I wish they didn't go with simplified ammo. I know it's a small thing but I loved having to weigh the pros and cons of weapons based on the ammo they use, and I'll die a little inside every time I unload my M16 and shove those rounds into the AK-47 I just picked up. And seeing generic "pistol ammo" and "assault rifle ammo" is so immersion breaking - and this is a series that lives and dies off immersion.

But who knows. I might be dead wrong here and the slight dumbening down might help them attract a wider audience, in which case I'm happy for them. No matter what in the end I just wish them huge success after all they've gone through.

Ah disappointing, building up a stash completely filled with all different types of ammo would have brought some nostalgia. The different and more realistic ammo types was a great detail to the game and a big differentiator between all of the various guns. I'd often be choosing my load-out not based on my favorite or most powerful gun but whichever gun used the ammo that I could easily scavenge along the way. That small detail definitely gave the games a more zone-survival-feel

Hopefully there will be mods to bring more realism and detail back into the game
