I was laying on the floor and a guy with a shield came running at me after he ran out of bullets......... As he ran towards me, I shot him in the feet repeatedly and did nothing to slow him down. He proceeded to melee me for 129 damage which killed me instantly. Lets think about this. I shot you in the feet as you ran towards me and it had ZERO effect on you. You touch me with your shield for an 1/8th of a second and I die instantly. Do you know how hard it would be to kill someone with a riot shield?? Given the choice to either shoot someone, or, beat them to death with a metal door - I think I would choose the gun. I get that people run out of ammo and need to be able to fight........... But melee kills should be the result of 4 to 5 blows before death. Not an instant 129 damage kill.
