90% Of Players Who Use DH Now Are Hackers

Its absolutely terrible. I've tried using while unhooking, I've tried using it against a chainsaw and I've even tried timing it near windows. Its absolute trash. They gotta have auto dead hard to even use it. Bump it to 1 second and get rid of the hackers. Going back to SB. Tired of wasting that perk slot to always get hit no matter when I use it unless the killer does a super easy lunge. They literally just hold their lunge until it runs out. Hell, even I do it as killer unless its an auto dead harder and you can tell now.

    While you're pulling numbers out of the air, i will admit I have seen a scarily high amount of auto dead hard cheaters. I've started just swinging at pallets now before kicking them to trigger the auto dead hard on the other side to put them into a cooldown.

    Should I say about 90% of the people that I go against use auto dead hard? Also, once someone knows you know, they can push a button and disable that cheat to make it look like you're crazy. Subtle hackers are the best in this game. I'm at the point where I'm sick of playing this game because of bullshit like this. Are they cheating? Are they just REALLY good? Who knows but your sanity and mental health doesn't matter in this game. "People can play how they want to play so stop being a hater". That's what I got in endgame chat from an auto dead harder.

    Was almost the case before it was changed as well, so many survivors being able to react to a normal m1 without looking at you.

    But I'll agree that the ratio has definitely increased.

    With that said though, I am actually using it more than the old one. My success with using it is a bit mixed though, it works wonders against less experienced killers that swing quickly when you spin into them and activate it.

    The amount of subtle hackers you face in this game has pretty much made it so I barely touch killer anymore.

    Even as survivor I see way more survivors cheating compared to killers. DBD is turning into a game of wondering what is legit and what is not.

    Did not play for two months and the second game back I had a super obvious cheater and their friends torturing a killer, after making it so that I instantly died on first hook.

    I'm getting real tired of questioning my own sanity every match because something I can't explain happens. People running faster than usual, insta heals, faster gen speeds, auto Dead Hard etc. are incredibly hard to catch but have a huge impact. Also you gotta love how cheaters react when you trigger their auto Dead Hard behind pallets. It's hilarious until they decide to hold you hostage.

    The amount of cheaters is just tilting. I'm questioning myself a lot lately when I'm like "how? are they cheating? what?" because blatant cheaters in my lobbies are common enough,so subtle cheaters are also probably slipping by,there are few that I catch and notice though.

    Come on, it's not 90%. 50%, maybe, lol.

    Honestly, we really only remember the egregious ones, but these days you do see an awful lot of potato survs who seem to have inexplicably amazing timing with DH.

    Funny, that.

    This guys. If you suspect, swing early to trigger it.


    Other than that, the perk isint trash, you need to know timings, and every situation except when the killer waits and is smelling your hair, it can totally work.

    How can you be so sure? I sucked with the old DH hitting objects and trees like George of the Jungle.With this new one not saying im the best but I do use it quite well.With that said it doesn't give me any distance so if the killer keeps coming for me he'll win.

    I've experienced a lot of survivors perfectly using dead hard when I'm smelling their necks. Totally strange, honestly.

    Not even with the old DH the survivors were that perfect.

    It's pretty obvious when they're hacking in my opinion. I had a game where it was 4 survivors all with dead hard that would hit it perfectly every time. This was before I knew about purposefully missing to get them to trigger it, but yeah that game was beyond annoying.

    True but 50% isn't as attention-grabbing as 90%, though lol.
