METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR ANALYZING USER-GENERATED PERFORMANCE DATA
A system that incorporates the subject disclosure may include, for example, a processor that facilitates a performance of operations. The operations may include obtaining an identification of an action to monitor during a gameplay associated with a game, storing a representation of a sliding window of the gameplay in a first storage medium, monitoring, by the system, for the identification of the action during the gameplay, detecting the identification of the action during the gameplay responsive to the monitoring, and responsive to the detecting, storing the representation of the sliding window of the gameplay in a second storage medium that is different from the first storage medium. Additional embodiments are disclosed.
METHODS, SYSTEMS, AND DEVICES FOR DYNAMICALLY APPLYING EQUALIZER PROFILES
A system that incorporates the subject disclosure may include, for example, an embodiment for detecting a map associated with a gaming session for a video game executing on a computing device associated with a first user, and obtaining a map equalizer profile associated with the map for the video game. Further embodiments can include determining a first avatar, associated with the first user, is located within a first environment of the map for the video game, and obtaining a first environment equalizer profile associated with the first environment. Additional embodiments can include providing first instructions to the computing device associated with the first user according to the map equalizer profile and the first environment equalizer profile. The first instructions indicate to the computing device to adjust audio output of the video game according to the map equalizer profile and the first environment equalizer profile. Additional embodiments are disclosed.
Method and apparatus for managing moments clips
Embodiments include a system that incorporates the subject disclosure may include, for example, detecting a first instance of a triggering event during a gameplay associated with a game played by a first player, responsive to the detecting the first instance of the triggering event, storing for a first duration a first portion of the gameplay associated with the first player in a first storage medium of the first system, detecting a second instance of the triggering event, and responsive to detecting the second instance of the triggering event before expiration of the first duration, adjusting the first duration to a second duration that exceeds the first duration. Additional embodiments are disclosed.
Systems and methods for a seller-initiated peer-to-peer exchange of a non-fungible digital asset
Systems and methods for using shared user inventory information to initiate peer-to-peer exchanges of digital assets that are usable within an online gaming platform are disclosed. Exemplary implementations may: receive an offer request for the transfer of ownership of a first digital asset from a first user to a second user; if the offer according to the offer request is accepted, transfer the ownership of the first digital asset as requested.
Auto trigger of notification based on detected sound
A system that incorporates the subject disclosure may include, for example, a memory to store instructions and a processor coupled to the memory. The processor, responsive to executing the instructions, facilitates performance of operations. The operations include obtaining for a first gamer of a plurality of gamers a plurality of audio profiles; each audio profile enables identification of one of a plurality of gaming events in a gaming session of a game played by the plurality of gamers. The operations also include monitoring an audio presentation of the game during the gaming session; detecting a gaming event of the plurality of gaming events based on a corresponding one of the plurality of audio profiles; and notifying at least a portion of the plurality of gamers of the gaming event that was detected. Additional embodiments are disclosed.
Systems and methods for location based games and employment of the same on location enabled devices
A location-based game system is provided. Such a system may take the form of any device (e.g., a wireless telephone) that includes a locating device (e.g., a GPS system). One such location-based game may operate such that the actual, physical location of a user on a physical playfield corresponds to the location of a virtual character on a virtual playfield. Such location based games are referred to herein as actuality games. In one multiplayer actuality embodiment, two game devices may communicate location, and other, information to a remote database such that the two user's may interact on different physical playfields, but play on the same virtual playfield. A number of wireless communications protocols, self-configuration, and auto-download software applications are also provided to optimize integration with, for example, a wireless telephone.
METHOD, APPARATUS, DEVICE, AND STORAGE MEDIUM FOR RUNNING STAND-ALONE PROGRAM
A method for running a stand-alone program includes: running the stand-alone program in a first main program, and establishing a network connection between a first terminal and a second terminal through the first main program run in the first terminal and a second main program run in the second terminal; and transmitting, by the first terminal, image information to the second terminal and transmitting, by the second terminal, a second operation command to the first terminal, through the network connection. A first operation object and a second operation object in the stand-alone program are separately controlled.
METHOD OF SYNCHRONIZING ONLINE GAME, AND SERVER DEVICE
The present disclosure provides a method of synchronizing an online game, and a server device, that do not require centralized information management, reduce the processing burden on each device during online communication, and allow for continuation of processing in an offline environment. A method, according to the present disclosure, of synchronizing an online game that allows for transmission and reception of information related to game processing between a first client terminal and a second client terminal via a server includes: receiving, from the first client terminal connected online, first information related to game processing on the first client terminal; determining whether the first information is information that determines a game status; and storing the first information on the server and transmitting the first information to the second client terminal when the first information is determined to be information that determines the game status.
Methods, systems, and devices of providing portions of recorded game content in response to a trigger
Embodiments include a system that incorporates the subject disclosure may include, for example, detecting a current trigger during a video game and determining a group of players involved in the current trigger. Further embodiments include recording a trigger clip of game content for each player in the group of players resulting in a group of trigger clips. Each trigger clip of the group of trigger clips is a portion of game content that includes the current trigger from a perspective of each player of the group of players. Additional embodiments include providing the group of trigger clips to a group of gaming devices over a communication network. Each gaming device of the group of gaming devices is associated with one player of the group of players. Additional embodiments are disclosed.
