[About the Schedule for the \"Tiered Client Resource Downloads\" Limited Test]
\n
✦Test Participants and Test Schedule
\n
PC (※Official Launcher): The test will become available in stages on PC following the Version 3.7 update.
\n
iOS/Android Mobile: The test will become available on all iOS/Android mobile devices following the Version 3.7 update.
\n
 
\n
✦Notes✦
\n
- We will soon (during Version 3.6) make a PC launcher update available to some of the Rovers who are granted access to the limited test. However, the \"Tiered Client Resource Downloads\" feature will only go live after the Version 3.7 update. During Version 3.6, being granted access to the limited test will not affect your current gaming experience.
\n
- Following the Version 3.7 update, Rovers who have not been granted access to the limited test will have their resource package updated to the High-Definition (HD) version by default. Once you enter the test, you can adjust the resource tier based on your needs.
\n
※The feature will also be gradually made available on PC platforms with non-official launchers after the test concludes. Please stay tuned for future announcements.
\n
 
\n
✦Additional Notes on the Limited Test and Version 3.7 Pre-Download
\n
PC (※Official Launcher):
\n
- For Rovers who are granted access to the limited test and update the official launcher during Version 3.6, Version 3.7 pre-download will be temporarily unavailable due to cross-version functionality differences. You may select and download a suitable resource tier after the Version 3.7 update.
\n
- For Rovers who do not gain access to the limited test during Version 3.6, pre-download will remain available, and if they use the pre-download feature, the High-Definition (HD) resource tier will be downloaded by default. After gaining test access in Version 3.7, you can then choose a resource tier based on your needs.
\n
 
\n
iOS/Android Mobile:
\n
- Once Version 3.7 pre-download becomes available, only a portion of the resources will be pre-downloaded on iOS and Android mobile devices. The remaining tiered resources will be downloaded separately after the Version 3.7 update, based on the package selected.
\n
※The Pre-download feature from Version 3.7 onward will function as usual, and the pre-downloaded resources will be of the same tier as your currently selected resources.
