Am I crazy? (Playcall screen)

I noticed this in the demo last night. If you pick a play using "Play Type" in 09 it used to show the formation in the lower left of the formation layout screen but now its blank and there is no way to easily tell what formation you are in...unless I'm missing something....

Anyone else notice this?

Well you can always look at the diagram to see what formation your in? I mean it sounds like you can't tell or that's not easy for you, but i'm sure it'll be easy to get used to.

It may be easy to get used to but I don't see why they took something as simple and helpful as that out.

Not sure I follow... you select Play Type, then choose the type (for instance Inside Handoff) and you are brought to all the plays of that type. Select any play and it will show you the formation with its name at the top of the window.

I'll check it again in a little bit when I get off work, but I'm pretty sure formation isn't shown anywhere. Package is...not formation. Maybe I'm just blind or stupid, or both.

Hard as heck to find screens of what I'm trying to say, will post pics later.

Oh, I see now. You're right.. the formation name isn't shown. Just a diagram.

I noticed this too. Not anything to scream about, but one of those little annoyances. Why change it?
