Game System Rank-Based Advantage Mechanism
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Sports games where teams of users compete do not effectively utilize a team's rank to enhance gameplay experience, lacking a mechanism to provide advantages based on club rank, which hampers entertainment value.
Innovation Solution
A computer-readable storage medium with a game program that allows teams to compete with advantages corresponding to their rank, including customizable stadiums, item emergence frequencies, and character abilities, enhancing the gameplay experience by introducing a growth element for club rank.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If team rank is determined according to win-loss results, then team competition structure is established, but rank does not affect gameplay
Solution Approach 1:
The patent changes the parameter of team capability by introducing rank-based modifications to player statistics. Higher-ranked teams gain advantageous effects such as increased attack power, defense power, or other performance parameters during matches, making the rank system dynamically influence gameplay rather than just serving as a static classification metric.
2Productivity
If clubs compete without rank-based advantages, then competitive balance is maintained, but entertainment characteristics are reduced
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies local quality by providing different capabilities to different teams based on their rank. Instead of uniform gameplay rules for all teams, the system creates localized variations in player performance parameters specific to each team's rank level, allowing higher-ranked teams to exhibit superior capabilities in matches against lower-ranked teams.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces dynamics by making team capabilities variable rather than fixed. Player statistics and team performance parameters dynamically adjust based on the opposing team's rank, creating a flexible gameplay system where advantages and disadvantages shift according to the competitive context and rank differences.
3Adaptability or versatility
If rank system is introduced, then club growth element is added, but game complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements feedback by creating a closed-loop system where match results influence team rank, and rank in turn influences future match outcomes through parameter modifications. This feedback mechanism allows the club growth element to operate automatically based on competitive performance, reducing the need for complex manual management systems while maintaining engagement through visible progression.
Data Source
AI summary
A competitive sports game in which a team of a first club that at least one user joins and a team of a second club are caused to compete against each other is executed. Here, at least the first club is associated with a rank that is information regarding a degree of growth of the club. The competitive sports game is executed such that an advantageous effect corresponding to a level of the rank is given to the team of the first club.
