Since season 12 started, I've been experiencing awful visual bugs with the ocean water. I have a video linked at the bottom. My friends hadn't even been noticing until I pointed it out. It just got way worse with this gilded voyage update. It's insufferable now. I say it's nearly gamebreaking because it's preventing me from boarding enemy ships, disorienting me in the water and not letting me see enemy ships or players, and not letting me interact with my mermaid by pulling it away from me. I took a video and told my buddy to take over on the ship quick so I could quick jump in the water and immediately showcase the bug. It's constant and so much worse now after this last patch. It actually happened when I was on the harpoon and the game suddenly thought I was underwater. I think it's the visual of the wave peaks not being synced with where they actually are. I'm no game dev so idk. I just saw our loot pile from a sunken ship floating above the waves and sinking under them in a way that looked like the visuals of the water were out of sync with where the water actually was. That's all I got. That and this video
I should also note, im holding "Swim Up" throughout the entire clip. The game won't let me go above the waves.
Nearly Game Breaking Visual Bug with Waves
@secret-vveapon Yeah it's made boarding and hitting shots while in the water a pain, it's like being stuck between an underwater sky and the surface itself, It's more than annoying.
Lost an hg game because of this the other day, whole first half of the fight our ship was visually underwater leaving us to guess where to shoot (still getting hit markers and landing blind shots but as we couldn't see the other ship from underwater or enemy boarders coming up we end up with a surprise boarder along with the other ship pulling closer which lead to a quick sink that we couldn't do anything to prevent.
