RiseAgainstWhat 0 Posted August 3, 2012 My mate really wants to play DayZ, but unfortunately his internet cap is so low he can't download ArmA II or OA. Researching it, it seems I can transfer my arma ii operation arrowhead folder in C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common to same location on his computer as long as he buys the game and expansion and verifies the files. My question is will transferring it actually work?Also, I know my CD Key is tied to my DayZ character and I assume the CD Key is contained in the arma ii operation arrowhead folder, so will steam automatically replace my CD Key in the folder with a new one when the files are verified or will my friend and I with the same character or something? Any help is appreciated. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MrMissalot 2 Posted August 3, 2012 Should work, i suggested the same technique to my friend for battlefield bad company 2 and it worked.It might just need to verify and download a few files. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BobDole (DayZ) 129 Posted August 3, 2012 you could try making a steam backup and then run the backup on his pc. also i dont understand how your internet cap is too low to download arma 2 you shouldnt be using the internet if thats true thats awful. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RiseAgainstWhat 0 Posted August 3, 2012 He's only got 12GB a month and if it goes over it costs a stupidly large amount, so he doesn't want to risk it. I guess we'll just try it out and hope it doesn't screw my character! :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BobDole (DayZ) 129 Posted August 3, 2012 it wont do anything to your character i can be sure of that the cd key is registered to the steam account 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
