I was actually able to beat this level, which seriously starves the player of ammo. Had I not accidentally stumbled upon the map's only secret (which doesn't seem to have any clues going for it), I probably would not have been able to stand a chance of surviving.

You don't get to enjoy the spoils of the secret for free, though, without first having to guess between two paths, one of which cheaply kills you off in a trap. No visual clues to help you there either.

To be honest, I kind of enjoyed the ammo starvation, forcing me to strategize: hide behind corners, utilize monster infighting, make wild dashes for megahealths and ammo crates to allow myself to once again fight back.

Not sure if I'd still want to go back playing this unbalanced map. I definitely had luck helping me out in my first playthrough. Things could definitely have ended up a lot more frustrating than that.
