It seems that viable solution is really just to copy the game folder to other
computer. Tnx all

Hello,
The situation is:
- i work 2 months overseas on a cruiser ship for a company Royal Caribbean
- so, 2 months i am at my home in Europe, and for 2 months i am on a ship,
with a descent (but not mega descent) internet connection
I am currently on a ship for the next two months, and am expecting my new
laptop to arrive.
I would like to play the game when i am at my cruise period.
The game is currently installed on a desktop, it is a downloaded edition,
and on the cruiser i work on, there is no possibility for me to do another
diownload/installment on my new laptop i bought just for the sake of being
able to play GW2.
What would you suggest, do i have the option to buy the game client on a
hard-copy with all the latest updates(patches) ?
Or somehow to transfer (backup) the game from my desktop PC ?
Any help/info would be appreciated.
We talked about this issue moments ago on Account Issues forum:
https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/support/account/Transfer-game-client-to-different-computer/first#post2741990
And some of the guys suggested just copying the game folder to target machine and it will work.

@Behellagh.1468:
Yes, this is my primary concern, should I just tell my brother just to to “backup” my game with latest patches, send me, and I will be ready to go? Will this work? Are all the files in game folder, none of them in some other system folders?
