Ai Caramba.

I doubt this would ever happen, but it would be nice if this put an end to all the ridiculous exclusive license BS, that EA started, and let each game purchase whatever licenses they want and actually let the gameplay be the deciding factor of who has the better soccer/football game between PES and FIFA. Lets see who can be more creative year in and year out when you don't have exclusive licenses to fall back on.

As a person who wants as much depth as possible in the game, this is unfortunate. But it's also not a big deal for me. I have never played the Brazilian league, never had the desire to, and I honestly cannot say I scouted many players from that league even though there was a solid talent pool.

Anyway... does anyone actually know what changes were made to the way Brazilian players are licensed and how that may have affected negotiations?

Any chance this means they won't have the real teams, but they can still have the real players on generically named teams?

No the issue is the player licenses. So they will most likely have real teams with fake players. Or just no Brazil league at all.

I was really looking forward to having some of the World Cup stadiums added to the game. Oh well, I guess that won't be happening anytime soon. Maybe for FIFA 16 their new feature will be customized leagues and a EA locker to share them with the community.

Bummer. Like others have said, a big part of the fun of the inclusion of the Brazilian league players was discovering young gems hidden down there.

Here is where custom leagues and Teambuilder would come in handy. Never understood why EA only used Teambuilder for NCAA.
