Zone 9 Survival - a FPS Web3 gaming is striving to reach the level of quality found in traditional AAA games but can still face challenges in terms of security. This progress is often accompanied by new problems, including issues related to security and targeted by hackers. In today's article, we will explore a first-person shooter (FPS) game that faces these common obstacles but leverages Orochi Zero-Knowledge Proofs to tackle these challenges and enhance the overall gaming experience.
I. Zone 9 and their Web3 gaming challenges
Zone 9 Survival is a post-apocalyptic free-to-play MMORPG 3D game built in UnrealEngine5. The game features an immersive storyline licensed by the studio, advanced smart AI system for the NPCs, a guild system, an in-game e-sport concept, user-driven in-game economy.
Zone 9, as a Web3 game, encounters numerous challenges inherent to the Web3 gaming landscape. One notable area that demands considerable attention is the game economy, which necessitates a delicate balance between practicality and low latency to ensure an optimal user experience.
While certain well-known traditional MMO RPG like RuneScape have encountered inflation issues, there exist successful precedents in the gaming industry that have somewhat effectively addressed such vulnerabilities. Games such as World of Warcraft, EVE Online, and Ragnarok Online have implemented intriguing game economies that have effectively mitigated inflation risks.
With the advancement of Blockchain technology, Zone 9 now presents a robust solution, offering a strong and resilient game economy with minimized latency, ultimately enhancing the gaming experience for its users. You can refer to how Zone 9 does it in the following research Monetizing_Inflation_Zone_9_Survival’s_novel_framework_for_MMORPGs.pdf. However, Zone 9 can still be troubled with other problems that we will list below.
Zone 9 has encountered other specific challenges related to randomness that necessitate resolution. These challenges include:
- Anti-Cheating Measures: Cheating and hacking can pose privacy risks as they often involve unauthorized access to player data or manipulation of game mechanics. According to EY, 47% of FPS game creators are facing a lot of difficulties in controlling users using hacks like aimbot, one-shot, etc.
- Personal Communication Privacy: In-game chat and messaging systems may require privacy protections to prevent unauthorized access or monitoring. 62% of players worldwide may disclose their information through personal chat. That's how the US CISA has informed the current game titles need to focus on protecting users' messages and privacy.
- Secure Item Transactions: In-game purchases and trading of items can involve sensitive financial information. Despite the prevalence of secure payment methods, instances of unauthorized access and fraudulent transactions in the gaming industry still occur, with an estimated 2% to 5% of in-game transactions being affected by fraud.
Orochi Network, a operating system applying Zero-Knowledge proof, and Orand, a product developed by Orochi Network utilizing Elliptic Curve Verifiable Random Functions (ECVRF), offers a comprehensive solution to address these challenges.
Orochi brings a plethora of benefits to Zone 9, enhancing various aspects of its products and services. With Orochi’s cryptographic algorithms, Zone 9 users can expect unmanipulated outcomes, ensuring the integrity of the randomization process.
