Let's debunk some misconceptions surrounding how player data is used in games with this very special Data Driven Games edition of #SumoMythbusters 🕵️♂️ Keep reading to learn how collected data informs devs on how players interact with games and helps them improve their IP 👇 When we talk about data in games, most people think this refers to personal data such as demographics. But players can be assured that #LiveOps teams aren't usually interested in their personal lives, but instead are looking to collect behaviour analytics. These are called telemetry events. There are many types of telemetry events, but here's just a few: ➡️ Acquisition: How are players first finding the game? ➡️ Interface Usage: How are players interacting with UI, where are they navigating to & how long is it taking them? ➡️ Setting Usage: What settings are players using? These telemetry events can then inform a huge range of metrics that Data and Development teams can use to measure success, such as Retention and Peak Concurrent Users. They can also discover where players are getting stuck, and work to create a smoother experience for players. Since its early inception in 2021, Stampede: Racing Royale has had Data Experts working with the team to analyse player data. Want to help improve the game? #StampedeRacingRoyale is available to play during Early Access now on Xbox Game Preview ❗ Check it out: bit.ly/3Wfa6R7 Eager to learn more detective? 🕵️ We have an in-depth article that covers this exact topic 💡 Discover how data can impact the lifespan of a video games and its success from data experts Laine Baker & Sean Quinn from Sumo Sheffield and Sumo Leamington 👇 🔗 https://bit.ly/3LKSmqv

Greetings and salutations my wonderful network of consummate professionals! I'm fortunate enough to be attending Gamescom this year and would be flattered to once again make sure the faces I see on camera have bodies attached to them. I've got a few meeting slots left Tuesday-Thursday. Let me know when and where you are available and we'll try and get chats/coffee/tiny beers set up! I'm here to talk all things contracts, licensing and Sumo (as well as generally say hi so amazing people).
