What purpose does MGR have after Polis (=last shop)?

[ErzPaladin]

Hi,

title says almost everything. On my last playthrough I was wondering why I could still find MGR in D6 (even higher amounts 100-200 MGR at least).

Is there some special usage for MGR after visiting Polis Station? Like keeping it for a 2nd playthrough?

Try loading it into an assault rifle and firing it at stuff. It apparently does a good bit more damage than the regular rounds - actually sets stuff on fire. But it has no monetary value beyond that point.

Bingo.

There's no mechanical reason to hold back on the MGA past Polis, since there's no shops left. Just hold R, see that shiny brass go into your gun, and how enemies start melting.

Hold R? And how does it work on a controller?

That's kinda disappointing.

Never played any part of this series except Exodus with a controller, and that one got rid of that mechanic, but whatever your reload button is. Hold it down, and you switch between using dirty & military grade ammo.
