I feel like some people miss Hawkins

It was one of my favorite maps to play one because I found it extremely unique and one where a win/lose rate seemed normal for me and I feel like most people miss it. So why doesn't Behavior just make a map that's like Hawkins but isn't it's not like Netflix made a creepy lab it's a common type of please to be fair so why don't they just make a sorta new Hawkins.

    Please don't remake Hawkins, please don't. That Map wasn't exactly what you'd call a "balanced Map", with the majority of the Pallets being way too unsafe, 2 Generators the Killer had to give up due to their placements and there was too much clutter in the hallways, denying multiple Killers the ability to use their Powers

    The killer in me misses Hawkins.

    The survivor in me makes me glad that it's gone.

    It was fun to throw a hatchet through the gaps in the yellow metal fence.

    It was definitely a cool and good looking map imo. I miss it occasionally too, but it was very unbalanced and I am not sure any changes could have balanced it without reworking the entire map like how BHVR is doing with RPD.

    I miss it because I loved the aesthetic of it and it had really unique loops. Though idk if it would be best to remake the map considering it was really unbalanced.

    I don't trust people who miss Hawkins. The same people force RPD on people now.

    Those people hate fun

    Hawkins was a very nice map for low tier killers like Pig. A lot of Ambush-Options for example.

    I really miss it. They could instead get rid of the "The Game"-Crap.

    I miss Hawkins so much, it was one of the best maps in the game gameplay wise.

    I wonder if the devs still have it's archives saved in case Netflix changes their opinions.

    It's a beautiful map but I didn't like it, so I'm glad it's gone to be fair

    I always enjoyed it as someone who gets bored by the "run in a circle" strats in most maps...Hawkins inspired more creative routing than any other map and it was always fun to wind up going there to see how people would chain pallets and structures together. Plus it was just fun thematically.

    I don't miss Hawkins but if map offering wasn't a thing, it can be fine.

    Missing Hawkins is understandable but surely some will start to hate for its comeback.

    I loved Hawkins as both killer and survivor a lot of unique loops. though will say the majority of pallets where unsafe and worthless

    Honestly I loved it I whish it never left :( Granted I was usually in green / purple ranks back then but I still was happy to play on it both as survivor & killer.

    I miss Hawkins. I was a good map, different and fun.

    Loss of content is never good, as much as I'm not a fan of RPD I'd rather see it reworked than deleted.

    Lack of map choice is never good.

    I miss Hawkins so much, it had a cool atmosphere. It's where I learned to play actually.

    I miss it.

    Don't miss it at all, neither as killer nor as survivor.

    I don't even think it looked good. The portal room was cool, but the whole rest of the map looked like a ps2 game

    I miss playing scratched mirror Myers on it

    As a survivor, I completely miss hawkins. I loved the unsafe pallets because (and hear me out) it felt like it gave the killers a much better, easier map to catch survivors on loops and made it fairer in my opinion. As a killer I also completely miss hawkins.

    I miss Hawkins! I absolutely loved The Rift Lab and the interrogation rooms.

    I do miss being scared at the gen on the top floor, but the amount of crappy situations that can happen there makes it hard to truly miss the map.

    Great atmosphere, not so great gameplay/

    Pretty much this, it would help alot of m1 "stealth" killers

    I do miss it. Was pretty unique and matches were usually exciting. Should have reworked it but that costs time and effort.

    I only liked it when I was playing a stealth killer. Any other time I hated it. Still want it back.

    Hawkins was a frustrating map for me sometimes, but I do miss it.

    Did we ever get an explanation of why it can't be reworked and called something else?
