It's kind of like figuring out a Fatality move in a Mortal Kombat game. That's a good example of the ghosting problem interfering with a game. The Witcher 3 - the spell would not get cast. So if I were running forward and to the left and pressed Q to cast a spell in say. I also just tried W+A+Q and that doesn't work either. You wouldn't normally press W and S together in an FPS or other game that uses WASD for movement, as that's going forward and backward at the same time while also moving right - but you might press all of those keys on occasion unintentionally but meaning for the last key to actually do something. ![]() If I press and hold down SHIFT and then press W, D simultaneously then also press S, the S is ignored. I just tested some keypresses to try to repro a ghosting issue and I found one on my keyboard. So the symptoms are not always identifiable when they happen, particularly because one's attention is kept pretty busy in the game. If you hit just the right combination of keys on your specific keyboard which do not all independently register then one or more of the things you were trying to tell the game to do might not register, so that one spell might not cast, or you might not run, or you might not move to the right, but a fraction of a second later you're pressing different keys and if something went wrong you might not notice at all, or you might think "shit, I swear I cast that spell." The symptom might be playing an intense ARPG and trying to cast several spells while dancing all over the keys possibly while holding one or two modifiers down, or similar in an FPS. Most people don't normally notice the problem because it only occurs when you press multiple keys at the same time that are normally never pressed at the same time and expect them to all register with the software being used, which is not something people usually do except in video games, and in games it isn't something that one would often notice either. Is there a list somewhere of keyboards where this issue isn't present at all? Yup, just about everyone reading this who hasn't purposefully bought a keyboard knowingly that is designed specifically to not exhibit this problem is almost certainly using a keyboard that does exhibit this problem. in what game, doing what? As said, I don't recall realizing ever that some key isn't working while I am playing, or then I have a high treshold for things like that. How do people normally notice this problem, ie. Interestingly the Logitech wireless keyboard seemed to get the best result (missing D F U)? I was expecting it to be the worst in this regard. :) Here are my results for three different keyboards: ![]() Timppu: I got exactly the same with my Dell keyboard. ![]()
