The remaining factories that were working day and night endlessly couldn't keep up with the consumption of hot weapons. Furthermore, these weapons showed extremely poor results in combat. As many of the important cities were under siege by those mutated beasts, mankind's only option was to rely on more primitive weaponry. There were times when one's body was more useful than a hot weapon.
