    Triple arrow key fail?

    I don't know if this has to do with my computer or FFR, but for some reason when I play a song like Big Blue, whenever I reach a point in which I have to press say, the UP, LEFT, and RIGHT arrow key at the same time, it doesn't register that I hit them at all, but if I hit them separately, it works fine. I know it's not my fingers failing (I use one hand, off topic), because I remember when I was playing BB Evolution, one of my favorites, I pressed a triple key combo before the song started, and nothing happened, no "BOO" or "MISS" or anything, it didn't register at all. I can haz help from Sprite, or anybody who knows what the problem is?

    Some keyboards can't hit three or more keys at once in certain combinations (such as the one you mentioned). If you want to do a song like that you need to hit them separately for worse accuracy or, what I would recommend doing, is switching the keys you use to something that can hit four keys at once if you have to.

      Ninja'd by alloyus. What he recommends is actually what should be done, don't start hitting them separately. xP

        Alright, thanks. It's good to know it's not FFR screwing with me.

            It varies from keyboard to keyboard, but if you're looking for keys in a row I know one thing I used to use was (m , . /), could always try that.

                I had the same problem with my keboard at home as well. Then I started playing harder and hardeer songs then realized that playing with the arrows will make the songs I play way more difficult. I had to change my default keys and get used to it(still am, sorta). I use askl. It's getting less and less wierd, and songs that I saw as impossible I can FC

                  Use the keyboard thing at the top to figure out which keys work.

                      I used to have this same problem in other games, but I've recently noticed that when I switched to a new keyboard (nothing special just bought it in the store) I'm able to do it. It really depends on the keyboard.

                        I've never seen this before pretty cool. I used to just check mine with stepmania in the test input. But this is more convenient XD

                          Lol, I can press 3 keys at a time, no problem. (With any key combination) I can't press 4 however. ;/ I used that anti-ghosting FAQ, and the keyboard at the top to try to find a combination that worked, and apparently, none of them do. Guess I'll probably have to buy a new keyboard or something to get it to work. xD

                            Partially why i switched to spread.

                            The arrows could only hit [124]s, no other combo of hands would work for me, now i can hit any combo as56

                              Your using arrow keys right? Keyboards weren't designed for u to hit 3 arrow keys at once. I suggest switching to WASD or using a spread setup. Tell me if it works
