Abstract

Provided is a game system including at least one processor configured to: receive a selection of at least one of a plurality of second objects each associated with one of a plurality of conditions for choosing a first object and one of a plurality of parameters that is used for choosing the first object satisfying the one of the plurality of conditions; notify a user by displaying information on a possibility that the first object satisfying the plurality of conditions respectively associated with the plurality of second objects is chosen, by using the plurality of parameters respectively associated with the plurality of second objects, when a selection of the plurality of second objects is received; and choose the first object satisfying the plurality of conditions by using the plurality of parameters.

Claims (56)

1. A game system comprising:

at least one processor, the at least one processor configured to:

receive a selection of second objects, each second object associated with at least a first condition from among a plurality of conditions for choosing a first object and at least a first parameter from among a plurality of parameters that is used for acquiring a possibility of choosing the first object satisfying the first condition,

wherein the selection of second objects is associated with a second object list image which is transmitted to a user;

wherein the processor is further configured to disable an input of user selection on the second object list image based on a condition;

wherein the user selects the second objects;

wherein the second object list image is adjusted based on the user's selection;

acquire the possibility of choosing the first object satisfying the plurality of conditions respectively associated with the second objects, by using the plurality of parameters respectively associated with the second objects, when the selection of the second objects is received;

notify the user by displaying the possibility; and

choose the first object satisfying the plurality of conditions by using the possibility;

wherein the at least one processor is configured to notify the user by displaying information on the possibility that the first object satisfying all of the plurality of conditions is chosen;

choose the first object satisfying at least one of the plurality of conditions when the first object satisfying all of the plurality of conditions is not chosen; and

further notify the user by displaying information on a possibility that the first object satisfying the at least one of the plurality of conditions is chosen;

wherein the first objects are stored in a data storage unit including information for an initial overall value, a rarity, a league affiliation, a position, and initial ability values; and

wherein the second objects are stored in a data storage unit including information for specialist field and a category.

2. The game system according to claim 1 , wherein the at least one processor is configured to notify the user by displaying information enabling identification of one of the second objects that are associated with one of the plurality of conditions satisfied by the chosen first object.

3. The game system according to claim 1 ,

wherein the plurality of conditions each relate to at least one of a plurality of categories, and

wherein the at least one processor is configured to restrict execution of processing for choosing the first object based on the plurality of conditions relating to the same one of the plurality of categories.

4. The game system according to claim 1 ,

wherein the first object includes at least one of a plurality of attribute types, and

wherein the plurality of conditions include a condition that a specific attribute among the plurality of attribute types is included.

5. The game system according to claim 1 ,

wherein the possibility includes a probability that the first object satisfying the plurality of conditions is chosen.

6. The game system according to claim 1 , wherein the second objects are scouts.

7. The game system according to claim 1 , wherein the at least one processor is configured to indirectly notify the user of the possibility.

8. The game system according to claim 1 , wherein the at least one processor is configured to directly notify the user of the possibility by displaying a number representing the possibility.

9. A game control device comprising:

at least one processor, the at least one processor configured to:

receive a selection of second objects, each second object associated with at least a first condition from among a plurality of conditions for choosing a first object and at least a first parameter from among a plurality of parameters that is used for acquiring a possibility of choosing the first object satisfying the first condition;

wherein the selection of second objects is associated with a second object list image which is transmitted to a user;

wherein the processor is further configured to disable an input of user selection on the second object list image based on a condition;

wherein the user selects the second objects;

wherein the second object list image is adjusted based on the user's selection;

acquire the possibility of choosing the first object satisfying the plurality of conditions respectively associated with the second objects, by using the plurality of parameters respectively associated with the second objects, when the selection of the second objects is received;

notify the user by displaying the possibility; and

choose the first object satisfying the plurality of conditions by using the possibility;

wherein the at least one processor is configured to notify the user by displaying information on the possibility that the first object satisfying all of the plurality of conditions is chosen;

choose the first object satisfying at least one of the plurality of conditions when the first object satisfying all of the plurality of conditions is not chosen; and

further notify the user by displaying information on a possibility that the first object satisfying the at least one of the plurality of conditions is chosen;

wherein the first objects are stored in a data storage unit including information for an initial overall value, a rarity, a league affiliation, a position, and initial ability values; and

wherein the second objects are stored in a data storage unit including information for specialist field and a category.

10. A non-transitory computer-readable information storage medium having recorded thereon a program for causing a computer to:

receive a selection of second objects, each second object associated with at least a first condition from among a plurality of conditions for choosing a first object and at least a first parameter from among a plurality of parameters that is used for acquiring a possibility of choosing the first object satisfying the first condition;

wherein the selection of second objects is associated with a second object list image which is transmitted to a user;

wherein the computer is configured to disable an input of user selection on the second object list image based on a condition;

wherein the user selects the second objects;

wherein the second object list image is adjusted based on the user's selection;

acquire the possibility of choosing the first object satisfying the plurality of conditions respectively associated with the second objects, by using the plurality of parameters respectively associated with the second objects, when the selection of the second objects is received;

notify the user by displaying the possibility; and

choose the first object satisfying the plurality of conditions by using the possibility;

wherein the at least one processor is configured to notify the user by displaying information on the possibility that the first object satisfying all of the plurality of conditions is chosen;

choose the first object satisfying at least one of the plurality of conditions when the first object satisfying all of the plurality of conditions is not chosen; and

further notify the user by displaying information on a possibility that the first object satisfying the at least one of the plurality of conditions is chosen;

wherein the first objects are stored in a data storage unit including information for an initial overall value, a rarity, a league affiliation, a position, and initial ability values; and

wherein the second objects are stored in a data storage unit including information for specialist field and a category.
