After a ship sinks, the game continues to depict intense fires beneath the surface. A properly handled magazine should not still be burning once the wreck reaches that depth, especially well after the original explosion. The criticism separates an impressive visual effect from the physical consequences of flooding a wreck. Magazine explosions and persistent fire need to be judged against compartment condition and submersion, rather than treated as interchangeable damage effects.

Should a sunken magazine still be burning?
A fire continuing deep below the waterline prompts a realism check on magazine explosions, flooding, and the condition of a submerged wreck.
