So i heard that you keep your armor and weapons if you do a second playthough but i wanna know you can get the other weapons from the collecter ship and still have the one from your first playthough if you do a second playthough.

Anyone tried it?

No you cant.

u start all over with different class and or difficulty

Actually you can, you keep your level, your weapons, and oddly enough... you keep relationships, so if you screwed something up with a crew mate I would recommend starting new.

I don't remember the relationships being something kept... all of mine seemed to start from the beginning again. But you definitely keep your weapons and armour.

I think you also keep the weapon specialisation you can pick on the Collector ship, though I can't remember 100% if that's true.

Yeah I really wish I didnt pick the machine gun .... the 2nd machine gun is so much better, Vindicator I think its called.

Relationships change every game, Kinda wondering what the other weapons are like. New game I suppose

Yes I played thru me2 with an imported me1 adept and when I replayed Me2 I still had the collector particle weapon. Think this only works for the specific char not a completely new one that has not gone thru the game once.
You do get other bonuses for completing one run but not weapons
I think anyway

If youve finished it with a char once and you start a new game you can choose to "import" a ME2 char if you do that you get the following:
- Keep all HEAVY weapons.
- Get extra recources and credits at the start.
- Get 25% more exp

and if you import a ME 1 char you get:
- 1000 exp (start at Lvl 2).
- Extra credits if you ME 1 char was rich.
- Different encounters than normal (meeting extra people!)
