Big waste of ammo

[nklshaz]

The Ice Titans from inFamous 2. You can't even kill them with one Ionic Storm because of the QTE that you have to do to expose his head.

Any kind of armoured police assault vehicle in any open-world crime game. Fuckers absorb bullets like they're made of solid Polycarbide (cookie for reference).

EXTERMINATE, EXTERMINATE!!!!!!
Who's a Doctor Who fan, you are! Daleks, those damnable all-hate consumed cyborgs. I get a cookie, yes?

 

[Skorpyo]

Every damn thing in F.E.A.R. or Crysis.

There's nothing BUT bullet sponges in either of those games. Some are just bigger than others.

 

[White Deer]

The bloodsuckers in Call of Pripyat.It's such a pain in the ass to hunt one down.

Nemesis, from Biohazard 3.

Back when Biohazard actually involved survival *and* horror, and you were desperately keeping track of your ammo, the thing that would ruin your day was an 8' tall, rocket-launcher toting, stalking maniac. Seriously, every time he appears you need to go through almost ALL of your ammo just to get away.

Post Biohazard 4 ... pfft. There's no such thing as an ammo waster because you practically have unlimited ammo anyway.

Not just any cookie...

Spoiler: for space-saving :D

Enjoy.

every fallout game deathclaws, trust me i'm a vault dweller.

 

[teh_Canape]

easy, the radscorpions from the Shady Sands cave are fucking badass

though that may just be because I'm at a low level

also, spider drones from Terminator Future Shock

and maybe the kamikazes from Shadow Warrior

 

[CRRPGMykael]

Just about everything in Fallout 3 or Fallout:New Vegas.The ammount of ammo it takes to kill something is just bizzare.

 

[Hashime]

Just a little question to you all out there. In games what do you fnd to be just big bullet sponges or just a total waste of ammo when you see them?
For me i would say the giant radscorpion from FO3 right now since ive been playing it again recently, The ammount of shots it can take sometimes just feels like a waste, sometimes i will just break its legs and walk away its not worth it.

That's nothing.

Try super mutant overlords, Ghoul Reavers, and Albino Radscorpion, those are the real bullet sponges.

Hell, even one Reaver takes at least two Mini Nukes directly before dying.

Oh god thanks for reminding me xD im glad im not there yet

Here is the trick: Stealth, Stealth Boy, Improved Criticals, and the Terrible Shotgun. One sneak attack critical to the face and you can take down a super mutant behemoth in one shot. I have done this. It also works with the giant rad scorpions(maybe not one shot) and reavers.

 

[EHKOS]

Not sure if scripted, or has very big healthbar....
I hate those moments.

 

[Gralian]

Almost anything in Hunted: The Demon's Forge. Even on the medium difficulty they take a ridiculous amount of arrows.

Oh Terminator 2 i think
Timesplitters from Timesplitters 2 those things take so many bullets before dying and theres never one

 

[Warlord211]

Everything in old world blues. I brought a gatling laser and with 100 energy weapons skill I thought it would be a breeze, until everything had 6 million HP and my tickle-laser became useless.

Roboscorpions in Old World Blues at about Level 40. I wasn't even a melee character but using the proton axe is much better than trying to shoot them.

Three words. Armor Piercing Ammo. Seriously, everything else is pretty much pointless.

OT: Super Mutant Behemoth, but I still killed them for the achievement. Sigh, I'm an achievement whore.

 

[Corporal Yakob]

Whenever I play New Vegas I always end up with a small army's worth of firearms, conventional and energy with enough ammunition to start and comfortably maintain a small war and I never seem to use any of it! I collect guns, repair them to maximum condition, get all the mods and ammo for it, then put it in a safehouse locker, never to see the light of day again: I actually stopped playing the game because I realised I was wasting so much time getting all these weapons and never bloody using them!

 

[suitepee7]

Spots in games where the enemies are on unlimited respawn, but you have a limited supply of ammo. Games like CoD World at War on Veteran. That was just a waste of time. I really doubt that the Nazis had a good 200,000 well-armed soldiers in that last damn building.

they do it again on black ops. its on a Vietnam mission where you have to run down a hill with trenches. i did not realise they respawned for quite a while... i fucking hate that hill -_-

 

[Dalek Caan]

Elite Field Marshals on Legendary on Halo:Reach. You need a scorpion tank to kill one of those with one shot. The High Dragon from Dragon Age 2 also gets a mention.

 

[Suicida1 Midget]

I am probably gonna be the only one who who says legate lunious or whatever his name was in NV. He comes running at you will fifty thousand minions, i used all my ammo, broke my melee weapons and resorted to using my fist to end the fight with them. Then the NCR got pissy with me when i shoved that treaty up their asses.>_>

 

[rutger5000]

Fucking poltergeists in S.T.A.L.K.E.R shadow of Chernobyl. Most annoying creatures ever, completly harmless in most cases, certain death in others. They take a bitchload worth of bullets, are incredibly hard to shoot, and will run away from you (but still be able to attack using their phsyicic powers.)

 

[Singularly Datarific]

Anti-Materiel Rifle + Sneak attack criticals. BAM!
I can one-hit deathclaws that way, it's awesome.
