Is it still there, i’m downloading the game right now and if the playlist isn’t there anymore I won’t bother downling the damn thing
I believe they replaced it with Oddball but im not 100%.
Throwback has been replaced by Oddball for now, but it will be coming back:
> - In Everything There is a Season – New Arena season is targeting Nov. 1 for release, but that could be adjusted a bit contingent on some work going into the Overtime content update. Get ready for another round of placement matches! - Speaking of Which… – As an FYI, when Oddball goes live in Halo 5 matchmaking, it will replace the H3 Classic Throwback playlist (shortly after the upcoming Overtime content release). However, fear not – the H3CT playlist will indeed return in the future – and with new maps and full support for the Oddball mode itself.

To ensure healthy populations across existing playlists, so that wait times are not too long and people can still get matches

Replacing 1 playlist with another, thus ensuring that the active population doesn’t get further spread out across playlists. The more playlists you add then the more chance you have of reducing population in other playlists, which in turn reduces your chances of getting into matches / getting into matches with others of equal skill to yours.

It was always a temporary playlist. Its eventually coming back and with more maps. Halo has ALWAYS done this. How is this anything new?

since 343 are in charge, the only mode that used to be removed from playlist were Double xp and 7 on the 7th, Now they just replace mode with Oddball which is supposed to be there by default

I don’t recall having dificulty to find infection game back in Halo 3 days, there we’re like 3 times more playlist back then, and I never had trouble finding games
Okay dude you got your answer better quit the install. It would have been better to ask the question before you started.

I just started it, haven’t waste alot of time downloading it
Don’t have the exact detail to hand, but playlist wise Halo 5 has ranked, social and Warzone playlists to content with along with a lower population.
Closing this off now as there’s not much need to keep it open any longer
