Breaks in presence (BIP) are those moments during virtual environment (VE) exposure in which participants become aware of their real world setting and their sense of presence in the VE becomes disrupted. In this study, we investigate participants' experience when they encounter technical anomalies during game play. We induced four technical anomalies and compared the BIP responses of a navigation mode game to that of a combat mode game. In our analysis, we applied a linear mixed model (LMM) and compared the results with those of a conventional regression model. Results indicate that participants felt varied levels of impact and recovery when experiencing the various technical anomalies. The impact of BIPs was clearly affected by the game mode, whereas recovery appears to be independent of game mode. The results obtained using the LMM did not differ significantly from those obtained using the general regression model; however, it was shown that treatment effects could be improved by consideration of random effects in the regression model.

Currently the mobile augmented reality does not require supplemental hardware, such as markers like specific images or depth cameras, in order to acquire 3D environment information. This allows for increased accessibility and usability for the general user, and also broadened scope of development. The market research enterprise Counterpoint Research predicted that the growth of the augmented reality market will reach 70 trillion Korean Won by 2021. Application developments are also progressing. Wargaming, the developer of the global game World of Tanks, has launched an application that uses AR core at the GDC 2018. Thus, we must prepare for the impending augmented reality market and acquire top class augmented reality technology using 3D environment. This paper outlines the development of a game using AR CORE SDK to acquire 3D environment and Unity 3D game engine to combine camera images and 3D graphics, which all comes together to construct a natural augmented reality.

Among recent technologies that are applied to game development, virtual reality part is getting much attention for its technological effectiveness in transmitting game processing circumstances in variety that are happening in game world very realistically. In this study we analyze interface for game that is based on a action realization technology and force-feedback technology among technologies for developing virtual reality, in other words, technical analogy on game controller and the positive and negative sides of game controller for each platform. Based on that, more ordinary and effective way to deliver the functions to users in PC game field where application of force-feedback technology is least satisfied. And, Force-Feedback seat has been developed to satisfy the users' needs by using vibration.

Unlike Online Games, Video Games do not require Internet connection. Video Game players have their own game device to play games offline. Yet there are popular online communities based on Video Games that has lots of active, loyal members. The presence of Video Game online community indicates that online community plays an important role in "Game Play" of Video Games. In this research, in order to analyze the impact of online community, Game Play Heuristics were studied. Also, the use and the purpose of Video Game online communities was investigated. Finally, examples of the impact of online community on "Game Play"of Video Games is presented.

The purpose of this study is to come up with ways that cooperate between on-line game design and fashion design by analyzing trend color and on-line game character's costume color in on-line game. As for the research methodology, First, on-line games were selected with reference to www.ranky.com. Second, 2009 SS trend color palettes suggested by Copenhagen International Fashion Fair was used as a criterion of fashion trend. Third, on-line game character's costume colors were analyzed in relation to the degree of reflection of trend and the game character's type. The results are as follows. Each on-line game character costume's colors were made in accordance with typical character types. But we can find a one-to-one correspondence between fashion trend colors and game character costume's colors. That's because both trends and character types are the results of the continuing interactions between human-beings and societies. In comparison with fashion trend colors, game character costume colors are partly raw and inharmonious. Therefore, it is necessary to apply fashion trend color in game character costume design for enhancing competitiveness in the world market.

The paradigm of the human experience through computer as a medium is moving from cultural interface to cultural software. Mod represents this paradigm shift in digital game culture. Until now, Digital game play focused on the immersive agency in the process of achieving the goals of the game. On the other hand, In Mod, play focus on generative agency in the process of creating and solving problems in game world. Through Mod, original game perceived as transformable data and creative material. Transformation and generation of such a game content through the user's Mod presents a sustainable model of the digital game.

본 논문은 영속적 RPG게임에서 사용자에게 제공되는 퀘스트 유형의 절차적 생성 기법에 대한 연구이다. 영속적 월드(persistent world) 환경은, 게임 사용자를 포함한 다양한 게임 구성 자원간의 상호작용을 통해 서사를 생성하는 가상 월드의 특징을 가지고 있다. 본 실험은 서사의 핵심 자원인 NPC(Non-Player Character) 및 다양한 월드 자원들을 가진 가상의 영속적 월드 하에, NPC들이 창발적인 퀘스트를 지속적으로 생성하도록 하였다. 이를 통해 영속적 가상 월드의 NPC 자원들이 곳곳에서 창발적 퀘스트 유형을 지속적으로 생성하는 것을 확인 할 수 있었다.

According to the development of artificial intelligence technology, attempts have been made to interpret phenomena in various fields of the real world such as economic, social, and scientific fields through computer simulations using virtual artificial agents. In the existing artificial agent-based bargaining game analysis, there was a problem that did not reflect the cost incurred when the stage progresses in the real-world bargaining game and the depreciation of the bargaining target over time. This study intends to observe the effect on the bargaining game by adding the cost incurred in the bargaining stage and depreciation of the bargaining target over time (bargaining cost) to the previous artificial agent-based bargaining game model. As a result of the experiment, it was observed that as the cost incurred in the bargaining stage increased, the two artificial agents participating in the game had a share close to half the ratio and tried to conclude the negotiation in the early stage.

At MMORPGs that has the numerous game users with many interactions at the same virtual world, massive loading that results in delays, resource shortages, and other such problems occur. To solve this, many developers devote research to load-balancing servers, yet due to steady and dynamic map divisions, such research is unreliable. This paper proposes a game user-oriented load balancing scheme for the load balancing of MMORPG servers. This scheme shows effectiveness at dealing with hot-spots and other gatherings of game users at specific servers compared to previous methods.

Users connect to game server for considerably many hours and perform their roles in MMORPG(Massively Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game), users' immersion degree is very higher than other games, have known affluent contents make users play various roles in game world. However, although contents of games are improved quite much, MMORPG remains still boring game. It is because that the NPC (Non Player Character)' behavior patterns that are the most important elements to make games fun are so simple. So, in this paper we proposed a method to create NPC that react in player's inclination by implanting personality and emotion to NPC.
