Dynamic online game implementation on a client device
A system and method for providing online games on client devices based on capabilities of the client devices are disclosed. Device capability information may be obtained from the client devices during the online game. Values of one or more capability parameters may be determined based on the device capability information obtained. Device profiles may be assigned to the client devices based on the determined values of the capability parameters. One or more game features may be adjusted in accordance with the assigned device profile for implementing the online game on the client devices. The adjustable game features may include frame rate, level of detail of rendering, level of 3D graphics, level of collision effects, animation type, gameplay available for user interaction, gameplay content for user interaction, communication mode, physics effects available for display, level of artificial intelligence, and/or any other features of the online game.
1. A system for providing an online game on client devices based on capabilities of the client devices, the system comprising one or more physical processors configured by machine-readable instructions to:
obtain first capability information regarding a first set of capabilities of a first client device, wherein the first set of capabilities includes one or more of processing power, graphics processing speed, display capability, transmission speed and/or remaining battery power of the first client device;
determine a first value of a first capability parameter based on the first capability information;
automatically select, by the one or more physical processors, one or more of a frame rate for rendering the online game, a level of detail for rendering the online game, an audio quality for providing the online game, a level of graphic effects for implementation of the online game, and/or a level of physics effects for implementation of the online game, wherein the selection is based on the first value of the first capability parameter; and
provide the online game on the first client device in accordance with the selection, wherein providing the online game includes one or more of rendering the online game at the selected frame rate, rendering the online game at the selected level of detail, providing the online game with the selected audio quality, implementing the online game with the selected level of graphics effects, and/or implementing the online game with the selected level of physics effects.
2. The system of claim 1 , wherein the one or more physical processors are further configured to:
determine whether the first value of the first capability parameter has breached the first threshold value for the first capability parameter; and
transmit the first value of the first capability parameter to the first client device.
3. The system of claim 1 , wherein the one or more physical processors are configured such that a second value of a second capability parameter is determined to have breached a second threshold value for the second capability parameter, and wherein the selection is further based on the determination that the value of the second capability parameter has breached the second threshold value for the second capability parameter.
4. The system of claim 3 , wherein the selection is further based on a weighted sum of the first threshold value and the second threshold value.
5. The system of claim 3 , wherein the selection is further based on the difference between the value of the first capability parameter and the first threshold value, and the difference between the second value of the second capability parameter and the second threshold value.
6. The system of claim 1 , wherein the first capability information regarding the first set of device capabilities of the first client device is obtained intermittently, and wherein the first value of the first capability parameter is determined intermittently in response to the first set of capabilities of the first device being obtained intermittently.
7. The system of claim 6 , wherein the first capability information regarding the first client device is obtained after a first event completed in the online game by a first user associated with the first client device, and is obtained after a second event completed in the online game by the first user associated with the first client device.
8. The system of claim 1 , wherein the one or more physical processors are configured by machine-readable instructions to:
assign a first device profile to the first client device based on the first value of the first capability parameter, wherein the selection is further based on the first device profile.
9. The system of claim 1 , wherein providing the online game on the first client device further includes presenting the online game of the first client device for user interaction by a first user with other users in the online game.
10. A method for providing an online game on client devices based on capabilities of the client devices, the method being implemented in one or more physical processors configured to execute machine-readable instructions, the method comprising:
obtaining first capability information regarding a first set of capabilities of a first client device, wherein the first set of capabilities includes one or more of processing power, graphics processing speed, display capability, transmission speed and/or remaining battery power of the first client device;
determining a first value of a first capability parameter based on the first capability information;
automatically selecting one or more of a frame rate for rendering the online game, a level of detail for rendering the online game, an audio quality for providing the online game, a level of graphic effects for implementation of the online game, and/or a level of physics effects for implementation of the online game, wherein selection is based on the first value of the first capability parameter; and
providing the online game on the first client device in accordance with the selection, wherein providing the online game includes one or more of rendering the online game at the selected frame rate, rendering the online game at the selected level of detail, providing the online game with the selected audio quality, implementing the online game with the selected level of graphics effects, and/or implementing the online game with the selected level of physics effects.
11. The method of claim 10 , further comprising:
determining whether the first value of the first capability parameter has breached the first threshold value for the first capability parameter; and
transmitting the first value of the first capability parameter to the first client device.
12. The method of claim 10 , further comprising:
determining a second value of a second capability parameter has breached a second threshold value for the second capability parameter, and wherein the selection is further based on the determination that the value of the second capability parameter has breached the second threshold value for the second capability parameter.
13. The method of claim 12 , wherein the selection is further based on a weighted sum of the first threshold value and the second threshold value.
14. The method of claim 12 , wherein the selection is further based on the difference between the value of the first capability parameter and the first threshold value, and the difference between the second value of the second capability parameter and the second threshold value.
15. The method of claim 10 , wherein the first capability information regarding the first set of device capabilities of the first client device is obtained intermittently, and wherein the first value of the first capability parameter is determined intermittently in response to the first set of capabilities of the first device being obtained intermittently.
16. The method of claim 15 , wherein the first capability information regarding the first client device is obtained after a first event completed in the online game by a first user associated with the first client device, and is obtained after a second event completed in the online game by the first user associated with the first client device.
17. The method of claim 10 , further comprising:
assigning a first device profile to the first client device based on the first value of the first capability parameter, wherein the selecting is further based on the first device profile.
18. The method of claim 10 , wherein providing the online game on the first client device further includes presenting the online game of the first client device for user interaction by a first user with other users in the online game.
