I finished ME2 with all characters alive and all choices I wanted, and hit 30 (imported ME1 lvl 60 character and finished all missions/assignments). So I want to use that one for ME3.

But now I want to start an Insanity run. If I do a NG+ (though I understand it really doesn't give me much benefit), will that overwrite my previous profile / saved games? Or does it create a new career. IIRC, in ME1 it was the same career but kept the saved games.

Unfortunately, EA/BioWare doesn't let us copy saved games to a different storage device otherwise i'd just back it up and try, but I don't plan on doing absolutely everything in Insanity and I plan on taking my time with this one and trying out a few decisions I don't want to carry over to ME3.

It creates a new career so you will still have your playthrough #1. So you'll have 2 career saves, both with the same name and background, etc.

How did this work with ME1? I only played 1 playthrough and up to level 44.. So if I did a 2nd playthrough on ME1 to hit 60, will it create a new career? And which decisions from ME1 would it import; 1st or 2nd?

I personally did a new career for going on insanity. From what I can tell its actually harder doing NG+ on insanity than it is on a new career. I could be wrong but I'm having an easier time as a new character on insanity.

Yeah I actually had a lot of trouble on NG+ with my level 26 on insanity and decided to just make a new career altogether for my achievement. I kept dying early on, Freedom's I think, probably cause I was just bad. <_<

Thanks. Because I already hit lvl 30 with my first ME2 playthrough, I suppose there's really no reason to do NG+ and starting anew seems to be the most common suggestion for running through Insanity. Plus, apparently NG+ doesn't let you choose a different class and I think I want to try something different. (For ME3, though, I'll definitely stick to Soldier - feels more natural and adds to the tensity.)

Yes it is harder.  Christina Norman said this would be the case before ME2 came out.  The best way to go is to start a new career w/ME1 Level 60 character after finishing ME2 once.  This gives maximum bonuses yet keeps the difficulty from being ramped up as it is for NG+.

NG+ was fun. Insane, I mean really, really Insane, but fun. Not much point in an Insane level game not being insane, but each to their own
