 I just loaded up my first game to test out some of the new goodies, and when I got to my HMG, I tried out the new doom mode business.
 
 The very first thing that I noticed is how artificial it looks. Your gun instantly hops from being at your side to dead center, like a deadly boner ready to strike. Also aiming in doom mode is severely reduced, or maybe it's just me. It just feels like I have a LOT less control while zooming, which isn't necessarily a bad thing. Hopping in and out of scope looks completely ridiculous, just tap the trigger a few times and watch. That definitely needs to be fixed.
 
 It just looks really awkward. The functionality is ok I guess, just...the giant death shlong seems kinda....fake.

 You don't like the way Doom did it? It was great!
 
 Joking aside, I agree, doom mode feels awkward

 I think doom mode is just ridiculous. It makes zero sense. They've made ARs more realistic with their iron sights, what exactly is the logic behind planting your face next to the barrel of a gatling gun? For starters; you'd probably have to climb over and straddle a HMG just to acheive the Doom pov it gives. It honestly feels like it was put in the game for some nostalgia value.

 It's different for sure, but it offers better angle to aim with than the than the hip fire mode so head shots are now easier to get. Wont be using Doom in CQB but this has put assault and burst variants in a good position.

 I don't think ARs are more realistic with iron sights, I thought having a camera on your gun that directly links to your suit optics was very fitting and realistic for the setting. Still downloading Chromosome, but this Doom-mode could work that way also.

 the only reason to zoom in with the HMG was because it stabilized aiming, especially medium-long range. This is no longer the case, in fact ADS makes it more out of control and makes hip firing more accurate even when from long range.

 Personally, I really don't like the new ADS camera, more for the transition that is used than anything else (it's far too fast). However, the camera also doesn't make sense in it's current position, because for what reason would you put your face down next to a firing HMG?

 Pretty sure you aren't sticking your head next to the barrel, your just looking through the gun camera, personally I like it and I'm sure my aim improves when I use it.
