Last level, twofaced in the room with the fuse
I am left with 4 shotgun shells and 6 bullets in my handgun, if I enter the room, the room gets locked and that ammo isn't enough to bring it down even to the first stage and I don't see any ammo creates in the room nor no enemies are spawning, so how I am supposed to kill the boss. Don't tell me, they specifically spawned that stuff to sell, I think it was a cpu worth of 1000 credits, so I can purchase ammo at the station in order to kill it.

That would be the worst game design ever.

My only guess is the reason they gave you the credits rather than scattering ammo in the rooms prior, is in case you, the player, would like your choice of ammo to craft (in scenarios where you have multiple of the optional guns).

But yeah, this encounter was the weirdest for me as I tend to never buy ammo in these types of games, preferring to spend the resources on upgrades. Also since most every game with "survival horror" mechanics tends to give you ammo and healing items prior to a boss/mini-boss encounter. While this time they just gave us money to buy ammo.

I played on MaxSec and didn't upgrade the guns at all; focused my upgrades on Baton and GRP. These bosses are massive ammo drains for unupgraded guns, so I ended up in the same situation as you a couple times.

The way I got through the fights is to wedge myself into a corner or against a wall so I could stay in melee range and actually hit him with my baton after dodging. It's only safe to do that after certain attacks of his and it involves a lot of repositioning, but it can be done.

This isn't the specific fight you were talking about, but it's a fight where I had to finish him with melee and it shows basically what you have to do. Maybe it'll help.

Regardless, a lot of this games combat is very poorly thought out.

It was their intent to purchase the ammo via that placed loot in the room the station, because autosave is specifically placed before the door, once you pass them, they get locked.

So yeah, I purchased the ammo and killed it. Such design, very smart. They could have placed several boxes instead there with ammo like before the first twofaced fight on the platform.

I played the game on the highest difficulty. I faced this same problem. I had to use the kinetic wrist and kill it with a box. I picked up a box and hit it for about 15 minutes to get past it.
