FIG. 5 is a block diagram showing the configuration of the present invention centering on the characteristic parts of the present invention among the network configuration shown in FIG. Here, the game server 340, the guild management server 350, the deposit management server 360, the stock management server 370, the guild information DB (384) performing important functions in the guild game service system according to the present invention, The present invention will be described focusing on the deposit information DB 385 and the stock information DB 386.

A plurality of game users to play the game in the game server 340 through the user terminal 20, the game server 340 is a guild management server 350, a deposit management server 360, a stock management server 370 You will exchange data about the game with.

The guild management server 350 determines whether the guild applying for listing satisfies the first or second listing conditions when the information for applying for the first or second listing of the guild is received from the game server 340. Guiding examination means 351 for determining whether to determine, and in some cases whether to cancel the listing of the guild.

These first or second listing conditions may include the deposit amount of the game money possessed by the guild, the number of members of the guild, the level of the guild's master, the amount of the game money of the guild's master, and the like. Secondary listing conditions may be the same or may be different.

The deposit management server 360 includes a deposit deposit means 361, a win rate calculation means 362, and a deposit information correction means 363.

The deposit deposit means 361, which allows the game money used in the online game from the master of the guild or from each member of the guild, to deposit in the bank on the game as a deposit of the guild, stores the deposited deposit information in the deposit information DB 385. . The deposit will be discussed in detail later.

The odds calculating means 362 receives the game result information in the online game of the guild from the game server 340 for a predetermined period, calculates the percentage of the guild from the game result information as a percentage, and guides the deposit information modifying means 363. Transmits the odds information.

On the other hand, it is preferable that the sum of the price of the stock means issued is limited to the deposit amount of the second listed guild issuing the stock means, so the stock issuance means 373 deposits the second listed guild from the deposit information DB 385. You will receive data about the amount.

The stock means issued from the stock issue means 373 may be bought and sold through the game money on the online game. The stock trading result reflecting means 372 stores the deposit amount information increased by the game money received in exchange for selling the stock means in the deposit information DB 385, and stores information on the quantity of the stock sold and reduced. (386).

In order to be distributed in proportion, the information of the deposit amount reduced due to the distribution is stored in the deposit information DB 385.

Hereinafter, the features of the online game service method according to the preferred embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 1 and 2.

1 is a flowchart illustrating a method of an online guild game service according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention.

When an online game is played by the users in the user terminal 20 (101) and the information for requesting the generation of the guild is transmitted to the game server 340 by the users, the predetermined guild generation condition is satisfied ( Guild is created (103).

Guild generation conditions may include information about the amount of game money used in online games, levels in online games, and the like. Guild generation conditions may be arbitrarily determined by a system designer or an operator.

The generated guild is run by users. In the process, the number of guild members increases, the guild's funds are recruited in the form of game money, and as a result, the guild's size is increased, the information for applying for the first listing of the guild is sent to one of the guild's members or the master of the guild. By the user terminal 20 may be delivered to the game server 340.

When the information about the name of the first guild, the guild that applied for listing and the guild master's level or game money is transferred from the game server 340 to the guild management server 350, the guild screening means 351 has a guild of 1 It is determined whether the first listing condition (first condition) is satisfied (104), and the guild determined to satisfy the first listing condition becomes the first listing guild (105).

 The first condition, which is the primary listing condition, may include the amount of deposit of the game money possessed by the guild, the number of members of the guild, the level of the master of the guild, the amount of game money of the master of the guild, and the like. The first condition may include an application for the first listing of a member of the guild or the master of the guild, and the first listing may be made automatically without the application of a member of the guild or the master.

For example, if the general guild is listed as the first listed guild, the guild master has a level of 30 or more and the number of members in the guild is 20 or more. Suppose you have to deposit (points).

In this case, a guild with "Guild Master Level 35, Guild Membership 18 Members, Guild Master Game 8,000 P (Points)" will not meet the first listing requirement, but "Guild Master Level 32 Guilds with 23 guild members and 5,500 P (Points) of guild master's game have a lower master level than the previous guild and have at least a primary listing.

When the guild is listed first, the deposit deposit means 361 receives the game money from the master of the first listed guild or members of the guild and deposits it as a deposit, and the deposit amount and the name of the deposited first listed guild. Information such as the data is stored in the deposit information DB 385 (106).

The deposit can be deposited in the form of a game money to be paid to a bank on an online game, and the deposit is classified as a game money belonging to the guild rather than the game master. Deposits may be deposited from the guild's master or members of the guild, or automatically deposited upon first listing, which may be determined by the system designer or operator.

First Listing Guilds are run by users of online games after a deposit has been deposited. Operation of the first listed guild is performed in the user terminal 20 and the game server 340 by the battle between the guild or each member of the guild as before the first listing.

The odds calculating unit 362 calculates the "guild record" of the first listed guild for a predetermined period of time and calculates the winning rate of the guild for the predetermined period based on this (107). The guild achievement may be calculated by summing the winning or losing of each member of the guild, may also be calculated by summing the winning or losing between the guilds, or both.

According to the odds calculated by the odds calculation means 362, the reserve information correction means 363 increases or decreases the deposit of the guild paid to the bank on the game (108) and thereafter, the first listed guild in the guild examination means 351. It is determined whether the first listing condition (first condition) is satisfied (109).

If the first listing guild meets the first listing condition, it may continue to operate as the first listing guild, but if it is determined that the first listing is not satisfied, the first listing is canceled (110). Secondary Listing Guilds will be converted to the usual Guilds before the First Listing.

For example, let's say the first listing and cancellation conditions are "Guild Master Level 30 or more, Guild Membership of 20 or more." Under these conditions, after the first guild with "Guild Master Level 32, Guild Membership 23 Members, Guild Master Game Money 5,500 P (Points)" first listed (105), the members of the Guild are in the process of playing the game. If the number of members of the guild becomes less than 20 due to reasons such as leaving the guild or dying in an online game, the first listing will be canceled because the above conditions are not satisfied (110).

However, the listing and cancellation conditions do not necessarily have to be the same. For example, the first listing condition is "Guild master level is 30 or more, Guild number of members is 20 or more". After listing as the first listed guild, 5,000 P (points) will be deposited as a deposit of the guild, and the first Suppose that the cancellation of the listing is "Guild Master level is 30 or more, Guild number is 20 or more members, deposit amount is 5,000 P (points) or more".

Under these conditions, if the Guild with "Guild Master Level 32, Guild Membership 23 Members, Guild Master Game Money 5,500 P (Points)" is listed first and deposits 5,000 P (Points) as a deposit, the Guild Master Your game money will be 500 P (points).

In this case, as a result of calculating the odds for the predetermined period, the deposit is 3,000 P (points), which may be considered as 2,000 P (points). If the game money is deposited from the guild as a deposit and the deposit amount is more than 5,000 P (points), the first listing may be maintained, but if the guild's members do not have enough money to deposit the game money, it will eventually be The guild's deposit amount will not be 5,000 P (points).

In this case, although the first listed guild is "guild master level 40, the number of members of the guild is 30", even if the first listing condition is satisfied, the deposit amount is not maintained above 5,000 P (points), so the first listing cancellation condition By the first listing is canceled (110).

2 is a flowchart illustrating a method of an online guild game service according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention. Hereinafter, a second feature, which is another feature of the online game service method according to the present invention, will be described.

When a predetermined guild generation condition is satisfied when the online game is played by the users in the user terminal 20 (201) and information for requesting generation of the guild is transmitted to the game server 340 (202). Guild is created (203).

The guild generation condition may include the amount of game money used in the online game, the level in the online game, and the like, and the guild generation condition may be arbitrarily determined by the system designer or the operator.

When the guild is created, the deposit deposit means 361 receives the game money from the master of the first listed guild or the members of the guild and deposits the deposit into the deposit. The deposit information and the name of the deposited first listed guild are provided. The deposit information DB 385 is stored (204).

The deposit can be deposited in the form of a game money to be paid to a bank on an online game, and the deposit is classified as a game money belonging to the guild rather than the game master. The deposit may be deposited from the guild's master or members of the guild, or automatically deposited when the guild is created, which may be determined by the system designer or operator.

Such a deposit may be configured to deposit the game before the second listing according to the method of providing the online game service according to the present invention, or may be deposited after the second listing.

The deposited guild will be run by users. In this process, the number of guild members is increased, the guild's funds are recruited in the form of game money, and as a result, the guild's size is increased, and the information for applying for the second listing of the guild is either one of the members of the guild or the master of the guild. By the user terminal 20 may be delivered to the game server 340.

When the information about the second guild requesting the guild management server 350 and the guild that applied for listing, the guild master's level or game money is transmitted from the game server 340 to the guild management server 350, the guild judging means 351 has 2 guilds. It is judged whether the second listing condition (second condition) is satisfied (205), and the guild determined to satisfy the second listing condition becomes the second listing guild (206).

"Secondary Listing" refers to the stage at which a guild may issue a means of stock, ie "guild stock", which is commonly used in online games, and the Secondary Listing Conditions (Secondary Conditions) are the amount of deposits of game money held by the guild. , The number of members of the guild, the level of the master of the guild, the amount of game money of the master of the guild, and the like.

The second condition may include an application for a second listing of a guild's member or a master of the guild, and the second listing may be made automatically without an application of a member of the guild or a master.

Secondary listing is preferably performed after the first listing described with reference to FIG. 1, in which case the second listing condition (second condition) is determined to be higher than the first listing condition (first condition). It is preferable.

However, in providing the online guild game service method according to the present invention, the second listing is not necessarily based on the premise that the first listing is made first, and only the second listing is provided without the first listing. The case also falls within the scope of the present invention.

When the guild is listed for the second time, guild shares are issued by the stock issue means 373 (207). Guild stocks correspond to the stock instruments commonly used in online games in response to stocks in the general stock market. When a guild stock is issued, the stock issuance means 373 stores information such as the number of guild stocks issued to the stock information DB 386, the name of the second listed guild, and the owner of the guild stocks.

The issued guild stock may be sold to game users through a store in an online game (208). When the issued guild stock is sold, the stock trading result reflecting means 372 stores information about the change of the owner of the stock in the stock information DB 386, and stores the information on the game money received in exchange for the deposit information DB. (385).

Secondary listing guilds are operated by users of online games after the stock instrument is issued. Operation of the second listed guild is performed in the user terminal 20 and the game server 340 by the battle between the guild or each member of the guild as before the second listing.

The odds calculating means 362 calculates the "guild record" of the second listed guild for a predetermined period and calculates the odds of the guild for the predetermined period based on this (209). The guild achievement may be calculated by summing the winning or losing of each member of the guild, may also be calculated by summing the winning or losing between the guilds, or both.

According to the odds calculated by the odds calculating means 362, the reserve information correction means 363 is to increase or decrease the deposit of the guild paid to the bank on the game (210).

The stock profit divider 371 determines whether the deposit has been increased by deposit information correction means 363 (211), and if there is a profit, the second listed guild issues a game money corresponding to the profit amount. The holder of a stock instrument is allocated in proportion to the number of shares held (212).

However, there is no profit dividend by the stock profit dividend means 371 when the deposit is reduced due to the reserve information correction means 363. In this case, the guild judging means 351 determines whether the deposit is maintained above a predetermined amount by a method such as depositing additional game money by the second listed guild (213).

As a result, if the deposit amount of the second listed guild is lower than the predetermined amount, the second listing is canceled (214). In this case, the second listing guild is changed to the general guild before the second listing.

In the online game according to the present invention, the second listing condition of the guild and the cancellation condition of the second listing guild are not necessarily the same. For example, as described above, if a deposit is to be deposited after the second listing, the "reservation amount must be maintained above a certain level" may not be included in the second listing, but May be included.

The stock trading result reflecting means increases the deposit by depositing the game money received in exchange for selling the stock means issued by the second listed guild to the bank on the game after the dividend of profits based on the stock is completed (215).

The increased deposit may be used for additional issuance of shares by stock issuance means 373, or may be used (216) to further distribute profits to holders of stock means by stock gain dividend means 371.

6 is a view illustrating a method according to the present invention with a specific example, a case where the profit generated in the second listing guild as an example.

First, the assumption applied in FIG. 6 will be described. The initial deposit for the Secondary Listing Guild is 10,000 P (points), which is the basis for the Secondary Listing Conditions (second condition). In other words, the minimum game money required to maintain a second listing in an online game is 10,000 P (points).

The standard winning rate set in the online game is 50%, and the standard winning rate is a standard for changing the deposit amount according to the winning rate. The odds calculation is based on the results of the game during the quarterly period of six months, which is the period set by the game, and the guild has secured 3000 P (points) in exchange for selling the stock instrument. The rest of the stock sold after the sale is owned by the guild.

Under this assumption, if a six month period has elapsed in the game server 340, the odds calculation unit 362 will settle the total of the second listed guild for six months (602), as shown in the game results of the guild. May be displayed as "Guild Battle 100 games 60 wins 40 losses" and the like (603).

In this case, the guild's odds are calculated at 60%, which is 10% higher than the baseline 50% (604). Eventually, the deposit information correction means 363 increases the deposit in proportion to 10% exceeding the standard winning rate, and the amount is 10,000 P (point) * 10% = 1,000 P (point) (605).

At this time, the generated 1,000 P (point) is a profit, and the stock profit divider 371 distributes the profit to the holder of the stock means issued by the guild in proportion to the amount of the stock means held (606). After settlement and distribution, the deposit will be 10,000 P (points) again (607), and the next six months of quarterly distribution will begin again.

At the beginning of the quarter, the stock trading result reflecting unit 372 changes the total deposit amount to 10,000 P (points) plus 13,000 P (points) plus the stock selling price 3,000 P (points), and the deposit information DB (385). Store in step 609. In this case, the increased 3,000 P (point) may be used as a profit margin according to the selection of the guild or may be used to additionally issue a new stock means (610).

7 is a view illustrating a method according to the present invention with a specific example, a case where a loss occurs in the second listing guild as an example. Hereinafter, an example of occurrence of loss of the second listed guild under the same assumption as that of FIG. 6 will be described.

If the guild operated by the online game user satisfies the predetermined second listing condition, the second listing is performed (702). After a six month period in the game server 340, the odds calculation unit 362 will settle the total of the second listed guild for six months (703), and the game results of the guild as illustrated are "guilds". 100 wins, 10 wins, 90 losses ", and the like (704).

In this case, the odds of the guild are calculated as 10%, which is 40% lower than the standard 50% (705). Eventually, the reserve information correction means 363 reduces the deposit in proportion to 40% below the standard winning rate, and the amount is 10,000 P (point) * 40% = 4,000 P (point) (706). The 4,000 P (points) subtracted is the loss, in which case the share dividend means 371 does not distribute profits to the holders of the share means (707).

After settlement, the deposit is 6,000 P (points) minus 4000 P (points) (708). After the settlement, the game server 340 starts a branch of the next six months (709). At the beginning of the quarter, the stock trading result reflecting means 372 changes the total amount of the deposit from 6,000 P (point 0 to 9,000 P (point) plus the stock selling price 3,000 P (point)) (710).

After all, this is 1,000 P (points) less than 10,000 P (points), which is the minimum deposit of the 2nd listing condition (711), so that 1,000 P (points) of the game money lacked from the 2nd listing guild are deposited through the deposit deposit means 361. In case of further deposit, the second listing is maintained, but if not, the second listing is canceled (712).

The technical scope of the present invention described above through the embodiments is not limited to the above-described embodiments, and various modifications and changes may be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. It is evident to those who have knowledge. Therefore, such modifications or variations will have to be belong to the scope of the invention described in the claims of the present invention.

The method of the present invention can also be embodied in computer readable code on a computer readable recording medium. The computer-readable recording medium includes all kinds of recording devices in which data that can be read by a computer system is stored. Examples of computer-readable recording media include ROM, RAM, CD-ROM, magnetic tape, floppy disk, optical data storage, and the like, which are also implemented in the form of a carrier wave (for example, transmission over the Internet). It also includes. The computer readable recording medium can also be distributed over network coupled computer systems so that the computer readable code is stored and executed in a distributed fashion.

As described above, according to the present invention, the economic part of the guild system, which was merely a community group provided in the existing online game, can be strengthened, thereby activating the guild system and improving the guild operating system. . In addition, real game users can feel the flow of the real economy in the process of running a guild, and can feel as if they are managing a company by issuing stock instruments. In the end, the reality of the online game is doubled according to the present invention.
