Darkwind–War on Wheels: Computer Controlled Cars Learn From Player Behavior
08-14-2010
Darkwind, the multiplayer on-line turn based strategy war game has continued to push the boundaries of possibilities in on-line gaming with the integration of computer generated players who have improved their skills through cross breeding, natural selection, and learning from human behavior. The game is one of an extreme minority to implement Genetic Algorithms (GAs) to breed new superior computer generated players who additionally can learn from the strategies of their human adversaries.
Artificial Intelligence (AI) techniques can make the behavior of the computer agent more interesting, varied and believable as it has learned behaviors rather than rules being pre-programmed to determine behavior. Genetic algorithms use techniques inspired by Charles Darwin’s theory of evolution and survival of the fittest via natural selection: a population of individuals undergo selection in a system where variation inducing operators such as crossover of genes and ongoing mutations are present. The evolution starts from a population of individuals and happens in generations.
In each generation the fitness of every individual in the population is evaluated and based on this multiple individuals are randomly selected and modified (recombined and possibly mutated) to form a new population. The new population is then used in the next iteration of the algorithm. A fitness function is used to evaluate individuals, and reproductive success varies with fitness. The results are the average fitness being increased with each generation.
GA evolved computer agents/drivers are being introduced in Darkwind for specific track/car combinations in the racing environment. Effective racing lines for these combinations are being evolved through the use of waypoints. Computer drivers use these waypoints during the game to influence their behavior as they navigate static and moving obstacles on the racetrack. This provides an evolved understanding of the overall shape of the track. The GAs have yielded an improvement of up to 30% in computer driver behavior, but more importantly the use of GAs can make the behavior of the driver more human like.
Darkwind players are varied, and while some prefer Player-V-Player conflicts, others prefer to team up against computer adversaries. The introduction of GA evolved computer agents benefits all players and increases the challenge for the most effective players.
AI is also being deployed in the wilderness area of the game for efficient path finding, obstacle avoidance and terrain navigation. The routes taken by human players over thousands of journeys per week as they navigate the wilderness are used as a form of route planning consensus by the computer agents in a similar manner to that of how ants use pheromones to mark their trail and guide following ants. If the trail is successful and more cars use it, the guidance becomes more intense and denser, whereas other trails fade out. This is much more effective than doing a cost-surface analysis where the computer agent makes a computational evaluation of the landscape around them as they traverse it, and therefore once again leads to more human like decisions and challenging opponents.

Shadowbane Possibly Closing After Going Free
03-30-2006
The downside of a MMORPG going free-to-play revealed its ugly head this week when it was announced that the development house for Shadowbane, Wolfpack Studios, was being closed down. May 15th will be its last day. This move puts the future of Shadowbane in jeopardy. Apparently, the decision to go free-to-play was a way to wind the game down instead of trying to save it with a new strategy, because Shadowbane has not been free long.
New Free MMORPG
03-25-2006

A few MUDs like Multi Users in Middle Earth, Wheel of Time MUD, and Shadows of Isildur allow players to experience worlds that were created in some of the best fantasy novels ever.

Sony Going to Offer a Free MMORPG
11-02-2005
In somewhat surprising news, one of the leading MMORPG operators has decided to offer a free MMORPG. Sony Online Entertainment (SOE) is set to launch a yet unnamed free MMORPG in the fall of 2006. Instead of offering a subscription like SOE normally does, it try to profit on extra items and game items instead. As GameOgre mentions in Free MMORPGs Versus Pay-to-Play MMORPGs this strategy may be getting popular in Korea but it has yet to be proven over the long term. Apparently, this announcement and the previous one months ago that SOE would sell in-game items for real cash on the Station Exchange comes as a direct response to the red hot MMORPG currency and item market currently led by IGE.

World of Warcraft Expansion News?
10-22-2005
Although definitely not official, info about the first World of Warcraft expansion is starting to leak out. Supposedly the expansion will be called Burning Crusade and offer 2 new races (Blood Elves for the Horde and Draenei for the Alliance), one new profession (jewel crafting), and no new classes. Also, the level cap is supposed to be raised to either 70 or 75. Take note that this “news” could be just a rumor.

New MMOFPS In Development
06-01-2005
Displayed at E3, Huxley by WebZen will be a MMOFPS set in a post-apocalyptic environment and is slated for release in 2006. Since no MMOFPS has really set the MMO landscape on fire yet, it will be interesting to see where Huxley can take the genre. The key to success for a MMOFPS looking to lead this growing MMO niche will be intense action coupled with depth and great replay value. PlanetSide might be the best so MMOFPS so far, but it hasn’t exactly been a runaway hit. Hopefully, a new online shooter like Huxley can take the ball and run with it.

World of WarCraft Goodies
04-07-2005
Look for several improvements in the works by Blizzard for World of WarCraft in the coming weeks and months. Currently in development, PvP Battlegrounds will be aimed primarily at higher level players who have reached level 60 and want new challenges. In addition, the higher level players will also get a new raid dungeon and new items.
This is good news for players because it should take away one of the biggest complaints about WoW, lack of interest after hitting level 60. Some players can hit level 60 very quickly in WoW, so it has been a source for numerous arguments in the game. Keep an eye out for a WoW review and a WoW lair very soon on GameOgre.com.

First UMMORPG Canceled
02-08-2005
Last month, Mutable Realms decided to pull the plug on the highly touted first UMMORPG, Wish. For those of you getting tired of all the letters in front of RPG, UMMORPG stands for Ultra Massive Multiplayer Online RPG. The “Ultra” part meant that the game was supposed to allow more than 10,000 players in a single seamless world. The only reason that has been given is that data during beta testing was not good. Take note that the beta test did not last very long.
What does this mean for MMORPGs in general? Not too much since Wish was attempting something different but ultimately failed. According to their website, 68,000 players had signed up so it could have been a case of not being able to support as many players as they had anticipated.
If you played the beta test of Wish and you want give your feelings on it, you can do so on its review page.
City of Heroes

Free Model At Anarchy Online
01-30-2005
The free model at Anarchy Online that has been extended to 2006 continues to help strengthen the game’s already considerable customer base. Along with the upcoming release of Guild Wars, this move by Anarchy Online could be a sign of things to come in the MMORPG Arena. Simply put, some gamers are sick of monthly fees and these two games are attempting to satisfy those gamers.
New Owner For Horizons
01-29-2005
Tulga Games LLC has purchased the assets of the company that used to own Horizons, Artifact Entertainment. Since Artifact Entertainment was in bankruptcy, this is definitely a good sign for Horizons players during a time when quite a large number of MMORPGs are either failing or are being canceled in development.

World of Warcraft Frowns on Outside Trading of Items
12-12-2004
Unlike most other major MMORPGs, do not expect to find a large market for World of Warcraft goods on the Internet. Blizzard has taken a firm stance against the buying and selling of World of Warcraft’s in-game items. In short, both buyers and sellers will risk their accounts and more by participating in real money trades outside of the game.
New MMORPG Top Ten
12-02-2004
EverQuest 2 didn’t have long on top of Game Ogre’s Top Ten MMORPG list because World of Warcraft has already bumped it down a peg. WoW is simply one of the best MMORPGs ever because it does so many things well all at once like graphics, game play, low learning curve, and user-friendly interface. PlanetSide has been knocked from the list.
FreeWorld Alpha Test
11-28-2004
The following is from Draconus of FreeWorld
We are happy to announce that the next Alpha Test phase will open on the 15th of December. You will be able to download the game, get your account number and play the game as soon as your sign-up is completed. All sign-ups will be on a first come first served basis. We plan to try to keep the sign-ups open tell the 15th of January unless we reach the maximum capacity for the Alpha Test server. We hold the right to close the sign-ups at anytime and will only have 1 test server open. We expect the test spots will go fast, so you may want to make sure to sign-up as soon as possible.
We would like to remind everyone that this is a ALPHA TEST and not a Beta. Many things in the game will change before the final product and many game play systems and final art have not been added to the game yet. If you are looking to play test a game and help with ideas and bug finding then this is the opportunity you have been looking for. If your more interested in trying the game when it is more stable and a more polished product then we would suggest waiting tell the beta test.
I can’t wait to see you all in game and always KEEP FREEWORLDING!!!

Dawn of the Half-Life 2 Era
11-15-2004
With Half-Life 2 being released tomorrow, look for online gaming to be taken to the next level. Yes Doom 3 was a very important online shooter but it will not have the same overall impact that Half-Life 2 will. When it comes to modding and online play, Half-Life 2 is simply in a class all its own. Look for Half-Life 2 to climb to the top of GameOgre.com’s Top Ten Internet Games list very soon. In fact, HL2 is already ranked in our Review Directory’s Top Ten with a 9.25 rating as of this writing.
