Has anyone seen a ball possession indicator on the new scoreboard in Madden 12?

For whatever reason I'm not seeing it in any of these screens and have yet to see it in the demo or any Madden 12 videos.

Didn't notice that. Not like it makes a difference since your calling the plays and can obviously tell if you have who has the ball.

If you need to look at the scoreboard to see who has the ball, you probably are going to struggle in this game.

The yellow arrow is the ball indicator, right next to the yard line

If it's pointing up then it's you are on offense.
If it's pointing down then you are on defense.

that said, i agree with jake44 lol
ALTHOUGH when a fumble recovery takes place you always wanna know who got the ball ASAP and the yellow arrow will give you that info.

The arrow is where you are on the field...haven't crossed midfield the arrow is down...pass the 50 the arrow is up...

what he meant is that when the possession changes that arrow would also happen to change

It has nothing to do with that, I can definitely hold my own in this game. In past Madden games they have always had some kind of a possession indicator so it just caught my attention when I didn't see one. In real life they always have one and I figured especially since they worked with CBS and Troica this year on presentation that they would have one this year for sure.

It's not a big deal I just wanted to see if maybe it was there and I just wasn't seeing it.
