I feel the exact same way..... I wondered if this could be modeled correctly? This part of the game has always seemed off and unrealistic. I remember on deployment I would go to the back of the ship to relax...and seeing the slow rollers... The open ocean is hardly ever flat as there are always disturbances from somewhere. Interesting if they/we can decode the wave structure to a point of modeling open ocean as well as coastal waters realistically.
