Xander45 Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 (edited) All banners and cool stuff by JoBot 8000 Throughout Hong Kong there are hidden vendors that sell improvements for your apartment, note that these are purely cosmetic and don't count towards any trophy. In each district you get an apartment as you progress through the story, each apartments upgrades are in their respective districts and only appear once you've progressed far enough in the story to unlock the apartment. Use the map and the descriptions below and you'll have a pimped out apartment in no time! Those are all found in the Night Market area not far from your first apartment, I just did a circuit of the area and found these easy enough. 1. Air Conditioner ($4620) - Standing next to a wall behind some stalls 2. Brand New Bed ($5000) - Inside a tented stall 3. Pet Bird ($1200) - Has a stall made up with birdcages on tables around her 4. Massive Sound System ($9550) - Down the western alley that cuts through Night Market 5. Sofa Set ($14000) - This guy is right by the waterline, the easiest way is to follow the highway all the way along and just before the turn at it's furthest east point you'll see a little turn off on the left. Once you get down turn left, and under some covers right next to the sea wearing blue overalls is our man. 6. Coffee Table and Rug ($7200) - This is an easy one to find, head to the K-Bar (on the map it's the karaoke bar in central), down the stairs is a man in a red shirt with a waistcoat. Simples. 7. Dragon Tapestry ($3000) - A man in a black suit just inside the small shopping mall area directly northeast of the words Wah Fi Storage on the map, and below the clothing store. 8. Ancient Vase ($8000) - When you reach the area shown on the map you'll need to get higher to the levels with the walkways over the road and the row of red flags. Up there you should see a building with "TorExv" written in big red letters, next to that building and directly opposite a walkway is a small gap between buildings. In there is a woman stood next to an elevator playing with her phone, that's our dealer. 9. Fish ($850) - An easy one, he's just opposite the car salesman. 10. Hot Tub ($25000) - Once you wake up after your first night in the fancy house head down the drive and look left. You should see the speech bubble straight away, if not he's across the road and a short way down the little alley. 11. Tropical Plant Service ($1200) - In the alley right next to the last salesman, as you walk down it you should see a red house on your right. Next to this house is the lady we need. 12. Idol of Guan Yu ($4000) - Where the marker is on the map above is a house that has a health shrine on the upper floor. Under the health shrine and just next to the carpark is a man flogging this. 13. Giant Movie Poster ($250) - Right next to where the giant freeway breaks into three (coming from the south).When you can see the large blue signs for North Point and Kennedy Town look to the east. Ducking down in the corner of a few shop windows is our man. 14. Strange Idol ($12000) - Head to the apothecary shop on the map, go south from there and you'll see a building with a staircase either side of it, go up the southern stairs, up there is a lady parting with a family heirloom, enjoy. 15. Awesome Pet Bird ($3000) - Down near the ports is a little market area, this stall has birdcages on it and is just west of the Massage parlour. 16. Stolen Art ($5200) - Keep heading west from the bird lady whilst looking out to sea so you can see the boats. You should see two double decker floating houses soon enough, one is pink the other is light blue. Round the back of the light blue house leaning against the wall is a man in a black suit with some dodgy artwork.

lee10561 Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 i have them but not the bird guy,where in the market is he? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xander45 Posted August 20, 2012 Author Share Posted August 20, 2012 It's actually a woman, can't remember exactly where it is in the market but she's not hidden away. You should see her from a distance, she's got a load of birdcages on the tables near her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aro52 Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 Ive found lots of stuff including a painting and set of table and chairs but i didn't take much notice of where i found them sorry. I'm pretty sure the "tablet and chairs" guy is in the K-Bar. Near the dance floor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good idea man, are you going to stick up a map at some point as well? I'm pretty sure the "tablet and chairs" guy is in the K-Bar. Near the dance floor. Yeah, I can confirm the furniture seller for the Central apartment is on the dance floor in K-bar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jwells Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 What is the purpose of upgrading your safehouse ? Will it gain you extra XP or something ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coop Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 What is the purpose of upgrading your safehouse ? Will it gain you extra XP or something ? I'm pretty sure it's purely cosmetic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wild Dog Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 Yeah there is no trophy either which is odd, you would expect one due to them being hidden. I also noticed that you can unlock all 4 hideouts straight away which is cool, just go to the parking lots and there might be one next to it. 1st apartment - north point boat house - aberdeen luxury apartment - central mansion - kennedy town Also note, the room upgrade vendors wont appear until you have been in each hideout once.

Xander45 Posted August 21, 2012 Author Share Posted August 21, 2012 (edited) I haven't even unlocked my second apartment! And Jobot that's a great idea, I'll try to get a map for it done once we've found our stuff. EDIT: It looks like I've been beaten to it by some people though http://t1.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcRtxlaqhbd5NeWBcKDcklQYtsdvb0Pvd7OSlCSnbF6YeOzIv4R2aV3CNkIE Edited August 21, 2012 by Xander45 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll try and find a high-res map and some better icons to use. EDIT: I mean, I'll help with it if you want Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wild Dog Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 Wait, so you can just walk into them without 'unlocking' them and use them like usual? yup, I was at a parking lot in kennedy town (top right of area next to sqwiggle road) and it was right next to a mansion, went up to it then the house icon appeared on my map. So I went looking for the rest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xander45 Posted August 21, 2012 Author Share Posted August 21, 2012 (edited) Found the Dragon Tapestry, it's a man in a black suit just inside the small shopping mall area directly northeast of where the zoomed in map says "Wah Fi Storage", and below the clothing store in Central.

Pokkit_ Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 Ah, glad some of you actually kept track of all this. I was planning to make a list, but since this was all purely for cosmetics and non-trophy related, I didn't. If you guys can get together and make a list and include a map, I wouldn't mind stickying this . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That'd be pretty sweet, I don't think I've had a sticky on here before (even though I think the VGM quiz should be, but that's just me ). Everyone I find from now on will be jotted down to make it as easy as possible to find these guys And hopefully Jobot can help out on the map side of things.

Moving On Posted August 22, 2012 Share Posted August 22, 2012 Ah, I'd been looking for this. The upgrades are the only thing left for me to do in the game, but I couldn't find the last few. This will definitely help... even though they don't really "do" anything for you, it's still fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kfree7 Posted August 25, 2012 Share Posted August 25, 2012 You mention that these are just cosmetic and not for a trophy. Is there no help towards game progression or fighter strength at all even without a trophy? Like you buy the bed and get better rest so you are a better fighter. Sounds nuts but yet a logical question. Just wondering if they are completely cosmetic and serve only that purpose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
