  • Deep Learning for Classifying Battlefield 4 Players
    Deep Learning for Classifying Battlefield 4Players B Marjolein de Vries and Pieter Spronck( ) Tilburg Center for Cognition and Communication, Tilburg University, Tilburg, Netherlands [email protected], [email protected] Abstract. In our research, we aim to predict attributes of human play- ers based on observations of their gameplay. If such predictions can be made with sufficient accuracy, games can use them to automatically adapt to the player’s needs. In previous research, however, no conven- tional classification techniques have been able to achieve accuracies of sufficient height for this purpose. In the present paper, we aim to find out if deep learning networks can be used to build accurate classifiers for gameplay behaviours. We compare a deep learning network with logistic regression and random forests, to predict the platform used by Battle- field 4 players, their nationality and their gaming culture. We find that deep learning networks provide significantly higher accuracies and supe- rior generalization when compared to the more conventional techniques for some of these tasks. Keywords: Deep learning · Computer games · Player classification 1 Introduction In recent years, research into gaming and how people interact with games has received much interest. That interest stems partially from the advent of so-called “serious games”, i.e., games used for educational purposes [5]. While most serious games use a “one size fits all” approach to their users, adapting a game to a user’s personality, skills, and needs, has the potential to make the games more effective [10]. Developers have thus shown interest in modeling the characteristics and behaviours of game players [11].

  • Understanding the Current State of Toxicity in Battlefield V
    “ROFL F*ck You”: Understanding the Current State of Toxicity in Battlefield V By Justin Juvrud Supervisor: Dr Susann Baez Ullberg 2020 Nr 99 2 Abstract: With the birth of “virtual worlds,” created a new space for social norms to evolve and change within a subset community. This thesis focuses on toxicity within the virtual world of EA DICE’s Battlefield V title. The goal of this research is to understand toxicity on a micro scale inside the world of Battlefield V from a gaming anthropological perspective. Along with understanding what toxicity looked like within the virtual world ofBattlefield V, the thesis obtained data for how the community and EA DICE employees perceived toxicity. This research has components of interviews with these members of the communities/staff as well as a netnography of the virtual world of Battlefield V gameplay. Findings and analysis were categorized under the themes of toxic language, power/freedom, virtual world creation, and gender toxicity. Battlefield V toxicity is ever evolving and shaped by player techne (player actions). Player chat consumes the majority of toxicity and therefore diving into toxic language was vital. Understanding the player perspective of power and freedom while gaming was just the first step as the thesis also dove into the developer’s perspective and analyzed the interviews with the backbone of Malaby’s (2009) contingency concepts to see how the developers have a large role to play when it comes to toxicity in games, even if they may not realize it. Just as in the “real world” the virtual world of Battlefield V also had a major theme of gender discrimination winessed and discussed via both community members and staff members of EA DICE.
