doesn't make sense.
Stalker, inherently, isn't a bad map. it isn't great, but it isn't bad either. It sits in the spot of "I'd like it if it was in the rotation, but not every day." That was the problem with 2.1, where we were on Stalker for about 3 months, and it wasn't the best for playercount. A similar situation happened with the substituted map, defn_main, however it was way worse. Main suffered from unequal balancing, stagnation, and general dislike for the winter setting, culminating into 50 players high pop.
As for the map, the reason M was added to spawncamp borders is because it provided a direct sightline into Combine base, and was heavily camped by Rebels, preventing entry into the farther areas of the map (it also couldn't be shelled, as the first and last ordered points are considered spawncamp, which weren't thought of come original release). While the same case can be made for B, it isn't as bad since Rebels have a fully open base and it can be shelled, but that's going on an unneeded tangent. Anyways, the cover on this map isn't great admittedly, however if you're going strictly on roads it's exhaserbated. The openness of the map is an intentional design choice, and the massive sightlines are to make ground vehicle play viable and not bad. Because of this, you're inadvertantly forced to go off-road and around the grassy areas of the map, which is where most of the cover is to main points. You're not supposed to go on the wide open roads, because they're exactly that: wide and open, prime ground for sniper fire.
