    I can't understand why you wouldn't want the pitcher quick pitching when you're batting. Let's get this 9 inning game done as fast as possible.

    The only reason I can imagine why you would want the pitcher coming set before starting his windup is that you think his placement won't be as good. The only way you could think that, is if you struggle with placement and I'd bet money that you quick pitch more than you don't.

    I use stride analog input. I need him to come set in order to stride.

    @chuckclc_psn said in You R2 holders:

    I dont remember what I said in this thread earlier, but R2 cheesing is completely gone now! I just played some BR tonight, and every time my opponent held R2 a symbol came up. And, at least with PP, it is easy to just do nothing until it goes away. Glad they finally got rid of the R2 cheese.

    The problem is, if I am selecting my pitch when my opponent starts to hold R2, sometimes I cannot step off and wait until he lets go. I am locked into the pitch and all I can do is move the location and hope to not hang it. I am still using analog so maybe that it part of the problem...

    It still wreaks havoc.

    The holding R2 players are toxic they also bunt cheese right after holding and look like they are having a seizure at the plate. Check swing everything whatever than can do to win because this game is so important to them 😂😂😂😆😆😆

    I don’t want to play 90 minute games. If you hold r2 every at bat, you’re a douche. Idgaf try to argue it, if you can’t bat that’s not my fault.
    I don’t quick pitch ever, [censored] messes your accuracy up. People aren’t able to adjust so they hold R2 and bunt dance like idiots

    You guys that are holding R2 the entire time your opponent is trying to pitch are really a special kind of bad person.

    Maybe learn how to win a game without cheating? You might find it actually feels good.

    I hold it every time and will continue to do so. I am not going to let you quick pitch me. If you want to get rid of holding R2, I would be perfectly fine with a 5 sec timer in between pitches. Until that happens, you should try and understand why people do it.

    Why do u need 5 seconds in between pitches. Do u need to loosen your thumb or catch your breath. Its not like u are actually swinging. Quick pitching is no where near the problem that R2 holders are. And if they're doing it from the beginning it has nothing to do with your pitching.

    If you try to play a game without quick pitching see if R2 is still a problem? But i agree if you quick pitch i'm holding R2 all day long. Then i'm going to take my sweet @ss time when i'm pitching.

    Why does this not surprise me about you. What do you need to do, go through mental computations before the pitch?

    That is the worst chirp of all time. Absolutely brutal. Nothing personal, just saying...

    I don’t understand the hate with pitching fast. It’s not like you have to step out of the box, readjust your jock, reattach your gloves. What’s the deal?

    If you are doing it from first pitch then you are a child, the end.

    This guy is an absolute loser lol

    I always find it amusing the way people talk differently than face to face.

    Dude I will call you a loser to your face lol. You act like im trying to fight you or something smh. what you do is scummy. plain and simple.

    Really, I travel a lot, where do you live? We can meet up and have a conversation to find out.

    This guy is such a clown lol Guys like you deserve a punch to the face lol, I'm nobody has time to play a game that takes twice as long, go play the CPU if you don't want to get quick pitched, I actually think its easier to hit while getting quick pitched

    Maybe worst chirp of all time but still effective. I wanted to say worse but don't want to get banned.

    Do you understand there are strategic tools that can be used prior to pitching? Fast pitching does not allow me to use the tools at my expense like R3 to see where fielding is setup? But quick pitching you get to see where i placed my pci? And for those that use stride batter does not get set back up in time.

    5 second timer between pitches seems a bit excessive. Also not everyone wants to sit there and take over an hour for a game so try to understand why people try not to take long between pitches? You can't ask people to try and understand your side without extending the same courtesy

    Then live with R2 holding. I’m not going to let someone throw 10 pitches in 3 seconds like it’s a machine gun. If you don’t want a timer, R2 is the best way to make both sides happy.

    How does holding down R2 / RT (on xbox) keep them from fast pitching? I don't get it....

    Yeah, I want to move the game along. I want the pitcher to get the ball and pitch to me as well.

    You’re absolutely toxic on every level.

    They can't go into windup as fast. Quick pitching is the problem not R2 majority of players that R2 Is b/c quick pitching is the cheating method R2 is the preventer. People are trying to flip it around and blame R2. It's simple if they don't quick pitch i don't hold R2.
