Hello. I used to play original Guild wars a few years back. I still have my characters. I recently bought EOTN expansion for cheap. My question is, can I install it without having any problems installing Nightfall, or Factions later on? or should I install them in a specific order?

Thanks for answering.

A common mistake people make when they buy another guild wars game, is to create another account with the new games CD-Key.

You can install the GW games in any order that you want, it doesnt matter at all.

So, yes its perfectly safe to install EotN before another campaign. However, make sure that you add the game's CD-Key to your already existing account, and not create another one.

Hope that helps...

Shouldn't be a problem as all you really do is update the game code and then let the game update itself.

No real need to run install disks after the first game is installed

Once you've got one version of Guild Wars installed you have them all, the game will download everything else as and when you map to a new area.

You can't make an account from an Eye of the North key since it's an expansion, not a separate campaign.
