Quick Pitch = R2

@JoeTheGamePlayer said in Quick Pitch = R2:
Quick pitching might be the most cheesy part about playing online. It's a baseball video game, not a basketball video game. Whenever I play a guy who brings this cheese, I will hit R2, step out of the box or pause the game repeatedly to slow things down.
Some people only have so much time to play and wanna get as many games in as they can. I’m fine with either way, you have to adjust. Past or present doesn't matter, this has always been done by some in the MLB. Holding R2 is very stinky cheese man lol

If someone is NOT quick pitching, why would someone pause the game repeatedly, sometimes for a second or two or some for a minute and a half after every batter?

I know if im not familiar with a batter i will check the quirks see if he's a "first pitch hitter" or good w/ breaking balls etc, i imagine on the other side you get a quick menu pause every few batters sorry about it guys i need to know THE QUIRKS. EDIT it also shows your batting average so i know to pitch around a guy or not.

If there's a runner on with speed, what am I supposed to do?
I like how they all moved right past your question lol.....Cmon man, Obviously you’re supposed to just let them steal 2nd & 3rd otherwise YOU’RE CHEESE!!!!

Should we message people between each pitch and make sure they are ready?

Holding R2 is way more cheesy then quick pitching, great post!
How is throwing pitches 2-3 seconds apart anything like real baseball?
You make a good point. I like to eat sunflower seeds, scratch my [censored], and look at my wife for signs in between pitches because that's baseball. God forbid a video game play like a video game.
The only time quick pitching was actually an issue was back in 17 when you could quick pitch to the opposing pitcher and steal a strike before they could pinch hit. That issue has been solved, so people can pitch as quickly to me as they want. I got [censored] to do.

Nothing wrong with quick pitch it a runner is on base.

It’s a video game. I don’t have time to play a 3 and a half hour game because that’s how long a ‘’real baseball’’ game lasts.

Come on man. I wasn't talking about a real-time nine-inning MLB game. But after I swing at a pitch, the next one shouldn't be coming at me before I'm back in my batting stance.

It screws control up big time. Let them quick pitch and take your walk or homerun
Right? Do people not realize this? No one should ever “quick pitch”. Only a strategic slide step, in which case you should be throwing a fastball out of the strike zone.

The Quick Pitching complainers and the "Throw only strikes (strike-only)" complainers are one and the same!
There's a throw strikes only movement? I seriously didn't know about this lol...some people

For me R2 is the only way to check on pitches and location as i turned off the Feedback

What does R2 do?

What’s the point in taking your time? Just makes the game go longer.
It's a baseball game. What's your rush?
Finally! Someone said it. Baseball is more like chess than checkers.
I'm not a fan of "pace of play" rules in MLB. When I go to the ballpark I want to stay all day!

The same dudes that quick pitch are the ones that repeatedly pause when you take a lead.

I dont think they're saying no slide step. I believe hes just referring to guys that are throwing a sequence of pitches as fast as the game allows.

Balks being turned on would solve this issue

If you like to quick pitch dont get mad at guys that like to hold r2. It's that simple.
