Subject: (Spoilers) Secret Collectables/Killables/Pushables (Spoilers)

Freedom has two parts: potential and resolution; as metaphors have two parts : form and interpretation; of course, the two are intertwined. Metaphor lines the road to freedom, as symbols and words are the bricks and mortar of meaning. Freedom being the briocoleus, the mason.
***END MESSAGE***
***JUMP ACTIVATION INITIATION START***
***TRANSPORT WHEN READY***

Bobs - in Bungie's Marathon series, there was an npc called "BoB", they were essentially just humans, and there were a few missions throughout the trilogy where you were required to save them. The word Bob stands for "Born on Board", meaning these humans are just clones that were made to run the ship. Back in the marathon days it was common practice to annihilate all the Bobs in each level, because they tended to get in the way, they were fun to kill, and they also dropped pistol ammo. Even part of the original Vidmaster Challenge was to never leave a single Bob left alive before leaving a level.

So it seems this may be a throwback to Marathon.

He could have killed him, died, restarted the checkpoint, and then killed him again.

Mmm.. it's probable.

thought just occured to me what if thee is a very well hidden switch and or bob or something on the last level "Lone Wolf" that could unlock the ending in itself

I have killed two Bobs in the Fifth and one in the sixth mission (on legendary). I believe that I killed the same Bob twice in the same mission. I still have this playthroughs saved so I can make research if you want.


Yes please, that would help ALOT! ^_^

I posted this in the other thread but ignore it.

Does anyone know where any of the other switches are? Or do they know what they do?

We could get four people, spread three of them around the area by the switch(in bounds), get the fourth person to activate the switch, then the other three start looking for things that change.

Then replay the part over in Theater and try to find something there.

If nothing turns up then I say ditch the Bob theory and go with the switches. If they dont activate anything during the Campaign then I would bet that they alone would activate an alternate ending.

And I couldnt watch the video. Does it say its a legendary ending.. Or an alternate ending?


He said Legendary Ending. So far there are 4 switches. 3 of them go to easter eggs such as the Rave music on New Alexandria having 2 switches and 1 on The Package to open a door to the tribute room. The fourth has no use yet.


Sorry if Im being a pain but can you guys find me videos of them? Id kinda like to see them.

I read through the whole other thread but didnt find anything about the other three switches.


Switches vids are now in op

Just check one mission and then report back. If it really is two different Bobs, then you will need to check the sixth.

Still trying to find that one on "The Package" its near the very end so it may be a bit, but by god we will figure this out!

Vidmaster (35) Play on Total Carnage Difficulty, punch all switches, and never ever leave a single BOB alive.

Look at the achievements! Kill all golden-elites, hit the switches all on mythic.

Yeah that's where we pieced together the golden elites and having to kill them all. As well as the switches. Don't know about mythic though, it could just be legendary.

Let us know how mythic goes in case there is a mythic ending. ^_^

I did my research and I believe found a Bob. He carries a fuel rod gun. He also killed me once and I killed him two times. But I can't look at more videos of this mission because I lost part of it. What should I do now?

The Grunts dancing was amazing. That could have been a Legendary ending by itself.

And can someone please tell me how to find out what mission the two Bobs I have killed were on?

I never really played around with the features here so Im kinda lost with it all.

  • 09.17.2010 1:43 AM PDT

Try the 6th mission and see if you kill the same bob twice or two seperate bobs. That lost part is a hole so hopefully you have the full 6th mission?

You check your past games, select campaign, choose one of your played mission, select enemies, click the little +, scroll down and check for Bob. I will check yours right now.

Describe where he is so others can confirm. Or make a film clip for proof.

I am sorry about that. But I have the complete sixth mission. I will look there now.
BTW the Bob of the fifth mission I found always stands at the same location and does nothing until he sees me.

Edit: I am uploding a clip of this Bob right now.

This thread is interesting.I have played through legendary and have seen at least 7 of these "bobs" on different missions but haven't killed any. I will go review my films to find out their exact locations and post them here. I have a feeling that this is just the surface. My bet is beating the game on mythic while killing all of the "bobs" and activating the switches. I will be joining the search and I will post anything I find.

Yes I do but maybe it is a different one. Maybe it is a second Bob of this mission. Check my file share.
