2. Map rotation: Our primary goal this Beta Seasonwas testing the mode’s core functionality. The rank-based balance we introducedadded an extra rule for the matchmaker: along with considering templates, thenumber of SPGs, and vehicle types of each side, it also aims to match youagainst players of comparable rank.

2、地图轮转系统：我们这次测试阶段的首要目的是测试本模式的核心功能。在排位赛的分房系统中我们额外添加了一项规则：除去考虑尽量按照模板来匹配火炮数量和双方车型配比之外，分房系统同时也会尽量将你与处于相近/同的阶/星数的玩家匹配。

Including map rotation into the equationwould have resulted in longer waiting time, discouraging players and hamperingthe test. We turned it off for the Beta Season to collect substantial data, andare now working on bringing it back and minimizing its effect on queue time.

在此之上如果考虑到地图轮转，排位时间会更长，这会打击玩家的积极性，对本次测试并无裨益。本次测试中我们关闭了地图轮转，今后我们将重新开启并尽量降低它对排队等待时间的影响。

3. Progression: Ranks are here to symbolize aplayer’s mastery (they serve as a mark of personal excellence of sorts), andwe’d like to stress it even further. We’re considering several variants here,ranging from tweaks to the number of chevrons between ranks and/or the numberof ranks through to revising the overall season structure (the number of stagesper season, their duration). Leveling to the highest Rank will require a lot ofskill and more time, but the greater the effort, the sweeter the reward!

3、进展：排位是为了体现玩家的水准，我们希望在此之上更进一步。我们考虑了几种变量：升级到不同等级所需要拿到的肩章，以及整个赛季的结构(每个赛季的阶段数，每个阶段持续多久)等。升到最高的等级需要相当的水平和时间，不过当然啦，付出的越多，拿到的奖励就越丰厚!

Along withoverall enhancements to the mode, we’re evaluating the standalone new featurethat was first tested during the Beta Season—Bonds—and the new rewards(Improved Equipment and Directives). We’re considering a few options here:limitations on Improved Equipment, expanding the list of items you can purchasewith Bonds, making them available through other game modes, and more. Just aswith other areas for improvement, we’ll keep you informed every step of the way.

除去这些改进之外，我们还在测试阶段评估了新的特性——债券，以及新的奖励(紫装以及绿装，就是临时的buff)。我们考虑了几种可能：限制高级装备的数量，增加可以使用债券购买的物品，使债券在其它游戏模式中也可获得，等等。跟其它改进一样，每一点改动我们都会让你们知晓。

It’ll takeus some time to introduce and test these tweaks. We’ll announce the dates anddetails for the next season when we finalize the set of changes and label themready for another iteration of testing. As always, keep your eyes glued to thewebsite for more Ranked Battles news coming your way, and thanks again forjoining us for the Beta Season!

引入、调试这些改动将会花费一些时间。当我们定下来改动并确保它们已经准备好迎接新一轮的测试的时候，我们会放出下一个赛季的日期和具体细节。请如往常一样继续关注我们的网站以获取更多有关排位赛的信息，再次感谢参与本次测试赛季!
