Assuming the basic shape and construction of the field is the same, including the yellow plates (a big assumption!), there could very easily be four gates, each between a pair of the yellow plates. Aside from that, the gates appear to look the same way they always have. Of course, they might just be pulling a fast one on us...

My only reaction to the yellow plates is that they are there for a purpose. ( And have been for a number of years...)
they cover up a brace (which lies underneath) to hold up the side of the field.

Two would be necessary for two braces.... on last year's field... a brace on the side closest to the end was NOT necessary because of the way the field was constructed in the corners.

If anything if we make the assumption that the gates are in the same place as other years in relation to the ends, this would indicate that the corners of the field are not like last year and need a brace on the outside to support the side of the field.

Another assumption could be made that the gates have been moved closer to the middle... and that more bracing is needed because of that...

Remember its a render... and not complete...hence the absence of detail.

I say it means "not regolith" and that's about all we can say..

I can't wait until HINT #3 which will come on Saturday...around 7:00 AM my time....

It will be a really big hint....
