  • There have been many researches on the characteristics of item trade. However, most researches were done by carrying out a survey and there has been few researches by analyzing the economy in online games. So, this article studied the cause of item trade by looking into the supply and demand of items in online games. The results shows that item trade is taking place mostly among only a few number of gamers who enjoy enchanting and who engage in castle sieges and blood pledge battles. The proportion of item trade by general garners is not so big. And major item providers are gold farms, not garners. Therefore, item trade is mostly carried out by a large number of garners who trade a small amount of sum and by a small number of heavy garners who trade large amount of sum. Understanding this characteristic of item trade would be a good ground for reviewing the policies and social effect regarding item trades.

  • 얼마전 온라인 게임 개발업체인 유리텍의 계정거래 허용방침이 발표되면서 온라인 상에는 계정 및 아이템의 현금 거래에 대한 찬반 논쟁이 뜨겁다. 수년 전부터 계속된 계정 및 아이템의 현금거래 문제는 게임사들의 허용불가 방침에도 불구하고 오히려 거래 시장규모가 더욱 커지고 있는 상황이다. 특히 지난해 아이템 거래 수수료 시장규모가 1500억원대에 이른 것으로 집계되면서 일각에선 유리텍과 같이 현금거래를 양성화하자는 의견도 커져가고 있다. 온라인 상에서 다시 한번 불붙은 계정 및 아이템 거래에 대한 문제를 살펴봤다.

A total of 413 adults participated and demographic and psychosocial variables were collected using Cloninger's Temperament and Character Inventory, Cognitive Emotion Regulation Questionnaire, and Daily Hassles Scale for Korean Worker. The results are as follows. First, two-third of gamers used the random item games and women are more engaged than men in random item games. Second, there were significant differences of gaming disorder tendency, game use time, and game use money (both for general and random item) depending on the item use type. Third, predictors of gaming disorder tendency were found as game use money (general), game use time, maladaptive emotion regulation, stress, novelty seeking, and stress using multiple regression analysis. Proper intervention for gaming disorder tendency and the need of further research were discussed.

  • MMORPG genre is based on the belief that all users in virtual world are equal. All users are able to obtain the corresponding wealth or status as they strive under the same resource, time. However, game bot is the main factor for harming this fair competition, causing benign gamers to feel a relative deprivation and deviate from the game. Game bots mainly form GFG(Gold Farming Group), which collects the goods in the game indiscriminately and adversely affects the economic system of the game. A general game bot detection algorithm is useful for detecting each bot, but it only covers few portions of GFG, not the whole, so it needs a wider range of detecting method. In this paper, we propose a method of detecting GFG based on items used in MMORPG genre. Several items that are mainly traded in the game were selected and the flows of those items were represented by a network. We Identified the characteristics of exchanging items of GFG bots and can identify the GFG's item trade network with real datasets from one of the popular online games.

  • As game item trading becomes more popular with the rapid growth of online game market, the market for trading game items by cash has increased up to KRW 1.6 trillion. Thanks to this active market, it has been easy to turn these items and game money into real money. As a result, some malicious users have often attempted to steal other players' rare and valuable game items by using their account. Therefore, this study proposes a detection model through analysis on these account thieves' behavior in the Massive Multiuser Online Role Playing Game(MMORPG). In case of online game identity theft, the thieves engage in economic activities only with a goal of stealing game items and game money. In this pattern are found particular sequences such as item production, item sales and acquisition of game money. Based on this pattern, this study proposes a detection model. This detection model-based classification revealed 86 percent of accuracy. In addition, trading patterns when online game identity was stolen were analyzed in this study.

  • This study is an interaction design study which can improve the usability of random item boxes that are used as in - game contents in Korean mobile games. Currently, Korean mobile game sales continue to rise. Sales of random item boxes are the main reason for the increase in sales. Problems with the use of random item boxes have been continuously raised, and legal regulations are currently in place. When using random item boxes, the user can not know the exact percentage information. There is a concern that this expresses gambling. In this context, we have studied interaction design to improve the usability of random item boxes, and conducted user online surveys and in - depth interviews to provide users with a better game experience. As a result, it is shown that providing percentage information intuitively when using random item boxes can enhance user experience. Through this study, it is expected that interaction design research will be actively conducted to provide a better user experience when using random item boxes.

  • 국내 모바일 MMORPG 시장에서 구글플레이 스토어, 앱 스토어의 매출 순위를 보면 순위 안에 있는 게임 중에 가챠 시스템이 없는 게임을 찾기가 힘들 정도로 모바일게임에서 가챠 시스템은 게임의 전체 매출에서 많은 비중을 차지한다. 과거 가챠 시스템으로 인하여 사행성과 과금 유도가 너무 심해져 2015년 확률형 아이템 규제 법안이 발의되어 현재까지 게임회사들은 확률을 공개해왔다. 하지만 공개된 확률에는 유저들이 모르는 큰 오류가 존재한다. 본 논문에서 그 오류를 알아보고 모바일 게임 가챠 시스템의 건전성을 확보하기 위한 방안을 제시하고자 한다.

  • In this paper, we analyze the current trading systems and suggest two secure electronic trading systems that make a fair exchange for online game items. The system is made up for the weak points in the current item trading system. In the proposed system, a game server issues a certificate each item on the user's request. On the one hand, this certificate is used to recover the item when the system error is occured. On the other hand, the user may exchange it with another item or cyber money. The proposed system supports private and reliable trading. Further, the trading can be completed only by online processing.
