Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To enable operation improved in the reality of action of a game character for handling a play object and full of tension. SOLUTION: A dash action discriminating part 110 discriminates whether a ball is positioned within an effective dash range or not when a dash operation is performed by an operating part 10. When it is discriminated that the ball is positioned within the effective range, a dash operation instructing part 112 instructs the acceleration of moving speed of the game character. When the operating part 10 operates a ball pitching operation from the game character which catches up the ball by dash, corresponding to the moving direction of game character and the pitching direction of ball, an action display changing part 114 changes the action display of game character. Thus, the action such as catching the ball by dashing the game character or performing running throw or glove toss corresponding to the dash direction at that time can be displayed.

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an operating method and a game device used in a game device.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, as shown in FIG. 13, a game controller 900 provided in a main unit 920 is used to display a display 9
There is known a game device of a type in which a display object displayed on 22 is operated to enjoy a game. Taking a baseball game as an example, the player operates the batter game character 924 or the pitcher game character 926, etc., and the batter game character 924 hits the ball 930 thrown from the pitcher game character 926 with a bat 928 to play the game. have fun. According to this game device, since it is possible to give the player a feeling of actually playing baseball, it is highly popular as a game.

Now, in this game apparatus, the batter game character 924 is used to play the ball 9
When 30 is hit back, the defending player operates a fielder game character (not shown) to catch the ball 930 and send it to a desired base. However, in the conventional game devices, in such a ball catching operation, the player can only operate the moving direction of the fielder game character by using the direction instruction key 902. For this reason, the effect of catching / sending the ball is insufficient and
There was little sense of urgency during the ball throwing motion, and the skill of the player could not be reflected in the ball catching and ball throwing motions.

The present invention has been made to solve the above problems, and an object of the present invention is to enhance the realism of the motion of a game character handling an object to be played and the operation skill of the player. An object of the present invention is to provide an operation method and a game device that enable an operation with a sense of tension that reflects the above.

[0005]

In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the present invention is used in a game device for displaying a display object including a game character and an object to be played, using a given operation means. An operating method to be performed, wherein the moving direction of the game character and the play target are made when the operation means performs an operation of releasing the play target from a game character that moves in a given direction and catches up with the play target. It is characterized in that the action display of the game character performed after the operation is changed according to the direction in which the object is released.

According to the present invention, when an operation of throwing a ball from a game character catching up with an object to be played, for example, a ball, such as a ball throwing operation, a kick operation, a hit (stroke) operation, etc., is performed, The operation display is changed based on the moving direction and the direction in which the ball or the like is released. In the case of a baseball game, for example, when the moving direction and the throwing direction are both forward, an operation display such as a running throw is displayed, and when the throwing direction is backward with respect to the moving direction, an operation such as a half-turn jumping throw is performed. The display is done. Therefore, according to the present invention, it is possible to improve a realistic feeling of expression such as a ball-sending operation which has been monotonous until now. Further, according to the present invention, it is possible to select the operation display that allows the player to throw the ball in the fastest direction in accordance with the direction of the ball when performing the ball-sending operation, which makes it possible to perform a ball-sending operation with a greater sense of speed.

In this case, according to the present invention, in addition to the moving direction and the direction in which the play object is released, the motion display of the game character performed after the operation is performed according to the distance to the movement target of the play object. It is desirable to change. By doing this, taking a baseball game as an example,
Even when the moving direction and the ball-sending direction are both forward, when the distance is short, it is possible to display an operation display such as Grabtos instead of the normal ball-sending operation display. As a result, it is possible to further improve the realism of the operation display.

Further, the present invention is an operation method used for a game device for displaying a display object including a game character and an object to be played, which is an operation method performed by using given operation means, wherein a dash motion is performed by the operation means. It is determined whether or not the position of the play target at the time when the instructed operation is performed is within the effective range of the dash motion by the game character, and if it is determined to be within the effective range, the moving speed of the game character. It is characterized by instructing the acceleration of.

According to the present invention, when a dash operation is performed, it is determined whether or not a play object such as a ball is within the dash effective range, and if it is within the effective range, the speed of the game character is determined. Get faster This increases the possibility of catching a ball, kicking, hitting and the like. As a result, the probability of catching a ball is increased for a player who has an excellent operation skill and can easily enter the dash mode.
The difference in operation skill can be reflected in the movements such as catching and throwing.

After the dash, when the game character catching up with the play object releases the play object, based on the moving direction of the game character, the release direction of the play object, and the like. It is desirable to change the operation display. By doing this, it is possible to make the game character accelerated by the dash perform a quick ball throwing action according to the direction of the dash at that time, and further reflect the difference in the operation skill of the player in the action of ball catching, ball throwing, etc. It will be possible.

In this case, in the present invention, it is desirable to perform an operation for instructing a dash motion and an operation for releasing the play object from the game character after the dash motion by using one operation button. With this configuration, a series of operations such as dash and ball throwing can be performed without releasing the finger from the one operation button, and operability can be improved.

Further, in the present invention, the above-mentioned 1 operation button is
It is formed so that an operation amount of a different size can be input according to the size of the pressed depth, and whether or not the operation for instructing a dash operation is judged by the operation button input by the 1 operation button. You may make it judge by operation amount. By doing so, it becomes possible to shift to a mode other than the dash mode depending on the amount of operation, for example, and the variety of operations can be improved.

[0013]

BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION An example of an embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 shows an example of a functional block diagram of a game device capable of realizing the operation method and the like of this embodiment. Here, the operation unit 12 corresponds to a game controller when a home game device is taken as an example, and the operation information obtained by the operation unit 12 is input to the processing unit 100. Processing unit 10
0 performs calculations for operating display objects such as game characters, balls, bats, etc. based on this operation information and a given program or the like. The image composition unit 200 includes the processing unit 1.
The game images are combined according to the instruction from 00 and the like is output to the display unit 10.

FIG. 2 shows an example of the game controller which is the operation unit 12. The direction instruction key 14 is used to specify a course of the ball when the pitcher throws the ball, to specify a base when the ball is sent, to specify a direction in which the fielder moves, and the like. The operation button group 16
Is for determining the timing at which the pitcher throws the ball, the timing at which the batter swings the bat, and the timing at which the fielder catches and sends the ball.

In the present embodiment, the operation button 18 is formed so that an operation amount of a different size can be input according to the size of the pressed depth d. That is, for example, when the pushed depth d is large, the operation amount becomes large, and when d is small, the operation amount becomes small. Then, as will be described later, in the present embodiment, the selection judgment as to whether or not the dash operation is performed is made based on the magnitude of the operation amount. Furthermore, the trajectory, accuracy, etc. of the thrown ball are also changed based on the magnitude of this operation amount. The operation amount may be input by using a button other than the operation button 18, such as L and R buttons 20 and 22.

In the present embodiment, the dash motion determination unit 110 shown in FIG. 1 determines that the position of the ball (play object) is
It is determined whether the dash operation is within the valid range. When it is determined that the game character is within the effective range, the moving speed of the game character is accelerated by the instruction of the dash operation instructing unit 112. Then, when the game character catches up with the ball by the dash motion and the ball is thrown by the operation unit 12, the action display of the game character is changed based on the moving direction of the game character, the ball throwing direction, and the like. . The operation display change unit 114 changes the operation display. The above processing will be described in more detail below.

First, as shown in FIG. 3D, in the normal moving state, the game character is moving in the direction designated by the direction designating keys 14 or the like. Then, as shown in E of FIG. 3, when the ball 20 is within the dash effective range,
When the player performs a dash operation, the moving speed of the game character is accelerated to, for example, about 5 times the normal speed. By accelerating the game character, the possibility of catching the ball 20 increases, and so-called fine play in baseball can be expressed. That is, in the present embodiment, the ball 20 is caught on the condition that the game character and the ball 20 are within a given distance range. 20 and 20 can be easily accommodated within the given distance range, and the possibility of catching the ball 20 can be increased. It is relatively easy for a player having a good operation skill to perform the dash operation when the ball 20 enters the dash effective range. Therefore, a player having a good operation skill can enter the dash mode more easily, and can increase the possibility of catching a ball. On the other hand, it is difficult for a player having a poor operation skill to perform the dash operation when it is within the dash effective range, and it is difficult to enter the dash mode. Therefore, the possibility of catching a ball cannot be increased. That is, according to the present embodiment, the operation skill of the game possessed by each player can be reflected in the ball catching technique,
As a result, the realism and tension of the game can be significantly increased.

It should be noted that whether or not the ball 20 is within the dash effective range is determined by the dash movement determination section 110. This is, for example, to judge whether or not the ball 20 exists in a circle, a sphere, a square, a cube, a quadrangle, a rectangular parallelepiped, etc. around the position E (the position where the dash operation is performed) in FIG. Can be achieved with.

Further, in this embodiment, the dash operation and the ball throwing operation are performed using the same operation button 18. By doing so, the player can continuously perform a series of operations such as starting a dash, catching a dash, and a baseball without releasing the finger from the operation button 18. As a result, it is possible to realize an unprecedented movement of the fielder game character without forcing the player to perform a complicated operation, and it is possible to increase the fun of the game while maintaining the easiness of the game operation.

Further, in the present embodiment, whether or not the dash operation is performed is determined by the magnitude of the operation amount input by the operation button 18 (see FIG. 2). That is, operation button 1
When the operation amount of 8 is small, for example, it is determined that the dash operation is instructed. On the other hand, when the operation amount is large,
For example, it is determined that another operation such as a sliding catch or a jumping catch has been instructed. In this sliding catch operation or the like, the game character falls down in the direction of the ball 20. As a result, the catching range of the ball is expanded and the possibility of catching the ball is increased. However, in the case of a sliding catch, the game character
After standing up from the collapsed position, the player will perform the pitching action. Therefore, a large amount of wasted time is spent by that amount, and the pitching to the base is delayed. On the other hand, when a ball is dashed and sent, the ball can be sent in the dash position, so that the ball can be sent to the base faster than with a sliding catch or the like. Then, a player with a good operation skill can finely adjust the operation amount and press the operation button 18 weakly, so that it is possible to easily select the transition to the dash mode, and as a result, it is possible to send the ball to the base earlier. You will be able to

As shown in F of FIG. 3, after catching the ball with a dash, as shown in G of FIG. 3, a ball-sending operation (an operation of releasing an object to be played) of the ball 20 is performed. A ball is thrown to the base 22 (the movement target of the play target). At this time, the selection of the base 22 is performed by, for example, the direction key 14 or the like.

In the present embodiment, when the ball-sending operation is executed during the dash after the dash is caught, the action display of the game character is displayed according to the ball-sending direction with respect to the dash direction of the game character and the ball-sending distance. Have changed. The change of the operation display is performed by the operation display changing unit 114.

FIG. 4 shows an example of table data showing the relationship between the ball throwing direction (with respect to the dash direction) and the ball throwing distance, and the motion display pattern. The throwing distance is 10 to 30
If m, then: For example, when the throwing direction is forward with respect to the dash direction, a running throw motion display as shown in FIG. That is, in this case, since there is a base in the direction of the dash and the direction of the dash and the direction of the ball are almost the same direction, the game character 30 accelerated by the dash moves the ball 20 to the base with the posture of running as it is. Send a ball.
At this time, since the game character 30 can send the ball 20 without falling down, the game character 30 can send the ball to the base faster than in the case where a sliding catch or the like is performed.

When the throwing direction is to the left of the dash direction, the operation display of the falling snap throw is displayed as shown in FIG. 5 (B). That is, in this case,
Although he goes into the fall motion, he quickly regains his posture from the unstable condition after the fall and catches, and quickly throws the ball by snap-throw. Therefore, also in this case, the ball 20 can be sent to the base faster than in the case where the sliding catch or the like is performed.

When the throwing direction is to the right of the dash direction, the full rotation jumping throw operation is displayed as shown in FIG. 6 (A). That is, in this case,
It is thought that the moving energy generated by the dash has been converted into rotational energy, and the ball will be thrown to the base while jumping. Therefore, an operation such as a fall is not entered, and a quick ball can be sent.

When the throwing direction is rearward with respect to the dash direction, as shown in FIG. 6B, the operation display of the half-turn jumping throw is performed. That is, even in this case,
It is thought that the moving energy due to the dash has been converted into rotational energy, and the ball is sent without falling down, so a quick ball can be sent.

In the present embodiment, the operation display is changed in consideration of the throwing distance. For example, in the above, when the throwing direction is forward and the throwing distance is 10 to 30 m, the running throw operation display is as shown in FIG. 5 (A). On the other hand, even if the throwing direction is forward as well, if the throwing distance is as short as 5 m or less,
The operation display of the front grabtos as shown in FIG.
That is, when the ball-sending distance is short, a base-ball can be thrown by a toss motion with a small motion without a running throw or the like. Therefore, in order to express this, in the present embodiment, if the throwing distance is short even if the throwing direction is the same, the operation display is changed to Grabtoss or the like to enable quick throwing. Further, for example, the throwing direction is left and the throwing distance is 10
When the length is up to 30 m, the operation display of the collapsed snap throw as shown in FIG. On the other hand, even if the throwing direction is leftward, the throwing distance is 30
When the length is long from m to 50, a normal throw operation after braking is displayed as shown in FIG. 7 (B). That is, when the throwing distance is long, it is considered that it is difficult to send the throwing ball to the base with a snap throw or the like. Therefore, in order to express this, in this embodiment, if the throwing distance is long even if the throwing direction is the same, the operation display is changed to normal throw or the like, thereby improving the realism.

Next, the characteristic processing in the ball sending operation of this embodiment will be briefly described. In the present embodiment, an operation amount range setting unit (not shown) (included in the processing unit 100) sets a plurality of operation amount ranges that divide the operation amount range input by the operation unit 12. Then, a movement state setting information changing unit (included in the processing unit 100) (not shown) sets information for setting the movement state of a display object such as a ball, a bat, or a game character in the operation amount range to which the input operation amount belongs. Change accordingly. That is, as shown in the division 40 of FIG. 8A, the operation amount range is divided into, for example, first to fifth operation amount ranges 42 to 49. Here, the operation amount corresponds to the depth d of the operation button 18 pressed. Then, in the present embodiment, the information for setting the moving state of the display object, for example, the moving trajectory / moving speed of the display object, the moving accuracy, etc. are changed according to the operation amount range to which the operation amount belongs. For example, when the operation amount belongs to the first operation amount range 42, it is determined that the weak ball B has been thrown. Then, the trajectory of the ball is set to be the mountain ball C shown in FIG. 8B with a probability of 100%. When the manipulated variable belongs to the second manipulated variable range 44, it is determined that the weak ball A has been thrown, and the trajectory of the ball is set so that the ball becomes the mountain ball A and the mountain ball B with a probability of 50%. The same applies to the case of the third to fifth manipulated variable ranges 46 to 49. Further, in the present embodiment, the operation amount range is changed according to the game situation when the operation button is operated, for example, the situation such as the distance between the fielder sending the ball and the base. More specifically, as shown in FIG. 8 (A), the division 40 when the throw distance, which is the distance to the moving target (base) of the ball, is 0 to 10 m, and the division 50 when it is 10 to 15 m. , The operation amount range is set differently. That is, division 50
In the case of (10 to 15 m), division 40 (0 to 10 m
Compared to the case of m), the fourth operation amount range 58, which is the range in which the trajectory of the ball is optimum, shifts further downward (the direction in which the operation button is pushed deeper). Therefore, the player has to push the operation button deeper as the throwing distance becomes longer, and the superiority or inferiority of the operating skill of the player can be reflected in the throwing operation.

Further, in this embodiment, not only the operation amount range but also the time until the operation amount reaches the value of the operation amount range to which the input operation amount belongs, the movement trajectory, the movement speed, and the movement accuracy. Etc. have been changed. More specifically,
For example, as shown in FIG. 9, the left and right shake probability (ball movement accuracy) of the pitch is changed according to the time until the operation amount range (depth step) is reached. For example, when the pressing speed (the speed until the operation amount reaches the first operation amount range) is 0 inter (the earliest pressing time), the blurring degree is 0.
The probability that the blur is the smallest is 89%, the probability that the blur is 1 is 5%, and the probability that the blur is 2 to 7 is 1%. On the other hand, in the case of the 9th interface in which the operation button is pressed latest, the probability that the blurring degree becomes 0 decreases from 89% to 80%. That is, according to the present embodiment, the faster the operation button is pressed, the higher the movement accuracy of the ball can be.
Thereby, the superiority or inferiority of the operation skill of the player can be reflected in the ball-sending operation.

Next, an example of the operation of this embodiment will be briefly described with reference to the flow charts shown in FIGS. As shown in FIG. 10, first, it is determined whether a dash operation has been performed (step S1). This judgment is made based on the operation amount of the operation button 18, for example. When the dash operation is performed, it is determined whether or not the ball is within the dash effective range (step S2). If it is within the effective range, the game character is instructed to be accelerated, and the game character is displayed to perform a dash motion (step S3).

When the dash operation is started, as shown in FIG. 11, it is judged whether or not the ball is caught by this dash operation (step T1). If the ball is not caught, the next inter-wait is waited. (Step T10).
On the other hand, when a ball is caught, it is determined whether or not an operation for instructing a ball is input (step T2), and when it is not input, the next inter-waiting is performed. Then, if a ball-sending operation is performed, it is determined whether or not there is a base to be sent (step T3). When the base to be thrown is specified, the "distance to be sent" between the specified base and the fielder to send the ball is calculated (step T4). Next, for example, the operation information (the depth and time of pressing) of the operation buttons for 10 inters is stored in a given memory (step T5). Then, based on the operation information for these 10 inters, the "depth" when the operation button is pressed deepest among the 10 inters, and this "depth"
“Time” required to reach (step T
6). Next, the "ball throw distance" obtained in step T4,
Based on the "depth" and "time" obtained in step T6, information such as a movement trajectory and movement accuracy is obtained based on table data or the like that is built in the memory in advance (step T7). The operation display is selected based on the throwing distance, the angle difference between the throwing direction and the dash direction, and the table data shown in FIG. 4 (step T
8) Display the corresponding ball-sending operation (step T)
9).

The present invention is not limited to that described in the above embodiment, and various modifications can be made.

For example, in the above embodiment, a ball in baseball was used as an object to be played, and a baseball in a baseball game was used as an operation for releasing the object to be played. However, the present invention is not limited to this. For example, the objects to be played are soccer, rugby, tennis, basketball, balls and balls in table tennis games, and the operations for releasing the objects to be played are pass and kick in soccer and rugby games, strokes and volleys in tennis games. Various things such as smash, pass / shoot in a basketball game, smash in a table tennis game, and the like can be considered.

In the present embodiment, the operation display is changed in consideration of the distance to the moving target in addition to the direction in which the play object is released and the moving direction of the game character, but the distance to the moving target is changed. It is also possible to change the operation display without considering it. Further, when changing the action display, the game character does not necessarily have to be in the dash action state.

Further, in this embodiment, a plurality of motion display patterns are prepared in advance, and the motion display pattern is changed by selecting one of these motion display patterns based on the direction in which the object to be played is released. However, the present invention is not limited to this. For example, it is possible to change the motion display pattern by changing the parameter that determines the motion display based on the direction in which the play target is released, etc. At least the direction in which the play target is released, etc. It suffices that the operation display is changed based on the.

Further, in the above-described embodiment, the time until the operation button is pushed and the ball is sent after the dash operation is not reflected in the operation display, but it is also possible to reflect this. That is, when the ball is thrown at the time when the posture that became unstable due to the dash has recovered, it is optimal (the movement trajectory is the shortest,
It is also possible to make the ball to be delivered with high movement accuracy. In this way, if the processing is performed in consideration of the time from the dash operation to the ball-sending operation, the difference in the operation skill of the player can be more reflected in the ball-catching / ball-sending operation.

In the above-mentioned embodiment, the home game machine has been mainly described as an example. However, the present invention is not limited to the home game machine, but is also a business game machine, a large attraction type in which a large number of players participate. It can also be applied to other game devices. Further, the present invention can be applied to a multimedia terminal having a function of playing a game with another player using a communication line or the like. Furthermore, the present invention can naturally be applied to what is called a three-dimensional game device. In this case,
A game character, a ball, a bat, etc. are represented by an object or the like composed of, for example, a combination of polygons, and the position / direction information of the object in the object space (virtual three-dimensional space) is calculated in real time for each inter. At this time, motion display patterns such as running throw and toss may be held as table data as in the above. Then, a visual field image that can be seen from a given viewpoint position in the object space may be formed and output to the display unit.
