How come we dont have a { GRENADE LAUNCHER } mod for the AK ot tactical assault rifle ?

[Dies Fourth]

We have grenades, we have the rifles, we have a weapon modding system, we have the assault shotgun.

Why dont we have a weapon mod or stand alone grenade launcher ?

Good question. Would be cool. Sort of as the higher tier after explosive arrows/bolts.

Could be a whole new perk " Granadier " that grows in damage and accuracy and reload time

That would be great and hopefully it will be added eventually. It could easily function like a weapon light mod or laser sight where pressing F will switch between bullets or the underbarrel launcher. It'd pull ammo from your supply of grenades/contact grenades and you would have to reload it after every shot.

Except underslung launchers don't use 'regular' grenades (as the ones you mention, and which we have in the game now), as far as I know. 40mm (or such) HE and other types would have to be made, me thinks.

Could also add 'launchable' smoke grenades and flares while at it. To attract/distract zombos.

that would be sick ngl
but you will have better luck asking modders for that

This is true. And it would be likely that if they did add a mod for this in the game, they would also add dedicated 40mm rounds for it as well. But I feel like from a gameplay perspective, it would be more convenient and have the bonus of freeing up a slot on the toolbar so you don't have to throw them. Isn't that the whole purpose of having a launcher? I feel like it's sometimes acceptable to sacrifice realism for better gameplay.

A grenade launcher is just a less precise rocket launcher.... And as mentioned before, explosive arrows. So we already have 3 ways to throw explosives. Or 4, are dynamites still in game?

Grenades can be lobbed or banked off of corners unlike rockets and arrows. And having an automatic rifle and a grenade launcher in one weapon adds to the convenience. If anything, more options can't hurt.

Rocket launcher is line of sight, a grenade launcher can be shot onto the tops of roofs via an arc. Over obstacles not straight at them, never used 1 IRL but seen videos and enough movies to know exactly what the HUGE differences are between them and basically an RPG.

That seems debatable, whether using a radial menu to change the ammo type on your assault rifle from bullets to grenades is actually more convenient than flipping to a different belt slot with hand grenades.
