Hi,

I'd like to know if it's possible to buy Factions/EOTN and give the CD-Key to someone and they can download the full game's content without needing the CDs?

Thanks in advance

Yeah. Just have them download the client from guildwars.com and send them the keys. Installing from the cd itself isn't needed, and since you still have to apply all the updates since the cd's production (which can be quite a bit if installing from a Prophecies disc), it doesn't really save much time doing so.

The keys must remain unused, and the keys are not 'CD keys' but 'Account keys'.

but i find that the client that i downloaded from the official site always stuck at the loading menu, whereas if i install the game with my cds, there isn't such a problem
