The weather is a determining factor of course. Sure would be a plus if weather dictated wave action and sea visuals.

Anyway, I can go with the water however it's presented... since I'm not in the water or that near the surface most of the time. If I were looking out a port hole I'd think different.



Oleg has stated that the sea conditions are tied to the weather engine in game. There are a couple of other shots released where you can see white caps on the water. So maybe we, who spend much time at sea might even approve of them.
