I'm not sure if some quality was lost in the upload to YouTube... but it looks terrible to me... something akin to a tech demo from 10 years ago.

I suspect the benefit here is performance. Sure, it looks pre-crysis but if it can be implemented without a huge team of artists and runs on low end hardware then it's a big deal.

The waves look ok, but the wake effects were fairly terrible imho. I'm no game developer, but I think waves like that could be done with an animated mesh, they don't need to be dynamic.

its the first step to not just being able to jump into a river in COD or battledfield, and be hidden after a 1 second effect

the indestructible phonebooth and sign at 3:50 and beyond stood out most for me. I'd like to see a boat on the open waters tho, rocking with those dynamic waves..

When your playing the game I think you won't notice the changes because you will be to busy fighting and staying alive.
