Dinosaurs Indoraptor Genes

[Indoraptor27]

The Indominus rex got a camoflage gene. However, the Indoraptor a hybrid that was stated in the film to be a prototype has no unique upgrades. I had some interesting ideas and will back them up with cannon evidence.
Idea 1: Camoflage Gene: The Indominus rex had a camoflage gene. The Indoraptor is its clone. It would make sense to have camoflage. Now some argue that it didn't camoflage in the movie. It is possible that the extra Velociraptor DNA diluted the cuttlefish DNA. However, if that is the case then giving it a little extra cuttlefish DNA should allow it to camoflage. And imagine having Indoraptor camoflaged in your park. The goats (and possibly guests) won't stand a chance.
Idea 2: Intelligence Gene: Our current Indoraptor doesn't seem much smarter then any other dino. Ours needs a lot more intelligence. I mean the one in the movie was smarter and it was only a prototype. I think ours should haw new guest kill animation (in addition to the old one) with an intelligence gene. It would be an escaped Indoraptor going to sleep somewhere full of guests. Then as guests tiptoed by, it would wake up and snatch one. They also should break out when the player hasn't been looking at their enclosure. There are a lot of intelligent things they could do.
Idea 3: Pack Hunting Gene: Indoraptor is over half raptor. However, it seems antisocial. With some modification it could be a pack hunter. I don't just mean tolerating it's own kind and socializing. I mean herding herbivores into a kill zone, working together to take down a sauropod, or even pack fighting (one weakens target and surrenders and another finnishes it of).
How do any of these soumd. Be brutally honest.

The Indominus Rex is as if not more intelligent than the Indoraptor, she just isn't small enough to do what the Indoraptor is shown doing. Also the Raptors, all the smartness that the Indominus and the Indoraptor had came from the raptors, but you don't see them doing anything smary in the game

You said be brutally honest so I will, mildy (I guess)
1. One of your ideas was the 'Intelligence Gene'. Why add an "Intelligence Gene' if the Indoraptor is naturally smart. So NO for me.
2. Another one of your ideas was a new kill animation. I get that the current kill animations are redundant, but why add a kill animation based on the Indoraptor's Intelligence? And why would the guests be dumb enough to approach the Indoraptor's sleeping body? So another NO from me.
3. Another one is the pack hunting. I guess it could work, saying that she has mostly raptor DNA but why separateit into another gene? But until they do that for the natural pack dinosaurs, they won't do it for the Indoraptor. MAYBE I guess.

Thats all the criticizing things I can say.

I'm not sure if these may be possible because of two reasons from what I've gathered.

Firstly, any dinosaur that has been portrayed in the films with certain special abilities can be added into the game because the game focuses on lore elements of the movies. The Indoraptor portrayed to have no pack hunting or camouflage neither in the films or its backstory, so they wouldn't have to add these characteristics for it.

Secondly, if new genes like these were to be added for hybrids, they would have to be introduced in a very special way that isn't generic dinosaur packs or free updates. Generally speaking, these kind of special new game features are added through special kinds of big DLC to tie in with the game's campaign stories and lores to make them even more special. I don't think they will expand any current major DLC expansion packs either, and I think this may make the Indominus rex in-game feel les special that two dinosaurs will have the same thing, and they wanted the Indominus to be more special in-game in both development and in-universe story wise.

(P.S. I really don't see an "intelligence" gene or your detailed description of it being a thing because it doesn't make any sense in regards as to how the game is designed.)

I'm very VERY excited for Jurassic World 3. I'm sure there'll be another fun and great free update just like the fallen kingdom one, or maybe paid, I don't really care. All I care about is the future of this game.

First of all, the Indoraptor is not a clone of the Indominous Rex. It's a completely different monster. And there's no evidence that the Indo is able to camoflauge. If this is implemented, I would have the camoflauge gene for the Carnotaurus as well, since it's the original camoflauge dinosaur from the book. Hell even the Raptors could change color in the original storyline.

You want to make the Indo smarter, but the guests even dumber. You expect the people to see it as a pet? Hahaha

Packhunting should be implemented, but it should be for the dinosaurs that actually stayed in packs... Raptors, Dilo's etc.

Funnily enough there's almost no evidence for pack hunting in dinosaurs. Only really for Albertosaurus there might be some evidence that it might have lived in larger groups. But even then it's not exactly evidence for pack hunting.

Indeed. I was just thinking canon-wise.

And of course some dinosaurs must have hunted in packs. Especially the ones lacking in size. But I agree, that we have very little evidence to support it.

JP/JW canonwise, yes.

But no, not "of course" or "must". It's entirely possible that there was zero pack hunting in all dinosaurs. If there is no evidence for it, there's no reason to believe it. It's just an unsupported claim without evidence. Smaller predators could just have hunted smaller prey.

The fact that the animals had to be fossilized together is of course very unlikely, so of course the evidence will be minimal. We don't know anything about these animals so everything is pretty much assumptions by drawing parallels to our own wildlife. I would be incredibly surprised if dinosaurs which roamed for almost 200 million years, didn't have any traits like the animals today and didn't utilize each others potential for hunting behaviour.
