So yes, the Pacific ocean is PE 4 blue.

...but not always and definitely not everywhere in the Pacific. ROW had a variety of hues from very light to very dark...
Does PE4 change with exposure, filtration, atmospheric conditions, location, etc. or does it remain that intense blue? I've just returned to SH4 from a year off and am still trying to catch up on the changes. So far I haven't seen much color change in the first mission and the screens that others have submitted seem to be the same blue without much variance. I think the shot of Mindoro Island is a fare depiction of what the conditions are probably like around Luzon.
Everytime I boot up in PE 4 I imagine swimming in the water and coming out covered in blue dye. For me it's distracting and takes away from the realism. I prefer ROW, at least for the color of the water. Haven't really looked at the other parts of PE yet so can't comment on them.
Has anyone used ROW with SH4 1.5? I'll probably just try it and see what happens. If it doesn't work, I think I'll be going back to 1.4 and ROW.
