I don't care im gonna keep saying it RPD is the worst map of all time. there should be a case-study on how bad it is.

half of the killers powers doesn't even work on this map.

"I HATE HADDONFIELD BECAUSE THE FENCE MAKES ME GO AROUND" dude in RPD i can't even tell where im going theres suppose to be a hook 1meter away from my face behind this one wall. To get to that hook i need to walk down the hallway take a left,then a 45degree turn, then in to the elevator, then push the button, then open the shaft then, climb through then press up up down left right. It never ends. I can never go where i want.

can we trade in this map license for Demogorgon? i mean if thats too much to ask maybe like a charm of this map in the memory of getting rid of it ?

to be fair since the release of the map ive been dcing everytime i get it, but today i felt feisty so i gave it a try. Its so bad. sooo bad. huge lapse of judgement. at this point i can't tell if its because the map is genuinely that bad or im not giving it a fair chance...

what's good about this map? anyone ?

    this is the part that kinda makes me sad when i say stuff like this. Because there are people out there who genuinely enjoy the map. but maan can i get barometer for when the next RPD is coming so i can side step it in advance?

    Also, very brave of you coming out against the general consensus i commend you for that.

    It looks pretty...that's about all it has going for it.

    This map is so easy to play when you actually know every corner from it. I didn't even played RE2make and I already know the layout.

    he's big? Yes... But it's also a map where survivors doesn't have too many hiding options imo.

    Oh good. I thought this post was going to be someone hitting the horse on Father Campbell.

    Dead dawn saloon is worse. Nasty infinites, a hundred breakable walls and very small map which favors gens rush..

    RPD isn't that bad as killer, most survivor don't know where to go there. I hate it more as survivor, most of the times my teammates die fast there.

    this map is why i run info perks.

    spies from the shadows / windows of opportunity never had so much value

    It's sad because I like RPD as a concept for a map, I think with some work it could be a good map but...

    Ttake every problem all other indoor maps have:

    • God pallets
    • Claustrophobic hallways leading to boring chases
    • Confusing layouts
    • Bad generator spread (For BOTH sides, I'll explain in a moment)
    • Unfair secondary objective spawns (Totems, Jigsaw boxes)
    • And finally - starting certain killers off with a huge disadvantage as soon as the match begins

    You take all those problems and put them on steroids. That is RPD.

    • The god pallets on the map are both frustrating but also somehow necessary given the fact literally almost every other pallet is unsafe
    • The Entire map is a hallway apart from the middle and crashed helicopter section
    • The layout is incredibly confusing even to those like myself who played RE2. I know the general layout but knowing how to get from Point A (One side of the map) to Point B (E.G a hooked survivor) is still a chore
    • Generator spreads that are both extremely unfair for killer (Gens being countries apart) But also RNG deciding "Screw it, the middle part is gonna have two gens right next to each other."
    • I've heard there are 34 possible totem spawn locations, If it wasn't for the GUARANTEED totem in the S.T.A.R.S office, I wouldn't even know where to begin looking. I'm also convinced this map is what got headpop pig nerfed; the jigsaw box spread is ridiculous and still can lead to headpops without the addons
    • Any projectile based killer has to deal with constant corners. Hillbilly's main strength of mobility is completely neutered on this map too
