Embodiment 1

[0052] system structure

[0053] figure 1 is a block diagram of an online game system according to Embodiment 1 of the present invention. Such as figure 1 As shown, the network game system according to Embodiment 1 includes, for example: a designated network 1 such as the Internet; client terminals 2 of a plurality of players, which can be connected to the network 1; Terminal 2 provides a designated virtual world.

[0054] For the client terminal 2, for example, a video game unit can be used. If a video game unit is used as the client terminal 2, the controller 4 will be used as the input device and the monitor 5 will be used as the display device.

[0055] In addition, other terminal units such as a personal computer may be used as the client terminal 2 . When using a personal computer, a keyboard and a mouse are used as input devices.

Embodiment 2

[0144] Next, a network game system according to Embodiment 2 of the present invention will be described. In the description of Embodiment 1 as described above, the display position and display direction of an object such as a billboard reflect each player's "movement track" and "input history". Meanwhile, the network game system according to Embodiment 2 is configured to statistically estimate the "trajectory of movement" of each player, and accordingly determine the land price that each player will give to the land in the virtual world.

[0145] This is the only difference between the foregoing embodiment 1 and embodiment 2. Therefore, only the difference between these two embodiments will be described below, and repeated description will be omitted.

[0146] Figure 17 is a block diagram of the game server 3 according to Embodiment 2. The process on the game server 3 will be described below with reference to this block diagram.

Embodiment 3

[0164] Next, a network game system according to Embodiment 3 of the present invention will be described. In Embodiment 2 as described above, it is configured to determine the land price for each player based on data such as the "movement trajectory" of each player. However, in the present Embodiment 3, it is configured to determine an advertisement rate of an object such as a billboard based on the statistics of "movement trajectories" of a plurality of players.

[0165] Figure 24 is a block diagram of the game server 3 according to Embodiment 3. The process on the game server 3 is explained below with reference to this block diagram.

[0166] Statistics of each player's movement trajectory

[0167] The statistical processing unit 66 of the game server 3 compiles statistical data from the data of each player's movement trajectory stored in the player profile database 7, for example, in hours, days, weeks, months, quarters or years, and based on the statistical results, ...

Abstract

An apparatus for displaying an object such as a billboard in a virtual world is provided. An input history of a user's operation for moving a character in the virtual world is obtained. The movement track of the character in the virtual world is also obtained. The position and direction of the billboard are changed according to the input history and the movement track so that the billboard is visible to the user. For instance, on a street where the user is expected to move at a high speed, the direction of the billboard is changed so that its display surface can face the front of the character and the billboard is displayed in a position far away from the user's viewing position.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an object display technology, and in particular to a method, device and system for displaying objects such as billboards and message boards in a virtual world provided by a server on a designated network such as the Internet. The invention also relates to a method for setting land prices and advertising fees in a virtual world. Background technique [0002] Today, a virtual world system is used in which a server connected to a designated network such as the Internet provides a virtual world. In these systems, players control their favorite characters to explore virtual worlds or communicate with each other through their characters. [0003] In the virtual world provided by this virtual world system, objects such as billboards and message boards are often displayed, on which sponsors advertise their businesses and goods to players visiting the virtual world, or through these objects, the virtual world The administrator...
