will a great white shark jump out at you while you swim around?

If you leave the cage, yes the Great White will attack you and kill you.

you cant leave the cage lol..

[ThEdUDe]

no im talking about swiming around in the other scenes. does a shark come out at all?

1. Apparently you can get out of the cage by teleporting, I've seen it done on Youtube.
2. Yes I encountered a great white in the blue sharks scenario, I swam away from the blue sharks to explore the ocean and came across one.
first he didn't really seem to know what to do with me (unlike the angry one from the cage scenario) but after 10 seconds he suddenly turned around and bit me in the butt.

And I'm not sure but I think I saw a great white in the dinosaur scenario thingy.

There are wild Great White Sharks in the Blue Shark habitat (there are "beware of shark" signs when you are close). You are normally safe in this habitat unless you swim out into open water.

Megalodon (largest shark and predator in history, basically Jaws) can be found in the Mosasaurus habitat. Again, they will attack near surface in open water.

Thats cool! Could you make a scene in the future meant to scare you? Sorta like the shark attack game for psvr

Not sure if this was intentional(probably was) but you can get out of the cage by turning your camera near the edge, but when you get out.. you better hope that shark isn't too close. So terrifying

One vote might not count for much, but I'd really love if there was a way to switch the Great White's and the Megalodon's aggressive behaviour off. I love sharks and while watching the Blue Sharks circle idly or swimming along with a Whale Shark has been a spectacular experience Ocean Rift has made possible, for me, I'd love to do the same with the Great White or the Megalodon (without risking getting immediately turned to dinner).

I mean, by the time we're swimming in a Mosasaurus habitat, my suspension of disbelief has been stretched far enough to very easily accept the concept of a shark not attacking me (especially as nothing else in the game does). If there was some game setting / mode that would make this possible, I'd love it. I love Ocean Rift and it would enrich the experience even more for me.

Besides, while I can't speak for Megalodon (of course), there's plenty of people who swim with Great Whites in open water. Yes, they're experts, but again, it's not unheard of. Great Whites, after all, usually only attack humans in cases of mistaken identity; we're not on their list of prey.

All I'm saying is ... in a game that involves time travel (of a sort) and rings that explode into fireworks (most literally), and a game that has such a strong focus on education, exploration, awe, and wonder, I think an OPTIONAL setting that perhaps stops the sharks from registering your presence and through that stops them from attacking - so I can admire them in peace, too - might be justifiable.
