It was strange for me as well. But you quickly adapt to focusing on the formation area when you need to remember where people are in spite of their position on screen. It also is nice once you get used to it because you always know who is where on the screen regardless of their class.

One tip: If you want more than 3 people in melee range, don't put anyone in your front rank - put them in your flanks and center position and move your protected people to the back rank. If you remember to keep your back against a wall you won't get flanked so they can stay relatively safe back there and can still reach the front with extended weapons.
