In the case that you are playing on the same keyboard, is there an optimal way to set up your controls so you dont suffer from too many buttons pressed at once problem?

Eh, get a n-key rollover keyboard? Your only real chance at getting any real play on a keyboard, especially with two players.

EDIT: I mean, even if one player blocks, another player does 6A, that's already 3 keys pressed. Some keyboards can't even handle that, depending on where those keys are. You can't really play if you don't know whether your buttons are working.

This will probably sound stupid, but in the case of a laptop, would connecting an external keyboard help? As in, a keyboard per player.

Sure, that would work. Just have to be careful not to hit each other's keys.

EDIT: Hahaha, everyone should make a Madscientist style stick as a badge of poverty.

It's very unconfortable to share a keyboard with another person. Come on, just get another keyboard, it's really cheap, and you solve both these problems.

It's cheaper to get a gamepad. Seriously.

usually i would just use another keyboard. just wondering, since there are situations where i cant use another keyboard (e.g. school). This problem was solved via local netplay though. Thanks for the input though.

Suddenly i got reminded of playing original Gauntlet in 1 keyboard... 4 kids squeezing onto 1 keyboard... Those were the days.
