Unrealistic issue
ORCA do not attack people. The rare chance of this happening is only in zoos or Sea world. In the Oceans Orca do not attack humans.

The island is alien im sure that would effect anything living. We could kill all the orcas for lamp fuel.

Correct. The devs are too lazy and greedy to add more marine life however hence it will most likely never be addressed

I don't think it has anything to do with being lazy or greedy, the focus of the game isn't on the ocean. There isn't even much space out there. If you swim out you notice that you reach the end of the map very quickly, why cram that little bit of space full of marine life?

It looks decent enough for a "background" imo, which is effectively what it is.

Orcas? Where? I only saw one shark attacking me.

Go around to the other side of the island, you'll see them in the water. I've tried to chase them down to get a better look but I never manage to see one other than when their tails come out of the water shortly.

There are some beaches on the south of the island at the end of one of the only rivers down there, near the compound bow bunker, you can see them there.

If we are talking about digsite B then it's west, not south. Pay attention to where the sun rises and where it sets

Could be but on every site that shows a map, it's to the south of the map the way they have it rotated. I have no idea where the sun rises or sets in the game.

Bottom left where that river meets the ocean is where you can see them. Walk along the beach to the right towards the two seperate islands.

Unrealistic? maybe.

There are a couple of dead orcas at the water's edge. This is quite close to where the machete can be found.
Virginia came up to me and pointed out to the water, so I started swimming out, and that is when I spotted the swimming orcas, and they were jumping out of the water, but also a shark started attacking me lol, so had to swim back to safety.
Flying over the area in the hang glider I haven't seen them as yet.

one word immersion, making the world feel alive instead of just dead

One word, performance, there have got to be limits somewhere. Appreciate the fact that you have what looks like a never ending ocean instead of an invisible wall and a message that says " you are leaving the playable area".

Have you seen what under the ocean looks like in GTA V? It actually looks very good, nobody ever goes there.
