Ammo
Ammunition, also called Ammo, is a staple item found almost
universally across the
Silent Hill series. Three types of ammo can be found, with quantities of
each varying from game to game. The level of game difficulty chosen also
influences the quantity of ammo found. Like health items, ammo is scattered
throughout the games, so pay attention as you explore and be sure to grab every
box you can. The ammo types are
Handgun
Ammo,
Rifle Ammo,
and
Shotgun
Ammo.
Handgun Ammo
Typically the most plentiful type of ammo found, the total
amount of ammo that can be found varies between the
different game titles. Depending on game, the total number of
rounds found per box of ammo can vary as well.
In Origins, there are three types of handguns, hence
there are three types of ammo for them; Target Ammo,
Service Ammo, and Redeemer Ammo.
- Target Ammo, a .22 caliber bullet, comes in boxes
of 24. The Target Pistol can fire six shots before needing
to reload.
- Service Ammo, a 9mm bullet, comes in boxes of 16.
The Service Pistol can fire eight shots before reloading is
required.
- Redeemer Ammo, a .44 caliber bullet, can be found
in boxes of 6. The Redeemer can fire 6 shots before needing
to reload.
Shotgun Ammo
Shotgun ammo is generally harder to find and less plentiful than handgun
ammo, though not at rare as rifle ammo. Rounds, typically referred to as shells,
are filled with small balls of lead called shot, hence the name shotgun.
Unlike previous games, you only have two shots before you
need to reload. You'll find yourself reloading often. Ammo is
found in boxes of four.
Rifle Ammo
Rifles, using various names throughout the
games, are generally the most powerful firearms
available. As such, ammo is scarce and should be
conserved.
Origins has two variations of the rifle,
a hunting rifle, and an assault rifle.
- The Hunting Rifle holds four shots, max,
with ammo coming in groups of four.
- The Assault Rifle holds eighteen bullets
before a reload is needed, with ammo found
in boxes of eighteen.
