Deception Cooldown

Hello, dear dev team and community!

Just here to give a small bit of feedback about the new change to deception, which creates an about 1 second long window after using the perk in which you can not interact with lockers. I think this is not necessary and should be reduced to about 0.2 seconds, just so spamming space wont screw you over and leave it at that, because otherwise i dont see this perk being useful anymore since you can't prorperly combo it with head on at places like the shack anymore.

Thanks for listening!

    I didn't know that was the case, but great information and a very valid point! Hopefully they'll consider your proposed change.

    Or they can just make the perk activate with E like many many many many - literally all other perks with special effects to activate. It is not a real vault so there is no need to be on space/by default/. Basically what they have done now is they saw the perk being reported as bugged because people where entering in the lockers by mistake when wanted to activate it and since everyone knows how good the devs are at fixing things they did something to not allow to enter lockers. Problem is they made that effect to last for so long that it affected the perk in really negative way where u cant enter in a locker for A WHILE after which was the the one of the main usage of that perk rn. Currently the perk is just garbage because of that and I am not sure if the devs are aware and I am also really pissed because I bought the new survivor just because of that perk /similar to how RepostRiposte feels/

    all lockers. if you run shack with head on and deception the first locker, you want to be able to immediately enter the other one with quick and quiet, but you can't, so the killer has time to come in and see that you're in the second locker, defeating the purpose of deception in that use case.

    I've yet to see this perk used in a chase when I don't still have LOS on the survivor or at the very least can see their foot running round a corner. Nerfing it seems weird as it doesn't seem particularly strong. Then again they nerfed Coup de grace.
