I also prefer the protagonists to be normal soldiers and not spec ops people who single handily beat the bad guys. In the newer games like IW, the stakes are too high the protagonist's actions decide the fate of the world--it's basically a dead giveaway that the good guys are gonna win no matter how much of a plot twist you put on it (who here was actually surprised at how IW ended?). In MW2, when Roach and Ghost were killed, that was shocking to many people because they were the main characters, but in the context of the story, they were expendable.
