[CN/国服] Guidance for Mainland China Players
[h3]Dear Players,[/h3]
We hope this message finds you well. With the imminent launch of Battle Teams 2 Global version, we understand that many of our Mainland China players have questions and concerns. We appreciate your passion and engagement with the game, and we want to take a moment to address some of your most common queries.
[h3]Q1: What’s the difference between Mainland China and Global?[/h3]
Mainland China version - the version of the game currently operated exclusively in Mainland China. Released June 2022.
Mainland China players - players who fulfill exactly one of the following conditions:
- Steam users who play the Mainland China version.
- Steam users do not currently play the Mainland China version and whose accounts are registered in Mainland China.
Global version - the version of the game scheduled for release in all world regions except Mainland China on February 1 2024 (PST).
Global players - players with Steam accounts registered in all territories except Mainland China.
Global Playtest - a technical playtest operated for the Global version only, in advance of full release. Mainland China players cannot join this event without switching to the Global version. Details below.
[h3]Q2: As a Mainland China player, can I play together with Global players?[/h3]
We have deployed several regional servers for the Global version to provide players with a better combat experience. Servers for the Global version are completely independent from those operated for the Chinese version. This means that player data between the two versions will be completely independent and not interchangeable. Players running the Global version cannot connect to Mainland China servers and vice versa.
[h3]Q3: What content differences are there between the two versions?[/h3]
The content of the Mainland China version and the Global version is not consistent. They operate separate content. Details to follow in future announcements.
For example, in this Global Playtest version, progress in "Infestation" is available only up to "City of Calamity - Heroic Difficulty."
[h3]Q4: How do I switch versions?[/h3]
- Mainland China players switching to the Global version -
If you are already playing the Mainland China version and want to switch to the Global version, you should first confirm that your Steam account is registered outside Mainland China. Then remove the Mainland China version from your Library and add the Global version to complete the switch. ✨Please note that it's crucial to remove the Mainland China version from your Steam library; simply uninstalling the game won't suffice.
✨ Important Note 1: Due to server rules, the same Steam account can only operate one game version. This rule will be officially implemented after the full release of the Global version. Account region adjustments will take effect immediately after this and cannot be reversed. Once your account switches from the Chinese server to the Global server, we cannot perform server switching operations for your account.
Please note that even if your account meets the criteria and you complete the switch to the Global version, you will thereafter no longer be able to use the same account to enter the Mainland China version.
✨ Important Note 2: Please note, if you switch your Mainland China account to the Global version through the above steps, although your character data will still be retained, your data from the Mainland China version will not be transferred to any character on the Global version.
- Global players switching to the Mainland China version -
✨We apologize for any inconvenience. Once your account activates the Global version, you won't be able to switch back to the Mainland China version through the aforementioned steps. We are unable to perform server-switching operations on your account.
[h3]Q5: How exactly will servers work with the two versions？[/h3]
- Mainland China Server -
Mainland China players will not be affected by the Global version launch. Players running the Mainland China version can still play together with other players on the Mainland China server as normal.
The Mainland China server and Global servers are not interoperable, and players cannot be matched.
- Global Server -
After launching the Global version of the game, you will enter the server selection interface. Based on your region and the displayed server ping values on the interface, please choose an appropriate server to enter the game for the best gaming experience. You can freely switch your server each time you enter the game, but we recommend selecting the server with the lowest ping values according to your network conditions for the optimal gaming experience.
✨Please note that a game account you create on one server cannot be used on others. For example, a game account created on a European/American server cannot be used on the Southeast Asian servers, and vice versa.
Considering the impact of ping values on gaming experience, Global players can only be matched with players in the same major region. For example, players on European and American servers can only be matched with other players on European and American servers and cannot be matched with players on Southeast Asian servers.
The rules of the Mainland China Server stipulate that Global servers cannot connect to the Mainland China Server.
[h3]Q6: What impact will the Global version launch have on Mainland China players?[/h3]
- Veteran players -
Mainland China players will not be affected by the Global version launch and will still default to the Mainland China version. We will continue to operate the Mainland China version as normal. Players running the Mainland China version can still play together with other players on the Mainland China server as normal.
If your Steam account is registered in Mainland China, you will not be affected.
If your account is registered outside Mainland China, and you have been playing the Mainland China version, you can still run the Mainland China version normally and your account will not automatically switch to the Global version.
Only when you manually switch versions will your game version switch to the Global version. [For information on how to switch, please see Question 4]
- New players -
For new players joining after the official release of the Global version, which version you enter depends on the region of your account at the time of adding the game.
If your Steam account is registered in Mainland China, you will add the Mainland China version; if your account is registered outside Mainland China, you will add the Global version.
The Battle Teams 2 team will continuously monitor your feedback. If you have any comments or encounter any issues, feel free to join our Steam Community. We are at your service!
Thank you for your continued support,
The Battle Teams 2 Team

[h3]亲爱的狙友，[/h3]
随着《生死狙击2》海外版本即将上线，我们看到国服玩家们提出了许多问题和疑虑。感谢大家对游戏的热情支持，我们将在这里解答大家的一些疑问：
[h3]Q1：国服与海外版本数据是否互通？[/h3]
由于我们为海外版本搭建了数个地区的服务器，以为玩家提供更好的战斗体验，因此海外版本的服务器与中国版本的服务器是完全独立的。这意味着两个版本的玩家数据将会完全独立，无法互通。
若您切换您的国服账户至海外版本后，您在国服版本的数据将无法继承至海外版本的游戏角色【切换步骤详情请查Q3】。
[h3]Q2：国服与海外版本内容是否一致？[/h3]
国服版本与海外版本的内容不一致，且发布计划并不相通，具体的发布内容请以更新公告为准。以本次Playtest版本为例，星耀无限模式进度仅开放至灾厄都市-英雄难度。
[h3]Q3：如何进行版本切换？[/h3]
- 国服版本玩家切换至海外版本 -
对于已经在游玩《生死狙击2-国服》的玩家而言，若您想要转移战场至海外版本，首先需要确认您的Steam账号归属地为中国大陆以外的地区，再移除国服版本并重新入库海外版本即可完成切换。✨请注意必须将国服版本从您的Steam库中移除，仅卸载不会产生作用。
✨由于服务器规则的限制，同一个Steam账户仅能适用一个游戏版本。该规则将在海外版本上线后正式启用。在此之后对于账号归属的调整将即时生效，并且无法再被恢复。这意味着您的账户一旦自中国服务器切换至海外服务器，由于涉及Steam官方的账户归属地设置，我们无法再对您的账户进行服务器切换的操作。
因此请注意，即使您的账户符合条件，我们仍不建议您进行此操作!
✨一旦您的账户自中国服务器版本转移至海外版本，您将无法再使用同一账户进入中国服务器版本,请注意，若您通过上述步骤切换您的国服账户至海外版本，您在国服版本的数据将无法继承至海外版本的游戏角色上，但角色数据仍会在国服版本保留。
- 海外版本玩家切换至国服版本 -
✨很抱歉，一旦您的账户激活了海外版本，您将无法再通过上述步骤重新切换回中国版本。受限于Steam的账户归属地规则，我们无法再对您的账户进行服务器切换的操作。
[h3]Q4：国服和海外服务器是如何运作的？[/h3]
- 国服服务器 -
国服服务器没有任何改动，仍然将为中国大陆玩家提供服务，仍然支持与国服其他所有渠道进行匹配。
国服服务器无法与海外服务器相连，国服玩家无法与海外玩家进行匹配。
- 海外服务器 -
您在启动海外版本游戏后，将会进入服务器选择界面。您需要根据您所在的地区及界面上显示的地区服务器Ping值，选择一个合适的服务器进入游戏，以获得最好的游戏体验。您可以在每次进入游戏时自由切换您的服务器，但我们推荐您根据网络情况选择距离Ping值最低的服务器，以获得最好的游戏体验。
✨请注意，欧美服务器与东南亚服务器的数据并不相通，您在进入这两个服务器时将会创建完全独立的游戏角色，角色的账号数据互不相通。
考虑到Ping值对于游戏体验的影响，海外玩家仅能与同大区玩家进行匹配，即欧美服务器玩家仅能匹配到欧美服玩家而无法匹配到东南亚服玩家。
与国服服务器规则一致，海外服务器无法与国服服务器相连。
[h3]Q5：海外版本上线对于国服玩家有什么影响？[/h3]
- 老玩家 -
国服玩家启动游戏不会受海外版本影响，仍然将默认启动国服版本。
若您的Steam账户所属地为中国大陆，您将不会受到任何影响。
若您的账户所属地为中国大陆以外地区，且您已经在国服进行游戏，您的账户仍然可以正常启动国服版本而不会被自动切换至海外版本。
仅当您手动执行切换版本步骤后，您的游戏版本才会切换至海外版本。【具体的切换步骤，请继续查阅第4条的讯息】
- 新狙友 -
对于在海外版本正式发行后新加入的狙友而言，进入的是哪个版本将取决于游戏入库时的账户所属地。
若您的Steam账户所属地为中国大陆，您入库的将是国服版本；若您的账户所属地为中国大陆以外地区，您入库的将是海外版本。
我们感谢每一位国服玩家的支持与理解。期待与您一同分享《生死狙击2》的精彩时刻！
