we need to talk about nails
seriously, what's the deal with them?

first of all you can hold 200 of nails. sounds good right? nope, Super Nailgun shoots them away in mere seconds. it's not like they have high damage output either, they barely last enough for couples of shamblers

at the same time they're awkwardly placed in levels. you can't hoard them for tougher battles unlike cells and either they're everywhere so you're compelled to use it instead of grenades or shotgun even if they make more sense or they're gone or you have to backtrack through the whole level to collect remaining ones. meanwhile there is rarely a case when you're below 50 of rocket ammo and shells are basically limitless.

seriously fuck nails, they should've let you keep 400 of them or remove regular nailgun and have the super nailgun eat 1 ammo instead of 2 for the same damage.
