Lack of med kits?
Are we playing the same game?
Its 7 chapter on "Impossible" and Im rolling my face in Nodes, Plasma Cutter Ammo, 20k Credits and Big Medkits

Do you even try to play the game?

[sBuckler]

Even in the Hard and Impossible difficulties med kits are never a problem. You can buy them with credits also.

The remake is way easier than the OG. So yeah, nice try, troll.

This.

I tried to see how high of a record I could get if I sell EVERYTHING I don't need (though I was played on normal).

By the time I was ready to leave the Ishimura to go to the colony, I had upgraded EVERYTHING for my suit, plasma cutter, and contact beam.

And yet I still had 450,000 credits and 15 power nodes which I had no use for.

Seems the op needs 3 med kits for every single enemie. Maybe don't go for headshots all the time.

The only time the headshot is useful is against the immature guardians, since they don't have tentacles yet.

If you're running out of health kits constantly, this might be a sign that you're taking too much damage. If you're getting hit more than once in normal fights or twice in larger fights (ex: quarantine lockdown rumbles), that's probably too much. Health is the most expensive resource in the game - most melee attacks will drop you by at least 25 health, which equates to a 2500 credit setback if you're healing with medium health kits. Using a stasis charge (1700 credits base, less expensive with more stasis capacity) or extra half a clip of ammo (1200-2400 depending on gun) to prevent even a single hit is usually the correct option from a resource management standpoint.

If that's not the case and you're still having medkit scarcity problems, I suggest stocking up more heavily when you get to stores. The economy system is there as a soft buffer against poor RNG - if you aren't finding enough, buy them outright. I find a good number to try and stay at is 3-4 medium health kits.

Whats a med kit? that green thing that i sell because it is fills up my inventory and has no use?
Shoot the legs out shoot the arm off rip off said arm and fling it at the feker they are clearly getting too close to you.

Game loot system is designed to drop ammo when ammo is low and medkits when hp is low. If your hp is always so low that the games dynamic drops can't keep you propped up. Then it's time to just swallow some pride and lower the difficulty. You can do it at anytime in the pause menu even mid fight.

Going on a limb here (pun intended) and assuming you're body shotting necromorphs and not going for the arms and legs. This nearly triples the shots required to kill and gives them plenty of time to close the distance and deal damage. Always shoot the legs first so they can't charge you anymore.
