I used to think it would be bad if they ever removed deployable ladders from siege, but after it was done I actually preferred it more.
As has already been said umpteen times, defense has more of a chance of winning, although attackers still have the advantage on most maps.

Another disadvantage of having deployable ladders is that defense doesn't actually get to use any creativity or coordination - it's just 'camp the flag' every map.  Without the ladders defense actually gets to enjoy using the rest of the map and defend some walls, ramps, doors, etc.

The ONLY way deployable ladders should be let back in would be if attacker spawn was reduced by at least 10 seconds.  Otherwise there's just no chance 9 times outta 10.

Hmm my current siege experience as defender is "just camp the flag".

...
 Ok, that is not the whole truth. On the both crap maps, where you have to hack through a few destroyable gates, we change that to "jump off the walls and disturb the attacks to knock on your gate".

I think the maps are already unbalanced as it is (defenders or attackers usually have a clear advantage on most maps).  I think ladders just make it so that attackers can pretty much win every map. 

Either way I wouldn't care, it's the same end result, the map is unbalanced.  That's why I don't enjoy playing siege (If I'm trying to keep a multiplier).

remove all indestructible map ladders, make siege tower breakable, allow 2 of each kind of ladder to be deployed

siege would actually be FUN
