Methods, systems, and computer programs for creating a crew to participate in a mission challenge in an online game are provided. The method identifies quests to complete the mission challenge. Each quest includes a plurality of tasks and each task includes a plurality of subtasks. A request feed is sent to members of a social graph requesting the members to join the crew and to participate in the completion of the subtasks of the mission challenge. The members in the social graph have a social relation with a user initiating the online game wherein the user is a mission leader managing the mission challenge. A distinct subtask is assigned to each member of the crew that responds to the request feed. Each crew member's progression in completing the mission challenge is monitored and status of the mission challenge is updated based on the progression made by each crew member of the crew.

Automated Apparent Responses In Massively Multiplayer Online Games

US Patent:
8622841, Jan 7, 2014
Filed:
Aug 2, 2011
Appl. No.:
13/196852
Inventors:
John Osvald - Albany CA, US
Michael Waite - Alamo CA, US
Kyle Sauger - Burlingame CA, US
Lauren Duncan - San Francisco CA, US
Erik Nilsson - South San Francisco CA, US
Assignee:
Zynga Inc. - San Francisco CA
International Classification:
A63F 13/10
A63F 13/12
US Classification:
463 42
Abstract:
Software at a massively multiplayer online (MMO) game website receives a request for assistance with a game task from a first player of a MMO game. The software transmits the request to a second player of the MMO game who is associated with the first player through a relationship recognized by the MMO game. The software determines whether the second player responds to the request within a time period. The time period depends on one or more factors related to game mechanics and to user data for the first player. Then if the second player does not respond within the time period and the game task is a game task whose completion can be assigned without the assistance of another player, the software assigns completion of the game task to the first player and transmits an automated apparent response to the first player.

US Classification:
463 30
Abstract:
A method for performing a social project in a video game is provided.

Upon activation of the low-friction response mechanism of the request, a response is received indicating an intent to help complete the social project from a responsive secondary user. Upon receiving the response, automated retrieval and animation of an avatar of the responsive secondary user is triggered within the primary user's session of the video game so as to collaborate on the social project.

Inventors:
John Osvald - Albany CA, US
Michael Waite - Alamo CA, US
Kyle Sauger - Burlingame CA, US
Lauren Duncan - San Francisco CA, US
Erik Nilsson - South San Francisco CA, US
Assignee:
Zynga Inc. - San Francisco CA
International Classification:
G06Q 99/00
US Classification:
705319, 705 11
Abstract:
Methods, systems, and computer programs for generating revenue in an online game are presented. One method includes an operation for creating, in the online game, a first virtual currency and a game score, where the amount of the first virtual currency can be increased in exchange for real currency. The first virtual currency can be traded for advancement in the online game. Further, a game module, that is an autonomous game within the online game, is started, and a second virtual currency and a module score are created in the game module. The amount of the second virtual currency can be increased in exchange for real currency, where the second virtual currency can be traded for advancement in the game module and cannot be traded for advancement in the online game outside of the game module. Advancement in the game module increases the module score and does not increase the game score. In addition, at least one form of advancement in the game module can be obtained with the second virtual currency and cannot be obtained with the first virtual currency.
