Receiver symbols question

Is there a way to pull up the symbols of receivers when they are way down field, like when you're scrambling? Sometimes I will see a receiver wide open but don't know which one he is is so i just end up guessing, sometimes right sometimes wrong.

The further back you are from the LOS, the more faint the receiving icons are. This is by design in the game. You need to not be dropped back so far if you want to see your receivers' icons.

This is correct. I think this was a good addition to the game.

Re: Receiver symbols question

Yeah I think this is a good addition. They needed to do something to make passing downfield after being so far behind the LOS more difficult.

I think this sort of correlates to depth perception in real life.

Re: Receiver symbols question

What button throws the ball away (PS3) ? I never seem to find it when I am scrambling.

Re: Receiver symbols question

Thanks for the answers. I am trying to beat Oklahoma with Houston on Heisman (no sliders), some plays it takes longer for guys to get separation than others. I agree, it is a good addition to the game.
