  • a clan In computer and video gaming, a clan is typically a group of players who play multiplayer games together. Such games may range from groups of a few players to hundreds or thousands of players comprising a variety of organizational structures. Joining a clan provides a player access to resources, knowledge, and assistance in accomplishing many game related goals. In addition, playing together with like-minded players provides social interaction and thus enhances the video gaming experience.
  • a video game matchmaking service provides a player with a candidate opponent or co-player when the player desires to play a multiplayer game and further desires to be matched with another player over a network.
  • the matchmaking service typically uses a player's skill level as measured by various factors such as the player's achievement level.
  • individual players may have varying degrees of skill and experience. Some clans may focus on competition and may only allow skilled players who they think can help their clan win matches. For such clans, a prospective clan member may be asked to prove their skill in a game. Some teams may only recruit players who have a proven history with other successful teams.
  • some multiplayer games have different roles. For example, many games have supporting roles as well as more direct action roles. It is thus desirable that clans can access a matchmaking service that can provide opponent clans that shares generally similar skill levels and preferences and provide a good gaming experience.
  • a matchmaking service calculates the weighted skill level of all participating members of a clan, along with the preferences of that clan, to find a well- matched clan.
  • the matchmaking service may collect the skill statistics data of various clans and all their members over a number of game sessions.
  • the service may calculate the weighted skill level of a clan based on the clan's statistics data and the statistics data of current participating members to determine a weighted skill level. The service may then use this weighted skill level, along with preferences, to match this clan with another clan that has similar skill level and preferences.

In addition, playing together with like-minded players provides social interaction and thus enhances the gaming experience.
  • Some clans may be multi-game clans, allowing gamers to play with the same people in different games. Some clans may organize in order to play for a limited time. Such clans typically start more spontaneously, have smaller numbers of members, focus on a single game and have a short life span. Other clans may be larger and have a longer life span, and are typically directed to a single game. Some clans may be more specialized, and may require more selective criteria for membership in the clan. Such criteria may take into account not only the player's playing skill but their time commitment and, in some cases, computer hardware and bandwidth.

  • Players may wish to evaluate their skills relative to people they know or relative to potential opponents they have never played, generally so that they can arrange interesting matches.

  • the individual player information may be combined using various methods such as averaging, weighted scoring, distribution profiles, and the like.
  • weighting factors may be determined based on the distribution of the players past scores or skill levels, or various other methods. For example, a player with an extensive game history may be more heavily weighted than a player whose history comprises a single high score. The single high score may not be indicative of the player's skill because of the small sample size, and thus a lower weight may reduce the potential skewing effect of the non-representative score.
  • An online gaming service may, for example, maintain a database of player scores and other performance factors such as achievement level. Such a database may be continuously updated by the online gaming service as players use the service. Such information may be further analyzed to create and maintain a user profile that may incorporate player performance and other information. Furthermore, the user profile may be automatically updated and saved for each player after each gaming session or other time period. In other embodiments, a player may provide such information if the gaming service does not have access to the information, or the player's localized game application may provide the information to the gaming service if the player's history is saved on the local system.

Abstract

L'invention concerne divers systèmes, procédés et instructions lisibles par ordinateur pour un service de mise en relation de clans de jeu vidéo. Dans un mode de réalisation, un service de mise en relation calcule le niveau pondéré de dextérité de tous les membres participants d’un clan, ainsi que les préférences du clan en question, pour trouver un clan bien assorti. Le service de mise en relation peut recueillir les données statistiques de dextérité de divers clans et de tous leurs membres sur un certain nombre de sessions de jeu. Dans un mode de réalisation, le service peut calculer le niveau pondéré de dextérité d’un clan sur la base des données statistiques du clan et des données statistiques de membres participants actuels afin de déterminer un niveau pondéré de dextérité. Le service peut alors utiliser ce niveau pondéré de dextérité, ainsi que des préférences, pour mettre en relation le clan en question avec un autre clan présentant un niveau de dextérité et des préférences similaires.
