I do like this loading screen, but I do see the point. However, having blown ballast several times from 100m whilst ordering surface at ahead flank, my boat does shoot out of the water as much as in the image, or very, very nearly, so it's realistic enough for me in the SH3 world! (It's not like I can test it with a real U-boat, so I've chosen to accept that it's an extreme-but-possible case!)

I do like the regular loading screen, but this full circle one is a bit more exciting and dynamic. I very much like the 'unofficial' "No Petrol to Murmansk" loading screen too (forgot the artist's name without searching, sorry!), even if it says "GWX 1.04", as it was made before GWX 2.0 was announced.
