At work now, need pre-help for GR download later tonight.

I have two Hard Drives - CoH is on C: drive, which is stuffed.

I'd like to have GR live on E: drive, which isn't.

-Is GR a big download, does anyone know precisely how big?

-Does it have to go in the same Directory/Drive as CoH or can it go elsewhere?

I can always swap some other stuff to E: to make room on C:, just hoping I won't have to.

If I remember right, the pre-patch was around 600-700 MB. Not sure how much of that replaces existing stuff vs is new stuff, but I'd image quite a bit of it is new since the new zones are there.

Also, if you've played and logged off in the last week you may have already downloaded it.

As AquaJaws said, if you've played recently, you've already downloaded it.

If you still wish to move it, see BillZBubba's Guide for Moving CoH or Installing Test. Personally, I have it on my D: drive.

O okay thanks - I was on this weekend so I have it already, and without having to juggle stuff.

Thanks for the help!

Since this wasn't specifically addressed: Much like CoV was, Going Rogue is a large patch to the game, so you can't install it in a separate location.
