    It's there, it just doesn't show up very often. I've had it once since Bone Chill, and even during Bone Chill I only saw it a couple of times

    Sometimes you just get unlucky on map draws. When the theater map came out I went about a month before I saw it.

    I played on it 2-3 times just today (PS5). Generally relatively rare for me so far, though.

    There are 59 maps in the game. Meaning you effectively have a less than 2% chance to roll this specific map without offerings or outside modifiers.

    If you want to see it more often, bring the Ormond offering to up that to effectively 25% (you can still occasionally not get the realm you brought the offering for if the game feels like it).

    More like 0.1% because they bring their own map offerings or use sacrificial ward

    I have only played on it twice since it was added, you have to remember there are 3 variant's of the Ormond Lodge it has to compete with when the realm is chosen.

    Ive gotten it like 2 or 3 times, it was actually quite enjoyable and felt fairly balanced

    Actually you have around a 2.6% chance to get Ormond Lake (assuming you didn't play on Ormond during the previous match). How map selection works in dbd goes as follows:

    A random realm is selected, each with an equal likelihood of being chosen. There are 20 realms, so each has a 5% chance of being selected (assuming it's the player's first ever match, my previous statistic assumes that another realm had been played on during the previous match)

    A random map from the selected realm is then chosen, Ormond has 2 maps, and so the chance of specifically getting Lake Mine is half of the likelihood that you'll get Ormond.

    Edit: Completely forgot that BHVR decided to add 2 variants to the original map, the actual likelihood would be around 1.3%

    Yeah, it is rare. Does not help that Ormond has 4 maps, with 2 of them being ugly variants of the original Map.

    Which is a shame - they decided to make those new maps who look really bad and are also, again, featuring deadzones, super unsafe Pallets and 3-Gens and the result is that you get the enjoyable and really balanced and completely new Ormand-Map even less…
