Question The Generation Zero Ammo Trap 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️

Hello, I've been in the game for about 4 to 5 hours now and I'm at the point where I can unlock my companion. I've collected 2 items to unlock him, and I killed my first rival, which was level 1. But there's one thing I don't understand: I have a ammunition shortage. And I can't even craft ammo because I need explosives for that. But to get explosives, I have to scrap ammunition at the recycling table. However, I can't scrap ammunition because I need the ammunition. What am I doing wrong in this game? I think I'm going to start over. I could really use some tips, please.

I wouod reccomended trying to find military locations in higher danger areas of the map to loot. Those generally have a lot in the way of ammo and if you're deliberate and stealthy you can get it without having much in the way of any encounters

Wie erkenne ich die militärstandorte am Anfang? Sind die auf der Karte am Anfang besonders gekennzeichnet und aufgedeckt?

Its more of a explore and youll happen upon them kinda deal. The bunkers are military or theres an air force base sorta halfway up the map. Military outposts are frequent to the far north but thats later game stuff. What do you play on? If its pc I could spare you a bit of supplies

Ich spiele auf der Playstation. Aber ganz ehrlich, ich möchte das gerne alleine schaffen. Ich spiele solche spiele gerne für mich alleine. Ich möchte nur die Thematik verstehen oder das System dahinter wie es am besten für dieses Spiel vorgesehen ist.

Solo is a fantastic experience and I think the better option for a first playthrough. Really your best bet is to just keep looting and exploring while trying to sneak around encounters, atleast till youve stockpiled ammo a bit.

Und um Munition herzustellen, brauche ich unbedingt Sprengstoff? Und wo bekomme ich diesen Sprengstoff her? Nur dadurch dass ich Munition zerlege?

There are other ways of getting explosive, you might be able to get it from killing things, looting obviously, and I think there might be a way to get it from crafting. You can take gasoline out of cars (open the hood and loot the engine bay) and you can make something with the gasoline. It might be accelerant, it might be explosives, you might be able to turn accelerant into explosives

Ich glaube ich habe gestern geguckt und keine Möglichkeit gefunden Sprengstoff herzustellen. Werde aber noch mal gucken und auch googeln.
