Confirmation Video Now On YouTube: BOB 6-B-01

BOB 6-B-01 has now been officially confirmed with the "If It Bleeds..." daily challenge from 2011.10.22.  

Noxser recorded the game at SGP HQ, and I edited in an introductory Theater Mode walkup to the BOB before his game footage.  The video serves both to confirm the BOB as "official" by virtue of the challenge it grants and also as a guide to locating him.

ALSO:  Homer's SGP video (The Winter Contingency BOB Guide) has only received 2 "likes" and 2 comments - and that includes mine!  If you have a YouTube account, please give this video some lovin':

Here is the info from the new BOB video's description on YT:

On 10/22/2011, the daily challenge "If It Bleeds..." appeared and allowed SGP Member Noxser a chance to not only earn 5,000 credits, but also to confirm that BOB 6-B-01 (aka "The Control Room BOB") counts toward the challenge.

This video opens in Theater Mode, showing how to get to this BOB yourself after you have allowed the Pelican to land in Rally Point Bravo of "Long Night of Solace". The footage then switches to a video recording of Noxser's Xbox,, allowing us to document the challenge completion.

After BOB is killed and the challenge is granted, Noxser dies and returns to his checkpoint- before BOB was killed. This allows him to kill BOB a second time. Note that the challenge is only granted once, but he received two "Elite Light Vehicle" kills in his post-game carnage report. He also received two "Seek and Destroy" medals for this game on bungie.net:

A saved film of this game is currently in Noxser's File Share:

Keep in mind that BOB spawn points are chosen randomly when you begin a campaign mission. For this reason, you will not always find this BOB present. If he does not appear, then (like all other BOBs) it simply means that a different BOB spawning point was chosen for your particular game. He may have spawned on the beach at the beginning of the mission (BOB 6-S-01) or will spawn later when you return to the Pelican (BOB 6-B-02). This can result in an "Impossible BOB" scenario if you choose to begin the mission from a Rally Point. When you start from a Rally Point, the BOB spawning location is still chosen randomly from all available locations in that mission: even locations before the Rally Point you are starting from! This way, you cannot force a BOB to appear every single time by starting from Rally Point Bravo.

This game was recorded in the US at 1:45 AM EST on 10/23, which corresponds to 10:45 PM PST on 10/22. Challenges don't reset until about 3:00 AM PST / 6:00 AM EST. This is why the Xbox Guide Menu shows a time of "1:44 AM" during game, but the history on bungie.net lists the game occuring at "10:45 PM"
