Methods and systems for facilitating intra-game communications in a video game environment

1. A method of generating on-screen graphics in video game environments, the method comprising:

determining, using control circuitry, a first set of coordinates of a three-dimensional space of a video game environment of an object;

determining, using control circuitry, a second set of coordinates of the three-dimensional space of the video game environment of a first avatar, wherein the first avatar corresponds to a first user;

detecting, using the control circuitry, an interaction of the first user within the video game environment, wherein the interaction corresponds to a portion of the second set of coordinates of the three-dimensional space overlapping with a portion of the first set of coordinates of the three-dimensional space;

monitoring, using the control circuitry, a path and a velocity associated with the interaction of the first user;

determining, using the control circuitry, a trajectory of an on-screen graphic based on the path and the velocity associated with the interaction of the first user;

determining, using the control circuitry, a presentation format of the on-screen graphic based on the interaction of the first user; and

generating, using the control circuitry, the on-screen graphic in the presentation format, wherein the on-screen graphic comprises a pointer along the trajectory.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein determining the presentation format further comprises comparing, using the control circuitry, the interaction of the first user with entries in a database listing presentation formats associated with different types of user interaction.

3. The method of claim 2 , wherein a first type of user interaction relates to audio communications.

4. The method of claim 3 , wherein a second type of user interaction relates to actions in the video game environment.

5. The method of claim 1 , further comprising determining, using the control circuitry, the size of the on-screen graphic based on the interaction of the first user.

6. The method of claim 1 , further comprising determining, using the control circuitry, the shape of the on-screen graphic based on the interaction of the first user.

7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the presentation format is a presentation format that has been customized by the first user.

8. The method of claim 1 , further comprising determining, using the control circuitry, a trajectory of the interaction of the first user based on the path and/or the velocity associated with the interaction of the first user, wherein the trajectory of the on-screen graphic is based, at least in part, on the trajectory of the interaction of the first user.

9. The method of claim 8 , wherein the trajectory of the interaction of the first user comprises one or more components.

10. The method of claim 9 , wherein the one or more components correspond to a direction, a distance, and/or a speed associated with the interaction of the first user.

11. The method of claim 10 , wherein the pointer indicates one or more components of the trajectory of the interaction of the first user.

12. A system of generating on-screen graphics in video game environments, the system comprising:

storage circuitry configured to store graphical elements for rendering a video game environment; and

control circuitry configured to:

determine a first set of coordinates of a three-dimensional space of a video game environment of an object;

determine a second set of coordinates of the three-dimensional space of the video game environment of a first avatar, wherein the first avatar corresponds to a first user;

detect an interaction of the first user within the video game environment, wherein the interaction corresponds to a portion of the second set of coordinates of the three-dimensional space overlapping with a portion of the first set of coordinates of the three-dimensional space;

monitor a path and a velocity associated with the interaction of the first user;

determine a trajectory of an on-screen graphic based on the path and/or the velocity associated with the interaction of the first user;

determine a presentation format of the on-screen graphic based on the interaction of the first user; and

generate the on-screen graphic in the presentation format, wherein the on-screen graphic comprises a pointer along the trajectory.

13. The system of claim 12 , wherein the control circuitry is further caused, when determining the presentation format, to compare the interaction of the first user with entries in a database listing presentation formats associated with different types of user interaction.

14. The system of claim 13 , wherein a first type of user interaction relates to audio communications.

15. The system of claim 14 , wherein a second type of user interaction relates to actions in the video game environment.

16. The system of claim 12 , wherein the control circuitry is further configured to determine the size of the on-screen graphic based on the interaction of the first user.

17. The system of claim 12 , wherein the control circuitry is further configured to determine the shape of the on-screen graphic based on the interaction of the first user.

18. The system of claim 12 , wherein the presentation format is a presentation format that has been customized by the first user.
