Any ADS weapons in game?
I just picked it up and grabbed my Bolter, then checked the controls, and noticed their is no ADS (Aim Down Sight), button on the control scheme. I mean it's not a big deal, I grew up on Wolf 3D, Blake Steel, Doom, etc. But it's a nice modern convenience in FPS's. I'm just curious.

Since the RMB is assigned to the chainsword by default, it should come as no surprise that there are no ironsights.

Doom has ADS on by default. Disappointed that Boltgun didn't have ADS.

I'm not aware of any DOOM game that has ADS. There's ADS with certain guns in Brutal DOOM though.

You're talking about a game where you can't even aim up or down unless it's modded.

Really... he just means that the model of the Doom gun is actually in ADS as standard view while this game you see the model on the side holding it from the hip.

So in Doom its not a real ADS as we know it in modern days but asking for this feature is a bit confusing yeah :) i actually also never thought about the Doom gun or all the oldskool shooters in the Doom engine for that matter is ADS but its actually an interesting now that i think about it because it kinda is but its also not haha its just how the engine was designed and the limitations of rendering back then that it was like that.

I disagree that the classic centered weapon view is meant to represent that the DOOM guy is in ADS. If it was the case, the barrel of the weapon wouldn't be pointed up but would rather be obfuscated by the butt and sight of the gun.

As far as I know Space Marines have a helmet interface connected to their gun so they don´t need ADS.

It's unclear if Space Marines need to ADS as they are shown to both ADS and shoot from the hip. I personally hate not aiming down the sites because it just seems stupid that you're going to fire every gun like Rambo every time you shoot it. ADS adds immersion to shooters and should be included in every shooter, boomer or not. And I grew up on Wolf 3D, Doom, Blake Stone, Strife and Halo.

It's following the classic doom formula, so no
