Also extremely restrictive for kits. Four colours, limited placements for sponsors, poor warping etc
Extremely restrictive? I disagree. There are some truly amazing creations that were done. Sure, some things couldn't be done and some limitations existed but a lot of great work was created which was true to form. Nothing is ever perfect and even for example Skyrim has its limitations with modding
Of course this is all just my opinion it's not a knock on the creators I just don't think the system lends itself to being as good as what can be done with a modded version
But, some kits require to change certain colours and ad placements on the uniform after copy and pasting the texture. Personally, that was a pain. I prefer the proper kits coming from the in-game sharing service
What are you arguing here? What ad placements had to be changed, I don't understand this. The colours had to be changed, how was that a hard thing to do? It takes all of a minute to set it up. Your laziness does not mean the system was difficult.
That's what I meant, this was a big reason why I continued with the academy creations in 14 instead of downloading mods, especially kits!
I've come to the conclusion that you're making up the story as you go along without knowing why. There is absolutely no way you can look at mattyg, quincy, faizk or friedlele for example and say that their creations don't match up against stuff made in the academy. I don't mean to sound rude or anything so don't take what I say to heart but I've taken a lot of screenshots of this game and I'm prepared to upload a small sample of them to prove that the modded kits look truly amazing and that nothing created in the academy can even compare.
