Facing Pig on RCPD

I hadn't thought of this as a problem before until it happened to me just now, but I died to the Pig's reverse bear trap on RCPD because I only physically made it to two of the boxes in time without any interference from the killer whatsoever. Had the second box been the correct one, I would have barely lived.

I will admit I lost some time trying to find my way around and that should get better as I get to know the map, but even then it's so big I don't think it's possible to make it to all of the boxes in time. The Pig didn't have any addons either. I feel like the reverse bear trap should pressure you off gens, but not actually kill you just because have bad RNG, which isn't typically a problem. On this map though...

Anyone else experienced anything like this before? Any other interesting/frustrating RCPD stories?

    The larger maps increase the likelihood of a head pop, and that's without add-ons to add an additional box to search or increase the search time or reduce the trap time. But in my experience it is way too often coming off with the first search, or def the second.

    Pig really needs a mini-rework. Her RBT's effectiveness are too variable depending on map and as you experienced huge maps that are hard to navigate make her RBTs way too lethal.

    In my experience, if you ever see a pig use a Midwich offering she is 99% of the time running Tampered Timer + Extra Box addons. It's crazy how effective that combo is at guaranteeing a RBT kill.

    To me, that sounds less like a reason to re-work Pig and more like a reason to fix maps that are too big.

    My computer suddenly crashes during the loading screen whenever someone offers an RPD map offering. It's a very curious occurrence. But I am thankful for it, it saves me the head ache.

    I gurantee if you bring tampered+Crate and manage to get an active trap on a survivor before they can search any of the boxes, they will 100% die. Its probably the most cruel build i can feasibly think of lol

    Racoon City is the only map where I got my head pop. Two, actually. Maybe the map is good for something after all. Time to horde those map offerings on Piglet.

    Why is it whenever someone someone else runs tampered and crate, they get head pops almost every game but every time I do it they get it off first try? I've literally only gotten like 1 or 2 kills with those add ons on the rare occasion I run them to test my luck. So many people get first or second box that its almost pointless to use them it feels like.


    On a side note, I did manage to get one using Amanda's letter once. At red ranks. Because he decided to unhook and heal and do gens and take hits for his teammates rather than take the helmet off.

    I get Pig on that map more than any other map for some reason, and they never use offerings. That map is just dogshit for everyone. I won the game for my teammates the other day (all three stopped doing gens, fully healed) so I finished the last two entirely by myself while injured (turns out you can keep playing the game while injured, who knew???) and then I died because I couldn't find the exit gate and that ######### maze of a "map."

    Wraith with speed addon and Silent Bell on that map is also incredibly oppressive.

    Also, Hag…

    I have lots of games where it is the last box, especially if you are the first to get a trap.

    Pig can be broken on that map. Regular Pig can get head pops more frequently on that map just by placing traps and it's already incredibly in her favor. Unless it's me then they usually get it off first box they find -.- I used Amanda's Letter on rpd and did alright but on that map, I'm less focused on winning at the end and allowing survivors to boop the snoot if they get out.

    Hag can also be broken on that map. Bring rusty shackles and survivors will flop.

    The dirtiest thing you can do with either Hag or Piggy (well any killer but it's deadliest with these two) is blindness builds. I used a blind Hag + devour build on her and whilst they found my devour fairly quickly, it took them ages to find the totem for Third Seal which hurt them tremendously.

    Best way to get head pops are on that map which should tell the devs the map is too big but we all know it isn't changing anytime soon.

    I'll never forget during the mini Saw Event we just had, where I was Pig on the RPD Map. Got two early kills without really trying or meaning to do. The last two Survivors gave up and accepted their fates...I took pity and farmed with em....I used up my last remaining traps and the poor Laurie either underestimated the Trap, or lucked out badly and I accidentally killed her with a head pop xD

    I was against a Hag once in this map. Oh my, it was actually scaring!

  • GenJockeyNance

    I've played Hag so much on rpd but as survivor, I've never gotten a Hag on it and I count my blessings because as a Hag main, I know how deadly she is on that map.

    I see a lot lotta doctor on it tho

    Pig is almost guaranteed a headpop on rpd, especially with that one addon that makes the boxes invisible until ticking down
