Guild Wars 2

Is there anything special I need to do to bring the game over? I know for WoW, all I need to do is copy the files from mycomputer, local, program files and drag and drop them into there again after the upgrade. Is it the same with this game? Or do I have to reinstall and patch?

same as wow. just copy the GW2 folder over. it will be about 15GB

Wait… so i can just move GW2 game folder to the 64bit program files and it will in a 64bit environment? i dont get it, because as far as i was aware there was only a 32bit client for GW2

lolwut

If you are running Windows 64bit OS, it can execute both 32/64bit applications.

You would move GW2 folder to C:\Program Files (x86) if you want the default location it would normally be. It doesn’t have to be there, it could be on another drive or whatever.

a 32bit app is always run via wow64 (Windows 32bit on Windows 64bit)

XP 32bit did something similar with dos/16 bit apps via NTVDM and its WoW subprocess.
