PLUS Parts
In AC3, you can no longer obtain the plus abilities by going into debt. Instead, you must beat the game first. Load your cleared save and check your mail. You should have a message about an optional part called "OP-Intensify" in the shop. Buy it and then kill the guy mentioned in the message. Doing so will unlock one of the PLUS abilities.
 
The other PLUS abilities are hidden throughout the missions and arena. Beating a certain mission a certain way, or defeating an arena member will activate new PLUS options. These abilities will only work so long as you have the OP-Intensify part installed on your Core. The only drawback to using OP-Intensify part is that it uses all of your optional parts slots

Time release
To have infinite boost for 30 seconds hold R2, L2, and press R3 (Press in right joy stick) during game play and you will have ultimate boost for thirty seconds, but it takes thirty seconds for it to re boost.

Dropping Parts
To drop Right Arm Weapon, Back & Inside Parts Hold L1 + L2 + R1 + R2 + Triangle
To drop Left Arm Weapons Hold L1 + L2 + R1 + R2 + Circle br>To Drop Extension Parts Hold L1 + L2 + R1 + R2 + L3

Easy arena match wins
Go to the "Reservoir" arena level. At the beginning of the match, boost backwards to the point where your AC is almost out of bounds (indicated by the red line on your radar). Most arena opponents will try to get in behind you to attack. Using this trick will cause them to go out of bounds. You may take a little damage, but most fights will be over within ten seconds. Keep in mind that some opponents will not fall for this, but most will.

Extension part
You can find an extension part in in the Disable Pulse Generators mission. Head part
There is a hidden head part on the mission "Defend Naire Bridge". Eliminate all enemies on the first half of the bridge. However, before crossing the incomplete part of the bridge, fly underneath the middle section of it towards an alcove. It resembles a road that just stops. Look on the ground of the alcove and you should see a very small circular object. Press Circle to pick it up. It is the hidden AC head part.

Spread Bazooka
In the mission where you have to find a sinking ship's cargo, look in one of the cargo rooms on the ship to find a Spread Bazooka.

Mid-sized Rocket Launcher
When the mission where you have to disarm a poison starts, stay on top of the reservoir dam and travel east (to your left) and you will find a back Mid-sized Rocket Launcher. Reservoir mission:

Easy completion
This trick works against slow/large weapons with low ammunition (Ox, etc). Go over to the dam. Fly up onto the first little door. Land there, then target the opponent and learn how much ammunition they have remaining. Look up and to the left (or right). There should be another door in that direction. Fly to it while zig-zagging to avoid getting hit, and having them waste ammunition. Then, go back down. You are likely to get hit once or twice. Repeat this they are out of ammunition, then kill them. Do not use this trick against machine guns or rifles. It will appear as if the dam is out of area, but it is not

 Last mission
In the last mission where you are told you need to destroy the controller, it is both a very easy and annoying task. After completing the first section, which consists of almost nothing but MTs and laser pillars, all your ammunition and AP are restored -- do not worry about being stingy. In the second part, you will face two ACs at the same time who are a lot tougher than they look. Aside from having to waste a good chunk of ammunition, they will pose little threat to a good Ravin. After this, you will enter a long shaft with MTs and laser pillars that can all get very annoying. Find out were it says target, then slash that seemingly normal yet breakable wall to expose the generator. The rest should be obvious.

Human Plus enhancements
Successfully complete the game and load the clear data. You will receive mail stating that someone wants you to defeat a pilot named "Exile" and that he is very powerful and if you need an edge. Buy the OP-INTENSITY part. It is free, but you need every optional slot open for it. Successfully complete single player mission mode to get the Optional Part (OP-INTENSIFY). Save the game and equip the part.

Note: It will use all slots in the AC. You must then do the following to get the enhancements while that part is equipped. You will receive a mail when each enhancement has been unlocked.
