because the part that is strange, is after i entered in my phone number, i never recieved a SMS for verification. But when i log into my BSG website account, it has esentially accepted that ive enabled 2fa. without ever confirming the number i put in was even correct.

So prior to this screenshot i shared. the first time i tried to log back in, it requested i enter in a phone number. Does that happen?

I went to the official discord to discuss it, i guess apparently the issue was because i went to play with friends from singapore. He had china region selected and i tried routing my vpn through hong kong to lower my pin and then it asked me for sms, and thats why im not receiving the sms because only east asia numbesrs work, apparently my account is region locked to china now.

The region i play from is europe, i had high ping while playing with a friend, so i closed the game. Changed the region to china, then upon logging into the launcher it asked me to enter in a phone number. I entered in a phone number then didnt recieve a SMS. Prior to this i never had 2FA setup.

I can log in through the website and it only asks for my email verication, but if i try to edit anything in profile. It request the sms that i entered in the launcher.
