A borderless window option for streamers. General bug-fixing and tuning. We have not yet announced a date for our Early Access Launch, but it will be later this month. Our discount Early Access Launch price will be around $20 USD. You can wishlist Smash+Grab on Steam now, and stay tuned to our social channels below for more info on our Early Access Launch!

We've had fun, we've learned a lot, we've made many incremental improvements and some solid progress on optimization, thanks to you. It's also been killer fun watching you smash it up against one another - our devs have been playing in many of the games with you, and we've had our eyes glued to the streams too! As the Beta Weekend has progressed we've seen an issue where some players are unable to load into (or immediately dropped from) matches. You've told us that this is resulting in widespread AI in matches and, ultimately, a less fun game experience for everyone involved. This issue is manifesting because some PC setups does not meet our current Beta Minimum System Requirements. We will be extending our Beta period for two more days, until Tuesday September 13th, 10pm PDT, for players whose PC setup meets our Beta Minimum System Requirements. This is so we can continue to gather data to help us improve the game, while still making progress on optimizations. Here's how this will work: Beginning at Sunday 10pm PDT (the end of the original Beta period), the game will now detect whether or not a player's PC setup meets the current Beta Minimum System Requirements. If not, the player will be informed that their system is below the Beta Minimum System Requirements, and will be unable to progress for the Extended Beta period. This helps protect the community in the Extended Beta period from experiencing unbalanced games where a team member or enemy is unable to participate due to having a system that is not adequate for playing Smash+Grab at this time. We are actively working on optimizing the game to perform well on a wider range of CPUs and GPUs, as Smash+Grab is quite taxing on both. We want you to know that it is a priority for us to bring down the Minimum System Requirements so that as many players can enjoy the game as possible. Expect updates on this soon! Thank you to all of you for playing the game during our Beta Weekend, and for your enthusiasm and patience as we improve Smash+Grab, which is after all why we are doing this Beta with you!
