Why do people quit during the choosing pitcher screen on BR?
-
I feel like I am missing something. I get opponent found and then they seem to quit during the pitcher selection screen. I generally have go through that 5 or 6 times before someone actually wants to play. What am I missing that makes them quit. I am not that good too, for most people it would be an easy win.
-
They're testing to see if they are the home or away team. Lag in lineup screen: away; no lag: home. Most of the time.
-
I back out if the selection screen is laggy, because it usually indicates a poor connection. But that’s it.
-
Okay, why is that so important? Is it that much of advantage to be the home team? Does it saying something about our ranks. My rank sucks so you would like people would fall over themselves to play me.
I wish there was away to choose to be the away team so I can actually play then watch people quit out for 20 mins.

The home team is "supposed" to be the host in the P2P connection they use, and I'm guessing since the advent of the created stadium, people want to avoid them at all cost (unless it's their own, of course).

I am playing on the switch with cross play off. Fan made stadiums is not the issue.

I started this thread ten mins into trying to get a game going. It is now been 30 mins of people quitting out on me. Mini seasons in broken, haven’t gotten a new conquest map in two weeks and now this. The universe is telling me to play another game.

If it takes my opponent more than a few seconds to select their pitcher; I'll back out.

I never back out, but goodness gracious it takes some people forever to select a pitcher and fix their lineup when it comes to BR. Do they not realize they can set their lineup before they ever try to start a game?
-
I select as quickly as possible because I thought that might be what is going on.
I know I have good connection because I can run three different teleconference meetings at the same time with no lag.
Let’s face it I have been cursed!!!
-
If anyone was curious 40 mins and dozens of quit outs and I gave up.
-
If I hear someone "home hunting" I'm out otherwise if they just go into a game I'm good with that even if I'm visitor.

Can’t say that happens to me, I’m on PS5 with crossplay off, and just ran the BR program. I backed out a couple of times but that was it.
Very weird to hear. -

If you're just looking to play, send me a friend request.

That’s what I do…I was wondering why most games take a while to start…jeeesh

Most of the time I prefer to be away especially in events. Put up a couple runs in the first and so many people will quit before you even pitch

I will scroll up and down a couple times on the select pitcher screen (5 seconds) and if there is lag, I back out and try again until I get a lag free menu. I'm not always home team, but it prevents having to play laggy games. Trying to hit a 97+ mph fastball with lag is unbearable. It has nothing to do with matchups or my opponents skill... it's just a work around to not get stuck in a laggy game. SDS has terrible servers for H2H matches... so I do what I have to do to play a normal game.
