Also problem is described in THIS topic.

A dot can't be smaller than a pixel. Smaller resolutions gives you larger pixels. Therefore distant dots will always be larger at smaller resolutions.

I mean by that, that when hit either parts fly off, they start to burn, or sink, and the sinking happening at various speed from very fast to very slow. Also that a differance is made between a freighter and a tanker, meaning that a tanker will most likely burn intensively while sinking. As in IL2 all ships sank at the same speed, and all sank as if they where empty, no burning tankers or exploding munitions ships. Any chance we might see this in CoD?

Yes, yes, yes and yes.
