In terms of gameplay mechanics, old school zoom aiming achieves the same thing as ADS. Is getting to press your nose against virtual firearms really that important in a game about shooting werevolves and vampires?

I blame this on the proliferation of Call of Duty over traditional scifi and fantasy shooter franchises. You can fucking ADS on an assault rifle in Halo now visible-disgust

      You can pry my proper ironsights from my cold dead hands. I will go further to say counterstrike 2 is cowardly pandering to esports purists. They should have gone the route of making a better R6 siege without the garbo ubisoft hud shit.

          Also I appreciate trigger discipline discourse when it comes to little details like in the x files how Mulder has terrible trigger discipline belying his character as sort of a crank while Scully is the consummate professional with her firearm handling.

                  Okay but consider it is, hands down and without exception, the most important safety practice when handling a firearm. It should be hammered in to the heads of every person who might encounter a gun.

        This. I'm ok with older games without ironsights, doesn't distract me, but a modern one? Just put that damn thing on your game fuck dammit.

          It would be an utterly different game. It wouldn't be counter-strike at all.
