On October 22, Valve released an update to Counter Strike: Global Offensive, which included materials related to PGL Major 2021. Players will have access to stickers with the symbols of participating teams, patches, and a “Spectator Pass.” The latter is available in two versions, differing in price. It gives you access to emoticons, graffiti, and in a more expensive version, additional tokens that will be needed to obtain souvenir items. Part of the funds from the sale of cosmetic items with the symbols of the participants of the major is transferred to the teams.
Holders of the “Spectator Pass” will be able to use unlimited amounts of graffiti and emoticons with team symbols, buy themed stickers and patches, and also receive souvenir sets. In addition, after the end of the Major, personalized stickers will be added for those teams that manage to qualify for the playoffs.
In addition, the October 22nd update added several non-Major fixes. In particular, bugs related to the purchase of grenades have been eliminated, and the behavior algorithms of bots have been improved. New commands have appeared in them, as a result of which the behavior of bots when detecting other players or when using grenades has become more logical.
