Too be honest I agree with this sentiment. The developers are putting a ton of work into making the setting of Planetside 2 beautiful an immersive along with it's mechanics. Iron sights add to that but can detract from it also because there is never a reason NOT to use iron sights except to move from point a to point b. And in the the9 video the muzzle flash that the weapons seem to have almost blind you when in iron sights.
I think Planetside should use it but you should be penalized enough to where you aren't using it for spray and pray type combat that is the mainstay of the game. It should be used as an attempt to pick off someone over a distance however, much like the bullpup and the 552 from counterstrike, but without the zoom and scope.
