Advancing by Ignoring Enemies
If you're overwhelmed by enemies and can't defeat them all with a knife or other means, it's advisable to ignore them and move forward. Along the way, you may find ammo or crafting materials in wooden crates or other containers. Some enemies are not essential to defeat, so running past them can be a strategic move.
Tips to Conserve Ammo
Aim for Headshots and Use Melee Attacks
To conserve ammo, aim for enemies' weak points, usually the head, and follow up with melee attacks. This technique allows you to defeat enemies using less ammo. If melee attacks aren't possible, aiming for the weak point is still beneficial as it maximizes damage per shot.
