Anniversary Throwback is going away :(

They are taking it down and putting super fiesta back up so it’s not all bad BUT anniversary throwback maybe added permanent later.

From the community update

  • I just found out that Super Fiesta is coming back to Halo 5 Matchmaking later today! Based on fan feedback and analytics it’s safe to say that the “Anniversary Throwback” playlist ended up being quite popular. I want to give a shout out again to the Forgers who spent so much time making those awesome throwback maps! We’d love to add more classic re-creations down the road so please keep up the great work. We’ve heard the cries of fans loud and clear - you want something like this as a permanent addition. Many people on the team do as well. It’s not going to happen immediately but it’s on the list as the team continues working on playlist enhacements and additions for 2017.

By the update times some one said it should be changed about 15 minutes ago

Well I’m personally excited about this, I wasn’t a huge fan of the Anniversary playlist. It was fun at first, and the maps were amazing, but I got tired of the easy 3-shot kills.

Hopefully when Anniversary Throwback returns, they’ll include a new mode that features Halo 2 maps and H2BR starts. That would be fun.

they should add these maps into the other arena playlists

I agree.

This is what I would love to see them do… add them to FFA PLEASE!! then maybe dump some of the remixes. just the maps no CE pistol starts

What I’ll miss the most from it is the maps, since they were by far the best maps to play in Halo 5. It would only make sense for them to go into regular matchmaking.
