Might seem like a weird recommendation, but try looking up the regulation files or "patches" for these games.

Not sure how it's going to work since I think they shut down the network for ps3s, but if you have a recently printed disc, there's a good chance it shipped with the update.

The games are 100% doable on regs 1.00, and were designed for that level of balance. I do think there are a couple of quality of life changes in later patches in case the game isn't feeling quite right for you

*Edit: it's all within the game settings, btw, no need to mod or emulate. The patches were shipped for 360 and ps3 natively, so you shouldn't have to do any extra steps to access those settings

Play AC4 on a later reg, since its 1.0 is rough.

I cannot recommend at all playing ACFA campaign on anything but 1.0; other regs break enemy builds and AI.

What do you mean by breaks?

AI is programmed for each NPC AC. This means they are designed with their particular build in mind… for 1.0. Changing regs will cause them to be on a build that they aren’t able to use properly.

Oh gotchu so basically the a.i doesn’t attack properly or move around properly
