Default Jumps... they're really starting to piss me off.

I've just about had it with jumps. I only hit 40% of them with 2P. I usually get a Perfect then a good. Why is this happening? I'm hitting the arrow keys at EXACTLY the same time. I've even tested this with every finger on both hands and both hands together. But no matter what the combo always goes 1+2, 1+2, 1+2, Not just 2! What do I have to do to hit them!!! O.O!!!

I've read multiple thread saying "Just practice them more" But i have! I've spammed the same songs over and over again in the past and present. But I ALWAYS hit at least 2 goods a song if it has jumps.

Please... I need some official advice. Not just some slander from a random person. Please don't post here if you don't know what your talking about.

BTW I play One Handed (Three Fingers) If you didn't already know.

Is it a certain type of jump? If so, then it sounds like maybe an arrow key is slightly busted? Have you tried alternate setups?

I find that {Losing Touch} is quite easy. I just got 68 goods on my first time playing it in about 3 weeks. It's the spontaneous Jumps that I hate. Like in Spontaneous hydroxide. The LOW BPM songs...


And I'm not switching to spread....

If you got 68 goods on {Losing Touch}, you should not be considering it easy. <.<

It may actually be a keyboard fault. Some keyboards will not register opposite arrow keys simultaneously, for whatever reason.

I play one handed 3 fingered too, I have absolutely no problem. I LOVE jumps, but maybe your keyboard is acting up.

I think that may be it. I'll try plugging in a different keyboard. Although they all suck o.o XD

Are you using a wireless keyboard?
I was getting 95-120 goods on STV with it, but I can SDG it with this wired one. <.<

wireless keyboards = the suck

that's your problem right there.
i went from average rank 6,000 to 1,400 by making the switch.
wireless = TERRIBLE on FFR, especially for jumps.
use a wired one, and you should vastly improve.

This is a minor keyboard fault compared to what I'm having. Try having every note slightly delayed to where FFR considers it a jack, resulting in a average on the second note, miss on the first, and a boo for the extra tap. This happens to me with every song I play, and I've gone through whole songs with 8 avg-8 miss-8 boos, the worst I've gotten being 27 avg-27 miss-27 boos. *rolls his eyes* Right, like I can do that on purpose. I should be the king of skill tokens!

I hate Kagami.

Mostly because I play ITG a lot and I'm expecting the steps from the official stepchart, but then they don't come and I get owned.

Also, give spread more time. >:
