Ah... well it will definitely be in at some point because it has been seen, probably in the title update


I also suggest you read this to see how it is rather unlikely to happen.

Q: On Sword Base I saw a white Elite that uses random armor and duel weilds Plasma Rifles! Is this a BOB?

A: Yes, this is the BOB for this level. ONI has this BOB spawn inside of the ONI Building at the end of the mission and in the courtyard at the end of the mission. This is the only BOB ever found that is not traditionally golden and a ranger. Due to this being the second level, it is safe to assume once again that Bungie started with a pattern they were going to use. They made a golden BOB on Winter Contingency, and then they made a white BOB with rotating armor on ONI, and then Nightfall was probably going to have another unique BOB but Bungie realized it would just be easier to have just golden BOBs on the levels and they left in the white BOB just because they didn't want to go back and take him out.

.

There is one on the last level too

Ok are you retarded? They totally modelled a new helmet so they would NOT put it in the game, just so they could show it off on a few pics on IGN. Makes sense right?


Yes, randomly calling out people "retarded" in the middle of a conversation for no reason makes perfect sense.

Theres a perfectly good reason, a helmet was seen in in game pictures taken in theater most likely. How can you say that the game will not have a helmet that was already seen in game?

Plus you never even addressed my point, probably because you know you have no comeback to that.


I would read the link i gave you earlier since you obviously didn't do it.

If you had read it, your question would of been answered and wouldn't of made yourself look like an idiot.

BACON?

Only the Microsoft and 343 guys have GRD. It isn't even on Halo, disk or DLC yet! It will come out in the next title update. How it will be unlocked I don't know.

  • 07.12.2011 12:28 PM PDT

look i cant think of a single thing that has worked to get grd. which im not even gonna call it that its still the defiant helmet to me cuz nothing has shown that it is called grd. and it is real ign showed it and 343 never said it wasnt. all ive heard is its not on the reach disc and it wasnt in the difiant map pack. so it is real just out of reach....pun intended.

  • 07.12.2011 12:48 PM PDT

I figured the ACS thing was a hoax, There's no mention of it anywhere else other than a few posts by said trolls, and they were inconsistent.

There's no twentieth data pad.

All 19 have been found.

There's no NA non-banshee elite, or exodus for that matter... that however is just my opinion, I hope somebody finds a walking bob at some point, but the levels have been scoured, most if not all "switches" and eggs have been found, although I remember hearing that Bungie said that all switches have NOT been found.

so people have:
beaten all known bobs on every difficulty.
Collected all data pads, also on every difficulty.
beaten every level, also on every difficulty, most likely SLASO with PAR beaten.
hit all known switches.
reached inheritor rank.
Scoured every Campaign, Firefight, Multiplayer map, and most likely found all eggs.

It's been said by Bungie, 343i, and Evil Otto specifically that the GRD,BOB or Defiant Armory helmet is NOT available to us and is not in the game... judging by the indisputable difficulty of adding new armory items, it probably will never be made available... though perhaps, 343 found a way, but we will not know until likely late august.

So.
Reach has been SCOURED and 99% of things have been found.
The remaining 1% is probably, just another novelty egg.
GRD helmet is unavailable and probably always will be.

:edit:
I just want to mention, I am ENTIRELY hopeful there will be new armour in the TU in august, You never know what coders come up with, maybe a loophole or some workaround will or has been found by 343... Maybe there's a way that will be fresh and innovating that will allow updates of the armoury? Maybe 343 will blow our minds and add more than just the GRD helmet, but for now, I give up.

U Wot m8

Wtf that helmet looks so kewl.

  • 07.12.2011 1:55 PM PDT

for real we need to form 4 man teams and flip every rock, blast through every covy we find until reach has been 100%

  • 07.12.2011 2:11 PM PDT

I'm sure we will eventually find the last few things in the game.

Bungie said that we are still missing at least one switch.

So, where?

  • 07.12.2011 2:24 PM PDT

it is in noble actual jk. it has to be in lone wolf right?

  • 07.12.2011 2:28 PM PDT

Possible.

Winter Contingency through to Pillar of Autumn have been searched... I remember that Bungie said there is an alternate ending for halo reach, but it's almost impossible to get.

Lone Wolf IS the most impossible level, Some people have survived for a long time on legendary and killed a lot of BRUTAL elites, but who knows... who knows what you have to do, I mean it's hard to do anything on that level apart from hide or die.

  • 07.12.2011 2:37 PM PDT

maybe the bob in lone wolf if you kill all enemies but it gives you a switch that activates armor in the armory? that would be funny.

  • 07.12.2011 2:40 PM PDT

Aha, Take out the last switch, bobs and armour all at once, That would be brilliant. I was thinking about giving it a good shot on legendary at some point, it's a challenge!

  • 07.12.2011 2:45 PM PDT

the only problem with my theory is that dont the enemies contiuosly spawn so you are going to lose no matter what sadly :( unless.....

you could look at the difference between how the armor fits female and male player models and see that there is neutrally located positions for the armor. If you think about how the game plays, there are neutral hit boxes for all the spartans. The hit boxes do not change for any reason. Bungie stated that armor customization would be a purely cosmetic change.

That being said. updating armor would not be that large of a task. even with cutscenes. All cutscenes are using ingame models. 9 gigs seems like alot... few 3-4 seems a little bit better.

there was the idea of maps pulling information from source files(similar to tag sharing) from which the game pulled in information that it used to render objects in the game. This file, or possibly group of files would have to be updated for their to be new armor.

  • 07.12.2011 3:09 PM PDT

The problem with Lone Wolf, until somebody 'survives' it, We won't know how long it takes... that is if it's possible, many have tried...

and about the hit boxes, here's a small test to show hit boxes, Throw on a small shoulder such as jumpjet or whatever, then on the other throw on a large one such as captain... or whatever.

Now, in a custom multiplayer map with atleast two people snipe each shoulder.

A sniper round will hit the jumpjet (and obviously will not hit where the jumpjet is not) but it will travel THROUGH the physical model of the Captain, or atleast... most of it.

  • 07.12.2011 3:35 PM PDT

when did bungie say we wre missing a switch still? i remember hearing it but when was it?

  • 07.12.2011 4:43 PM PDT

whats with all this conspiracy of relatence of the number 7, bungie, halo, and marathon? i always thought halo was just a kickback shooting game. and now this helmet is from marathon or something? it looks okay but its not that cool. and if it is unlocked at some point, ppl wont even use it cuz they'll say that everyone is using it, resulting in no one using it. and all that bungie related stuff is just too much for being a video game, especially now that 343 is being dragged into it

My name is Tristan. I like playing video games. My favorite series is Halo. Im a nice guy so if you ever wanna play hit me up.

I have killed BOB on every level on legendary except Lone Wolf. Then I read this and I will kill BOB on heroic if I can. And then I will try to find out more about the possible huge easter egg.
