Running and talking

[Danish]

So I've seen people talk while running in game, but whenever I do it my mic wont activate. I can only walk and talk. Any clue why?

What is your push to talk key?

What is your push to talk key?

caps lock.

caps lock.

Pretty sure it interferes with running, do you have any mouse buttons? I use Mouse Button 4 and it doesn't affect me.

I am experiencing this issue. came to find out it has to do with your keyboard depending on your keyboard you can use caps lock while running im still working on a substitute for it though but if you have a different keyboard try using it see if it works

It's a HP classic keyboard. It's not the best, but I've been using it since childhood, so it's the only keyboard I'm used to.

"Ghosting" is the problem that some keyboard keys don't work when multiple keys are pressed simultaneously.

yea that s the issue , on some keyboards if you press more buttons at the same time some of them may not work.

There's your answer, might also be why you crash so much xd.

My advice is to get a better keyboard such as Corsair or go stereotypical and get a razor..

Other people answered already what I was along the same lines:
You need a keyboard that has Key Rollover. 

Cheaper or basic keyboards hit a limit how many keys can be pressed at the same time, or used shared 'channels' (for a lack of a better term) to register keystrokes so SOME combinations cant be used. Like shift and capslock, as the keyboard makers of cheaper keyboards assume no one will hold them both at the same time to type.
