Bring Dead Hard Back
Comment below if you want it back.
Bring it back. The game isn't fun anymore. Killers way to OP. Play the game at 100ping or 200 ping and try to time dead hard. The perk was fine killers just had to learn to wait 1 second. But they couldn't. Now its completely unusable at the Australian average ping.
What people forget is it didn't always work to begin with.
Edit: I am super surprised by the comments. I have some questions:
1) Do any of you 'main' survivor?
2) Are you killer mains?
3) Does anyone here play at greater then 60 ping?
4) Does anyone here think the new dead hard is a good perk?
5) Does anyone here find the new and improved dead hard works for them and its the best perk ever?
6) What would you do to change it?

I will comment but not because I want it back. It shouldn't come back. The only thing that should come back because it seems to be missing is it's validation.

Baiting Dead Hard out, whilst annoying, was not the main reason it was a vastly frustrating perk to go against - it was it being used for distance, which the killer could not do anything about (in most killer's cases anyway). So no, in my opinion it was not fine - it was used on basically all 4 survivors every match for a reason, and that reason was it was too strong and had very little counter play when it was used for distance.
I do empathise with you having no nearby servers to get as decent ping though, that must be frustrating - but that's not a reason to bring old Dead Hard back.

Definitely not, the old version was significantly overpowered and overused. This new version seems to be in a good spot, it’s still used but not nearly as much and still gets value when people have good timing with it. It’s both a decent perk for the survivors who like it and killers like myself find it less annoying.
Really the only issue I can think of with Dead Hard is the auto-Dead Hard hack is still a thing. I wish the devs could figure out a way to eliminate that. (Not that I blame them, I have no idea how they could. I just wish they could do it.)

Why would you want a perk back that "killers could just wait 1 second" to counter?

Current Dead Hard is an improvement honestly.

I have PTSD from all the times I had to deal with Dead Hard for distance, never again.

Just no.
Now we have great variety in the game. I can see SB, Overcome, Lithe and even Smash Hit players now.
Before, it was Deadhard-only.

Dead Hard is great the way it is right now, learn to use it and you'll learn to love it again honestly.

The amount of times playing as killer where I made a good play to get a survivor in a spot where I could get a hit only be robbed by E! There were too many times where a killer just couldn't just wait it out.
Not to mention the times where they used it for distance and made the chase last another 10 or more seconds.
I'm glad old Dead Hard is gone.
Maybe they could add a dash perk to the game and reproduce old Dead Hard's results by filling 2 perk slots, that could be fun.

- Don't know/no
- Don't know/yes
- Don't know/I don't
- Yes
- It works, but it's not the best Perk ever, but still the best Exhaustion Perk
- Nothing, it's fine

We do not want that horribly overpowered perk to return to what it was, its perfectly fine right now

- I play both roles, currently spamming survivor so I get better at great skillchecks for the new Rebecca perk
- no, 50/50 player
- no
- I think it is still a good perk, if you can pull it off it is really good but now you actually need skill; kinda too ping dependent
- this is a dumb question; no perk should ever be "the best perk ever", old DH was "the best perk ever" which is why it got reworked; it was a balancing nightmare and objectively just the best perk that any survivor could use; also it clearly isnt an improvement, it is a nerf, nobody ever claimed it was a buff other than clickbait youtubers
- nothing, it can stay as it is
If you hate new DH this much and cant use it because of high ping here are some suggestions:
- dont use it
- use other exhaustion perks
- lithe exists
- sprintburst exists
- learn how to loop without dead hard
dead hard is gone, it wont return, it is time to adapt and use the next thing that is really good. Metas change in any live service game.

Didn't old Dead hard I-frames only last for 0.5 seconds as well? Ping issue is the same if that is the case.
