@GH0STEDbyME watching back, I noticed that I left heavy ammo in a box when I swapped to blue armor in the city. There was no big strategy behind it, I was just in too much hurry to loot properly and I was hoping to catch up to that Pathfinder who ran away. If I left valuable ammo behind elsewhere too then it was just because I was rushing around too much to pay attention to all the available loot.
I just wanted to catch as many enemies as possible before they all died and I missed my chance. You can always switch to a different weapon if one of your guns runs out. The key thing is to just keep moving, because the enemies that are killing each other will not pause the fight to wait for you to arrive 🙂
I was specifically going for the 4k badge and I often just barely miss it. Then I think back to all the moments where I could've saved time, avoided some small detours and gotten to the enemy just a second earlier, before someone else one clipped him.
If you're wondering what's the right play for you, I'd say that it depends on your goals. If you just want to win then you can chill and work on getting fully stacked for the endgame. However, if you want to maximize kills and damage then you need to look for a chance to get into fights immediately. Just pick up some armor and a half-decent gun and rush at the enemies before they can get fully stacked themselves. In the end you'll get all of the best loot from eliminated enemies anyway and if you third party fights while people are low on health then you should be able to wipe them with your inferior loot.
