Subject: The "BOB" Helmet Theories (Bungie, give us a hint please!)

Don't hate the player, learn by them.

You know how theres that secret place where your friend took his "Jesus" photo? Theres a banshee there right? A banshee with nobody in it? A Bob wouldn't look out of place there either...

Maybe a Bob landed his banshee there and you have to either
A) Get their real quick and shoot him or
B) Skip through some of the level so you can meet him there or
C) Unlock something that makes him stay in his banshee landing spot.

Just my idea.

Hey can I join Reach Secrets somehow? I kinda like this thing?

if it ain't dead... shoot it again.

this sounds crazy hard but maybe for the banshee BOBs you have to jack the banshee and kill them before they die from the fall...just an idea

Anniversary will most likely include two disks, one being the CE campaign and one being the Halo: Reach Multiplayer with all the map packs, and built into these maps will probably be new armor, including the BOB helmet


It's 1 disc, just so you know.

Game, could you so kindly update the OP to reflect the fact that helmet unlock via BoBs is now debunked?
Also Kira, even though it doesn't come on two disks, it could still have the reach MP with new armor, Game does have a point there.

It does makes it easier to introduce new armor to the game indeed.
But it doesn't solve the problem of those without the new game disc.

It's kinda fun to do the impossible. :)

I should give you a "dreamcrusher" ,medal. This happens often.

New Concept:
Something that has to do with all the switches on New Alexandria.
And Club Errera, the grunts, brutes, and the flyable vehicles.

I actually was thinking the same thing. LOL Great minds think alike.

Oh yea, your right, if it linked back into Reach's MP like the mythic disk then it couldn't work.

Game, hey I was wondering if you looked into my multiple BOBs possibility. Please respond.

I like to play Reach for fun. I hate MLG, campers, armor lock, and team killers because they ruin that fun. Deal with it.

Isnt the bob helmet basically elite ranger armor with a blue visor?

Checked it out a couple times at the beginning of PoA. On my 3 play throughs no BOB fell out of the banshee's when I took them out with the rocket launcher, so no confirmation yet on that level. I'm still looking for the 3rd ground BOB on this level, anyone have any leads OTHER than the 2 in Boneyard? And for that matter, where's the 3rd on ONI? I know of the one in Courtyard and the one in Sword Base near the Shotty spawn.

No, he's referring to the strange spartan helmet seen in the screenshots of the Defiant map pack. Look on the first post of this thread and you'll find a picture somewhere on there.

Not sure if it is of any use but in Halo 3 the secrets in the game weren't only in campaign. In firefight there are Covenant Pilots and the captions read "an anonymous Covenant pilot". And now im not sure if this has anything to do with BOBs but it could be a hint to whatever may be at the end of this goose chase.

Um, there wasn't any firefight in H3. You're thinking ODST, and there aren't any Elites there. Unless you're talking about something totally different from what I'm thinking <_<

Defiantly following this thread, though what is this hidden chest piece you refer to in the first post?

Interesting. Personally I hope murdering all the BOBs will unlock the legendary ending (which I'm still hoping exists).

i think it has something to do with datapads not BOBS that is if it exists i know they tell information but on the first page of each it use numbers as letters in a few words i don't know if they do any thing but what if you put them in order from the first datapad from the last and make something out of it because it is mostly 0 and 1 it could be a binary code.

If you look in the picture of the blue spartan wearing the helmet you'll see he has a black collar as part of his chest piece. That is not any chest piece we know of.

Confirmed fact: BOB helmet is not on the disk, it can only be achieve through an add on downloadable content file, just like the legendary armor effect.

Hi, my name is Bob, and I approve this message

I've got the magic in me
Everytime I touch that track it turns into gold
Everybody knows I've got the magic in me
When I hit the floor the girls come snappin' at me
Now everybody wants some presto magic

Magic, magic, magic
Magic, magic, magic
Magic, magic, magic(ahoo)
I've got the magic in me!

These tricks that I'll attempt will blow your mind
Pick a verse, any verse, I'll hypnotise you with every line
I'll need a volunteer, how about you, with the eyes?
Come on down to the front, and stand right here and don't be shy
I'll have you time-travellin', have your mind babblin'
People tryna inherit the skill so they askin' me
Even David Blaine had to go and take some classes, and
I see Mindfreak like, "What's up man, what's happenin'?"
So come one, come all, and see the show tonight
Prepare to be astounded, no Ghost or Poltergeist
You know I'm no Pinocchio, I've never told a lie
So call me Mr. Magic Man, I float on Cloud 9

I've got the magic in me (I got the magic, baby)
Everytime I touch that track it turns into gold (Yes it turns to gold)
Everybody knows I've got the magic in me (I got the magic, baby)
When I hit the flow the girls come snappin' at me (They be snappin' baby)
Now everybody wants some presto magic

Magic, magic, magic
Magic, magic, magic
Magic, magic, magic(ahoo)
I've got the magic in me!

Well take a journey into my mind
You'll see why it's venom I rhyme
Stay on the road, so I call my mama when I got time
I hit the stage, go insane, then jump into that crowd
See, see, when I rhyme I flow on the beat like pidda-dow-dow
See I decieve you with my intergalactic ether
I sing just like Aretha, so respect me like I'm Caesar
I kick it like Adidas, flowin' sticky like adhesive
Be cautious, 'cause what I be on'll leave you with amnesia
I break all the rules like Evel Knievel
It's a spectacular show, 'cause my heart pumps diesel
So whatever you saying, it don't entertain my ego
I do this everyday, Hocus Pocus is my steelo

I've got the magic in me (I got the magic, baby)
Everytime I touch that track it turns into gold (Yes it turns to gold)
Everybody knows I've got the magic in me (I got the magic, baby)
When I hit the flow the girls come snappin' at me (They be snappin' baby)
Now everybody wants some presto magic

Magic, magic, magic
Magic, magic, magic
Magic, magic, magic(ahoo)
I've got the magic in me.

I've got the magic in me!
