This post is mainly regarding the Crucible and what I feel needs to be nerfed or buffed or just fixed come the final build.
I'll start with the Auto Rifle. It serves its purpose up close and I understand why it would be such a monster in that range, sometimes even a more viable option than the shotgun in the right shooters hands. This gun should excel in that range, however this gun is also very excellent mid range making the Pulse Rifle a less viable option. I don't know if the Auto Rifle needs a tiny nerf or if the Pulse Rifle should get a buff. I feel towards the latter as the the Auto Rifle should still be the preferred weapon when getting close, but the Pulse Rifle struggles to find a home. If I were to nerf the Auto Rifle I would nerf the headshot damage as it is very easy to land multiple headshot in a quick succession.
I don't use Hand Cannons, but from what I see they could use a boost as the Scout Rifle beats it right now. I do not think we should boost the basic damage of the Hand Cannon, but instead boost the damage of headshots from the Hand Cannon to reward those with good accuracy. It'll entice people to still use Scout Rifles as they would be more practical in longer ranges. A good shot with a hand cannon can win mid range battles if they place their shots rights.
That's what I feel needs to be tweaked so far. I understand with a new IP there would be some balance issues. Please post any balance issues you feel should be changed by the final build.

Totally agree, pulse rifle and hand cannons are below average, especially in comparison to the auto rifle. Don't think the auto needs a nerf, just the buffs on pulse and hand cannons

I agree with what everyone has said, I feel the weapons (in Crucible) are quite unbalanced. This could be a result of how the weapons are acquired "Borderlands" style. And keep in mind Borderlands does not have multiplayer like the Crucible. I believe some adjustments need to be made in order to polish up crucible to be a great experience. I am voicing my opinion only because of how awesome the rest of the game is, thank you Bungie and Activision for giving us what will be such a great game! SO PLEASE LISTEN AND MAKE CRUCIBLE AS FUN AS MULTIPLAYER IN HALO!!!! Thank you!!!

no guys i think the auto rifle is fine because its an all around weapon. i think its the pulse rifle that needs a buff to make it compete better
