Exclusively? Then why does Winning Eleven/PES have licensed teams? Including Chelsea, Arsenal, Real Madrid? They aren't exclusive as far as that goes. You dont have the slightest idea what your saying.
I'll say this again, I have not as long as I remember seen any EA Representative do anything about community modding. If you look at any PES site you will see tons of people making kits that Konami dosen't have the license for. Obviously EA dosen't care enough to go around and sue individuals
who are just creating kits in their spare time. I'm not selling this mod EA dosen't have a thing to worry about either. Even if they did, they would go after the PES players first because Konami is their competitior. A huge gaming company like EA have better things to do than to go out and sue "kit makers". Whos going to waste their time doing that? We have had IOS for HL1 out for 2 years. I have not seen anything of the sort happen to the MOD either. I haven't seen SONY or Square Enix come after you for modding your Final Fantasy model into JKA. This arguement is ridiculous.
I think the bigger question though is, why are you so concerned? You really shouldn't freak out.
