This has been requested from the very beginning. I wouldn't hold my Breath this Rifle will make it into the Game anymore.

Well I hope it does. Be nice to have a configurable .357 and the Winchester .308 (modded to look like an 1866) Stampede be configurable as well.

...um, the starting assault rifle is the 416. It’s got crappy stats, but it’s there from the very start.

I can check to see whether there's any plans for this! As per usual, with all new weapon requests I have to be clear that licensing can be an issue.

I'm not a firearms expert by any means but I believe the P416 is distinct from the HK416 in a few ways. Please feel free to correct me if I'm wrong, though.

p416 =/= h&k 416

Good request... A lot of relevant SOF weapons are missing from Wildlands. Here's an unreleased HK 416 "DEVGRU" I worked with a team of modders to add to Raven Shield. Great community (check out ALLR6) adding cool and relevant stuff to an old game. I recommend you check that out if you're upset like I've been for the past year that UBI is releasing M16s, "predator" weapons, and "tribal skins" to a game based on a US special operations team yet key SOF relevant equipment is missing (thank god we got the panoramic NVGs)... I also developed an unreleased MK18 Mod 1 (I added it to my private game) for Raven Shield because I was so irritated that it was missing from Wildlands... I don't get why we can't SBR the M4 (essentially making a mod 0). It took me like 2 weeks to develop an entire MK18 (including coded weapon behavior, aligning sights, modeling, etc...) but the paid devs at ubisoft refuse to add a short barrel to an M4... it's baffling. I think they did a great job but didn't really do enough research into what operators are actually using in the last few years. Either that or its just licensing issues that freelance modders like myself don't have to deal with... If this game ever opens up to modding, the community will save it.

HK 416 "DEVGRU":





MK18 Mod 1 Gameplay Video (notice the top mount PEQ 15 which can't be done in Wildlands, it takes 15 minutes to do this in 3DS max and configure any mounting location. The capability to top and side mount multiple attachments is oddly missing from Wildlands... Is that a licensing issue too? Like I said I'm an amateur, unpaid modder and it took me 15 minutes at most to do this as well as configure weapon tags...)

Would be awesome to see a HK416, but also a configurable LVOA-C. We've already got two in game, but both cannot be configured.

You'd think they'd jump at the chance for a little bit of alternative advertising, but it just doesn't work out that way, huh? -- Like, I understand that they want their products to be taken seriously, however gaming is a serious industry too. Certain games even become training tools. Strange that gaming has still got this stigma attached, in 2018.
