Lethal Weaponry

As far as the game goes(my current knowledge is of the Xbox 1 build), there are only 2 lethal weapons and 2 potentially lethal ones, being the knife and gas torpedos for lethal, and the propulsion cannon and repulsion cannon. Considering that the game is underwater, for the most part, it would be great to see harpoon guns and little CO₂ propulsed dart guns. I would, however, make these useless or almost useless above water. My thoughts for ammunition for the harpoon gun would be standard harpoons, harpoons with a rope to maybe hit a Stalker with and swim with as it drags you along, and diamond hardened harpoons. The harpoon gun shoots once before manually reloading(manual to help with roped harpoons). The CO₂ dart gun, held like a pistol, would have 3-4 barrels, meaning 3-4 before reloading. The darts would do less damage than the harpoons. CO₂ tanks would be needed to refill both. The dart special ammo would be the standard dart, sleeping dart, poison dart, and tracker dart. The first 2 don't need explaining, but the poison dart would cause damage over time, and the tracker dart could go with the scanner room or Cyclops. Also, I think the repulsion cannon should be more like a shotgun effect instead. Also, maybe an explosive torpedo for the Seamoth as well.

That, and the devs simply don't want a lot of lethal weaponry.
That is true, but I think at least the CO₂ dart gun could have the things mentioned, such as the sleep dart and tracking darts, the other 2 lethal ones are just kinda there. Such as having the initial dart for modding the sleep, poison, and tracker, and the poison dart from rubbing a normal dart on a Rabbit Ray, which has poisonous skin.
Not that you need any of that, given the current tools are sufficient enough.
For the big stuff: Stasis Rifle+knife, and/or Torpedoes.
For everything else, ram it with your seamoth.
so you want deadly weapons at the start of the game?
m8 do you even know what game you're playing?
So you just want to make it mid tier for different reasons?
That makes it harder to get than the Stasis Rifle tbh
I would just want it to be a little more accessible is all, instead of finding fragments, or maybe even find the full items near the main wreckage or something.
Quoted wrong person btw, this is for dealwithitdog
It's not in a very inaccessible region now. Bone sharks are easy to avoid, and you just need pipes if you don't have enough air to make it early game. Besides, I wouldn't call it a "standard survival blueprint" because that's all you start with.
It would be nice if we could use Stalker Teeth as harpoons in the Prop Cannon
You're not that hype about scanning everything then?
