I'll be blunt, I hate this map with a passion. I disconnect whenever I face it and am currently here typing this up due to a recent DC penalty because of it.

However, I'd like to know what others think of this map and if there's aspects of it I could learn to enjoy other than nostalgia for a game I've never even played.

    *the map is functional and I don't mind it


    I was going to add an additional "I despise it" option, but accidentally hitting a button to instantly post and having no way to edit the poll itself is a fun feature ain't it?

    It's far, far too big. Most of the other things people dislike really wouldn't be anywhere near as much of a problem if it weren't a gigantic sprawling maze you have to spend minutes even figuring out the path to where you need to be.

    Split it up into like, three separate maps and it'll be a much better realm.

    Only maps I hate are Swamp and Haddonfield, this is probably my third least favourite realm however.

    It isn't perfect, could use a bit of touching up - but I don't have too much problem when I see it come around.


    Generally, I think it's just unfun.


    A bad survivor team can screw themselves, struggle to find gens, or fail to find the right looping areas.

    A bad killer will get lost, struggle to maintain pressure on the spread out objectives, or lose in loops with the copious amount of pallets spread throughout.


    All in all, both killer and survivor gameplay is rough, so its fair. I think the worst aspect is knowing that they will never change it, as their ambition it to keep it 1:1 with the one from RE.

    Boons and Boil Over aside, this map is awful to play on. It's way too big and confusing, and there are multiple strong/infinite loops.

    It helps to have played RE:2. You can even download the demo free on Steam, which starts with Leon in the station.

    It is a difficult map otherwise to remember the layout. For me as a killer, I find it quite unpleasant the combination of narrow FoV and (unless playing Nemesis) much faster pace than the map was designed for. The narrow corridors and constant turns gives me motion sickness. Shadowborn doesn't help here.

    I hate it.

    Love Re2.

    Still hate the map with a passion in this game.

    I don't mind the map because I've played way too much of the RE games so I know the map quite well. That said, it should NOT have been a 1:1 recreation, it's just FAR too large for DBD standards.

    While I do agree that RPD is not the best map I will say that it is at least better than Midwitch.

    yeah, would have chosen that too. If I ever see that badge show up on the offerings screen I close out to avoid it and the DC penalty. This is the only map I hate more than Lery's

    Worst map in the game. By far.

    Best map in the game. You win or lose because you know the map, not because some lucky-ass pallets spawned next to each other facing a long wall into the Shack.


    People act like this map is huge. It's nothing. It's four wings. Two upstairs, two down. Totem spawns are consistent. If there is any flaw with this map it is that for some reason the hatch can spawn upstairs.


    Only a coward DC's against this map.

    I love this map aesthetically, but people get so confused by the layout, unfortunately. The number of times I've died on the first hook because people can't find the stairs or don't know where they are going... it's painful. The library is also broken asf, I'm a survivor main but even I have to admit that needs fixing. You can go down at the top of the library and never get hooked.

    Honestly, compared to how atrocious most maps in this game are, I actually like RPD.
