an analysis unit that, when a character operated by a player has withdrawn from the battle game, regards the player as a withdrawal player and analyzes the game situation regarding the withdrawal;
an interference content determination unit that determines, based on the analysis result of the analysis unit, the content of the interference that is different from that when the character to be operated by the leaving player is alive, and that is for interfering with another character in which the leaving player is alive;
The present invention relates to a game system including an interference processing unit that executes interference processing according to the content of the interference.

According to the present invention, a player who has left the battle game can continue to interfere in the battle game and have influence over other surviving characters.

Note that the character operated by the player withdraws from the battle game because it is attacked by another character, or withdraws due to the action of the character operated by the player (for example, the character voluntarily explodes ammunition and dies).

Also, the "game situation regarding withdrawal" is the situation of withdrawal, the process until withdrawal, and the like.

Further, the "interference content" includes the content of interference processing itself, interference-related parameters (interference possible parameters, interference level indicating the degree of interference), and the like. Further, according to the present invention, the content of interference may be determined when the player leaves, or may be determined in the future.

Also, "to execute the interference process" means, for example, to execute the interference process based on the operation input of the leaving player, to automatically execute the interference process without depending on the operation of the leaving player, or the like.

(2) In addition, the game system according to the present invention is

The object space setting unit 210 performs processing for arranging and setting various objects (sprites, billboards, polygons, objects composed of primitive surfaces such as free-form surfaces or subdivision surfaces) representing display objects such as objects (player objects, moving bodies, enemy objects), movement paths, buildings, trees, pillars, walls, and maps (terrain) in the object space.

Specifically, the object space setting unit 210 determines the position and rotation angle (synonymous with orientation and direction) of an object (model object), and places the object at that position (X, Y) or (X, Y, Z) at that rotation angle (rotation angle around the X, Y axis) or (rotation angle around the X, Y, Z axis).

Here, the object space includes both so-called virtual two-dimensional space and virtual three-dimensional space. A two-dimensional space is, for example, a space in which objects are arranged at two-dimensional coordinates (X, Y), and a three-dimensional space is a space in which objects are arranged, for example, at three-dimensional coordinates (X, Y, Z).

When the object space is a two-dimensional space, the objects are arranged based on the priority set for each of the plurality of objects. For example, it is possible to arrange objects (sprites) in order from the objects (sprites) that are desired to appear to be on the far side, and to superimpose the objects that are desired to appear to be on the front side.

By arranging an object with a large drawing size in the lower part of the image and an object with a small drawing size in the upper part of the image, the object space corresponding to the upper part of the screen can be made to appear to be on the back side, and the object space corresponding to the lower part of the screen can be made to appear to be on the front side.

The game control unit 213 executes game processing based on commands received by the input reception processing unit 212 .

In particular, the game control unit 213 controls a character to be operated (i.e., a player character), or controls enemy characters and other accompanying characters based on various information (game information) regarding the game transmitted from the server device 10 and commands (i.e., input instructions) received by the input reception processing unit 212.

The game control section 213 also includes a movement control section 214 . For example, the movement control unit 214 performs movement calculations for moving objects (in particular, each character) within the object space. For example, the movement control unit 214 moves the character to be operated by the player based on the player's operation input. Further, the movement control unit 214 receives movement information of the character to be operated by the other player from the terminal device 20 of the other player via the server device 10, and controls the movement of the other character based on the movement information. Further, the movement control unit 214 of this embodiment receives movement information of the non-player character from the server device 10, and controls the movement of the non-player character based on the movement information.

Also, the game control unit 213 performs processing for moving the moving object within the object space or controlling the action (motion, animation) of the moving object based on the game information transmitted from the server device 10, and the input data or program (moving algorithm) and various data (motion data) input by the player through the input unit 260.

Specifically, the game control unit 213 of the present embodiment performs a simulation process that sequentially obtains object movement information (movement direction, movement amount, movement speed, position, rotation angle, or acceleration) and motion information (position or rotation angle of each part object) for each frame. Here, a frame is a unit of time for object movement processing, motion processing (simulation processing), and image generation processing. In this embodiment, the frame rate may be fixed or may be variable according to the processing load.

Also, the game control unit 213 may be executed in conjunction with the server device 10 , or part or all of it may be formed in the server device 10 .

The game calculation unit 215 performs various game calculation processes. In particular, the game calculation unit 215 performs calculation processes necessary for executing the game, such as formation of a predetermined object space for a shooting game, formation of a map-based object space, progress of the game based on a scenario set in advance according to user's operation, battle between the player character and an enemy character (another character), and management of parameters during the battle.

The game calculation unit 215 is executed in conjunction with the server device 10 , but part or all of it may be formed in the server device 10 .

Game calculation section 215 includes parameter variation section 216 . The parameter changing unit 216 performs control to change game-related parameters (parameters such as physical strength, recovery value, attack value, etc.).

Also, the parameter changing unit 216 may be executed in conjunction with the server device 10 , or part or all of it may be formed in the server device 10 .

The virtual camera control unit 217 controls a virtual camera for generating an image of the game space seen from a given viewpoint. In this case, the virtual camera control unit 217 performs virtual camera (viewpoint) control processing for generating an image viewed from a given (arbitrary) viewpoint in the object space. Specifically, processing for controlling the position (X, Y, Z) or rotation angle (rotation angle about the X, Y, Z axes) of the virtual camera (processing for controlling the viewpoint position and line-of-sight direction) is performed.

For example, when photographing an object (e.g., a character, a ball, or a car) from behind with a virtual camera, the position or rotation angle (orientation of the virtual camera) of the virtual camera is controlled so that the virtual camera follows changes in the position or rotation of the object.

In this case, the virtual camera can be controlled based on information such as the position, rotation angle, or speed of the object obtained by the game control unit 213 . Alternatively, control may be performed to rotate the virtual camera at a predetermined rotation angle or to move it along a predetermined movement route. Also, in this case, the virtual camera is controlled based on virtual camera data for specifying the position (moving path) or rotation angle of the virtual camera.

Note that the virtual camera may be set as the viewpoint of the player character. Also, when there are a plurality of virtual cameras (viewpoints), the above control processing is performed for each virtual camera.

In particular, the virtual camera control unit 217 of this embodiment arranges a virtual camera within the game space.

Also, the virtual camera control unit 217 may be executed in conjunction with the server device 10 , or part or all of it may be formed in the server device 10 .

The game management unit 218 works in conjunction with the server device 10, and based on the player's operation input via the input unit 260, sets the player character and various items used by each player in a game such as a battle game, and registers them in the player information storage unit 273.

When the player character to be operated by the player has withdrawn from the battle game, the analysis unit 221 regards the player as a withdrawal player and analyzes the game situation regarding the withdrawal. Details will be described later.

Based on the analysis result of the analysis unit 221, the interference content determination unit 222 determines the content of interference for interfering with another character in which the leaving player is alive, which is different from the content when the character to be operated by the player (player character) is alive. Details will be described later.

The interference processing unit 223 executes interference processing according to the details of the interference. Details will be described later.

The image generation unit 230 performs drawing processing based on various information related to image generation transmitted from the server device 10 and the results of various processing (game processing) performed by the processing unit 200, thereby generating an image and outputting it to the display unit (display) 290.

In particular, the image generated by the image generator 230 may be a so-called two-dimensional image or a so-called three-dimensional image. In particular, the image generator 230 generates an image to be displayed on the screen, which is an image seen from the virtual camera in the object space.

Here, when generating a two-dimensional image, the image generating part 230 draws objects in descending order of set priority, and when the objects overlap each other, overwrites and draws the object with the higher priority.

When generating a three-dimensional image, the image generating unit 230 of the present embodiment first receives object data (model data) including vertex data (vertex position coordinates, texture coordinates, color data, normal vectors, α values, etc.) of each vertex of an object (model), and performs vertex processing based on the vertex data included in the input object data. When performing vertex processing, vertex generation processing (tessellation, curved surface division, polygon division) for redividing polygons may be performed as necessary.

Also, in the vertex processing, geometry processing such as vertex movement processing, coordinate transformation (world coordinate transformation, camera coordinate transformation), clipping processing, perspective transformation, or light source processing is performed, and based on the processing results, the vertex data given to the vertices constituting the object is changed (updated, adjusted). Then, rasterization (scan conversion) is performed based on the vertex data after vertex processing, and polygon (primitive) surfaces and pixels are associated with each other. Then, following rasterization, pixel processing (fragment processing) is performed to draw the pixels that make up the image (fragments that make up the display screen).

In the pixel processing, various types of processing such as texture reading (texture mapping), color data setting/change, semi-transparency synthesis, antialiasing, etc. are performed to determine the final drawing color of the pixels that make up the image, and the drawing color of the perspective-transformed object is output (rendered) to the image buffer 272 (frame buffer, buffer capable of storing image information in units of pixels, VRAM, rendering target). That is, in pixel processing, per-pixel processing is performed in which image information (color, normal, brightness, α value, etc.) is set or changed on a pixel-by-pixel basis.

This generates an image seen from a virtual camera (given viewpoint) set in the object space. Note that when there are a plurality of virtual cameras (viewpoints), images can be generated so that the images viewed from each virtual camera can be displayed as divided images on one screen.

Note that the vertex processing and pixel processing performed by the image generation unit 230 may be realized by hardware that enables the programming of polygon (primitive) drawing processing using a shader program written in a shading language, that is, a so-called programmable shader (vertex shader or pixel shader). With programmable shaders, the degree of freedom in rendering processing is high because vertex-based processing and pixel-based processing can be programmed, and the power of expression can be greatly improved compared to fixed hardware rendering processing.

Then, the image generation unit 230 performs geometry processing, texture mapping, hidden surface removal processing, α-blending, etc. when drawing an object.

Alpha blending (alpha synthesis) refers to translucent synthesis processing (normal alpha blending, additive alpha blending, subtractive alpha blending, etc.) based on an alpha value (A value).

Note that the α value is information that can be stored in association with each pixel (texel, dot), and is, for example, additional information other than color information. The α value can be used as mask information, translucency (equivalent to transparency and opacity), bump information, and the like.

In the geometry processing, processing such as coordinate transformation, clipping processing, perspective projection transformation, or light source calculation is performed on the object. Then, the object data (position coordinates of the vertices of the object, texture coordinates, color data (brightness data), normal vector, α value, etc.) after geometry processing (after perspective projection conversion) are stored in the storage unit 270 .

In texture mapping, a process of mapping textures (texel values) stored in the texture storage unit of the storage unit 270 to objects is performed. Specifically, a texture (surface properties such as color (RGB) and α value) is read from the texture storage unit of the storage unit 270 using texture coordinates set (given) to the vertices of the object, and the texture, which is a two-dimensional image, is mapped onto the object. In this case, processing for associating pixels with texels and bilinear interpolation for interpolating texels are performed.

Note that in this embodiment, a process of mapping a given texture may be performed when drawing an object. In this case, the color distribution (texel pattern) of the mapped texture can be dynamically changed.

In this case, textures with different color distributions (pixel patterns) may be dynamically generated, or a plurality of textures with different color distributions may be prepared in advance and the textures to be used may be dynamically switched. Alternatively, the texture color distribution may be changed for each object.

In hidden surface removal processing, hidden surface removal processing is performed by a Z buffer method (depth comparison method, Z test) using a Z buffer (depth buffer) in which the Z value (depth information) of drawing pixels is stored. That is, when drawing pixels corresponding to a primitive of an object, the Z value stored in the Z buffer is referred to, and the Z value of the referenced Z buffer is compared with the Z value of the drawing pixel of the primitive. If the Z value of the drawing pixel is a Z value on the front side as seen from the virtual camera (for example, a small Z value), the drawing pixel is drawn and the Z value of the Z buffer is updated to a new Z value.

In α blending (α synthesis), the image generator 230 performs translucent synthesis processing (normal α blending, additive α blending, subtractive α blending, etc.) based on the α value (A value). Note that the α value is information that can be stored in association with each pixel (texel, dot), and is, for example, additional information other than color information. The α value can be used as mask information, translucency (equivalent to transparency and opacity), bump information, and the like.

The sound processing unit 231 performs sound processing based on the results of various processes performed by the processing unit 200 , generates game sounds such as BGM, sound effects, or voices, and outputs the game sounds to the sound output unit 292 .

[4] Overview The game system of the present embodiment is a so-called battle royale game (also called a "battroy game", a "battle royal game", or a "survival game") system in which a plurality of players participate in a game space in which each character (for example, 100 characters) is arranged and fights until the last player character (or the last team) is left. If the last player (or the last team) survives, the player wins.

The server device 10 constituting the game system 1 of the present embodiment is interlocked with the terminal device 20 operated by each player, for example, forms one game space (that is, a game field in a virtual three-dimensional space), and has a configuration in which a fighting game such as a shooting game or an action game is executed in the game field by a character operated by each player.

The server device 10 also has a configuration in which a plurality of characters move in a game space to execute a game, and information about the game is provided to the terminal device 20 .

In particular, the terminal device 20 of the present embodiment analyzes the game situation regarding the withdrawal when the physical strength value (HP value, also referred to as the life value) of the player character (the character to be operated by the player) becomes 0 and withdraws from the battle game, and determines the content of interference for interfering with other surviving characters based on the analysis results.

Then, the terminal device 20 of the player who has left executes interference processing in accordance with the content of the interference based on the player's operation input. For example, when the player character C1 to be operated by the player P1 is attacked by the player character C2 to be operated by the player P2 and has a physical strength value of 0 and withdraws from the battle game, the content of interference that interferes with the game play of the player P2 is determined, and the interference processing for interrupting the game play of the player P2 is executed according to the content of the interference based on the operation input of the player P1.

As described above, according to the present embodiment, even when the player character leaves the battle game, the player can interfere with the battle game and have an influence on other players' play of the battle game.

The character of this embodiment may be a character operated by a player, or may be an NPC (non-player character) that is computer-controlled according to game processing such as a program and is not operated by a player.

Also, the game of this embodiment may be provided with a time limit (for example, 30 minutes) per game.

In the following explanation, for convenience of explanation, the processing in the terminal device 20A of the player P1 when the player character C1 to be operated by the player P1 leaves the battle game will be explained. Also, the competitive game of this embodiment is composed of a plurality of groups. For example, there are at least a group G1 made up of characters C1, C3, C5, and C7, and a group G2 made up of characters C2, C4, C6, and C8.

[5] Description of Analysis When the player character C1 to be operated by the player P1 leaves the battle game, the analysis unit 221 of the present embodiment treats the player P1 as the leaving player P1 and analyzes the game situation related to the leaving. The analysis unit 221 stores the analysis result in the analysis result storage unit 275 of the terminal device 20 . Note that the analysis unit 221 may share the analysis result with the server device 10 . For example, the analysis unit 221 of the terminal device 20 may transmit the analysis result to the server device 10, the server device 10 may receive the analysis result from each terminal device 20, and the analysis result of the player may be stored in the analysis result storage unit 147 in association with the identification information of the player for each player.

[5.1] Withdrawal Timing and Position Coordinates The analysis unit 221 stores the timing Tx at which the player character C1 withdraws from the battle game in the analysis result storage unit 147 as an analysis result. For example, the analysis result storage unit 147 may store a period from the start of the game to the withdrawal timing Tx, or may store the withdrawal time.

Further, the analysis unit 221 may store the positional coordinates (x, y, z) in the game space at the time when the player character C1 left as an analysis result in association with the time Tx when the player character C1 left.

[5.2] Analysis of Other Characters Related to the Departed Player's Character The analysis unit 221 determines whether or not the character C1 to be operated by the detached player P1 has been attacked by another character before leaving. Then, the analysis unit 221 stores, in the analysis result storage unit 147, the analysis result for each other character (each attack opponent) with which the character C1 has been attacked.

4 and 5 show an example of analysis results. As shown in FIG. 4, the analysis unit 221 stores the attack timing from the start of the game, the type of attack (e.g., weapon, equipment), the attack value, the damage value, the attack attribute, and whether or not there is a hit for each attack in the analysis result storage unit 147 in association with the other character name (character identification information).

Further, as shown in FIG. 5, the analysis unit 221 stores the total attack value received by the character C1 from the other characters, the total damage value received by the character C1 from attacks from the other characters, the number of hits received by the character C1 (the number of times the character C1 was hit), and the levels of the other characters as analysis results in association with other character names (character identification information).

For example, the analysis unit 221 calculates the total attack value of the character C2 by adding each attack value of the character C2 until the character C1 leaves, calculates the total damage value received from the character C2 by adding each damage value of the character C1 received from the character C2 until the character C1 leaves, and counts the number of hits received by the character C1 from the character C2 until the character C1 leaves to calculate the number of hits received from the character C2.

The analysis unit 221 may sort (arrange) the other characters in descending order of the total damage value received by the player character C1, and determine the other character that received the most attack.

Further, the analysis unit 221 determines whether or not the character C1 to be operated by the leaving player P1 has been assisted by another character before leaving. Then, the analysis unit 221 stores the analysis result for each other character (for each support partner) with which the character C1 has received support in the analysis result storage unit 147 .

6 and 7 show an example of analysis results. As shown in FIG. 6, the analysis unit 221 stores the support timing from the start of the game, the type of support received (for example, medicinal herbs), and the recovery value of the character C1 as analysis results for each support, in association with other character names (character identification information) in the analysis result storage unit 147.

Further, as shown in FIG. 7, the analysis unit 221 stores the total recovery value received by the character C1 from the other character and the level of the other character as an analysis result in association with the name of the other character (identification information of the character).

For example, the analysis unit 221 adds each recovery value of the character C3 until the character C1 leaves to calculate the total recovery value received from the character C3.

The analysis unit 221 may sort (arrange) the support partner characters in descending order of the total recovery value received by the player character C1, and determine the character that provided the most support.

[5.3] Analysis of Cause of Departure of Player Character The analysis unit 221 of this embodiment determines how the player character C1 has left. For example, the analysis unit 221 sets the cause value A=1 in the case of withdrawal from the battle game caused by an attack from another character, sets the cause value A=2 in the case of withdrawal from the battle game caused by the action of the player character C1, and sets the cause value A=3 in the case of other causes.

Specifically, when the player character C1 is attacked by another character C2 immediately before the timing Tx when the physical strength value of the player character C1 becomes 0, the analysis part 221 determines that the player character C1 leaves the battle game due to the attack by the other character C2, and sets 1 to the cause value A. Then, in association with the cause value A, the character C2 is set as the character of the reason for leaving.

Further, when the player character C1 is controlling the action of exploding an explosive based on the player P1's operation input immediately before the timing Tx when the physical strength value of the player character C1 becomes 0, the analysis unit 221 determines that the action of the player character C1 is the cause of withdrawal from the battle game, and sets the cause value A to 2.

[6] Description of Interference Target Character First, the interference content determination unit 222 determines a character to be the interference target. In other words, the interference content determination unit 222 determines one or more characters among the surviving characters (that is, characters whose physical strength value is greater than 0) as interference target characters in the game space.

[6.1] Example of Determining Interference Target Character Based on Analysis Result For example, when the analysis unit 221 determines that the character C1 to be operated by the leaving player P1 has been attacked by another character before leaving, the interference content determination unit 222 determines the other character as the interference target character. This is because the player can retaliate against the attacked other player for the purpose of obstruction, thereby enhancing the interest of the game.

For example, the interference content determination unit 222 may set the character C2, which is set in association with the cause value, as the character to be interfered when the player leaves the battle game due to an attack from a specific other character (that is, when the cause value A=1). In other words, since the character C2 is the opponent that caused the death of the player character C1, it is possible to interfere with the game play of the character C2.

Further, when the attack opponent to which the player character C1 has received the most damage is the character C4, the interference content determination unit 222 may determine the character C4 as the interference target.

Further, the interference content determination unit 222 may set the ally character as an interference target. For example, when the analysis unit 221 determines that the character C1, which is the operation target of the leaving player, was supported by the character C3 before leaving, the interference content determination unit 222 may determine the character C3 as the character to be the interference target.

Further, for example, if the character that most assisted the player character C1 is the character C5, the interference content determination unit 222 may determine the character C5 as the interference target.

For example, the interference content determination unit 222 may set a given ally character as an interference target character when the own character C1 self-destructs and leaves the battle game (that is, when the cause value A=2).

[6.2] Example of Determining Interference Target Character Based on Departure Player's Operational Input The interference content determination unit 222 may receive a selection of another character from among the surviving other characters based on the operational input of the detached player P1, and determine the selected other character as the interference target character.

For example, the virtual camera control unit 217 of the terminal device 20A of the leaving player P1 sets a virtual camera corresponding to each character living in the game space, displays an image seen from each virtual camera on the display unit of the terminal device 20A, and controls so that the player P1 can visually recognize the state of each character. Then, the interference content determination unit 222 may determine the character to be the interference target based on the operation input by the player P1.

FIG. 8 and FIG. 9 are examples of the game screen GA displayed on the display unit of the terminal device 20A of the leaving player P1.

For example, the terminal device 20A generates images GX1, GX2, and GX3 seen from virtual cameras corresponding to a plurality of living characters C2, C4, and C6, respectively, switches the images based on the operation input of the player P1, and displays them on the game screen GA. The images GX1, GX2, and GX3 (game screen GA) display information MC1, MC2, and MC3 of the character being displayed. Character information includes enemy or ally information.

Then, as shown in FIG. 8, the interference content determination unit 222 determines the character C2 as the character to be interfered with when the input of the determination button is received for the character C2 in the image GX1 displayed on the game screen GA based on the operation input by the player P1.

FIG. 9 is an example in which images GX1, GX2, and GX3 viewed from virtual cameras corresponding to a plurality of living characters C2, C4, and C6 are simultaneously displayed on the game screen GA. For example, character information MC1, MC2, and MC3 are displayed in each of the images GX1, GX2, and GX3, respectively. Note that when displaying a plurality of surviving characters, they may be displayed by switching or classifying them according to their hostile relationship or ally relationship.

Then, the interference content determination unit 222 accepts selection of a character based on the operation input by the player P1, and sets the selected character as the interference target character. For example, as shown in FIG. 9, when an input of a selection check is received on the screen of each character and an input of an enter button is received, the character whose selection check is received is determined as an interference target character.

It should be noted that the interference content determination unit 222 manages the characters to be interfered by dividing them into hostile relationships and ally relationships.

Further, when the analyzing unit 221 determines that the character C1 to be operated by the leaving player P1 has been attacked by a plurality of other characters (for example, the characters C2, C4, and C6) before leaving, the interference content determining unit 222 may accept selection of the other character (for example, the character C4) to be the interference target from among the plurality of other characters based on the player's operation input, and determine the selected other character (for example, the character C4) as the character to be the interference target. In this way, player P1 can choose the opponent (for example, player P4) with whom he wants to get revenge.

Further, for example, when the analysis unit 221 determines that the character C1 to be operated by the leaving player P1 has been assisted by a plurality of other characters (for example, characters C3, C5, and C7) before leaving, the interference content determination unit 222 may accept selection of another character (for example, character C5) to be the interference target from among the plurality of other characters based on the player's operation input, and determine the selected other character (for example, character C5) as the character to be the interference target. In this way, the player P1 can select the opponent (for example, the player P5) whom he wants to support.

Further, the interference content determination unit 222 may extract the character C2 that caused the withdrawal (the character C2 that is set in association with the cause value A=1), the character C4 that received the most damage, and the character C3 that provided the most support as candidates, and may determine one or a plurality of characters from among the candidates as the interference target characters based on the player's operation input.

[7] Description of Virtual Camera Control Before the player P1 leaves the battle game, the virtual camera control unit 217 performs virtual camera control with the character C1 to be operated by the player P1 as the first-person viewpoint or the third-person viewpoint. For example, an image viewed from a virtual camera with the character C1 as the third-person viewpoint is generated, and the generated image is displayed on the display unit of the terminal device 20A of the player P1.

Then, in the terminal device 20A, after the player P1 leaves the battle game, the virtual camera control unit 217 controls the character to be interfered with from the first-person viewpoint or the third-person viewpoint. For example, if the character C2 to be operated by the player P2 is the interference target, an image viewed from a virtual camera with the character C2 as the third-person viewpoint is generated and displayed on the display unit of the terminal device 20A of the player P1. The virtual camera control unit 217 controls the virtual camera to follow the character C2.

Note that the terminal device 20A of the player P1 may receive virtual camera control information for following the character C2 from the terminal device 20B of the player P2 (via the server device 10) and generate an image based on the virtual camera control information, or may receive the position information of the character C2 from the terminal device 20B of the player P2, perform virtual camera control, and generate an image.

When there are a plurality of interference target characters, the image generation unit 230 of the terminal device 20A sets a virtual camera for each interference target character, and generates an image viewed from each virtual camera.

The display control unit 211 of the present embodiment divides each character to be interfered into a hostile group (for example, characters C2 and C4) and a friendly group (for example, characters C3 and C5) and displays them on the screen. Note that the display control unit 211 may display a plurality of characters on the screen by mixing hostile interference target characters and friendly interference target characters.

FIG. 10 is an example of a game screen GA in which the terminal device 20A of the leaving player P1 displays an image GX1 seen from the viewpoint of the interference target character C2.

When a plurality of characters are interference targets, the terminal device 20A switches between images GX1 and GX2 in which the characters C2 and C4 as interference targets are drawn based on the operation input of the player P1, and controls so that the states of the characters C2 and C4 can be visually recognized. The game screen GA of the terminal device 20A displays the information MC1 of the interference target character being displayed.

FIG. 11 is an example of the game screen GA when the terminal device 20A of the leaving player P1 has a plurality of characters C2 and C4 as interference targets. For example, the display control unit 211 simultaneously displays on the game screen GA images GX1 and GX2 viewed from virtual cameras with the characters C2 and C4 as viewpoints. In this way, the player can simultaneously see the states of the interference target characters C2 and C4.

Note that the terminal device 20A displays information MC1 and MC2 of the interference target character in each of the images GX1 and GX2. In addition, when there are a large number of interference target characters (for example, when the number of interference target characters is five or more), the display control unit 211 may extract two representative interference target characters and display them on the screen. In such a case, a representative interference target character may be extracted based on the operation input by the player P1.

In addition, the terminal device 20A may be provided with a bird's-eye view camera for drawing each interference target character, and may generate and display an image viewed from the bird's-eye camera.

Further, the terminal device 20A may generate a map image in which a mark identifying each interference target character is drawn at a position on the map of the game space, and display the map image.

[8] Description of Interference Contents Based on the analysis result of the analysis unit 221, the interference content determination unit 222 determines the content of the interference that is different from when the player character C1 is alive and is for interfering with another character in which the player P1 is alive.

[8.1] Interference content for hostile interference target character The interference content determination unit 222 of the present embodiment determines interference content for interfering with the action of the character C2 when the character C1 to be operated by the leaving player P1 is attacked by the interference target character C2 before leaving. First, the content of interference with respect to a hostile interference target character will be described.

(a) Contents of Interference Regarding Field of View The content of interference determination unit 222 may determine the content of interference for displaying a mislead image on the game screen in the terminal device 20B of the player P2 who operates the interference target. A misleading image is an image that creates fog, darkness, hallucinations, etc. to obstruct the view.

FIG. 12 shows an example of an image GB (game screen GB) displayed on the terminal device 20B of the player P2 who operates the interference target. For example, as shown in FIG. 12, the α value range of each pixel of the fog image GF is set to 0≦α≦1. That is, α=0 represents transparency, α=1 represents opacity, and as α approaches 0, transparency increases (conversely, as α approaches 1, transparency decreases).

Then, the fog image GF is semi-transparently combined with the image GB viewed from the virtual camera to generate an image GB with fog.

(b) Contents of Interference Related to Arrangement of Hallucinatory Objects Further, the content of interference determining unit 222 may determine the content of interference to arrange hallucinatory objects in the game space. A hallucinatory object is an object that does not undergo collision determination (hit determination). The hallucinatory object may be an item or a movable object such as a ghost character. Transparency (α value) may also be set for hallucinatory objects, and semi-transparent synthesis processing may be performed.

The interference content determination unit 222 may determine the position to place the hallucinatory object based on the operation input by the player P1. By doing so, it is possible to stop the player P2 who is being interfered with or to guide him to a predetermined destination.

Control is performed so that the hallucinatory object is displayed on the game screens of the departing player P1 and the player P2 on the side of interference, but is not displayed on the game screens of the other players. The same applies to the following description.

(c) Interference content of friendly fire The interference content determination unit 222 may also determine interference content in which at least one or more objects such as characters and items existing in the game space are replaced with hallucinatory objects. Further, the interference content determination unit 222 may determine interference content for replacing at least one or more of the object images on the generated image with the hallucinogenic object image.

For example, assume that character C2 and character C4 are in a friendly relationship, and character C2 and character C3 are in a hostile relationship. Also, the hallucinatory object C3G is set as an object imitating the character C3. In such a case, the interference content determination unit 222 determines the content of interference to replace the character C4 with the hallucinatory object C3G as the display image to be displayed on the terminal device 20B of the player P2. By doing so, it is possible to induce the character C2 and the character C4 to fight each other. The player P4 (the player operating the character C4) who is not interfered with is in a disadvantageous situation because he is mistakenly attacked by the ally player P2, but such a surprise attack can further enhance the interest of the game. In the display image displayed on the terminal device 20A of the player P1, the character C4 is also replaced with the hallucinatory object C3G so that the player P1 can also confirm the interference process.

Note that the interference content processing unit 222 may determine the interference content by replacing the icon that identifies the friend or foe attached to the character with a hallucinatory icon. For example, the interference content processing unit 222 determines the interference content by replacing an icon (ally icon) indicating the position of the friend character C4 with an enemy icon on a map screen displayed on a part of the game screen displayed on the terminal device 20B of the player P2.

(d) Interference content regarding sound The interference content determination unit 222 may determine, as the interference content, the content of voice interference that causes the speaker of the terminal device 20 of the player P2 operating the character C2 to reproduce a misleading voice. The misleading sound is footsteps or gunshots of a character that does not actually exist in the game space, and is audible to the departing player P1 and the interfered player P2, but not audible to the other players. The player P2 on the side to be interfered hears like an auditory hallucination.

In addition to footsteps and gunshots, misleading voices include wind, rain, distress signals, pinch sounds, voices of large groups attacking enemy bases, and BGM (music) that imagines these.

(e) Interference content regarding operation The interference content determination unit 222 may determine, as the interference content, the content that interferes with the operation of the player P2 who operates the character C2 to be interfered with. The contents of the interference related to the operations are to prevent the interfered player P2 from performing some or all of the operations, to control the character C2 of the interfered player P2 based on the operation input of the leaving player P1 instead of the interfered player P2.

Further, the content of interference determining unit 222 may determine the content of interference to be operated by the leaving player P1 by pretending to be an ally player (for example, player P4) of the player P2 who is being interfered with.

For example, the interference content determination part 222 hijacks the chat screen of the interfered player P2 by the leaving player P1, and determines the interference content that allows the interfered player P2 to impersonate an ally player (for example, player P4) and write.

(f) Contents of Interference Related to User Interface The content of interference determination unit 222 may determine content that interferes with the user interface of player P2 as the content of interference. For example, the content of the interference is changing the content displayed on the display screen of the terminal device 20B of the player P2 (for example, an instruction icon or status information such as physical strength) to false display content. In this way, the leaving player P1 can transmit false information to the player P2, disturb the game play of the player P2, and further enhance the interest of the game. Note that the user interface includes a function of displaying the output result of the terminal device 20 to the player, a function of causing some action by the player's (user's) operation (for example, touch operation), and the like.

(g) Contents of Interference Related to Behavior The content of interference determination unit 222 may determine content of interfering with the behavior of the character C2 to be interfered as the content of interference. For example, the content that interferes with the action of the character C2 to be interfered with is control to slow down the movement speed or action speed of the character C2, control to disable some actions such as aiming setting action, and the like. In this way, the leaving player P1 can make the game more interesting by slowing down the behavior of the character C2.

(h) Interference content related to parameter change The interference content determination unit 222 may determine interference content that decreases the parameters (attack power, defense power, etc.) related to the battle game of the character C2 to be interfered.

[8.2] Interference content for friendly interference target character The interference content determination unit 222 determines the interference content for the friendly interference target character C3 so as to give an advantage to the character C3. The contents of the interference with respect to the interference target character in the ally relationship are as follows.

(a) Interference Contents Regarding Sound The interference content determination unit 222 may determine, as the interference content, voice content for causing the speaker of the terminal device 20 of the player P2 operating the character C3 to reproduce a warning voice. The warning voice is, for example, voice data saying "An enemy is nearby."

(b) Contents of Interference Related to Behavior The content of interference determination unit 222 may determine content that gives an advantage to the behavior of the character C3 to be interfered as the content of interference. For example, the content that makes the action of the character C3 to be interfered with advantageous is control to speed up the movement speed or action speed of the character C3, control to make it easier to match the target setting action, or the like. In this way, the leaving player P1 can support the character C3, and the game can be made more interesting.

(c) Interference content related to parameter change For example, the interference content determination unit 222 may determine the interference content to increase the parameters (attack power, defense power, etc.) related to the battle game of the character C3 to be interfered.

[8.3] Interference Position The interference content determining section 222 may determine the interference position in the game space. For example, the interference content determination unit 222 may set the position (position coordinates in the game space) at which the misleading sound is reproduced (produced) based on the operation input by the player P1. For example, in the case of determining the interference content of the sound that generates a gunshot sound to imply the presence of another character with respect to the interference target character C2, the position where the gunshot sound is generated may be set as the interference position.

For example, when the leaving player P1 wishes to reproduce the sound at a position B far away from the position A of the character C2 to be interfered (for example, a position 10 kilometers away from the position A or an enemy's home base), the position B is set as the interference position in association with the contents of the voice interference based on the operation input of the leaving player P1. In this way, the player P2 operating the character C2 can have the illusion that there is an enemy in the distance.

Further, when the leaving player P1 wants to reproduce the voice at a position C (for example, a position 5 meters away from the position A) close to the position A of the character C2 to be interfered with, the position C is set as the interference position in association with the content of voice interference based on the operation input of the leaving player P1. In this way, the player P2 who operates the character C2 can have the illusion that an enemy is nearby.

[8.4] Occurrence period Then, the interference content determination unit 222 sets an occurrence period from the occurrence of the interference processing of the interference content to the end thereof for each interference content.

[8.5] List of Contents of Interference As shown in FIG. 14, the content determination unit 222 lists the determined content of interference (executable content of interference) for each character to be interfered.

For example, when the interference target character is in a hostile relationship, the interference content determination unit 222 may add at least visual interference content, hallucination interference content, audio interference content, and parameter change interference content to a list as executable interference content from among a plurality of various interference content regarding the interference target character in the hostile relationship.

Further, when the analysis unit 221 determines that the character C2 to be interfered is a character set in association with the cause value A=1, the character C1 leaves due to the attack of the character C2, so the interference content determination unit 222 may add to the list as executable interference content the interference content regarding friendly fire that greatly affects the character C2.

Further, when the analysis unit 221 determines that the character C4, which is the target of interference, is the attacking opponent who received the most damage, the interference content determination unit 222 may add the interference content related to the operation and the action to the list as executable interference content so that the character C1 can take revenge on the character C4.

Further, if the analysis unit 221 determines that the character C1 has been attacked ten times or more by the character C6 within one minute immediately before leaving the game, the interference content determination unit 222 considers that the character C1 has been attacked intensively and died, and may add the interference content related to the user interface to the list as executable interference content so that the character C1 can take revenge against the character C6.

For example, the interference content determination unit 222 may determine the content and number of possible interferences based on at least one of the attack type (weapon, etc.) of the character C2 to be interfered with, attack parameters (attack value, total attack value, damage value, total damage value, number of hits), attack attributes, and attack timing from the start of the game. According to this, since the content of interference is determined in consideration of the type of attack of the interference target character, etc., the degree of attack received by the leaving player P1 can be reflected in the content of interference.

For example, when the interference target character is in a friendly relationship, the interference content determination unit 222 may add at least the interference content related to parameter change to the list as executable interference content from among a plurality of various interference content related to the interference target character in the friendly relationship.

For example, the interference content determination unit 222 may determine the content and number of possible interferences based on at least one of the type of support received from the interference target character C3, the parameters related to the support, the support attribute, and the timing of support from the start of the game.

Further, the interference content determination unit 222 may determine the executable content of interference according to the difference between the level of the character C1 of the leaving player P1 and the level of the character to be interfered by the analysis unit 221 .

Further, the interference content determination unit 222 may adjust the number of executable interference content by the analysis unit 221 according to the difference between the level of the character C1 of the leaving player P1 and the level of the interference target character. For example, when the character level fluctuates in the range of 1 to 99, the level of the character C1 is 10 and the level of the character to be interfered is 11. If the level difference is less than 10, the number of executable interference contents is set to 5, if the level difference is 10 or more and less than 50, the number of executable interference contents is set to 7, and if the level difference is 50 or more, the number of executable interference contents is set to 10. In this way, when the level of the character to be interfered is high, more interferences can be performed, and the leaving player P1 can perform satisfactory interferences.

In the present embodiment, the content of interference (the content and number of possible interferences) is determined when the leaving player P1 leaves, but the content of interference may be changed according to the progress of the game.

[9] Execution of Interference Processing The interference processing unit 223 executes interference processing according to the content of interference determined based on the operation input by the player P1. For example, as shown in FIG. 10, the interference processing unit 223 receives a selection of interference content from the list LS of executable interference content determined by the interference content determination unit 222 based on the operation input by the player P1, and executes interference processing according to the selected interference content. In this way, the leaving player P1 can interfere as desired.

Further, in the present embodiment, the interference processing unit 223 of the terminal device 20A of the leaving player P1 and the interference processing unit 223 of the terminal device of the interference target player of the leaving player P1 (for example, the terminal device 20B of the player P2 and the terminal device 20C of the player P3) execute interference processing according to the content of the interference. In the terminal devices of the other players who are not the interference target of the withdrawing player P1, interference processing corresponding to the content of the interference is not executed.

In the present embodiment, interference processing is executed at the timing (interference timing) when player P1 instructs the content of interference. Note that, according to this embodiment, the interference process can be executed at the timing instructed by the player P1, and the player can appropriately interfere according to the progress of the game.

For example, when the terminal device 20A of the leaving player P1 receives an instruction to execute a specific content of interference, it transmits information about the content of the interference to the terminal device 20B of the player P2 who operates the character C2 to be interfered, for example, via the server device 10 at the timing of the reception. The information about the content of interference includes the type of content of interference (for example, fog generation, sound generation, operation disturbance, etc.), interference level, and occurrence period.

The terminal device 20B executes interference processing until the occurrence period ends based on the information on the content of the interference at the timing of receiving the information on the content of the interference. In addition, in the terminal device 20A of the leaving player, in synchronization with the terminal device 20B, interference processing is executed until the generation period ends based on the information regarding the details of the interference.

In this embodiment, the interference process may be executed at a given timing that is predetermined in association with the content of the interference, regardless of the timing of the instruction from the leaving player P1. In such a case as well, the terminal device 20A of the leaving player and the terminal device of the other player who operates the interference target character are synchronized to perform interference processing.

In this embodiment, interference processing is executed until the occurrence period determined in association with the content of interference ends.

[9.1] Execution example of interference processing for a hostile interference target character (a) Execution of interference processing in accordance with the content of interference regarding field of vision When the interference processing unit 223 receives an instruction to execute the content of interference regarding field of vision based on the operation input of player P1, it performs interference processing such that fog (or darkness, hallucinatory image) is generated around character C2 to impair field of vision.

For example, as shown in FIG. 10, when the terminal device 20A of the leaving player P1 receives an instruction to execute the interference content of "visual field", it transmits information about the interference content including translucency information of the fog image to the terminal device 20B of the player P2 whose operation target is the character C2. The terminal device 20A and the terminal device 20B generate and display a misleading image GB of fog generation until the generation period ends.

That is, as shown in FIG. 12, the terminal device 20B synthesizes the fog image GF with the image GB seen from the virtual camera based on the translucency information (α value) of the fog image, generates the image GB1 to be displayed, and displays it on the display unit of the terminal device 20B.

It should be noted that the terminal device 20A of the player P1 may be configured not to generate fog so that the game image displayed on the display unit of the player P1 does not have poor visibility. That is, an image may be generated with α=0 and displayed on the display unit of the terminal device 20A. The display control unit 211 of the terminal device 20A may perform a subtitle display of "Fog is occurring in player P2 on the side of interference: Transparency (α=0.7)" on the game screen. It should be noted that subtitle display/non-display may be controlled by an operation input from the player P1.

(b) Execution of interference processing in accordance with the content of interference regarding placement of hallucinatory objects For example, when the terminal device 20A of the player P1 receives an instruction to execute the content of interference for placing a hallucinatory object, the player P whose operation targets are the terminal device 20A and the character C2.
In the terminal device 20B of No. 2, a misleading image is generated and displayed by arranging the hallucinatory object at the arrangement position.

For example, when the terminal device 20A of the leaving player P1 receives an instruction to execute the interference content of the hallucination (arrangement of the hallucinatory object), it transmits the information about the interference content including the information of the hallucinatory object, the placement position, and the translucent information of the hallucinatory object to the terminal device 20B of the player P2 whose operation target is the character C2. The terminal device 20A and the terminal device 20B generate and display a misleading image in which hallucinatory objects are arranged until the occurrence period ends.

(c) Execution of interference processing according to interference content of friendly fire For example, when the terminal device 20A of player P1 receives an instruction to execute interference content of friendly fire (replacement with a hallucinatory object), it transmits information about the content of interference, including an object to be replaced (for example, character C4) and information on the hallucinatory object, to the terminal device 20B of player P2 whose operation target is character C2. The terminal device 20A and the terminal device 20B generate and display a misleading image in which the object to be replaced is replaced with the hallucinatory object until the occurrence period ends.

(d) Execution of interference processing according to the content of interference regarding sound For example, when the terminal device 20A of player P1 receives an instruction to execute the content of interference regarding sound, information regarding the content of interference including the type of misleading sound (for example, the type of gunshot, footsteps, etc.) is transmitted to the terminal device 20B of player P2 whose operation target is character C2. The terminal device 20A and the terminal device 20B output the misleading voice corresponding to the received type from the speaker until the generation period ends. In other words, the interference processing unit 223 of the terminal device 20A and the terminal device 20B performs processing to reproduce sounds related to footsteps and gunshots as if an enemy were near the character C2 of the player P2 who is being interfered with. The misleading voice is pre-stored in the storage unit 270 of the terminal device.

Since the terminal device 20A of the player P1 also reproduces the misleading voice based on the content of the interference and controls to output the sound from the speaker of the terminal device 20A, the player P1 himself/herself can also recognize that the sound interferes with the game play of the player P2 on the side of interference.

(e) Execution of interference processing according to operation-related interference content When the interference processing unit 223 receives an instruction to execute the operation-related interference content based on the operation input of the player P1, the interference processing unit 223 transmits information about the interference content including the operation input (for example, operation signal, operation command, etc.) of the leaving player P1 to the terminal device 20B of the player P2 whose operation target is the character C2. The terminal device 20A and the terminal device 20B perform processing according to the received operation input of the leaving player P1 until the generation period ends.

Specifically, the interference processing unit 223 controls the character C2 based on the operation input of the player P1 during the occurrence period. In this way, the leaving player P1 can take over and operate the character C2. Note that, according to this embodiment, the player P1 can issue an instruction to execute the content of the interference related to the operation at any timing, and the player can appropriately interfere with the game play of the player P2 who is being interfered with according to the progress of the game.

In other words, when the information about the content of the interference is received, the terminal device 20B receives the operation input of the player P1 until the occurrence period ends, and controls the character C2 based on the operation input of the player P1 instead of the player P2.

For example, when the terminal device 20A of the player P1 receives an instruction to execute interference content related to an operation of impersonating the player P4 and having a chat, information about the interference content including information of the player to be impersonated (for example, information of the player P4), operation input of the leaving player P1, and chat information is transmitted to the terminal device 20B of the player P2 via the server device 10. The terminal device 20B, when receiving the information about the content of the interference, receives the information about the chat based on the operation input of the player P1 until the occurrence period ends, and pretends to be the player P4 to have a chat between the leaving player P1 and the player P2 on the chat screen.

(f) Execution of Interference Processing According to Interference Contents Regarding User Interface The interference processing unit 223 executes interference processing according to the content of interference concerning the user interface based on the operation input of the player P1.

For example, when the terminal device 20A of the player P1 receives an instruction to execute the content of interference that interferes with the user interface based on the operation input of the player P1, the terminal device 20B of the player P2 transmits information about the content of interference including false user interface information (for example, information of false status or false icon) to the terminal device 20B of the player P2 whose operation target is the character C2.

The terminal device 20B, upon receiving the information about the content of the interference, performs processing to display false user interface information until the occurrence period ends.

For example, the terminal device 20B changes and displays a rescue signal icon from a teammate player and a merging signal icon from a ally player to a rescue signal icon from an enemy player or a merging signal icon from an enemy player, and controls to change and display the status (for example, physical strength value, etc.) of the character C2.

Further, for example, when the terminal device 20A of the player P1 receives an instruction to execute the content of interference that hides the user interface (for example, item display, physical strength, etc.) based on the operation input of the player P1, the terminal device 20B of the player P2 transmits information about the content of the interference including the information of hiding the user interface to the terminal device 20B of the player P2 whose operation target is the character C2 via the server device 10.

Upon receiving the information about the content of the interference, the terminal device 20B performs processing to hide the information about the user interface until the occurrence period ends. For example, the terminal device 20B hides the information regarding the user interface until the occurrence period ends. Note that the processing to hide information simply means not to display information related to the user interface, but the range to be hidden may be overwritten with an image such as a smokescreen to be hidden.

In addition, the content of interference with respect to the user interface may be to hide (seal) the panel by superimposing a given mark (for example, an X mark) on the display portion of the panel where the registered item can be immediately used by touching the item. For example, when the terminal device 20B receives the information about the content of the interference, the terminal device 20B superimposes a given mark on the display portion of the panel where the item can be immediately used by touching the registered item until the occurrence period ends.

Interference with the user interface may also change the layout of items within the panel display. For example, when the terminal device 20B receives the information about the content of the interference for the layout change, the terminal device 20B performs processing to change the layout of the items in the panel display until the occurrence period ends.

(g) Execution of Interference Processing According to Behavior-Related Interference Content When the interference processing unit 223 receives an instruction to execute the action-related interference content based on an operation input by the player P1, the interference processing unit 223 transmits, via the server device 10, information about the interference content including the behavior information (for example, speed) of the character C2 to the terminal device 20B of the player P2 whose operation target is the character C2.

For example, when receiving the information about the content of the interference, the terminal device 20B performs movement control and motion control of the interference target character C2 based on the speed until the occurrence period ends. That is, when the speed V of the character C2 is the speed of V1 (V1>0) in the normal time, the speed V of the character C2 during the occurrence period is set to the speed of V2 (V1>V2>0) to slow down the movement and action of the character C2.

Further, when receiving the information about the content of the interference, the terminal device 20B may perform control to make it difficult to set the aim of the character C2 by disabling a part of the operation such as the aiming setting operation, blurring (moving) the aiming position, or slowing down the aiming setting operation.

(h) Execution of interference content related to parameter change When the interference processing unit 223 receives an instruction to execute interference content related to parameter change based on the operation input of the player P1, the information related to the parameter change (for example, the name of the parameter to be changed, the rate of change, etc.) related to the interference content is transmitted to the terminal device 20B of the player P2 whose operation target is the character C2.

For example, when the terminal device 20B receives the information about the content of the interference, the parameter name to be changed (eg, attack power) is changed according to the rate of change (eg, 10% decrease) until the occurrence period ends. Perform control. For example, the terminal device 20B performs control to reduce the attack power of the character C2 by 10%. When the server device 10 manages the parameter of the character C2, the server device 10 performs control to change the parameter to be changed (for example, attack power) according to the change rate.

(i) Simultaneous Execution of Plurality of Interference Contents The interference processing unit 223 may simultaneously execute a plurality of interference content based on an operation input by the player P1. For example, an interference content related to hallucinations and an interference content related to sounds (auditory hallucinations) may be performed at the same time. By doing so, it is possible to synergistically influence the other character C2 and the like.

[9.2] Execution example of interference processing for an interference target character in a friendly relationship (a) Interference content related to voice For example, when the terminal device 20A of player P1 receives an instruction to execute interference content related to voice, it transmits information related to the content of interference including the type of warning voice (for example, the type of voice) to the terminal device 20C of player P3 whose operation target is character C3. The terminal device 20A and the terminal device 20C output sound corresponding to the received type from the speaker until the generation period ends. Note that the voice is pre-stored in the storage unit 270 of the terminal device.

Note that the terminal device 20A of the player P1 also reproduces the sound for calling attention and is controlled to output the sound from the speaker of the terminal device 20A, so the player P1 himself can recognize that he is supporting the player P3 who is being interfered with.

(b) Action-Related Interference Content When the interference processing unit 223 receives an instruction to execute an action-related interference content based on an operation input by the player P1, the interference processing unit 223 transmits information about the interference content, including action information (for example, speed) of the character C3, to the terminal device 20C of the player P3 whose operation target is the character C3, via the server device 10.

For example, when receiving the information about the content of the interference, the terminal device 20C performs movement control and motion control of the interference target character C3 based on the speed until the occurrence period ends. That is, when the speed V of the character C3 is the speed of V1 (V1>0) in the normal time, the speed V of the character C3 during the generation period is set to the speed of V3 (V3>V1>0) to speed up the movement and action of the character C3.

Further, when receiving the information about the content of the interference, the terminal device 20C may perform control to make aiming position of the character C3 easy by allowing the position of the aiming to match the position of the enemy until the occurrence period ends.

(c) Content of interference related to parameter change The content of interference determination unit 222 performs control to change the name of the parameter to be changed (for example, attack power) according to the rate of change (for example, increase by 10%) until the occurrence period ends. For example, the interference content determination unit 222 performs control to increase the attack power of the character C3 by 10%.

[9.3] Interference Position The interference processing section 223 may execute interference processing based on the interference target character and the interference position in the game space. For example, the interference processing unit 223 of the present embodiment may control the interference content to generate fog so that it can be executed when the interference target character C2 belongs to the fog generation range in the game space.

Further, the interference processing unit 223 sets an interference possible range with a radius of 30 meters centered on the position of the timing when the character C1 to be operated by the leaving player P1 leaves. For example, the interference processing unit 223 may execute the interference processing when the character C2 to be interfered belongs to the interference possible range.

[9.4] Display Screen FIG. 10 is an example of the game screen GA displayed on the terminal device 20A of the leaving player P1. For example, on the game screen GA, a list LS of possible interference contents for the interference target character C2 is displayed in an image viewed from a virtual camera following the interference target character C2.

For example, the interference processing unit 223, based on the operation input of the leaving player P1, sets the timing at which the execution button for the content of the interference of "sight" is received as the timing of interference for the content of interference, and executes the interference processing according to the content of the interference of "sight." In this way, the leaving player P1 can appropriately determine the timing of interference according to the content of each interference. The terminal device 20A deletes the executed interference content from the interference content list LS.

[9.5] Interference Processing for Multiple Interference Target Characters When there are multiple interference target characters, the interference processing unit 223 may collectively execute the same interference content for the multiple interference target characters.

For example, as shown in FIG. 11, the terminal device 20A of the leaving player P1 displays images GX1 and GX2 depicting a plurality of interference target characters on the game screen GA, and displays a list LS of common executable interference contents for the plurality of characters C2 and C4.

Then, based on the operation input of the leaving player P1, the interference processing unit 223 sets the timing of receiving the execution button of the content of the interference of "visual field" as the timing of interference of the content of interference, and executes the interference processing according to the content of the interference of "visual field". In this way, it is possible to collectively interfere with a plurality of characters C2 and C4. The terminal device 20A deletes the executed interference content from the interference content list LS.

Further, when there are a plurality of interference target characters, the interference processing unit 223 may individually execute the interference content for each of the plurality of interference target characters. In such a case, the terminal device 20 individually displays the characters to be interfered, accepts an execution button corresponding to the content of the interference of the character, and executes interference processing corresponding to the content of the interference.

[9.6] Temporary Interference Cancellation Further, the interference processing unit 222 may perform control to temporarily cancel interference (interference is prohibited for only one minute) when a player (for example, player P2) operating a character on the side of interference (for example, character C2) receives a predetermined operation input (for example, continuous input of a predetermined button for a predetermined period of time).

[9.7] Method of Automatically Executing Interference Processing The interference processing section 223 may automatically execute interference processing at a given timing without depending on the operation input of the leaving player P1. For example, the interference processing unit 223 selects a given interference content from the list LS of executable interference content determined by the interference content determination unit 222, and executes interference processing according to the selected interference content. The execution timing of the interference process is a predetermined timing associated with the content of the interference, or a predetermined timing (for example, 20 minutes after the start of the game, the attack timing of the interference opponent, etc.).

[10] Interference level The interference content determination unit 222 of this embodiment sets the interference level. For example, the interference content determination unit 222 of the terminal device 20A of the player P1 sets the interference level according to the interference content for each interference content. Also, the interference level can be changed according to the progress of the game. Note that the interference content determination unit 222 may set a common interference level for each interference content.

[10.1] Interference level of interference content for hostile interference target character The interference content determination unit 222 controls the hostile interference target character so that the higher the interference level, the more disadvantageous the interference target character is subjected to the interference processing.

For example, the interference content determination unit 222 may determine the interference level based on at least one of the type of attack (weapon, etc.) made by the character C2 as the interference target against the character C1, attack parameters (attack value, total attack value, damage value, total damage value, number of hits), attack attribute, and attack timing from the start of the game.

For example, the interference content determination unit 222 sets the interference level based on at least one of (A) to (E) below. If a plurality of items among (A) to (G) apply, the interference level may be determined to be a high value or a low value.

(A) For example, the interference content determination unit 222 determines the interference level to be 3 when the interference target character C2 attacks with a specific weapon such as a spear.

(B) Further, the interference content determining unit 222 increases the interference level as the attack value of the character C2 to be interfered with increases. For example, the interference content determination unit 222 sets the interference level to 1 when the attack value is 1 to 10, sets the interference level to 2 when the attack value is 11 to 20, and sets the interference level to 3 when the attack value is 21 or more.

(C) Further, the interference content determination unit 222 increases the interference level as the damage value increases. For example, the interference content determination unit 222 sets the interference level to 1 when the damage value is 1 to 10, sets the interference level to 2 when the damage value is 11 to 20, and sets the interference level to 3 when the damage value is 21 or more.

(D) Further, the interference content determination unit 222 determines the interference level to be 3 when the attack attribute is a predetermined attribute (for example, the attribute of “fire”).

(E) Further, the interference content determination unit 222 increases the interference level as the number of hits increases. For example, the interference content determination unit 222 sets the interference level to 1 when the number of hits is 1 to 10, determines the interference level to 2 when the number of hits is 11 to 20, and determines the interference level to 3 when the number of hits is 21 or more.

(F) If the attack timing from the start of the game is less than 10 minutes, the interference level is set to "1", if it is 10 minutes or more and less than 20 minutes, the interference level is set to "2", and if it is 20 minutes or more to less than 30 minutes, the interference level is set to "3".

(G) If the timing at which player P1 leaves the game is within a predetermined period of time (for example, within 3 minutes) from the start of the game, the interference level may be set to "3" to increase the player's degree of interference.

(H) If the level of the character fluctuates in the range of 1 to 99, the level of the character C1 is 10 and the level of the character to be interfered is 11. If the level difference is less than 10, the interference level is set to "1".

Next, a method of determining the content of interference according to the interference level will be described. For example, the interference content determining unit 222 sets the α value of the fog image GF to 0<α<0.3 at the interference level 1, sets the α value of the fog image GF to 0.3≦α<0.7 at the interference level 2, and sets the α value of the fog image GF to 0.7≦α≦1 at the interference level 3. In this way, the higher the interference level, the poorer the field of vision, so that the character C2 of the player who is interfered can be put in a disadvantageous situation.

In addition, as shown in FIGS. 13A, 13B, and 13C, the image generation unit 230 may prepare three fog images GF1 to GF3 having different sizes of fog in advance, and generate the image GB using the fog images corresponding to the interference levels.

For example, the image generator 230 generates the image GB using the fog image GF1 with the smallest range at the interference level 1, generates the image GF2 with the fog image GF2 with the larger fog range than the fog image GF1 at the interference level 2, and generates the image GB with the fog image GF3 with the larger fog range than the fog image GF2 at the interference level 3. In this way, the higher the interference level, the more fog and the poorer the field of vision, so that the character C2 of the player who is interfered with can be put in a disadvantageous situation.

Further, the interference content determination unit 222 may set the transparency of the illusory object according to the interference level of the interference content regarding the placement of the psychedelic object.

Further, the interference content determination unit 222 may increase the types of audio data or increase the volume as the interference level increases. For example, the interference content determination part 222 can set the misleading voice of only the footsteps in the case of the interference level 1, the misleading voices of the footsteps and the gunshot in the case of the interference level 2, and the misleading voices including the footsteps, gunshots, pinch sounds, etc. in the case of the interference level 3. In this way, the higher the level of interference, the more disturbing sound is generated, so that the character C2 of the player who is being interfered with can be put in a disadvantageous situation.

Further, the interference content determination unit 222 may increase the types of operations that can be interfered with regarding the interference content regarding the operation as the interference level increases.

Further, the interference content determination unit 222 may increase the number of items to be hidden in the user interface as the interference level increases.

Further, the interference content determination part 222 reduces the parameter (for example, attack power) of the fighting game of the character C2 to be interfered by 10% when the interference level is 1, by 20% when the interference level is 2, and by 30% when the interference level is 3.
[10.2] Interference Level of Interference Contents for Interference Target Character in Friendly Relationship The interference level of interference content may also be set for an interference target character in friendly relationship in the present embodiment. For example, the interference content determination unit 222 determines the interference level based on at least one of the type of support (medicinal herbs, etc.) given to the character C1 by the interference target character C3, parameters related to support (recovery value, total recovery value), support attributes, and attack timing from the start of the game.

For example, the interference content determination unit 222 sets the interference level based on at least one of (A) to (E) below. If more than one item among (A) to (E) applies, the interference level is determined to be a high value.

(A) For example, the interference content determination unit 222 determines the interference level to be 3 when the interference target character C3 is healed with a special medicine.

(B) Further, the interference content determination unit 222 increases the interference level as the recovery value of the character C3 to be interfered increases. For example, the interference content determination unit 222 sets the interference level to 1 when the recovery value is 1 to 10, determines the interference level to 2 when the recovery value is 11 to 20, and determines the interference level to 3 when the recovery value is 21 or more.

(C) Further, the interference content determination unit 222 determines the interference level to be 3 when the recovery attribute is a predetermined attribute (for example, the attribute of “light”).

(D) If the recovery timing from the start of the game is less than 10 minutes, the interference level is set to "1", if it is 10 minutes or more and less than 20 minutes, the interference level is set to "2", and if it is 20 minutes or more to less than 30 minutes, the interference level is set to "3".

(E) Further, if the player P1 left the game within a predetermined period of time (for example, within 3 minutes) from the start of the game, the interference level may be set to "3" to increase the player's degree of interference.

Then, for example, the interference content determination unit 222 may increase the parameters (attack power, defense power, etc.) relating to the battle game of the character C3 to be interfered. Specifically, the interference content determination part 222 increases the parameters relating to the battle game of the character C2 to be interfered by 10% when the interference level is 1, by 20% when the interference level is 2, and by 30% when the interference level is 3.

[10.3] Interference Level and Occurrence Period The interference content determination unit 222 may perform control so that the occurrence period of the interference content increases as the interference level of the interference content increases for each interference content.

[10.4] Change of Interference Level Further, the interference content determining section 222 may control the interference level to decrease over time. For example, the interference level may be decreased by 1 each time five minutes have elapsed since the player P1 left the game (the minimum value of the interference level is "1").

[11] Interference Possible Parameter The terminal device 20 of the present embodiment sets an interference possible parameter (interference possible number of times) in association with the identification information of the leaving player. For example, 10 is set as the initial value of the interference possible parameter. Note that the server device 10 may receive the player's interference enablement parameter from each terminal device 20 and manage the interference enablement parameter for each player.

The interference content determining unit 222 determines an interference value in association with each interference content, as shown in FIG. Then, the interference processing unit 223 executes the content of interference on the condition that the interference value corresponding to the content of interference is consumed (decreased) from the interference possible parameter.

For example, the interference content determination unit 222 may determine the interference value such that the higher the interference level of the interference content, the higher the interference value, or the longer the occurrence period of the interference content, the higher the interference value.

In this way, the leaving player P1 becomes conscious of the remaining amount of the interference-enabled parameter, and the enjoyment of the game can be improved.

[12] Change of content of interference The content of interference determination unit 222 may change the content of interference when the interference change condition is satisfied. Changing the content of interference includes not only changing the content of interference to another one, but also changing the level of content of interference and parameters that allow interference.

For example, the interference content determination unit 222 determines that the interference change condition is satisfied when the interference target character C2 acquires an item to ward off evil spirits, and changes the interference content level to the minimum value (interference level 1) in the terminal device 20A of the leaving player P1.

Further, the interference content determination unit 222 may determine that the interference change condition is satisfied when the interference target character C2 acquires the talisman item, and shorten the occurrence period of each interference content in the terminal device 20A of the leaving player P1 by a predetermined period (for example, 10 seconds).

Further, the interference content determination unit 222 determines that the interference change condition is satisfied when the interference target character C2 receives an item to ward off evil spirits from the companion character C4, and reduces the interference possible parameter of the leaving player P1. For example, a value (for example, 5) corresponding to the talisman item is subtracted from the interferable parameter.

[13] Change of Interference Target Character The interference content determination unit 222 controls the interference target character to be changeable. For example, the interference content determination unit 222 may change the character to be interfered with according to the progress of the game. When the character to be interfered is changed, the content of interference for the changed character to be interfered is determined.

For example, if the character to be interfered with by the departing player P1 has left for some reason, another character newly living in the game space becomes the object of interference. For example, a new interference target character may be determined based on an operation input by the leaving player P1, or a new interference target character may be determined based on the analysis result of the analysis unit 221. FIG.

[14] Interference termination condition The interference processing unit 223 prohibits interference processing when the interference termination condition is satisfied. For example, as described above, the interference processing unit 223 determines that the interference termination condition is satisfied when the interference possible parameter of the leaving player P1 reaches a predetermined value (for example, 0), and controls to prohibit interference.

Further, the interference content determination unit 222 may determine an effective period of interference (for example, 5 minutes) from the time when the player P1 withdraws from the battle game, determine that the interference end condition is satisfied when the effective period of interference expires, and prohibit the interference.

Further, the interference processing unit 222 may determine that the interference end condition is satisfied when the initially determined interference target character has left the battle game, and prohibit the execution of the interference processing. In such a case, changing the character to be interfered with is also prohibited.

As described above, according to the present embodiment, since the execution of the interference processing is prohibited when the interference end condition is satisfied, the interference processing can be prohibited appropriately.

[15] Display mode [15.1] Game screen of leaving player The game system of this embodiment displays the game screen of the leaving player P1 on the display section of the leaving player P1. In such a case, the display control unit 211 of the terminal device 20A of the leaving player P1 distinguishes and displays a game screen in which the character C1 of the leaving player P1 and the interference target character are in a hostile relationship and a game screen in which the character C1 of the leaving player P1 and the interference target character are in an allied relationship. In this way, the leaving player P1 can easily determine whether the interference target character is in a hostile relationship or a friendly relationship, and appropriate interference can be performed.

[15.2] Game Screen of Interfered Player In this embodiment, the display control unit 211 of the terminal device 20 of the player who operates the interference target character distinguishes and displays the game screen when the character C1 of the leaving player P1 and the interference target character are in a hostile relationship and the game screen when the leaving player character and the interference target character are in an allied relationship. In this way, the player to be interfered with can easily determine whether the character C1 of the leaving player P1 is in a hostile relationship or an ally relationship, and can be prepared. For example, it becomes possible to become conscious of being cursed by someone or being protected by someone, thereby enhancing the interest of the game.

For example, when the terminal device 20A of the leaving player P1 determines a hostile interference target character C2, it transmits interference information to the terminal device 20B of the player P2 operating the character C2 via the server device 10. Here, the interference information is identification information (for example, P1) of the leaving player P1 (interfering player), and relationship information (for example, hostile relationship information) between the leaving player P1 and the player P2.

Upon receiving the interference information, the display control unit 211 of the terminal device 20B displays the game screen based on the interference information. Specifically, with reference to FIG. 15, the terminal device 20B of the player P2 who operates the character C2 displays a game screen GB including a red image WR and a message MA saying "You are cursed by the enemy withdrawal player P1" on the display unit.

For example, when the terminal device 20A of the leaving player P1 determines an interference target character C3 in a friendly relationship, the interference information is transmitted via the server device 10 to the terminal device 20C of the player P3 operating the character C3. Here, the interference information is the identification information (for example, P1) of the leaving player P1 (interfering player), and the relationship information (for example, teammate relationship information) between the leaving player P1 and the player P2.

Upon receiving the interference information, the display control unit 211 of the terminal device 20C displays the game screen based on the interference information. More specifically, referring to FIG. 16, the terminal device 20C of the player P3 who operates the character C3 displays a game screen GC including a blue image WB and a message MB saying "You are being protected by your ally withdrawal player P1" on the display unit.

The terminal device 20 of the interfered player (for example, the players P2 and P3) may be allowed to view the list LS of the interference details of the interfering player (leaving player P1) when using a predetermined interference content viewing item.

[16] Notification Control The information providing unit 108 of the server device 10 generates notification information and provides (transmits) it to the corresponding terminal device 20 . The server device 10 provides information indicating interference to the terminal device 20 of the player on the side of interference.

In addition, the server device 10 provides each terminal device 20 of a player operating a living character other than the interference target character with information indicating that the leaving player P1 is interfering with the interference target character.

Further, the notification unit of the terminal device 20 of the present embodiment performs control to notify the player when information is received from the server device 10 . The “notification” may be, for example, the above-described display notification or audio notification. Specifically, the notification may be an in-game notification, a terminal device notification, an e-mail notification, a given messaging application program notification, or a posting from an operator who provides support information (a given web page posting).

[16.1] Notification to Interfered Player The notification unit 224 of the present embodiment notifies the player operating the interference target character (that is, the interfered player P2, P3, etc.) with information indicating that interference has occurred. The display control described above is also an example of notification.

In this way, the players P2, P3, etc., who operate the characters to be interfered with can know that they are being interfered with, and can play the game while being aware of whether they are cursed by an enemy or protected by an ally.

[16.2] Notification to third party The notification unit 224 of the present embodiment may notify the player operating a surviving character other than the interference target character of information indicating that the leaving player P1 is interfering with the interference target character.

In this way, a player who operates a surviving character other than the character to be interfered with can know that the leaving player is interfering with the character to be interfered with, and can play the game with an awareness of, for example, who is cursed by whom, or who is protected by whom.

For example, when the leaving player P1 is interfering with the interference target character C2, the player P5 operating the surviving character C5 other than the interference target character is notified. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 17, the display control unit 211 of the terminal device 20E of the player P5 displays the game screen GE including the message MC "The enemy character C2 is cursed by the player P1" on the display unit. The message MC may include information indicating whether the interference target character C2 is an ally character or an enemy character for the player P5.

[17] Flowchart An example of the flow of processing when the player P1 has left the terminal device 20A of the player P1 will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG.

First, it is determined whether or not the character C1 to be operated by the player P1 has left the battle game (step S1).

When the character C1 to be operated by the player P1 leaves the battle game (Y in step S1), the game situation regarding the leaving is analyzed (step S2).

A surviving character is determined as a character to be interfered with (step S3). For example, the interference target character may be determined based on the analysis result, or another character selected based on the operation input by the player P1 may be determined as the interference target character.

Then, based on the analysis result, the content of interference with respect to the character to be interfered is determined (step S4).

Interference processing is executed according to the details of the interference based on the operation input by the player P1 (step S5).

It is determined whether or not the interference termination condition is satisfied (step S6), and if the interference termination condition is satisfied (Y in step S6), the process is terminated. On the other hand, if the interference termination condition is not satisfied (N of step S6), the process returns to step S5. After that, the processing ends.

[18] Return of Detached Player The game system of this embodiment may or may not have a rule that allows a detached player to return as a surviving player. For example, in a battle royale game played to survive within a time limit of 30 minutes, player P1 may withdraw when five minutes have passed since the start of the game, and after that, when the condition of the predetermined rule is satisfied when twenty-five minutes have passed since the start of the game, player P1 may return.

For example, the interference end condition may be a predetermined rule. When the player P1 returns, the physical strength of the character C1 to be operated by the player P1 is set to an initial value (for example, 100) so that the ongoing battle game can be played.
