Max Ammo

"JUUUUICE!"

- Tank Dempsey, after getting the Max Ammo Powerup.

Max Ammo is a power-up in the Call of Duty: World at War Nazi Zombies game mode. It is represented in-game by a Machine Gun's ammo box, which emits an eerie green glow. The power-up, as the name suggests, gives all players the maximum ammunition possible to obtain for whatever weapon the players are carrying. It is the only power-up that doesn't effect the point counter.

Finding Max Ammo
Max Ammo is found by killing a Zombie that carries the power-up. There is no way to tell which zombie is carrying which power-up. When the zombie is killed, an ammo box will float in the air for about 30 seconds before disappearing. To claim the ammo, run through the power-up. As this happens, the Demon will scream "Max Ammo!" and the words Max Ammo will appear in white on the screen.

An easy alternative way to get Max Ammo is to wait for Hellhounds to spawn. The last dog in a round will always contain Max Ammo. After the last dog is killed, it is advised that everyone reloads before claiming the power-up, so even more ammo can be obtained.

Be aware, that if the icon starts flashing, the power-up will disappear in about 10 seconds.

Shi No Numa

 * It is common to find zombies in the early rounds containing Max Ammo, therefore it is advised to let some zombies into the hut. This way, if the zombies happen to have Max Ammo, the pistol can be used much longer, and no one will have to buy an Arisaka or a Gewehr 43, which both become extremely ineffective after Round 7.
 * If you are camping in one of the huts and are in need of Ammo, you should never use the PTRS-41 to snipe because there could be a zombie that drops a Max Ammo far away. It is almost certain that someone without a microphone will run to the ammo, get killed, and then the rest of the team will be on their own.
