Some of you may know me from my thread about the Meatshield Hitbox Problem: http://forums.epicgames.com/threads/889540-Meatshield-Bug-Exposed
It contains a video showing how the Lancer is the only starting weapon that can damage the person holding the meatshield, while the other starting weapons do no damage to them, even when you aim at the face.
This problem is bringing a NEW problem to my attention: Bots vs Meatshields
The last couple of games I played, the other team had a few bots on it. And every time I would pick up a meatshield, one of the bots would start Lancering my face with 100% accuracy, downing me in under a second. THIS IS A MAJOR PROBLEM. If that bot had any other starting weapon, they would not have even damaged me. Coupled with the bots' insane accuracy with all weapons, the Meatshield Hitbox Problem causes the meatshields to be worthless against bots, because the bots usually have a Lancer, and they KNOW that you can only be hurt with headshots, so they will down you instantly.
For the love of god, Epic, please fix your game.
