I don't agree with this at all. If the rest of the game is done well I don't think a single person who would have bought it is going to look at gameplay footage and say "What no iron sights? Screw that game". Because Planetside already offers something no other FPS does, the massive scale and persistent environment. THAT's why people are going to play it, there's no need to copy features out of other shooters just for the sake of attracting players. Especially if those features don't fit in with the rest of the gameplay.
Anyway. Since this game is big on customization I think the easiest solution is to add various options to control aiming, one being iron sights, and then let players choose the style that works best for them. It should be easy to give them all comparable advantages and disadvantages.
