Hunter modes glitches and fixes on PC

I only play hunter mode as of now and have found a few issues that need to be fixed for the game to run smoother. First on my list is the Hydro Dam glitch. As a human CELL operative you would think swimming is a big bad no-no because you would be picked off and have up until now. In one of the bottom corners in the dam's water there is a side of a building that has fallen in the water and created a shelter for cell operatives to stand underwater behind cover and also shoot anyone trying to swim down to melee you before they EVER get the chance. People also hide in that building on the edge of the face of the damn with the two vents above the "entrance" that the cell can shoot out of but nano users can't crawl into......Everyone runs to these two spots and it is next to impossible to get them killed which in turn ruins the whole game type. The second big concern for Hunter that I have is the shields. How do humans kill nanosuit users with a wimpy little love tap from a big, flat, non pointy or EMPey metal shield thing. This is not the part that bothers me but the way that the designers programmed the shield is ridiculous! If I know someone has a shield and I want to kill them I will try to get them to turn a little bit or just stick a thermite to the shield they are holding and if they throw it before it explodes I'm ready with a fully drawn regular arrow to finish them. Well the ultra camp tool, the shield, will kill me even if I am NOWHERE near it anymore. Lets say I try to melee the shield guy while he is looking at some one else, well after I have the melee finished I run away as far as I can to get another angle on him with my bow now that I shook him up a little. DEAD! Even when I'm not in the same room as the guy he can hit me. I think there is a huge delay in the time the shield takes to realize there are no longer enemies in front of it.....I get "stuck" in its attack somehow even when a good ten yards away already. The other reason it is OP is the fact that it does the same thing when someone throws it at you. You somehow get stuck in this delayed attack or will get killed by the shield bouncing off the floor after the guy missed you with it!!! How is it I can fall infinitely and take no damage and I can kick a bloody car forty yards but a flat piece of "metal" that taps me is going to kill my ass?!?!?!?! Whatever. The last thing I have to say about the shields is they dont always kill the user when you stick them with thermite. This happened to me a few times IN A ROW and I was furious, since you only get one thermite per life as a hunter I felt like I pretty much had to commit suicide to be useful. I've always had no problem with the thermite killing people when I stick there shield as long as they don't throw it before it explodes. This is not the case. These people, I dont know if it was hackers but they would not explode..... Thanks for you rtime, I feel these issues need to be touched up or Hunter is going to not be played for long.
