Firearm ammunition

[AmorphousAmoeba]

I just reached survivor rank 10, at which point guns start making their way into the game. Before reaching this point, I had always read that guns and ammo were extremely scarce. I bought a shotgun and a pistol from the vendor. Then I went to each of the vendors in the tower and bought all the ammo for each type of gun that I could. I opened my inventory and noticed that I had maximum ammo for each weapon type, including rifles which I haven't even unlocked yet. It appears that buying one unit of rifle ammo from a vendor = 30 rounds (for $200). For pistols, 1 unit = 15 rounds and for shotguns, 1 unit = 30 rounds. Is my game bugged or something? Or can you seriously completely max out your ammo for all 3 guns for around only $2,000?

At first I thought I obtained all this ammo through a bug or something, because I saw that I had 60 rifle ammo in my inventory, and at that point I am positive that I never purchased any rifle ammo from vendors and I also never picked any up in the world. I'm not sure where it came from, but I wasn't expecting ammo to be so abundant. Did I unintentionally perform some sort of glitch that awards you with far more ammo than you're supposed to have? Or is everything working as intended?

Ammo isn't scarce at all .- you can feel up hopping to a few different vendors and then use the police vans littered all over the city.

Soo.. regarding the amount of ammo that I have and the amount that vendors sell per $200 unit - this is working as intended? Meaning that I can buy 60 shotgun shells for $400...

It isn't that ammo is scarce.....but rather that you can carry so little that you quickly run out as you're traversing through the city. And I applaud them for this approach since having huge pools of bullets would just make this game even more of a cakewalk then it already is. And once you get past your twenties in level and get weapons that start off between 300-400 base damage.....guns really just become obsolete anyways.

No it's intended (I guess?) Gun ammo, although limited, is cheap at that point in the game. The whole weapon scaling in this game is wayyyy off.

With the legendary levels your guns can go up to 34k damage when you hit 25 lvl for the firearms bonus
