RCPD map is....bad

I love the detail and effort they put into it but I just keep finding more reasons to hate it.

Just played a game where everytime I chased this one survivor she ran to a corner of the map where I guess she knew she couldn't get hooked from...like,,,, what??? Fix that #########.

Let her bleed out after the third time, ended up a 3k because her team came for her and I had noed. Not something I usually bring, but I only have a handful of perks on huntress and was just trying to do a challenge.

Anybody else dislike the map?

  • Everyone agrees RPD the worst map in the game to play, yet visually very good. This is the only map I get as killer I just afk or guide the survivors to gens to get the game over with since it's just terrible.

    Also map offerings for either Hawkins Lane or RPD I just close the game during loading screen and let the survivors sit back in que for another 10 min. The only exception is if I'm playing Trapper.

  • Good is not spelled bad.

  • It's an awful map. From an art point of view, it's visually great and they were so loyal to the original RE.


    From a gameplay perspective, it's completely broken. I can't think of any other maps that have so many dead zones for hooks so that if a survivor gets downed, they're most likely to wiggle out because the nearest hook is ages away. Even as a survivor I hate it, it's like a maze and takes forever to find a gen. It's really disorientating and despite playing on it quite a lot, I still can't get my head around it's layout. At least with other large maps (Mother's Dwelling) they're wide open so you can get a clear sense of location, RCPD is just unplayable - especially for people new to the game. It's the only map I genuinely hate.
