First i got to admit that i was about to download illegaly empire total war on mininova but the download was so slow i decide to purchase the game on steam, i just want to know if i need to reinstall the game if i want to play it on an other computer, because I'm downloading it on my computer right now, but i'll play it on my sisters computer (mine is 7 years old)

I have to download it on my computer because her connection keep cutting off when downloading for a long time

thx in advence for the answer

sorry for the broken english

what!! no answer yet

Steam is wonderful at allowing you to install games on multiple computers as long as you are not signed in on more than one at a time. The only thing is that I'm not sure you can transfer the file over to another comp or if you will have to re-download it on your sisters computer, hopefully someone with more experience can help you with that.

Enjoy the game :)

i saw on wikipedia that the game is downloaded to their server but it's linked to my account so i hope i won't have to redownload it
anyway thx for your answer

You can play on your sister's computer. Since you aren't able to download the game on her computer, you can download the game on your PC, then burn the game into a DVD so you install Empire on your sister's PC through it.

my dvd burner is long gone, so i should stop the download? right? and do the painful processing of downloading it on her computer :( f**K

I think you either need to download/install on each computer you want to use. Once done though it's great. I've got most Valve games installed on 4 PC's in various places.

It needs to be installed one way or another, on each computer. Download, or burn it to 2 DVDs

You purchased the game on steam. Therefore, each computer you want to play it on, you will have to install Steam and then re-download the game. There may be a way to burn the installation files to a disk, but I don't know of it and you will still have to be logged into Steam before you can play it. Just make sure that any computer you install steam on does not start and auto-logon when Windows starts, because only one computer at a time can be logged on with your account.
