How does starting a new game work?

[hermi]

So back in New Order when you've finished game, you could start the game again and have all the perks and collectibles remain from previous playthrough. What do I have to do to achieve the same thing in New Colossus? Definetly don't wanna overwrite my current playthrough by accident.

i'm interested too to this question

I managed to do this by copying in the new slot the folders GAME-TRANSITION and PROFILE from the save game directory.I started a new game in slot 1 saved as soon I was able to then quit and did the above.
Remember to back up your save game folder just in case...

No you cant keep your perks or unlocks on a new game. There is no newgame+. You start from scratch and can do that 3 times without overwriting a previous save. Press R on the main menu to select which slot you want to use.

Allright...First you should start a new game in an empty slot (Slot 1).The moment the game allows you to save do it.After saving quit the game and go to C:\Users\your username\Saved Games\MachineGames\Wolfenstein II The New Colossus/base/savegame.user/76561198169205855 (or whatever number). You should see SLOT0 and SLOT1.Now copy from SLOT0 the folders GAME-TRANSITION and PROFILE to SLOT1 and overwrite.Start the game and load your latest save.All the collectibles and perks from your previous game should be there...
It feels like a new game+ ;-)

Huge thx mate! I save this post on personal txt and when i will finish the game i will try this.
There can be any issues with achievement progress? Like "upgrade all weapons at max" or "acquire all talents" "collect all gold" ?

Perks and stuff not being carried over is fine by me, there's a lot of game here, and if you do the side missions you can pretty much max out everythin around 70-80 percent through.

What I wanna know, do the collectibles carry over? Or do I have to find every-single gold, artwork etc again from scratch?
