I've heard, and by this stage I'm pressuming so have you, that EDI can survive the Destroy ending, but searches of Youtube keep on turning up blanks. That's strange for something that should be quite big, as it straight up shows the Catalyst wasn't accurate.

I've come to the realisation that she can't actually survive it, it's just hearsay with no proof. If someone can prove she does, by posting a video, please do I REALLY want to see it and I will edit the thread accordingly, but until then:

No don't believe the rumours, she can't survive.

28th of April Update:

A lot of stuff has already been covered but I'm just going to assume you wont read the thread so here's whats been covered:

Patrick Weekes never stated EDI could survive. Even in the unofficial interview.

Jessica Merizan has said herself that she's only speculating, people misintupreted her speculations for fact until she cleared it up.

This thread isn't for speculating whether or not EDI survives, nor discussing whether or not it's a bug, it's to get out the information that she point blank doesn't survive the destroy ending. There is zero proof of her surviving despite the claim.

May 1st Update:

I never added these videos beforehand because the default for the Destroy ending is EDI is dead, but here's the search "edi survives destroy ending mass effect 3" on Youtube, and here's all the destroy ending results from that:

www.youtube.com/watch

www.youtube.com/watch

www.youtube.com/watch

www.youtube.com/watch

www.youtube.com/watch

www.youtube.com/watch

www.youtube.com/watch

www.youtube.com/watch

www.youtube.com/watch

www.youtube.com/watch

Basically the main point of that was to show that Youtube confirms the default; EDI can't survive. There are tons of videos of normal boring endings, and tons of Shepard survivng, but not one single one of the absolutely massive event that would be EDI survivng. It's just hearsay and rumours people, EDI can't survive the destroy ending, we need to get the truth out there.

On a different note, I'm pleased to say this thread is now the top result on Google for "EDI survives destroy ending".

That was one of the reasons for me updating the OP, to give all those Googlers something to click on, without them having to go and search for themselves first.

I had thought someone from BioWare posting on twitter said that she survived? Could've just been a random employee, but I had heard that

[hunterdan1992]

They are backtracking on that one. Apparently EDI has one heck of a surge protector

[GLR-0053]

I thought Star Child already mentioned that "All synthetic life including the Geth." So there you have it and EDI is technically Synthetic so yeah can't have an omelet without breaking a few eggs.

[D4rkSektor]

Someone from BioWare has stated that Star Child isn't entirely truthful. The Geth and EDI can survive the destroy ending, just that their Reaper-based parts are destroyed. It makes me worry about EDI. I hope she doesn't turn into a dumb VI because of that.

[ediskrad327]

well.....she CAN

[sammysoso]

Yea, I'd really like to see video of this.

[Zweipersona]

lolol, oh bioware, I can't way for you to 'clarify' for us peons.

[DrDino]

He also said Shepard would die.

So basically everything they were firm about under the umbrella of "Artistic Integrity" they are now backtracking via Twitter?

Awesome. True Artists... they are not.

[VeryHappySloth]

If you guys are talking about Jessica Merizan, then stop. She herself has stated that she is in no way in the loop with the writers/devs. She doesn't know what's going on. All that stuff she says, is her own personal perspective. She has made that clear multiple times.

[Clayless]

Can anyone provide links for any of this?

Especially a video. This entire thread is about not believing hearsay.

[ShepardTheHopeful]

Casey Hudson: Shut up and speculate that's why.

[Mcfly616]

Haha yeah....she can walk out of the Normandy on destroy....many people have seen it....including me.....so....yeah idk

And ME3 Twitter was asked if it was a glitch....and they said it wasn't.....this was about 2 weeks ago


Edit: it was not Jessica that confirmed it wasn't a glitch....it was the official Mass Effect Twitter....not saying.theyre anymore reliable than Jessica.....but those are the facts for you

Happened to my friend but he didn't capture it unfortunately (and neither md nor him have a single clue how to go about doing that any way)

So do the Geth apparently but just without the Reaper upgrades. :|

She also said that EDI wasn't made from reaper tech, guess she didn't do the cerberus base mission.

I wouldn't take her seriously tbh.

[Reth Shepherd]

Wasn't it confirmed in the "Unofficial Interview with Patrick Weekes conducted by a fan at Pax - UPDATED" thread? I'm NOT wading back through that 73-page morass to check, though.

Can you provide evidence for any of this? Especially a video of EDI surviving?

If that's true (and I highly doubt it, coming from Merizan), then that means that Legion doomed his entire race by uploading that code. What a great sacrifice.

[Reth Shepherd]

Actually, I'd be willing to bet that it WAS originally a bug, and that Bioware is taking the opportunity to backtrack. Not the first time.

[Parabolee77]

Anyone that used EDI has one of their most used squad mates (the presumed method for who steps off the Normandy) fancy replaying the ending, choosing destroy and filming it?

If the save game editor can change who your most used squad mates were I'll give it a shot.

But yeah the Bioware community manager confirmed that EDI surviving destroy is not a bug. She said it was because she has no Reaper tech, which makes no sense since the Catalyst said all synthetics, not only Reaper tech. But she also said the Catalyst is an unreliable source of information.

[xefiroEA]

I agree that Destroy kills her.

I checked this personally. EDI was one of the members I used most, and I had her with me on the final mission. I got the best ending, saw my Shep breathe, but on the planet only Liara (my LI and the squad member I used most) and Javik (who I only used for Thessia) walked out of the Normandy.

So I choose Control.
