Valve[THE ELEAGUE ATLANTA 2017 CS:GO MAJOR CHAMPIONSHIP]

For more details, visit http://www.counter-strike.net/pickem/atlanta2017
– Team stickers can be used as game pieces for the Atlanta 2017 Team Pick’Em Challenge.
— Group stage picks can be made immediately, Playoff picks can be made when the group stage has completed.
— Group stage picks lock at the start of the group stage matches.
— Playoff picks lock at the start of the first Playoff matches.
[GAMEPLAY]
– Players killed during grenade-throwing animation will no longer drop a duplicate grenade if that grenade has already been thrown.
– func_breakables will no longer make noise when hits deal no damage.
[MISC]
– Added a server setting sv_steamauth_enforce to allow tournament organizers for LAN events to delay player kick due to No Steam Logon client issue until the end of a live round when tournament match will automatically pause and a round backup with all correct information will be saved for reconnect.
[AUDIO]
– Lowered volume of bullet-bys and bullet impacts.
– Changed default weapon near/far crossfade max distance so that a slight perceived volume bump doesn’t happen at crossfade junctions.
– Also lowered volume of distant weapons slightly to address the same issue.
– Slightly increased the min distance of the falloff so that 3rd parties can hear max volume at about 1m away from shooter.
– Increased the input curve amount so that rate of volume decay over distance is more pronounced.
– Added descriptions to many mixer groups.

Rumor has it:

- The Mega Bundle consists of:

- One graffiti for each of the participating teams
- One autograph capsule for each of the participating teams
- One ELEAGUE sticker/graffiti

- Souvenir cases are returning for the ELEAGUE Major, here's Cache's case:

- You can get souvenir cases by watching in-game, or on Twitch with a linked Steam account

- Full-resolution versions of the Pick'Em Challenge trophies: Bronze, Silver, and Gold
- Player Pick'Em appears to be a goner.

- Not mentioned was the fact that Christmas decorations have been packed away, they'll be collecting dust for about 11 months

- A lot of low-level stuff was shuffled around: https://github.com/SteamDatabase/GameTracking-CSGO/commit/4f573e8b0125f28c275a673d790a32a629bf1f11
- Do you remember "PlayerDecalDigitalSignature" being found in a protobuf with the 12/14/16 (12/15/16 UTC) update? Unfortunately, fears that it was going to be scrapped turned out to be true

- Not necessarily part of this update, but you should be aware anyway: earlier in the day with update #1 for Dota 2, currency conversion rates were altered in an item schema update. If you're in Japan or Norway, expect things to be a bit more expensive. If you're in Colombia, expect things to be a bit cheaper. Theoretically, if Steam supported Australia's dollar, you'd expect things to be a bit more expensive, but unfortunately they're still stuck paying USD at the mercy of rates separate from Valve's
