I was looking at the guild wars directory. Its only ~900 megs. Do you think you could put this on a 1GB usb drive and play it else where or are there registry entries that you need. Also is more than 100 megs worth of stuff downloaded as temp when you play?

Just an idea.

AFAIK since you haven't been everywhere in Tyria so far, I guess that some of the data is still uncompressed. I think you'll need at least 2G.

Uncompressed? Where is it compressed? In the game folder or what?

I don't think that would be the concern. It would be the files it installs in C:\windows area that would be crucial I would think.

You can try it though, but I wouldn't "play" it of the drive, that might be slow in decompressing files and such.
