Starfield is a cosmos teeming with boundless opportunities and dangers. Whether you’re contending with the untamed aliens from distant planets or navigating the watchful gaze of interstellar authorities, your true companion in this adventure is your trusty firearm. But imagine a scenario where, despite having stockpiles of ammunition at your disposal, your weapon fails to work. Well, since you clicked on this article, it is likely that you are facing a similar issue and are, in fact, looking for a fix.
Talking more about the bug, it prevents players from being able to use their firearms even when they have ammunition in their inventory. This can be incredibly frustrating, especially during combat situations, as it renders the weapons useless. So, is this a bug, or rather, an in-game mechanic that many don’t know of? Keep reading for more details.
Starfield No Ammo Bug: Is there any fix yet
Unfortunately, as of now, there is no official fix for this issue. But that is not the end, as we have listed some tips and workarounds that might help you get rid of this pesky No Ammo bug. Remember that these are just potential fixes and are not guaranteed to work for everyone. So, don’t keep your hopes too high. Anyway, let’s get right into it.
Check the Ammo Type
Sometimes, players may have multiple types of ammunition in their inventory. In Starfield, there are various ammunition types, including .27 Caliber, .43 MI, .43 Ultramag, .45 Caliber, .50 Caliber, .50 MI Array, 1.5KV LZR Cartridge, 11mm Caseless, and many more. So, it’s crucial to ensure that the ammunition required for the gun you are using is actually available in your inventory. It may be that you do not have the correct ammo in your inventory, which is why your gun has no ammo to fire.
Drop/Re-Equip the Weapon
If you have the right ammo type but are still facing the error, the next thing you can do is drop your weapon and then pick it up again. This can sometimes reset the issue and allow you to use your firearm. Do this a couple of times and see if this simple trick fixes the issue for you.
Reload a Previous Save
If re-equipping the weapon does not solve the No Ammo bug, consider reloading a previous save. Of course, this means that you will have to sacrifice some of your in-game progress. Still, you can try to reload a previous save in which the bug didn’t exist and then start from there. Also, make sure to save the game as frequently as possible so that you don’t lose much progress in case you run into this bug again.
Restart the Game
Upon reloading a previous save, if you find that the bug is still active, closing the game and reopening it might resolve the issue temporarily. We know it sounds simple, but it is indeed an effective method to try. So go ahead and restart Starfield. If you want to go the extra mile, restart your system.
Complete Other Quests and Check Again
It is possible that it is a bug that occurs during a specific quest. Some players have reported that after completing a few quests and activities, the bug disappeared. This workaround might require some patience, but it’s worth a try if other methods fail.
Wait for Patch
Well, Starfield’s full release went live recently after being in the Early Access period for a few days. We also have not received any patches or updates after its full release. So, we can hope for the same to happen in the near future, resolving this bug and numerous other pesky bugs. Still, this is just speculation and should be taken with a pinch of salt.
And there you have it; that is all the information we have to share on this matter. We hope all your doubts have been cleared. For more gaming reads like this, make sure to follow DigiStatement. Also, while we are on the topic of Starfield, here is a guide on removing weapon mods in the game.
