So first off I want to thank 343 for inviting me to the flight. Although I was invited to the Xbox One flight instead of PC which is the platform I usually play on and have been invited to previous flights on. With that said first issue I want to point out is for Xbox One users. Now I know this was a VERY early build but this game ran so poorly on the Xbox One. Hopefully this improves if they are planning on having this game on previous gen consoles, cause so far from what I experienced the game felt like it only ran at 30 fps, and then dropped significantly when I got into combat. We are talking like 15 to 20 FPS. Also I could be totally crazy but I feel like the aim assist worked like half the time. Like I would notice at times where I would swipe across an enemy and I would get zero slow down or even no magnetism at times. AGAIN this all could be because it was a VERY early build.
Suggestions for maps, guns, and overall gameplay
MAPS
In all honesty I feel like these maps feel like they have a strong inspiration from Halo 5, in terms of design and flow of gameplay. Now I don’t have a lot of play time in 5 but I can say that maps like Bazaar and Recharge felt like they were a room/hallway simulator. These two maps kinda looked and felt like Empire, Eden, and Plaza all mixed into one. My suggestion is I would like to see more arena symmetrical style maps that are inspired from older Halo titles. Not saying they have to be carbon copies but rather just a whole new design for that style of map. A good example of this being done in H5 was the map Colosseum. Or if you want a older title map to use for reference, maps like Pit, Sanctuary, or Warlock.
GUNS
AR NEEDS TO BE NERFED. I’ve said it before and I will say it again no AR starts PLEASE. With that said the AR feels so dominant paired with how you can now ADS with it. It feels like I can actually hold a position with an AR and cross map people with it (kind of like what you do with a BR and or a Sniper). Not saying the AR is on that level of range but it is quite the significant buff compared to past games. HOPEFULLY when we come closer to solidifying the ruleset for HCS and Ranked that ARs are completely out of the picture and it will be BR starts.
NEEDLER NEEDS TO BE NERFED AS WELL. My dear god please this gun absolutely DESTROYS everyone. Maybe tweek the fire rate because in my experience it kills way too quickly.
THE BR IS RIGHT WHERE IT SHOULD BE. This no joke has to be my favorite BR in the entire series. It has the H3 fire rate tied with not as strong aim assist compared to previous games. I personally feel like with these two aspects not only are gunfights gonna require more skill but it will give MnK players like me more of a fighting chance. It wont always be a uphill battle.
Sidekick is meh… Not really much to add here just wasn’t really thrilled to use this gun.
Also like previously mentioned PLEASE have BR starts by default thank you 
GAMEPLAY
THE GAMEPLAY IN THIS GAME IS EXACTLY WHAT WE NEEDED!
It is a perfect blend of old and new, and I cannot wait to see more of everything.
Also one quick P.S, before I go I love the fact that nading weapons is a thing again always thought that was one of the coolest things to ever be in Halo.
