Runehamster: Stupid rifles - how do they work, anyway?
I found one and have no ammo. It's just sitting in my storage mocking me -.-
Also, knife wielding looters are the scariest enemy I've seen yet. They don't look scary, but they seem to be invulnerable to melee blows (or it was glitching). I was doing the quest to clean out the guy's house for him in the city, and I died three times to that one jackass. Finally killed him by throwing a knife at him.
I did that quest with a pistol, actually. You're gonna want to deploy a bit of the old Gears tactics, though. It's how I cleaned out a LOT of places, like the market, etc. You sneak in, wait for an opening, then cap the people dumb enough to be caught out in the open. The people in the door will generally hang around it and attempt to return fire, but if you stay low and hit 'em when they're exposed, they'll go down one by one until you're done.
