"As for the ocean, I'd say they both the same kind of... And in both I really hate to see clouds and airplanes being reflected so nicely on completely disturbed water... Looks nice, but VERY unrealistic"

i noticed that normally you dont see the sun as an sphere in the sea

but how small does it light have to be so it gets bounced off staright?

I think FSX is great. The graphics are far below Cliffs but most everything else is superior...overall immersion, stability, the missions, SOUND, etc. I am a huge fan of combat sims but FSX is the best overall sim I've ever played. If you have not experienced FSX you should really get it.

If a light is to small chances are you probably don't see it reflect, or merely just a spark for an instant. Talking about my experience anyways.
And even when the sea is extremely calm, there are ALWAYS gonna be little waves every now and then which disforms the reflection. I have already seen lights (from a tower/ building ) being reflected off seemingly calm sea as a long line accross the sea. But anyways my point is: It looks nice, but it sure as heck ain't realistic at ALL!
