watch out for H0M3R 08 online he pulls the plug when you're pitching

me and a friend were playing online switching off innings and we played this H0M3R 08 thats a zero not an o, but he was the giants and it was my friends inning and he filled up the meter and right as it got full the other guy pulled the plug then put it back in so it lagged and made him miss his accuracy. so it ended up as a high inside mistake pitch to dowd. in the next inning the guy still tried to pull the plug when i pitched but i was able to hit the accuracy still alot and when i didn't it was a ball. watch out for that guy though that really pissed me off

(yea sorry about the crappy english but i don't feel like fixing it now)

I can't believe you posted this. I played this tool a few days ago and the same thing happened to me. I thought at the time he was doing something to cause it because it happened every pitch and didn't start happening until the last inning when I had a lead. He claimed it happened when he was pitching as well but I saw no such lag when I was at the plate. I won the game anyway since the guy sucks but it was truly annoying. Had to just groove a few pitches. What makes it even worse was that when the game started he said "Let's play all strikes" meaning not to throw any balls. I hate this guy.

I haven't played MVP yet online but I don't think he was pulling the plug, if he pulled it the game would lose connection, what your describing sounds like the standby glitch (person hits standby on their modem and it will cause it to lag for a second) thats a problem in a lot of XBL First Person Shooters.

no he pulls the cord from the network adapter then puts it right back in and it freezes for a second then starts going again. people did the same thing in madden with field goals.

Re: watch out for H0M3R 08 online he pulls the plug when you're pitching

How does he have time to pull the plug, then put it back it and grab his controller, read the pitch and then swing?? The standby glitch that was mentioned sounds more reasonable to me. Of course, I have no CLUE as far as this stuff is concenred, as I only use XBOX Live for the roster updates. Either way this guy sounds like a dick, I just don't understand how he would have time to do all that...

it doesn't start back up right away it freezes for a second then will start back up like 2 seconds after you put the plug back in plus he could have more than just him there too

You can even buy devices that plug into your cord and all you have to do is hit a button and it acts as if your pulling your plug then hit it again to reconnect...Pretty sad...Someone from Socom came up with the idea...

Re: watch out for H0M3R 08 online he pulls the plug when you're pitching

A guy named sicksniper did it to me yesterday. The funny thing is he still couldn't get a hit. Finally in the bottom of the 5th he parked a fat pitch to win 1-0.

I'm assuming this is the same thing people are doing in Halo 2....Why in the world would you go to all this trouble to play a videogame? It's not like the rankings actually mean anything in the lobbies....Frankly it is just sad.
