    I thought the trailer looked like some kind of nuclear holocaust had happened like in that last resident evil movie... it didn't look like a middle eastern country.

    Most of us have only seen the trailer so we can't tell you that much.
     
    All I know is in the trailer the US flag was flying upside down, this means that the person who was flying it was in distress.

    Uh, ok. Well if you're playing as an American soldier in a war, then why not have pro-American imagery?

    The flag was upside-down, being a symbol for... something. You're after an American colonel that has gone rogue (think Apocalypse Now).

    An upside down US Flag is a distress symbol. It's actually a law.
