I don't know of these "problems" that you describe, as every game I own is Steam-based except for three. But whatever.

But to answer your question, the only thing that you'd need Steam to do is to activate the keys and then you never have to run it again. The only thing that Steam gives you for MMOs is that your Login ID (presuming that it is public) to say "Currently In-Game: Guild Wars" instead of "Currently in Non-Steam Game: Guild Wars". Oh, and it logs your Guild Wars time played toward your meaningless Steam Score and will also count the number of hours played for you.

In short: There's no real reason to use Steam with Guild Wars unless you really want to do it.

When you enter a code it simply checks what features that code gives that are currently missing from your account. It comes as one key with 3 campaigns, you will get the 2 additional campaigns. The second copy of the campaign will provide no additional benefits unless it is a collectors version (In this case, no). None of your characters will be removed or anything like that.

Short answer: It adds the 2 additonal chapters that you dont have.

For anyone in the UK (or outside if they do shipping)

The GW Complete Collection is currently £14.99 at Play.com. Which is the same price it is on Steam for us except you'll get the physical copy and EotN as well.

Not quite as instand as buying online though.

Too bad play.com doesn't ship to Canada, I would order 1 simply for the unique case and yet another account for less than $20.

100$ = ~700 ectos = ~13 ectos per mission, surely enough to buy a runner


Just kidding. But a combination of a good guild (with people going after missions titles) and some heroes is surely better than random pugging.

I just became aware of this. Amazon has the same thing at the same price. Its great that the one-day sale will get you the incomplete game at a higher price. Been 2 years since EotN was released, still no full pack released in the US.

This is actually a reason to not buy it through steam. Instead of saying "Currently In-Game: Guild Wars" I get to rename it "Currently n Non-Steam Game: Starcraft 2 Beta"

I am pretty tempted to grab another account especially from play.com or hmv as they are complete collections for £14:99, Well worth the money...

I bought the boxed version of GW complete for just £24.99 ages ago, but now that henchmen skillbars have been buffed, I dont use it anymore.

$25 for a game thats still being played. it may be flawed but so is every game, if it is nearly dead then there wouldn't be all these people hanging around the towns.
too bad the EN deal only goes for the NC store

It is a shame about the store only deals but for £14:99 you can get eye of the north included in the complete collection from play.com and probably a couple of other places if you look around...

Just ordered one for my girlfriend - thanks for the heads up Neo. I really doubt she'll play it that much, but I might as well try, right?
