Downloaded The 1st Part Of The Season But....
So you missed episode 2?
how do you pick and choose what episodes you download? whenever i start the game up it will automatically download any update available.
I assume you mean you have episode 1 & 3 but did not log in during the period episode 2 was available.
The only way to get that story episode is to buy it using gems I’m afraid. You should really log in once every two weeks. That said, it’s not that bad to farm some gold and buy it.
Yes I have 1 & 3, but 2 I didn’t get as I was out of town. Question though, I have 2 computers, 2 PC’s both with Guild Wars 2 separate accounts. Can I copy my data file from my PC to theres as mine is up to date with all the episodes?
You can’t choose which episodes you download, the game automatically downloads any new data available via patches. You do have the data connected to Episode 2, but it is unavailable to you as you have not logged in the 2 weeks the episode was active.

When you download your update for Episode 3 it also downloaded the update for Episode 2. The episode however is locked in your Story Journal so no you can not play the story of episode 2 unless you unlock it. That is done with Gems. More information on the Story Journal can be found at the following link.

As for copying the .dat data file from one computer to another to save bandwidth yes that can be done. I personally would not do it however as the downloads are rather fast(I know subjective and dependent on speeds) and it is the difference between copying a ~500mb of files from the internet vs a ~16-25GB file can be substantial. Depending on data transfer speeds.
Okay thanks for the heads up, as someone said, I can farm gold and unlock it that way I guess, better then nothing right,

Both of them have them downloaded, you just aren’t allowed to play the story instances unless you buy it, so copying over the data won’t affect anything.
