NA is a whole different story anyway. It's not just helms deep that is a problem there. It's basically 70% of the maps due to low population.
For EU, it will stay in. I'm not even sure why people still hate it so much. Yes, it's big and i admit that the versions that were on the server before were a complete disaster, but when it comes to walking distance and balance it is just as good as any other maps that have been in the rotation since forever, at least the newest version. Heck, the distance for attackers is even shorter than on some.
I'm going to play a little more crpg from now on again and see what the majority of the players think of it when i'm on the server, but sorry, a few "I don't like it, make it go away"posts (Maybe some actual good feedback why the version on the server is bad would do a much better job here, but i really haven't seen any of those) won't make me just throw away the map that i've spend so much time and effort on. If i only get bad feedback i will remove it from EU as well, and then rework it again to make it work. But once again, i will make my own picture of it on the servers before i rush to a decision.
