This may be a dumb question but could I install my copy of Guild Wars on my girlfriends computer and just log in under my account name when I am at her house?

I thought it might be possible since I would only be running one instace of my account at a time.

I would like to save the extra 50 bucks for a second copy but if that's what I have to do then...............

yes you can.


You just can't login to the same account from 2 different locations at the same time.

As long as nobody else is using the account/cd key at the same time you can install the game on as many computers as you want.

The person who logs in last will get priority; it'll boot the person who is currently logged in, I believe.

But it might be a bad idea to play with guild wars instead of her when your at her house

They can play Guild Wars together...

Anyway the made the client small for a reason. The small size means you can play on any computer with the req. Just make sure no keyloggers. :/

if you try, it kicks you off of the first login, and tells you that you were booted because your account was logged in from another connection.

i have 2 computers and 2 accounts, have made that mistake once or twice at about 3 AM, lol.

LOL

I can multitask!!

No really, I sometimes get to her house before she get home from work. This way I can "get in a quicky" before she gets home. Plus, I want to try and get her interested in GW (I know its a long shot). Then if she likes it, we can load her own copy into her laptop and we can kill stuff together.

Together hobbies are a must for happy couples.....................

It's a good idea.

My wife and I kill things together on Guild Wars all the time. It's a blast, and if you're like me, you can only concentrate on one thing at a time. It's much better than giving her half the attention she deserves when she is trying to talk to me and I'm trying to defend Thunderhead Keep. Why not defend the keep together, and talk later?
