Vague rules and limited policing mean that only the very worst offenders are ever disciplined. This paper presents PlayerRating, a distributed reputation system specifically designed for online games. It leverages the prior experiences of a player's peers to determine the reputability of all other peers, allowing well-behaved players to safely congregate and avoid interaction with antisocial peers. The system has been implemented as an interface add-on for the game World of Warcraft and is evaluated theoretically and experimentally.","PeriodicalId":344000,"journal":{"name":"2009 8th Annual Workshop on Network and Systems Support for Games (NetGames)","volume":"23 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-11-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121962682","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

With this approach, the entire game is stored, run and rendered on a remote server. Player input is forwarded to the server via the Internet and the game's output is returned as a video stream. This adds network delay, which can negatively impact the gameplay. The delay is acceptable as long as the user is located geographically close to the cloud servers. However, for Massively Multiplayer Online Games (MMOGs), this delay is added on top of the existing delay between MMOG client and server. As MMOGs are highly delay-sensitive, this can significantly degrade their playability. To deal with this issue, we propose to use peer-to-peer techniques to distribute the MMOG server functionality and place it at the cloud server centers. This allows us to reduce the additional delay introduced by running the MMOG clients in the cloud.","PeriodicalId":344000,"journal":{"name":"2009 8th Annual Workshop on Network and Systems Support for Games (NetGames)","volume":"3 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-11-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130429936","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Most models are based on reasoned assumptions rather than measured data, potentially biasing evaluation. We measured player movement in World of Warcraft battlegrounds, and compared our observations against common assumptions about player avatar movement and navigation. We found that when modeling a highly interactive DVE such as a battleground, a waypoint model is not sufficient to describe most avatar movement. We were surprised to find that despite game incentives for grouping, the majority of avatar movement between objectives is individual, not grouped. Finally, we found that a hotspot-based model for avatar movement is consistent with our traces.","PeriodicalId":344000,"journal":{"name":"2009 8th Annual Workshop on Network and Systems Support for Games (NetGames)","volume":"35 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-11-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129409530","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We examine player behavior in terms of when, how much, and what they do in the virtual world. Player behavior is described through previously defined action categories for MMORPGs (Trading, Questing, Dungeons, Raiding, and Player versus Player (PvP) Combat) with addition of a new category for text and voice communication within a session. We conduct a player survey and perform measurements on the client side for a group of 104 players of a popular MMORPG - World of Warcraft (WoW), and discover that there are significant patterns in player behavior. Additionally we examine the importance of both voice and textual (chat) communication in MMORPGs, and note that communication makes a significant portion of average player's playtime and that voice communication is used by a large portion of players. We believe that the results of this study may be used for improving the existing and design of new MMORPGs (e.g., building better load balancing algorithms, addition of content that is more interesting for players) with more emphasis on both old and new communication aspects of the game (e.g., inbuilt voice clients, new ways of connecting the players). This work also serves as a starting point for better insight into networking requirements for such applications, which may be useful for service and network providers.","PeriodicalId":344000,"journal":{"name":"2009 8th Annual Workshop on Network and Systems Support for Games (NetGames)","volume":"22 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-11-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131661883","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The transparency analysis quantifies the force feedback distortion caused by network delay and packet loss, and predicts the maximally allowable delay and loss for predefined transparency requirements. In order to minimize the force feedback distortion over time-varying network delays, the proposed haptic synchronization scheme controls the playout times of the transmitted haptic events based on the transparency analysis.","PeriodicalId":344000,"journal":{"name":"2009 8th Annual Workshop on Network and Systems Support for Games (NetGames)","volume":"110 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-11-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132587670","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Captured information may not be manipulated while being processed and stored within user created profiles and therefore is reliable. We propose a concept of client side capturing of profile information within the working environment of a gamer playing online games and a profile server storing generic community-extendable gaming profile data models that can be individualized. This addresses the creative power of gaming communities and faces the challenge to define machine processable data structures that can be updated with context information. A gamer created profile, enriched with detailed usage and reliable context information, improves the expressiveness and keeps it more up-to-date.","PeriodicalId":344000,"journal":{"name":"2009 8th Annual Workshop on Network and Systems Support for Games (NetGames)","volume":"70 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-11-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123478319","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
