Dear EA Sports Development Team,
I am writing to kindly request a review of the attributes assigned to the recently released 112 OVR Ballon d'Or version of Kaká in FC Mobile.
While it is exciting to see Kaká receive a high-rated card, two specific stat allocations seem inconsistent with both his real-world legacy and current in-game standards.
Firstly, his Weak Foot rating remains at 4/5. Historically, Kaká was renowned for his exceptional ambidexterity, effectively using both feet for shooting, passing, and dribbling. This is formally recognized by the reputable football data source Transfermarkt, which lists his foot preference as "both" (evidence: https://www.transfermarkt.com/kaka/profil/spieler/3366). Given that other contemporary players like Gyökeres and Richarlison receive 5-star Weak Foot ratings, maintaining Kaká at 4 stars appears to be an oversight that undervalues a key aspect of his playing style.
Secondly, his maximum Speed stat of 165 feels significantly underpowered. At his peak, Kaká's explosive pace and ability to drive past defenders with the ball were defining characteristics of his game. This rating is notably lower than that of his AC Milan teammate Andriy Shevchenko (112 OVR, 180 Speed) in the same event, creating an unjustifiable disparity between two legendary players of similar overall caliber.
Therefore, I respectfully urge you to consider the following adjustments to make this special card a more authentic representation of the iconic Brazilian midfielder:
- Upgrade his Weak Foot rating from 4 to 5.
- Increase his maximum Speed stat to a more appropriate level, reflective of his real-world prowess.
Implementing these changes would not only honor Kaká's legacy more accurately but also ensure greater consistency within the game's player database. Thank you for your time and consideration.
Sincerely,
A dedicated FC Mobile fan
All valid points. Just another instance where EA hasn’t done its homework. Honestly, I think there are far bigger fish to fry than correcting a single player’s attributes, but the symptom in this case reflects the same patterns we all see—failure to respect the sport and failure to attend to details and get the game right. You can learn a lot about a company’s culture by the quality of their product and the quality of their customer service, and, in this instance, both are really poor. My guess is that it’s an absolutely miserable culture within the company as well. We see a steady stream of slipshod product that is rushed out without adequate quality control and we see the public-facing side of the company constantly gaslighting the community of users with empty promises about “listening to us.”
Hey, EA, if you have to keep saying it you’re probably not actually DOING IT!
