Anyone else celebrating Hawkins being removed?
I’m partying like crazy. Particularly my Hillbilly side.

no, it such an amazing map, and the best indoor map, the only killer that truly has a hard time on it is blight
11 -
no because it should have been hawkins and Haddonfield

I would be happier if it was RPD instead

Laughs in Hillbilly

The end of Hawkins here is a great reminder that every cloud has a silver lining.

Why is it being removed?
0 -
Nah. You know I can easily live without Spirit and everything released after her, but Hawkins was tolerable for the most part.
1 -
oof forgot about him, havent seen him in since tricksters release
0 -
I'd be sad to see any map go. That includes this one.
12 -
Never liked it as survivor. My Dweet says good riddance.
But I main Mikey as killer and its one of my favorite maps for scratched mirror and low terror radius builds with monitor/dead rabbit. So I'll miss it for that.

It was not my favorite map but i still liked it. I would always prefer Hawkins over Hadonfield and RPD.

No, it's my favourite in door map. Plus, this could be the beginning of a bad precedence.

There goes easy adept, glad i already got it all

They havent said why as far as im aware, but basically all Stranger Things content will become unavailable for purchase (aka removed permanently) on Nov of this year.
If you already have the stuff or buy it before, you will keep them, the map is the one thing that will be gone for good with no way of playing it again.
The content will go on discount until its removal, so if you want anything, get it now.
My guess is that they decided to not renew the license of the franchise.

I don't really care about map balance. This was one of the scariest and best looking maps in the game for me.

Losing content would make me sad no matter what the content was
5 -
No i'm really gonna miss this map.
1 -
It's been my favorite inside map since it was released, I'm going to be very sad to see it go. Not a huge fan of indoor maps but Hawkins was always a better thing to see than the other indoors.
Regardless, losing content forever is objectively bad imo
6 -
Yeah, just ######### Hawkins and can't wait to never see it again.
We still have RPD and Lerys as super claustrophobic, but i would much rather get The Game and Midwich over Hawkins since they're at least a bit more open.

Hawkins is gone! (in November) 🦀 🦀 🦀

The Hawkins map is game content. I don't understand why I should celebrate game content being taken away. I personally very much love that map, it's one of my top few favorites as survivor AND killer. Losing it only makes the game worse for me, and for other people who feel the same, and taking joy in that fact is a pretty ######### thing to do.
There are maps, killers and other things in this game that I don't like but I'm not so selfish as to think that they should be removed just to please ME, nor would I go openly "celebrate" (ie mock and rub it in the faces) of those who enjoy that content.

Not feeling especially celebratory, no

I loved it thematically, even if the gameplay can be shoddy at times. The atmosphere was perfect for DBD and it's a shame it has to go away before it could've been reworked gameplay wise.
0 -
I'm so glad that map will be gone! It is the worse map for survivors hands down.
0 -
something being permanently removed is nothing i'd start celebrating over.
especially not since it shows us that nothing of the licensed things we have are actually safe - if the license holders just suddenly decide that they dont like DbD anymore, we could just lose a lot of content out of nowhere.
2 -
No, I actually enjoyed this map as both Killer and Survivor. Was great as Ghostface, Pig and Scratch Mirror Myers, which were my fav ways to play DBD
1 -
Losing game content should NEVER be celebrated. Now it's something you don't like, but in the future it may not.
8 -
Nope.
It's one less map in the game (and we haven't been getting many maps recently. plus a lot of maps keep getting disabled.) and I quite liked the aesthetic. It could be a fun map, and I have some fond memories playing there. It was by no means my favorite map, and it was terribly balanced. But it had charm to it that I quite liked.
2 -
Right. I think that players who are happy about this are not looking at the objective, longterm ramifications of what this could mean for the game.
4 -
I'm sad we are losing an unique map and keeping Mcmillam, Autohaven and Coldwind's 50 variations.

I’m aware it means further licenses are in question but tell me have you ever seen a good designed licensed map? This opens up the chance for the devs to add a map that’s original and actually well designed.
0 -
OG version of The Game was well designed, at least in my opinion.
0 -
I don't like that they're taking something out of the game, but I hate that map just enough to not mind
2 -
I don't like the map but I agree with you. However, I don't think anyone is mocking the ones who love the map. We are free to like/dislike it, to celebrate its disappearance/to be sad it'll be gone for good.
1 -
I think it's dumb, why are we keeping the characters but not the map. It's one of the few original looking maps in game. Most of the maps are just different variations of same tiles.
0 -
Hell yeah.
Bye Hawkins. Don't let the doors hit ya ass.
2 -
No.
The only map removal worthy of celebration would be Raccoon City.
0 -
Just because you don't like it doesn't mean others feel the same way.
So I think it's kind of weird how it's a moment to "celebrate". Imagine if they further nerfed Hillbilly, I'm sure you would think those people celebrating seem cringe too, no?

This is a [BAD WORD] thing to make a whole thread about, dude. You don't have to be disappointed like some of us

I am of course fine with you having your own opinion on anything in this game, that much doesn't concern me. I understand that some people hate the map and that's perfectly okay, that is everyone's right.
What concerns me is the bigger picture, the fact this his happening at all. Things being taken away from players of this game - while of course not the end of the world - is not a practice that we, as players, should be encouraging. How we feel has no bearing and I understand that, this is obviously a legal issue. But what I'm saying is that a game's available, properly functioning content being reduced - not expanded - is not something that we, as players, should ever encourage.
Again, I honestly DO understand those who hate the map, even if I myself don't. There are maps I don't like too. And as stated, I also very much understand that this is a legal / contractual issue and that it's not something in our control. I'm just saying that in my opinion, joy and satisfaction is generally not the sentiment that should be expressed to the developers when they take something away.

Right next to Haddonfield and Badham super survivor maps. Hawkins with unsafe pallets galore and neutered killer powers.(Same with current game). Midwich with it’s hard navigation and camping potential. And RPD with it’s everything
0 -
Except Hillbilly is balanced and suffers little balance issues. Hawkins has a plethora of balance issues
0 -
What's so great about losing game content? You'll eventually miss the map, especially since it's removal makes RCPD even more common.
1 -
I honestly really liked the map. Pretty upset that it's going to be removed but oh well.
1 -
Well guess what dude I’m not saying it’s a problem that others like this map. Me and others really disliked this map in my opinion it was poorly designed. And simply we’re celebrating it’s gone. So way to be a douche by not saying we shouldn’t be happy about something.
0 -
Well guess what it also increases the chance for maps I enjoy like MacMillan and Coldwind. Which is 10-1 and removes a map that would be a certain L by eliminating the usefulness of certain killer powers
0 -
I don't dislike any map we have. The more the better. They just require different play the same as different killers do.
1 -
it was the best map to play as for killer.
this sucks
1 -
One less bad map to play on I could not stand to play killer or survivor on it
