The chainsaw regenerates one unit of fuel every 20 seconds or so. One unit is required to use it on a fodder demon. Do that regularily and you will never run out of ammo.

Remember: don't wait until you run out. Instead work the chainsaw into the rhythm of your combat. Later, when your arsenal is bigger, you won't need it that often, but the chainsaw in this game is for harvesting ammo, not, like in 2016, for saving fuel to kill a big demon.

You can do that from time to time, a heavy demon costs three pips (you need to pick up canisters for that, only the first charge refills by itself) but in general you should see the chainsaw as an ammo generator, not a weapon.

Yeah, it's weird. You had a question. People helped. Some weirdo questioned your sincerity. It escalated. Two guys banned. Funny.

Wow, I’m really sorry to hear that, but it’s good to see the moderators took action this time. It’s no surprise though; this community is known for such behavior.
It looks like you’ve already received some insights.

The irony here is thick—Doom Eternal is often criticized for its questionable game design, particularly the tedious ammo management. The developers opted for a design where players must hunt specific enemies to replenish ammo, seemingly because it was easier than strategically placing ammo boxes throughout the levels. This approach makes any discussion about the game's mechanics a touchy subject. Fans are quick to defend against what they perceive as attacks, viewing every question through a skeptical lens. It’s unfortunate, but that’s just the pulse of this community.:steamthumbsup:

i was actually talking about the sekiro community lol, some nutjob from over there hunted me down over to here because he got baited hard and wasn't too happy about it...doom's community on the other hand is cool as a cucumber

Spoken like someone who is there a ammo.
