Personally, I really like the ironsights on the shotguns and rifles in Brutal Doom and Accessories To Murder, really makes the weapons come alive.

I seldom use the irons on the shotgun (though it's neat to have when taking potshots at an enemy up in an alcove, to make sure you score most of your shot onto him), but the rifle is INCREDIBLY handy with the ironsights/holosight, a soldiers weapon is a rifle, and it feels right to use a rifle like it's supposed to, aimed shots at a distance, and rapid fire at close range.

You could use it to snipe, but it's rarely powerful enough to drop any demonic enemy in one single shot. That said, the enemies are not at all defenseless, if you're without cover, revenants are a bitch (and that's true to vanilla Doom), and I find the chaingunner replacements in AtM are quite accurate enough to take you by surprise from a distance, too often am I hit by rifle fire without realizing there's a rifleman in a window over there, across the yard, and bullet impacts aren't even heard in AtM, so he can be pelting at you for a long while until he starts hitting you, and you don't even know where he is.

I really like AtM's aesthetics though.
