These are minor, but still annoying:

1) Bow waves and prop wash from stationary and/or sinking ships. It's a bit weird seeing a ship dead as a stone still pushing a bow wave and kicking up a prop wash, especially when the stern is in the air and props out of the water!!

2) Hearing propeller sounds from dead stopped ships. Again just a little weird. Especially when you've blown the props off a ship yet still hear the thrumming caviaton of screws!

3) Visible streaks of fired rounds. I mean, c'mon! Deck guns (U-boat or warships) didn't fire tracer rounds for gosh sakes! And even .30 and .50 calibers didn't fire 100% tracers either.

I am, though, overjoyed that GWX 2 got rid of flags once a ship slipped under. T'was quite ridiculous seeing the flags still merrily waving underwater, especially when they did it bass-akwards to the direction the ship was sinking.
