In the meantime - all the latest and most interesting things about Ranked Battles. Read and do not forget to share your opinions in a special topic on the forum. This will help us customize the update in more detail.

Ranked battles

The first beta season of Ranked Battles has just ended. We have analyzed all your feedback and want to make changes that should improve in the second beta season game process. These are the ones we will be testing as part of the general test of update 9.20.

Base mechanic changes

One of the most discussed topics on the forum concerned the simplicity of the mode. Basic mechanics the selection of players equal in skill worked, however, reaching the fifth rank was not a real difficulty for experienced tankers.

We tried to fix this by changing the mechanics of earning chevrons and ranks. The number of ranks will remain the same, but the number of chevrons required to reach the ranks will change. The distance between ranks will be as follows: 1-3-5-7-9 chevrons. It only takes one chevron to reach rank one, and as many as nine are needed to advance from rank four to five.

In addition, the mechanics of vehicle ranks will change. In the second beta season, any rank will cost 5 chevrons.

The mechanics of obtaining chevrons will also change. On the winning team, chevrons are earned by the top 10 players by experience. The remaining 5 winning players, as well as the top 5 players on the losing team, do not earn a chevron. Finally, the remaining 10 players on the losing team lose their chevron.

In this way, we want to encourage players to interact: despite personal results in Ranked Battles, victory remains a team achievement. That is why we have expanded the list of players who do not lose a chevron if the team loses. This means that even if the battle goes poorly and the enemy pushes in all directions, you should not give up. You must continue to help the allies - your efforts will be rewarded.

Balancer Improvements

We found several critical points related to balance. And here's how we're going to solve them:

  • We will improve the balance between teams in terms of the number of averages and heavy tanks.
  • We will limit the number of self-propelled guns per team to two units.
  • Let's add more maps and significantly improve their rotation. Due to this, the chances of getting on the same card all the time will decrease.

Reward

We will also review the mechanics of receiving rewards. From now on, you won't have to wait until the end of the season to get the bulk of the coupons you earn. The value of awards will also increase.

Testing stages

Testing of the second beta season of Ranked Battles will take place during the Public Test of Update 9.20. Join us - the next stage will last until August 9th.

Your feedback about the changes in the game is very important to us. Leave comments on the forum and share your opinions about Ranked Battles.
