How To Stop Assassins Creed From Freezing And The Frame Rate Issues On The PS3

There seems to be an awful lot of people having problems with Assassins Creed, freezing and frame rate issues, well there is a fix you'll be glad to know, and its an easy one, all you have to do is disable the information board, press triangle on it and disable it and these problems should go away. Also do not sign into the psn network

DrPirate6021d ago

I'm approving this, not because it's official, it's not.

I've done this from the beginning, and the Assassin's Creed experience for me has been frame smooth, and lockup-free. I'll attest to the fact that this works.

Panthers6021d ago

Another way to prevent this is to not buy Assassins Creed and play Uncharted instead.

Joecrazy6021d ago

This is my setup from day 1...but it did lock up once on me..I was kill by a guard, and while I was at the loading screen, where you can move around, and all I can do is move around. I was at that loading screen for about 5 min and nothing happen. So I hit the ps button try to quit the game, then it give me 3 beep then restart the systm..

ActionBastard6021d ago

I've been called flat out a liar when discussing AC with buddies and how I've had no framerate issues and only 1 screen freeze. Now this pops up and I can't help but be skeptical, yet hopeful. I disabled the info bar day one, simply because I found little use currently for it. My wifi router has been down and I haven't been able to sign into PSN the entire time I've played AC. Could this be? Hell, it would explain a lot. Still won't help the repetitive gameplay and all around "meh" while playing.

Eagle_CFC6021d ago

been saying this since Friday, I've only played AC offline as it has no online features (my Mrs was out Friday/Sat so I left the router off and just played AC). I had lots of issues. Froze 3 times, lost objectives, graphic glitches, screentear, very annoying! I took it back in the end, wa snot by sort of game anyway, did not get any thrill/fun from it. I did think it was very atmospheric though.

stevenhiggster6021d ago

I turned it off as soon as I saw it after the update, it is possibly the most pointless thing in the world, all the news is weeks old!! My advice would always be to dissable it anyway, whether you wanna play AC or not, which I dont btw.

so far so good great looking game and dont forget to stop and smell the olive trees.

coolmatrix6021d ago

Everyone who buys a multi-platform game, you get what you paid for. There is a reason McDonalds only makes BigMacs and does not make the Whopper!

Quality control!

Many gamers bought into the idea that developers need to make multi-platform to reach more people. What a joke?

I wonder if McDonalds need to make Whoppers to reach more people.

A sucker is born every second and now he loses $59.99 to boot!

gamesR4fun6021d ago

damn got the freeze again with it disabled still only the second one so far...
Great game otherwise

@ the one bubble dude Multiplats are bad now? So what COD4 shoulda been exclusive?! Ya right if anything we should be pushing them to allow more cross platform online gaming.

ChibiSelz6021d ago

i knew this already and people disagreed with me its in my old post >>
but u dont have to sign out of psn myns fine with it on

therealwillie6021d ago

i knocked off the information board first and it paused about 5 minutes into the game, so then i signed out and ive had no problems since then

ravinash6021d ago

However i never have the news tag thing running, and so far I just had the game freeze up on me once and that was after a hugh fight and half the city running after me.

aiphanes6021d ago

I might just have to check out this game then...

WilliamRLBaker6021d ago

1.Stop pissing in your ps3! that will instantly stop these issues.
2.STop pissing in ur 360, or puting it in a box with no holes with instantly stop these issues.

I've played both versions and never got a single problem, people must be doing weird stuff with their systems.

drewdrakes6021d ago

Hey, stop being a jerk. I have the 360 version and take care of my 360. Never RROD'd or anything. But i have had frame rate issues. All i had to do was exit the world to the animus and re-enter and i was perfect. Your post makes it seem like that would be my fault.

WilliamRLBaker6021d ago (Edited 6021d ago )

ummm yeah, and you dont own a brain...But guess what I do own a ps3:)

""If I wanted a piece of **** for my living room, I would go **** one out.""

from your profile, and pretty much why we can say your opinion doesn't count when it comes to games.

And as well, Its not my fault you had problems, But I've purchased the 360 version and rented the ps3 version and neither had a problem for me.

P.S: you will get proof shortly, once i get the picture developed since I dont own an digital camera.

DJ6021d ago

There's plenty of photos lying around google, and one or two people on this site have actually taken photos with someone else's systems, claiming it to be their own...

rofldings6021d ago (Edited 6021d ago )

Nah, you don't own a PS3.

"P.S: you will get proof shortly, once i get the picture developed since I dont own an digital camera."

More like google up an image, amirite? In any case, if you do own one, add me on PSN and I'll give you a bubble ... though it'll have to wait since I took a bubble away from another thread, where you were acting like an xbot.

rofldings6021d ago

exactly 12 hours later - no psn invite.

you don't own a ps3.

Can We Finally Admit Assassin's Creed 3 Deserves an Apology?

AC3 was released during a turbulent transition period for Ubisoft and the Assassin's Creed series. It ventured into uncharted territory, narratively and mechanically, which caused it to receive mixed reviews. At its core, though, it's a damn good stealth game.

isarai215d ago

Nope, I hated 3, connar was bland, literally the most flat character in the entire game. Not to mention to myriad of bugs, camera issues, and that annoying thing where he automatically ditches his weapon you payed for for the sake of a cool finishing move forcing you to trek back to your base after almost every encounter just to re-equip your own weapon. It just didn't work as fluidly as the others like 2 and 4

Samonuske215d ago

The series peaked at AC3 for me. It’s been my favourite in the series. Connor will always be one of my favourite video game protagonists.

Becuzisaid215d ago

No. Game was BORING. Connor was really dull. Environments, while impressive, because of the geographic location and time period were not really exciting to be in. I would love some kind of game set in there colonial American time period, but a game like AC that back then centered around parkour and vertical traversal really didn't fit those environments.

-Foxtrot215d ago

Nope

There was a lot of issues but mine is how they handled the war

They told us Connor was not going to get involved, that the war was more of a background setting for the real story and it wasn’t going to be one sided

They lied, even the cinematic E3 trailer showed Connor emerge from the Colonist side and slaughter the red coats to get to his target, inspiring the Colonists to fight back

I just thought it would have made more sense lore wise that the red coats were mostly compiled of Assassins fighting the Colonist templars who wanted to take the new world for themselves.

Since the Red coats lost the war, it would then explain how the Templars started to gain the upper hand and how on the future the assassins were mostly killed off and the Templar’s had pretty much taken over everything.

Instead it just felt like they didn’t want to p*** off the American audience

Even Haytham was cool, he should have been an Assassin through and through and should have been the main lead.

toxic-inferno215d ago

The game even seems to lack the humour of the other games. It almost seems as though the idea of even slightly making fun of American history wouldn't be acceptable.

-Foxtrot215d ago

Exactly

It just felt super safe

“Better not make the colonists look super bad incase people boycott our game”

jeromeface214d ago

someone missed the whole point

-Foxtrot214d ago

There was literally no point

What I've just said above would at least make sense lore wise and why the Assassins start to loose their war, die off and how the Templars are in control in the future of almost everything....what they did was just, pointless

CrimsonWing69215d ago

I’m one one of those weird people that liked Ass Creed 3, but to be fair I never got around to finishing it.

GhostScholar226d ago (Edited 226d ago )

I disagree that max is unlikable. Chloe is infinitely more unlikable in my opinion.

gold_drake226d ago

omg chloe was awful. i really hated her at the end haha

Cacabunga226d ago

Abby was absolute trash protagonist in every way..
Tidus was so meh to me..
On villain side, the one i didn’t like wa Micah, because they wanted him to be that way and it was brilliant👍🏽

Rancegamerx226d ago

I agree, I liked Max, Chloe was a horrible friend and a bad influence.

Cacabunga225d ago

Everyone agrees on chloe, I’m sure even ND do.

H9225d ago

Both are horrible, granted Chloe is infinitely worse, it feels like Chloe is just fanservice for people who too over the edge and wasn't written to be a character that makes sense

GooGobbler226d ago

What about that Forspoken Tw*t

MrChow666226d ago

exactly I was expecting it to be a the top of the list

ravens52226d ago

Ye I was expecting her too. Guess they actually played the game. Unlike you and whoever agrees.

gpimlott225d ago

I played through the whole game and think she is one of the worst character Ive ever played as

ravens52225d ago (Edited 225d ago )

gpimlott. How?

Stanjara215d ago

Why would I payed and played the game if the whole internet is making fun of a character?

-Im here to kill Chaos...are you Chaos?

Yeah, I didn't play that game either.

Christopher225d ago (Edited 225d ago )

She's actually not bad. It's the writing itself that is bad overall, but she's fine overall. She's no worse than Miles Morales IMHO. Both thrust into a spotlight and receiving both praise and blame and dealing with it.

Forspoken is a bland game because it's 75% bland, boring, repetitive going through the motions and diversions that add nothing of the value with purposefully gated memory moments that don't feel organic or like you're discovering things but waiting for others to reveal things.

ravens52225d ago

Exactly Chris. Even though I liked the game. I kno u played it. People who actually played it and went thru her dream saw she was a good likeable person who really just acted out due to being alone and unloved. I think your problem is it was open world, I think if it was more linear you may have liked it better.

savedsynner225d ago

Oh no she's bad. Very unlikable even before you add on the bad dialogue. The game could have been quite good with a good protagonist

ravens52225d ago

For all the people like synner. Shes actually half white lol. Inferior complexity is a hell of a thing. You'll be ok.

Nerdmaster226d ago

Most of these aren't even that bad. Especially comparing to others like Squall "Whatever" Leonhart, Forspoken's Frey, and the guy from Atomic Heart.

-Foxtrot226d ago

Squall is one of the best developed main FF characters so...

People talk about his "whatever" thing thats at the start of the game, not the character he eventually becomes in the end.

Nerdmaster225d ago

No amount of "character development", (especially the ones that for me feels sudden and undeserved like Squall's), will justify him being a d**k to my girl Quistis. Even if he found the cure for cancer, from that moment on, I would never like him.
The article is about being unlikeable, and he was indeed unlikeable for at least half of the game.

BrainSyphoned226d ago

Squall is the best protagonists in FF so you can go whatever yourself.

H9225d ago

My good sir, I need to steal that "you can go whatever yourself" because it's gold

BlaqMagiq1226d ago

Except Squall has actual character development.

gold_drake226d ago (Edited 226d ago )

the "watever" is only present in the english localisation.
so your argument doesnt rly ... stand imo.

Nerdmaster225d ago

Good for you that you could enjoy the japanese version. That's not the case for me and the majority of people here, though.
