Can the Crucible matchmaking be based on your overall Rank? It may allow players who have never entered the Crucible to compete with others with the same experience. Instead of being eaten alive by the veterans/ champions of the arena. I feel I am a decent player, helping my friends and ransoms during strikes, missions, & public events. But, my first Exotic bounty has lead me to a PvP requirement to earn 500 points (+5/kill & -2/death). I die more than I can kill. I understand it is part of the challenge. It is a way for players to [u]earn[/u] their rewards. Hone their skills, making a better player out of them. I read tips telling me to keep at it, learn the maps, stay with your teammates, look for the heavy ammo. Accumulating 50 points felt so good! Now I am down to 17 points. If the matchmaking can't be adjusted, why not remove the negative penalty instead? It seems like a long road to 500 points anyway, for a player who [i]may[/i] get 3 kills a match. If this is what all the exotic bounties are going to be, I'm not certain I can own something all the [b]cool[/b] players are equipping. BooHoo 
