Ducky red switch help.

dpbadger · 7 Dec 2013 at 18:47

Can anyone help me? I have just got the ducky3 red switch keyboard and when I am playing games it doesn't seem to be registering key strokes. For example when running straight then moving diagonal then back straight again I have to repress the 'w' key to make it move. Have I got a setting wrong or am I meant to repress it. It is not just on the 'w' key either.

Also sometimes the key sticks and I carry on moving when I have taken my finger off.

mmm maybe it could be something to do with the server I am playing I will check further.

Did you find out the cause of the problems? How are you finding the keyboard? (looking for one for my son)

I think it was just the server for the game. I was playing it last night and it was fine. I do prefer it over my old keyboard it is a bit pricey but I think it is worth it. It is a luxury spending this much on a keybard but it does feel like it is built well.

I am just getting used to not having to press the key all the way down. I am not that bothered about the flashing led settings but suprisingy my wife who isn't techy at all loves the flashing reactive setting.

I own a corsair k70 and can't fault it at all. Depends on what kind of look you want I guess! Both the ducky and k70 come in a variety of switch colours I believe.
