Undersökning om spelares uppfattning om latency i realtidsstrategispel / Study on the player's perception of latency in real-time strategy games

Lövelius, Marcus, Romin, Oscar January 2013 (has links)
In this study we examine how much latency is required in an RTS-game (Real-Time Strategy) before the player quits the game. In the study latency is simulated in the games Age of Mythology and Starcraft: Brood War with the program WANem, and then the testplayers are asked “Do you want to quit because of latency?”. This data is then gathered and compiled into graphs to show the results. These results show that the limit for when players want to quit differs between the two games and that there are two factors that play into this. These factors are mainly the games mechanic, how the game is played, and how the game itself handles the latency. The results show that the limit for when players want to quit in Age of Mythology lies around 1000 ms, while in Starcraft: Brood War the limit is around 600 ms. / I denna studie undersöks det hur hög latency som krävs i ett RTS-spel (RealtidsStrategi) innan spelaren avslutar spelet. I studien simuleras latency i spelen Age of Mythology och Starcraft: Brood War med hjälp av programmet WANem, därefter får testpersonerna följande fråga ställda till sig: “Vill du sluta spela på grund av latency?”, denna data samlas sedan in och kompileras till grafer för att kunna visa resultaten. Resultaten som studien får fram är att gränsen skiljer sig mellan spelen och att det finns två faktorer som bidrar till detta, faktorerna är Spelets mekanik och Hur spelet hanterar latency. De siffror som studien har fått fram är att gränsen i Age of Mythology ligger på cirka 1000 ms medan gränsen i Starcraft: Brood War ligger på cirka 600 ms.
