Silly question: played beta, purchased release - lose character? - Guild Wars Forums

OK. So I purchased the release and have simply entered the control key to keep playing with the character I have developed through the Beta weekends. Do I need to load the CDs (or is this just the beta weekend downloads on a disk), and if I do load the CDs do I lose my character? Thanks.

I have not loaded anything from the full release cd, and have been able to play just fine. Just entered the access key. Not sure if any data on the cd is really needed or not. And not sure if installing the cd would wipe out any character data or not, but I don't think so.

I do not see how you could lose character data if you load the disk because isn't all Account data stored on their servers?
