343 does seem to be doing a good job at keeping it as balanced as possible. There is one perk that I think should be questioned, and that would be the overshield. I was watching some impressions from mlg players and one of them brought up a good point; when you get an ordinancy drop after 5 kills you can choose between a power weapon, grenades, and armor type ability. He brought up, "why on would I pick grenades or rocket pistol over an overshield?" Overshields are a little overpowered imo and that is why they worked good as a pick up instead of something you can spawn. Normally I don't listen to mlg players, but I do think they have a point on this one.
There is a link to the video below of him describing it better than I did.
