Hello everyone, I know I am very late for this feedback but I have been on holidays so I didn’t have time. This feedback is for 343. This is solely based off of my opinion on the game.
UI (User Interface)
I feel like the UI needs to be “tidied/cleaned” up. There are a lot of things all around the place in the menu and it is confusing. I think a more traditional approach would be great (e.g. the Halo Reach menu). - I understand you guys want a more “modernised” approach to the UI and I am totally cool with that. Maybe, try and copy the menu system for Call of Duty Modern Warfare (2019)/Warzone. - I feel like I would like to see it in 3/4 sections when you go into the game - Campaign, Multiplayer, Creative. Also, the battlepass should have it’s own section when you go into multiplayer and not off to the side. Gameplay
When in the academy, I noticed that there was a lot of loading and jittering issues with all the weapons when moving the weapons side to side. Other than this, the weapon drills were great! - All three maps were fine to play on I think except there was some lighting issues on the map Baazar. When in certain areas of the map and when looking up to the sky box, the lighting of the whole map would change. - I feel like the TTK (Time-to-kill) needs to be a tad bit faster. - Movement is great so far and the bots are actually sometimes hard to kill so that is great! Performance
During my entire time playing the tech preview on my Xbox Series X, it has been great. I didn’t notice any sudden drops in frame rate. Graphics
So far, the graphics are looking good. I love the little things this game has to offer, like when you shoot mud on the floor - there are particles that splash around. - I noticed footprints around the place also. - Great improvement overall and I am sure it will even look better when it is out. Customisation
Customisation really blew me away, it is exactly what I wanted and I remember saying this months and months ago "The customisation needs to be really great, it needs to include all the customisation aspects from all the Halo games and most notably from Halo Reach". - Although, I hope the traditional way of picking your spartan colour is going to be there. Overall
Overall, this game needs to be and feels like a combination of all the Halo games. I believe you guys will be adding in more new weapons, maps, old weapons, old maps, variants of weapons, etc. So far, I am hoping all these things come true but I understand that here is a lot of work to be done so keep it up guys!
I had some freezed screens at Xbox Series X, where the sounds and gameplay continued, but the screen had a frame stopped there. The only way to fix it, was restarting the game

Was this when you were in the middle of a game? If so, I didn’t experience this but what I did experience was when I was idle in the menu and then suddenly changing sections from academy to multiplayer the background wouldn’t load or freeze. I only experienced one freeze during my playtime and a restart fixed this of course.

In the middle of the match! I don’t know if there’s anything to do with the fact I was using 120º of FOV the whole time

I had the same thing happen on series x. Both times when we had 49 kills. I played with 105 FOV

I was playing on 105 FOV as well and I didn’t experience that at all. I am sure they will fix/optimise the FOV for the next technical preview or for launch for sure.
