if IL-2 1946 can do it...

I've lived in Kent or near the north east coast one way or another all my life and to say that the sea is this colour or that just doesn't work. It changes dependent on weather conditions and can do that very quickly. its unrealistic to expect the game to do that but there are areas (Thames estuary seems relevant here) that have common characteristics (silty) that could be done better.

I have sat on tops of the Cliffs in Dover on a summer afternoon and the sea was such a vivid shade of blue if it were replicated in the game everyone would call it unreal, go up to Capel le Ferne and its a different colour there and go the few miles down to Folkestone Warren and its deep green. True nature is currently beyond what any game can accurately portray for the time being at least.
