For more exact locations and images read below:
Plasma Cutter location
The Plasma Cutter is virtually impossible to miss as you will find it on a bench during your first trip through the Ishimura after things go wrong early in the game. It is your core weapon and what you will rely on the most
Pulse Rifle location
The Pulse Rifle is also unmissable, found on a dying security officer on the tram station at the medical department. This person will die after you meet them, allowing you to pick the weapon up.
Ripper location
When needing to refuel the engines in chapter 3, you can find the Ripper on a dead soldier in the machine shop as you head down the slope.
Flamethrower location
The Flamethrower appears when igniting the engines in chapter 3. This weapon is embedded within the wall in a person’s hands. The wall is overgrown with Necromorph material and virtually impossible to miss.
Contact Beam location
When you need to reroute power from the Mining Administration in chapter 4, you can find the small Records Office tucked away on its own on floor 2 of the ship in the Bridge. In here is the Contact Beam but you will need an upgraded Dead Space Security Clearance.
Line Gun location
As you meet the Regenerator in chapter 5, you will find a maze of corridors in the emergency area. One small side room, Emergency Equipment Room, can be found on its own on the map, which houses the Line Gun.
Force Gun location
During chapter 6: Environmental Hazard you will eventually go after the first Wheezer. On the way, you will find the West Seeding Room A, which has the Force Gun.
