Weapons can be picked up from killed enemies. At a certain point mortars can be used along with a camera to shoot with a gun controlled through a laptop, there are static turrets, and a mission shooting from a helicopter. Next to different weapons such as regular guns and grenades, there are melee attacks and brutal executions. These are not only general, as Walker can for instance ask to engage a specific target, move to a specific area, throw a flashbang or heal each other. As only the main character is controlled by the player, team mates act on their own but can also be given different orders. Game mechanics include seeking cover, aiming from behind obstacles, vaulting, sprinting, and taking out the insurgents. The different missions then lead the squad through sandy Dubai mixed with modern buildings and palaces now in decay. Initially the entire area is abandoned, but they quickly find some bodies of the 33rd and are attacked by locals insurgents. The game is introduced with a flashforward of a frantic fight in the air between two helicopters in the prologue and then starts off in the first chapter when the squad enters the city. The overall story draws inspiration from the book Heart of Darkness, also known through the film adaptation Apocalypse Now, and therefore it is no coincidence that the colonel's last name is Konrad, in reference to the book's author Joseph Conrad. They need to employ tactical squad-based maneuvers combined with shooting and seeking cover to progress through the missions. The squad consists of Captain Martin Walker, Lieutenant Adams and Sergeant Lugo, and the player only controls the first while the other two are controlled by the AI. A team of three men who served under Konrad are tasked to locate survivors and then leave the city immediately to radio command from outside the storm wall and send in the cavalry. After six months there had been no news of his mission until a transmission was picked up where he explains the evacuation was a completely disaster. After serving in Afghanistan, colonel John Konrad volunteered to lead the 33rd battalion to evacuate the city.
