Grenades

The only projectile Grenades in Team Fortress 2 are those fired from the Demoman's Grenade launcher. The Jarate weapon functions somewhat like a grenade, though it is never officially referred to as such (and also does not bounce). The Soldier does utilises a grenade for an explosive taunt, but does not throw them.

They were a strong feature of Team Fortress Classic, and were scrapped during the early testing stages of Team Fortress 2. Developers have revealed this choice was due to gameplay concerns with how they were used, such as Spamming, certain potential exploits, and general over-reliance on them as a whole.

Each class was set to have primary and secondary grenades, with the primary grenades being Frag grenades and secondary grenades possessing more specialized functions. There is still code pertaining to thrown grenades in the server_i486.so file

Several grenade types are modeled, some of which are updated versions of those found in Team Fortress Classic and some of which are new designs. Sounds for thrown grenades can also be found in the game files.

There is also a file for a Crafting item called a "Grenade Token" found here. What this means for TF2 and Grenades in the future is currently unknown.
