What do these ratings mean?

This game was a disappointment that was probably caused by all of the hype. Pretty amazing graphics. Lots of customization with some weird restrictions tho. Mostly all of the negatives are from online multiplayer. Spawnpoints are the worst problem and they absolutely kill online play. I cant count the number of times I've been chilling in an area picking people off as they come by, and then suddenly the entire enemy team spans in a corner right behind me. Also, the will be countless occasions where i spawn and within two to three seconds, i get shot. That tells me that people are being spawned WAY too close to enemies. Also, the game frequently freezes up during host migrating. However, the new wager matches are fun. They are basically custom games. (They are addicting as hell) Solid game buuuut way overhyped 

+ Amazing graphics
+ They really deserve two :)
+ New currency system
- But its a little weird
+ Weapons are sick
+ Lots of customizations
+ Wager matches are extremely fun
- Spawnpoints can ruin the online play
- Seriously they can
- Host migration freeze
- Just not as good as Modern Warfare 2
