I dont think bob helmet is a bob helmet maybe its an armor affect that you have to achieve that lets you combine armor permutations together.

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

that's different from the feedback that has been showing up. Good place to start questions.

This is not a matter or faith or opinion, it is a simple factual one.
That is like claiming the moon is made of cheese and then asking people not to point out evidence to the contrary because it conflicts with your cheesy beliefs. There is a right and a wrong in this one.
It doesn't matter, the fact is you don't need to persecute someone who wants to believe this armor is in the game. I'll remember this thread, if that helmet winds up in the game somehow I'll be back to serve up a buffet of look who's laughing now. If not, I don't care either, call me a fool.

It's like the boogie man, it's well known that the man doesn't visit each house and lurk in closets but you don't see everyone walking around the street screaming "THE BOOGIE MAN IS A FRAUD!!!" to every man, woman and child that they come across. If someone wants to believe something crazy, let them it doesn't cause you any harm.

I'm not saying the BOB thing is true but something is going on here.

SO who thinks more info or something is going to come with Halo:CEA

  • 06.15.2011 7:48 PM PDT

Personally, I just think the helmet will come out as free DLC during Bungie Week. Since DLC can not already be in the coding. Thus the reason any hackers who searched deep into the coding to find it failed.

Yup.

Or maybe even sooner. Look forward to Bungie Day. July 7, 2011.

So the flying BOBs are BOBs but don't give medals when destroyed IN the banshee. The key is IN the banshee. Has anyone tried hijacking these BOBs to kick them onto the ground and then killed them? Since they are now on foot mabye they would give the medal then...

Bungie should consider investing in precipitation gathering nets for these forums. The sheer amount of tears shed by anyone who's been destroyed by armor lock, jet pack, grenades, and the AR could continuously operate hydroelectric dams, irrigate farms, and provide clean drinking water for third world countries.

Somewhat fitting.

1: The NA BoBshee never ever flies over anything solid.

2: The BoBshees are empty anyway.

3: They cannot be hijacked.

I am playing the campaign all the way through, on Heroic, killing one BOB per mission. I am on Long Night of Solace right now.

Actually, I have a friend who claims he found some armor coded in the Defiant map pack. He knows how much it costs, and what rank you have to be in order to obtain it, but, he does not know how to unlock it, that in why I am exploring the BOB theory.

  • 06.16.2011 6:41 AM PDT

My theory is that yes you do get the helmet but i think its more than that. i have been told that if you collect all the data pads and kill all bobs then you get to use your reach armour in the remake of halo ce

LOL! I don't think so...

Can anybody kill one of these 7 Banshee BOBs? I have hit one of them 5 sniper shots and 2 rockets and cannot kill any of them.

I have been trying for hours.

Vid here and rendered

Oh, and just to add.... There is the magic No.7 of them too

That would be great if it is true. It could explain why we haven't found anything with the B.o.B.'s. Could you direct him to this thread or try to get some more information? It would help tremendously.

Yeah we uh, already know where the BOB on winter is.

  • 06.16.2011 10:05 PM PDT

The more and more we find BOB Banshees, the closer we get to discovering what the BOBs are really meant for and their true purpose.

Just keep looking guys.

I doubt they're BoBanshee's, they are more than likely there for the scene and mood of the place rather than to fight....and I say that because the rockets bounce right off them and you can fire sniper rounds till the sun comes up.

It's times like this I wish I knew how to access the coding and try to figure this out.

What about the fact that the BOBs are usually alone when people find them. They're usually in a populated area but they're usually by themselves, Winter, tip of the spear, pillar of autumn. Maybe bobs are fighting to gain the respect of someone? I know it sounds stupid but leave no stone unturned...or something
