You can obtain a huge visual impact just bump mapping the water and then tessellate it, not a huge task here.

The main problem is tessellating planes and objects, and it´s the texture displacement caused by the tessellation, explained here :

It will mess panel lines for example, but there tech to fix this.

A recently AMD demo (Leo) showed Ptex and PRT Technology that is nothing but texture displacement correction by hardware, explained here :

http://developer.amd.com/samples/demos/pages/AMDRadeonHD7900SeriesGraphicsReal-TimeDemos.aspx[/url]

It was used to correct the texture of the face, shirt and the ears for example, all in real time.

So there still room for hope
Why? to have a flat surface tessellated? bump mapping does not alter geometry
