The game files show two primary gang colors: blue and orange. The game was designed to cycle between the two colors of each territory owner.However, they were unsure whether the color change was an element of actual gameplay or merely a testing and debugging feature for developers. The game mode requires three owners, all of whom can be members of the same gang, to set up their territories at all times.Users' reactions to the discovery in GTA OnlinePlayers quickly responded to the Tweet, sharing their thoughts and questions about the canceled game mode.
