Don't take it out. A lot of people like that map. I'd suggest lowering the tickets to 100. Make it a quickie!!!

Also, the snow maps need the tickets lowered a bit. After all the building are smashed (TwoBad 2.0) the levels degenerate into a flag capture race with little or no fighting or tactics.

I quite like Heavy Metal, but as with alot of BC2 maps it can quickly desolve into a sniper-fest :(

This might not be to everyone's taste, but can we restrict the number of people equipped with sniper rifles? I wouldn't like to see the Recon class iteself restricted, as I often use it with a G3.

Agree!

Only one map i don't really like:
Laguna Presa


Conquest maps

Who? Me? Don't know what you're talking about :D
White Pass: This is ok (except giving me CTD) but as has been said does need less tickets.  I think 100 may be a little too small, 150 or 200.

Panama Canal: Don't mind losing this one.  If it stays tickets need to be lowered.

Atacama Desert:  If you'd asked me about this map a month ago (when on Rush) i'd have said get rid of it.  However, since going onto Conquest i've really enjoyed it.  A few times now i've moved it onto this map when going on the server when empty just so i can fly the choppers for some fun but found it will fill the server quite well.  Only down side i have found is you have to let people use the tanks and choppers before 5v5.  But that can be fun too, shot a guy down last night 4 times in a row before he tried new tactics :doh:.  Less tickets maybe? 300

Heavy Metal:  We should keep this map.  A lot of people love this map including me.  Does need less tickets, 250 or 300.
BTW, it's in the map list as a 2 rounder right now!

A conquest map i'd like us to trial is African Harbor.  Provided you don't get penned in your spawn then this can be great fun as the flags are virtually on top of each other.

That seems a somewhat flawed and generalised argument Arithon, how does having destroyed buildings make the map degenerate into a flag capture race (which is after all what conquest is) with no fighting or tactics. If anything I'd say you have to improve your tactics and game and think even more as you don't have the luxury of being able to snipe people while hiding in a building.
 
Once the buildings are destroyed the landscape changes and you have to adapt and take advantage of less cover but that should be part of the fun of BC2 - the battlefield evolves.
