If you’ve been playing the overhead extraction shooter Zero Sievert, you already know how deep the game can get. On top of a variety of guns, there is a wide range of ammo types you can also pick up. However, how to use different ammo could be clearer. If you’ve received the “No Ammo Found” notification but have ammo in your inventory, you need to switch your ammo type.
Switching Ammo Types in Zero Sievert
To switch your ammo type in Zero Sievert, players must hit the Y key, then use the mouse scroll to navigate to the ammo they want to load and hit the Y key again. Your character will load the gun with the ammo type selected. You can view the ammo amount in the parenthesis next to the type.
Ammo Types in Zero Sievert Explained
There are different ammo types for each caliber in Zero Sievert, each with unique properties and statistics. Some ammo types will make your gun less efficient by reducing key stats, while other ammunition types will make your damage higher or accuracy more effective.
Here are a few common ammunition types in Zero Sievert:
- AP: Armor-piercing bullets reduce your damage but have a higher penetration, meaning they can go through body armor more easily.
- BT: Boat-tailed bullets reduce accuracy and damage but pack a higher penetration value.
- HP: Hollow-point rounds have poor armor penetration but damage unarmored targets considerably.
- Subsonic: Subsonic bullets have really poor armor penetration but significantly reduce recoil.
- PS: Pulya Stalnaya, or the “Steel Bullet,” is more of a standard-type ammo type in Zero Sievert.
The cool thing about Zero Sievert is that a lot of the guns and ammo types actually reflect real-life.
