IS DH bugged!?

I'm pressing E but DH aint coming out, i can't even DH for distance if i try to, it just doesn't come out. And no i did not change my input Bindings and i've even reset them just to make sure it's on E.

    DH for distance isn't a thing anymore

    They changed how Dead Hard works entirely with the last midchapter update.

    Yes DH is bugged, even after the animation starts there is roughly ~100 ms activation time during which it does nothing, the time is inconsistent and seem to depends on server latency. You won't be able to use it reactively at all against certain players. Even good loopers fail it quite regularly on stream.

    Judging by the comments i understand reading comprehension is at an all time low...


    Thanks, that explains how absurdly difficult it has been to properly time DH.

    Their are more effective perks to choose than DH even before the recent updates and changes. If the killer uses any perk that causes the survivor to be exhausted such as Fearmonger(which I am seeing a lot of these days) the perk is useless until the survivor is no longer exhausted. Even if the survivor is not exhausted it isn't that hard for an experience killer to overcome and still get the survivor.

    Well, you mentioned "Dead Hard for distance" so it makes sense people assumed you didn't know of the change to Dead Hard (removing the distance portion and instead giving you 0.5 seconds of Endurance).

    As for the "Yes it's bugged" comment, that's a troll. The perk works perfectly fine, to the point I'm seeing it more often than the other Exhaustion again. People just needed time to relearn how to use it.

    I did mention it but i wrote before and after those exact words. Those are the ones that provide the context. If you ignore those and just read DH for distance then you get to where i've said people are lacking reading comprehension. I'll just copy and paste my words: "i can't even DH for distance if i try to, it just doesn't come out". I did try to DH for Distance and even that didn't come out, that's exactly why i made the post. If i could DH for distance then i'd just outright say ok i'm not timming my DH correctly but the fact is even when i specifically tried to use it for Distance it didn't work either and it's not because it doesn't provide Distance anymore, it simply wasn't coming out.
