R.C.P.D map is the worst map we've ever received.
The map looks absolutely beautiful but holy #########, gameplay wise it is the worst we've ever had. Worse than midwich, worse than the new game, worse than Haddonfield, worse than Badham Preschool.
For starters Hillbilly and Blight (idk about Oni and Nurse but they may also have it bad) are straight up unplayable on it. As Blight you will not only have to deal with the constant sliding off the walls but the millions of doorways survivors can rapidly enter in to make your power useless. Same thing as Hillbilly but atleast he can insta-down.
As a Survivor it has a very confusing layout meaning you'll have to spend a lot of time traveling through to map to find a gen to work on, not to mention deal with the sparsity of the pallets. As a Killer you'll need to deal with the many god pallets on the map and also the gigantic map size.
Honestly, im not sure how BHVR could create a map like this after the community has constantly stated that indoor maps and god pallets are awful for the game. It just feels like they aren't listening.

Funny enough I've never had the map as killer yet have had it like 9+ times as survivor though

Unluckily enough I've gotten this map a decent amount of times as survivor and killer.

I've only played on this map once and got stuck in one area because I literally couldn't find my way around the place. I would always end up back where I started. This map is so confusing and difficult to navigate and I don't even wanna begin to imagine how awful playing killer is on it.

It really ######### annoys me, and I hate it SO much, I hate it.

It shares the issue of pretty much all licensed chapters:
It's 'faithful' and fitting to the license, but gameplay wise it's a mess.

It also has dark sections that are impossible to see survivors in, and a ridiculous hook spread.
That map is going to be amazing for survivor main RE fans and literally no-one else. It might be my most hated map. The Game has finally been knocked from its perch.

so i like this card very much. Both in the survival side and in the killer side. It's pretty hard for the killer side. If I land on the map with my Blight, then of course I want to master it. On the survivor side, I actually get along well with this card. I know almost all the entrances and exits.

This map has terrible flow to it. Needs to be more simple.

Worst map for Oni. Haddonfield in second place.

The map looks good, but it's way too big and it's bad for both sides. I played killer once on that map and it was hell, I played survivor a few times on it and it was confusing.

For blight yea its broke, but i rate it 7/10 better than game.

At least it looks good, unlike Midwich which is ugly as #########

It's a big licence. We're gonna be stuck with it even if doesn't fit DbD gameplay.

Agreed. This map went over like a fart in church.

To be fair, I can see where this map might work really well for ranged killers...like Huntress, like Trickster. I played it as Pyramid Head once or twice and it wasn't terrible. But if I never saw this map again, it would be too soon.

It's just a terrible TERRIBLE map and yet it still has performance issues even on PC.
I enjoyed the time while it was disabled.
Can't wait for the map offering to be enabled, gonna be much fun to DC every time i see it.

Every of the licensed Maps feels awful to Play as Killer ( mostly Haddonfield i always quit if i got this trash )
They looks great are unique vit Gameplaywise they are just Bad
Damn even the Corn Maps where you cant see anything as Killer feels much better to Play 🤷🏻♀️

What we're they thinking of in terms of Blight, Oni etc. Its fun for a survivor but it's pretty much unplayable for certain killers. Its kinda Monaco GP for killers opposed to Silverstone.

Fun powers like mobility Killers would like to dodge this mapy every single time if they could.
For stealth Killers it's amazing.

It's definitely a weird map for gameplay in dbd. It 100% doesn't fit and it does make fast mobility killers fairly useless. I've only played on it once since the update and it was as Doctor. We all know what that means: Doc + Indoor Map = Pain for Survivors, and it was so easy it was ugly.

The map is so awful to play, but goodness is looks great!

This is why BHVR needs to stop just porting maps from other games.

O had the luck yesterday to have my first game on the map as blight.
And while I agree that it is horrendous gameplay wise for mobility killer, it is impressively accurate to the source material. (As far as I can tell since I never played resident evil myself but watched let's plays).
But this detail to the source material is also a reason why it most probably won't be changed.
Edit: Oh and forget to play ranged killer like slinger or huntress there, the narrow corridors and many corner are a nightmare. But hey setup killer like trapper or hag could be strong. Also hex perks might be spread enough to be too strong.

It could easily be split into 2. No reason for the biggest map in the game to be indoors and with two floors. I had a game as Legion where I hooked a Leon near that crashed helicopter and I could barely see the BBQ auras just with how far they were. Took almost a full minute to get to the gens they were and Leon went to second stage as survivors also don't have mobility.

Honestly, since the map revamp the cornfield is no longer quite the safe haven for Survivors that it was before. But I agree with you in general.

I played it as Mikey this morning, and even infinite EW3 didn't save me. One of my worst Killer matches in recent memory.

If you dont know the map already for playing Re2 remake, youre lost at the moment. But yeah its not fitting the DBD gameplay. Another mistake to add to the list..

They should've made multiple versions of the map with different areas sectioned off so it wasn't so big

We wait a whole year for a new map amd them we get...
THIS
RCPD combines pretty much all features we hate
-Awful gen spread
-Gens are hard to find
-Navigating the map is difficult
-RCPD is HUGE
-Indoor map so a lot of killer power are useless there
RCPD + the map reworks just show that BHVR has no idea about balancing gameplay on maps.

I guess I would say it’s too faithful to the Remake.
The remake isn’t designed for DbD gameplay.

I got it twice playing killer. Once as Doctor. Once as Nemesis. As Nemesis...it was the easiest match I ever had. Mostly cause the Zombies are actually useful on this map. As Doctor....it was the most frustrating match I ever played. Why? Cause Doctor's Shock Therapy DID NOT WORK. I could only use the blast. Just farmed that match instead as a result.
