Seems like the HRS is doing stuff. They even have their own page! (http://haloreachsecrets.blogspot.com/) However, if they have only found 1-3 spawns for bobs in each level, and we have found 7 (>1~3), they don't seem to do it carefully enough...

Sorry for the short talk, Portal 2 just finished downloading sooooo.........

Me and my crew HRS know every spawn, on every level, on every difficulty for BOB. I understand how he works, and how much it takes to kill BOB.

God, it's so great when you have such a humble and intelligent Admin.

On Steam, yeah.

And I STILL feel like they don't have enough of the "lab-coat" attitude. :P

They may not, but that's alright.  We wear the lab coats in this community.  I support working together with groups that are at least trying to intelligently work toward a common goal.  Sharing knowledge with them will only get us there faster.  Personally, their knowledge jump-started my ability to dig in further.  I hope my recent 7-spawn point discovery will do the same for them.

I would be more critical of their expectations.  The way this post (http://www.bungie.net/Forums/posts.aspx?postID=59238815) was written could be construed as very misleading because it states as fact what is only theory.  I'd never tell someone that a piece of armor will unlock when you get 9 BOB medals and then another one at 10.  I may like for that to be the case... but I would just as soon expect that I'd get absolutely nothing for collecting the ten medals.

Their find on Exodus is somewhat interesting.  They did a great job of kiting a sprinter back through the jet pack area.  Looks like an in-game (http://haloreachsecrets.blogspot.com/2011/04/exodus-easter-egg.html) out of map opportunity.  I'm guessing the objects may have been bumped out... which leads to even more potential, albeit in the glitching domain.

You CAN reach the end of the hallway with Sprint

This may be true, but I invoke VOIDO (http://gruntspajamas.com/forum/index.php?topic=360.0#post_VOIDO) on sprinting past the kill barrier.  Again: setting expectations.

I like that he made the call to the community to help.  There is a balance between the SGP and b.net.  Somewhere in the middle is where we ally with the right groups of people.  HRS seems like it might be one of those groups.  All my best to them!

Topic split. The Exodus conversation should now happen here (http://www.gruntspajamas.com/forum/index.php?topic=1523.0).
