Guild Wars 2

Hi, I just bought a hard copy of gw and was wondering how much of the game isnt on the disks it came with. I have a data limit of around 10 gigs so I have to be careful about how much I use. Please, im just looking for a straight answer. Ty :)

Unfortunately there Is not much of the game on those disks it’s just and installer so you are going to have to download 16GB+ but there may be a way around this. Do you know anyone with uncapped internet if so go there install the game on their PC and let it download all the files the game needs. This could take some time depending I how fast their internet is. Then goto the directory you installed the game to and with a large enough flash drive or portable hard drive copy the gw2.dat file. Take it home and copy it to the directory where you installed guildWars2 over writing the existing gw2.dat file and enjoy the game. Hope you get this worked out good luck.

Incorrect. I bought a physical copy and it came with two loaded DVDs that installed around 15-16 GB of data and then downloaded another 4GB of updates.

Part 3.11 Bought the GW2 DVD, but it still requires over 75k file to be downloaded?
“The DVD is the copy from initial launch, since then there has been many patches/updates. 75K files to download is normal. A full game installation is about 225k files.”
