Benefits of technology

[0007]Achievement objects may be posted to a news feed or an electronic leaderboard for viewing by users of an online gaming community. In some embodiments, achievement objects may be customized such as through an editor interface that facilitates insertion of text, video, or audio comments. Achievement objects may also be commented on in the form of other achievement objects, having their own renderable event sequence.

Problems solved by technology

Some of those strikes at the dragon may be successful while some others might miss the dragon altogether.

Embodiment Construction

[0016]The following exemplary embodiments are described and illustrated in conjunction with apparatuses, methods, systems, and software which are meant to be examples and illustrative, not limiting in scope. For example, the network environment set forth below is provided to illustrate how one particular implementation of the present disclosure might be employed.

[0017]As shown by the figures, a system has been developed that supports generating achievement objects which encapsulate captured event playback sequences.

[0018]Online gaming has evolved enormously since the creation of stable networks such as the Internet permitting users virtually anywhere to play against each other or at least in competition with each other. Thus, not surprisingly, the competitive nature of these games and the availability of networking technologies have resulted in the creation of online gaming communities. As discussed above, often it may be desirable in these online gaming communities to notify users ...

Abstract

A method is provided for automatic generation of achievement objects corresponding to the achievement of a user in a computer implemented game which encapsulates renderable event sequence data defining a sequence of events graphically illustrating the achievement of the user. The generation of renderable event sequence data and the creation of achievement objects may be in automatic response to the detection of an achievement by a user within the context of the computer implemented game. Achievement objects, once generated, may be posted to a news feed or an electronic leaderboard for viewing by users of an online gaming community. In some embodiments, achievement objects may be customized such as through an editor interface that facilitates insertion of text, video, or audio comments. Achievement objects may also be commented on in the form of other achievement objects, having their own renderable event sequence.

Description

TECHNICAL FIELD[0001]The present disclosure relates in general to capturing and manipulating events for playback after an achievement in a game is reached.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]Multiuser online games are popular and are well-known in the art. In some implementations, there is a server that controls aspects of the game, such as who can become a player (i.e., a user that connects via a client device, computer or system to the server), the player's sensory inputs, player state (e.g., what virtual items the player's character possesses, what the character has done in the past, etc.), and player options (e.g., what the player or his character can do in the future).[0003]Online games may be presented through a web browser (e.g., Microsoft Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox, Apple Safari, Google Chrome, and Opera, etc.) in the form of a website operable to accept and display user actions. These websites can be page-based and take the form of static pages encoded in Hyper Text Ma...
