Shot in the dark here, but what if you activated one of the secret switches when all of the Bobs are dead?



Someone probably already suggested it.

And I mean all Bobs on the level of the secret switch.

Been watching this thread and loving it. I think your theory holds water ... Do a search for bob in halo reach files and all pics of them are classified intel, which means they have campaign significance. ( bungie stated that files with campaign spoilers will have classified intel as a thumbnail)
Backwards messages... Epic. This should go somewhere great

apparently I killed a bob on mission six. not sure if it was significant.

Are you going to play with Boo again?

Beat.

You son of a -blam!-.

Can we get an updated list of found Bobs? I feel like more have been found than the OP shows, or at least that info is a bit outdated now.

Found a BOB on Winter Contingency, this was in a game where I killed the cloaked elite at the beginning. I first encountered the bob at the first small base that you get to if you take the orange truck up the left route, but it was AGGRESSIVE with its concussion rifle and killed my truck almost instantly. The second time it was all the way up the hill past the big base, and I assassinated it.

BOBS usually AREN'T aggressive, are they?

There have been a few reports of this particular angry Bob. He always seems to go nuts with the concussion rifle.

To the OP - you may want to put a link in the first post about the backwards messages in the data pads.

If you guys really think about it - this is bungies farewell. No way are they going to make this easy. I wonder if the coordinates from the radio on outpost will fit in somehow. It reminds me of the iwhbyd skull in halo 3.

And a final question - does the game "know what data pads you have gotten - much like the terminals? Or does it have to be done on one run-through?

  • 09.20.2010 12:22 PM PDT

Has anyone tried hitting the switch and speed running towards the end of the level to check the doors? The switch could have a timer on it.

I dont think this has been verified yet.

Have been keeping a close eye on this thread all day whilst battling through the solo campaign on legendary. Have finally managed to kill most of the bobs mentioned here.

However can confirm the presence of another bob, when driving the truck towards the building with the data pad on the ground, veering right before you pass under the broken bridge going over the highway, a small shelter to your lift, slightly up the hill. Getting out of your vehicle and approaching the shelter will cause the bob to appear, which actively attacks both you and your vehicle with a concussion rifle (killed me twice on legendary) before disappearing almost immediately.

Also has anyone else noticed the climbable ladder up the water tower on winter contingency? Not sure if there's anything up there but it's peculiar nonetheless...(dont remember ever being able to climb a ladder on halo)

  • 09.20.2010 12:39 PM PDT

There was a ladder in Halo3 Tsavo Highway mission ^.^

  • 09.20.2010 12:57 PM PDT

climbable ladder you say??? have you confirmed that you can climb it to the top? will check that out tonight...

I found something. I'm putting my account on it. It's there. I don't make stuff up, but I'm not posting about it on this thread cause this is campaign stuff.

  • 09.20.2010 1:07 PM PDT

Sorry Venom, forgot about that ladder ;p

Yeah, you can climb to the top but when you're up there it won't let you jump (seems to be out of the map limits?) but if you crouch you can crawl into the dark above it. I quit because I couldnt see anything but it has literally just occurred to me to switch on nightvision (duh), so will check it out again now..

Screw it. I tried making a thread about Multiplayer Secrets and it was pushed back to page "not the front" in a split second.

Underneath Spire, via the Theater Glitch...There is something odd. A cube. In the Cube is a weird hologram Coat of Arms. Go look for yourself if you don't believe me. As I said before, I'm putting my account on it.

If it's old news, then forget I said anything, k? lol

I'm back, Any breakthroughs?

Anyways, I only skimmed through the lasted responses, but it sounded like you guys found some unrelated easter eggs, can you put them in the OP too?

(also, someone message halopedia admins about this, they have no clue what "bobs", the switchs, or that they even exist.

  • 09.20.2010 2:04 PM PDT

I take it you're here for a reason?

A memorial to my H3 guy by:Do The D3w

I noticed that the "wannabe" white BoB on Sword base changes armor sets depending on diffculty.

Easy -Minor

Heroc -Spec ops

I had one of a White General thats outside but the link doesn't want to work. And on a related note, if you put on the Thunderstorm skull he doesn't appear at all.

Hey, now!

This is officially either the greatest or worst thing to ever happen to Star Wars. I'm going with the former.

How about PUNCHING the switch on The Package? Since the BOBs seem to be a reference to Marathon, I remembered the original Vidmasters thing. To Never Ever Leave ANY BOB's alive, and to punch all switches. Maybe that has some bearing here? Namely killing all the BOB's and punching that mysterious switch. It's worth a try, though.

I suggested this too, and I agree that it makes more sense to actually melee the switches instead of activating them, NOT in addition to activating them. Because in Marathon punching switches activated them. Has anyone meleed the package switch to see what happens?

Also, here's another multiplayer map thing: On countdown, in one corner of the second floor I think, there's a RADIO of some sort that I heard a voice coming from during a match. It was competitive free for all so I didn't stick around for very long to hear it, but I might hop in later and check it out. You guys should too. It's near the "spaceship" end of the map, I think... the end with the sword on it.

Yeah, I saw a Zealot wannabe one in the shotgun room on heroic.

I would like to be a Mythic Member, or a mod.

REALLY BAD. I believe I deserve it, I am very loyal to the dear Bungie forums and want to keep everything in tip-top shape. Its always a real pleasure to be on the forums and I want to be recognized here.

Silly bobs!
