The game is a squad based shooter and trust plays a part in story mode on how the squad views the player via the Consequence System, which shapes their opinion on their leader based on how the player performs in the game. Toshihiro Nagoshi has stated that he intends to "create the human drama in the action moments, rather than showing them one after another in cut scenes."
