Game modes and scoring
The six modes use different objectives. Compare the win conditions below.
| Mode | Objective | What counts |
|---|---|---|
| Turf War | Capture and hold territory. | Your gang earns points from controlled territory. |
| GangBang | Fight as one of two rival gangs. | Team kills decide the result. |
| Chaos | Free-for-all combat. | The individual with the most kills wins. |
| Hit A Lick | Bring the opposing gang’s bag back to your hood. | The bag is the objective; your own bag also needs defending. |
| Destroy The Block | Plant or defuse the bomb. | One life per round makes this different from a respawn-based kill race. |
| Chain Snatch | Collect chains dropped by defeated players. | Enemy chains score; recovering friendly chains denies the other team. |
