download and transfer?

Is there a feasible way I can download this game here at the school where I work now and copy and paste the folder over to my home PC .. ala World of Warcraft?

 

any thoughts?

    Pay attention in school rather than trying to download games.

    Perhaps you should have paid attention in school .. I wrote "where I work" .. lol .. but seriously the download speed here is blazing fast .. so DL'ing it here would be way easier than at home

    To answer your question yes. Although sometimes schools actually block things like this I think..

    DL it, put it on some type of external device if you have the admin rights for that. That way nothing gets corrupted and take her home to transfer files from external device onto your home system and install..

    PM before you report at least or you could just block.

    Excellent in the process as we speak .. it is DL'ing at 5.5 MB/s . mucher faster than it would at home. .. So .. just copy and paste the file out of programs after it is downloaded and drop it in programs after I get it home make new shortcuts and whalaa?

    You're not going to actually install anything on your work computer. You're just going to take the install files off of that computer and put them on something like a USB drive. Then take that home, scan it (Make sure no viruses picked up from work computer), and place them on your system.

    Then you will run the file like you normally would if you had just downloaded on that computer at home..

    First off, this is great irony because you didn't pay any attention to what he actually wrote in the post...

    Secondly, even if he was a student, he didn't ask for a lecture, and you're a complete prick for presuming he needed one because he just happened to be on a site looking to download a game.

    Anyway, at least the OP got his answer and is apparently having better luck than I am downloading this thing. I can't log in to the Launchpad to download or anything after installing from the site...

    But then, it did only download DirectX for some reason then completely stop.
