crash/floater gun??

corbinizaac · July 2015

I think there should be a gun that shoots floaters and crash in subnautica so that you don't have to get close to a preditor yo stick a floater on it.

Moved to Subnautica forums.

is that not already in game?

That would essentially be a lethal weapon.

Such a thing has been suggested before.

doesnt the repulsor already do this though?

Shooting crash would make it lethal, but shooting floaters...that has more utility to it than anything, especially if you need to recover your cyclops cause ya derped

I have to say, I like the idea of a Floater gun, They could just change the Floaters slightly so they stick to things you shoot them at using the Propulsion cannon.

used as a demolition technique?

It sounds like the Blunderbus concept. Type it up on google images Subnautica in front and you'll find a gun that fires both floaters and crashes. In the concept art that I looked at it also has a gaspopod grenade that you can build and fire.

@Nautical_Nick I don't think that was concept art. I remember seeing that idea months ago on the forums, but it was just an idea that somebody came up with and simply drew it. Here it is.

i was thinking about SN-concept of non-lethal weapons. This is what i came up with: a Gun that can fire anykind of round object scavenged from the ocean, like floaters, crash-fish or Gasopod-Granades (u need to craft them) which is the second idea!

- floater-ammo will stick to surfaces and enemies render them harmless and slowly float them to the surface (would be awesome to use on big predators)
- crash will explode and stun enemies AoE (they dont kill, maybe small fish)
- gasopod-granades will cloud the area hit and blind enemies caught in the AoE

my sketch of the "Blunderbuss" and "Gasopod-Grenade":

YES! That's exactly it! I think that it's pretty cool.

I like the idea, but think it's a tad redundant. We have gasopod torpedoes now, and the propulsion cannon can shoot floaters, and i believe crashes if you're fast enough (not 100% sure)

Well, here it is.

crash/floater gun??
