The game is set in the early 21st century during a fictional world war between various power blocs: the United States aided by the European Union (playable as of the 1.50 patch), the United Kingdom, and the Russian Federation (playable only as Spetsnaz in the Special Forces expansion) at war against China aided and the fictional Middle Eastern Coalition (MEC) aided by various insurgent groups.

There is no known reason as to how or why the war broke out, though one likely theory is for control of oil reserves. In-game, the European Union and the United States fight China and the MEC. It is mentioned in-game that the US and EU are allies and the EU has negotiated a peace deal with Russia, but it is unknown if China and the MEC are allies. The game also takes place in different fronts, as the Middle East and China are being invaded by US and EU forces, and the United States is being invaded by Chinese and MEC forces.

    The plot! The plot! What kind of plot could a poet possibly provide that is not surpassed by the thinking, feeling reader? Form alone is divine.

    “The plot thickens,” he said, as I entered.
    Sir Arthur Conan Doyle (1859–1930)

    Ends in themselves, my letters plot no change;
    They carry nothing dutiable; they won’t
    Aspire, astound, establish or estrange.
