2 Installations possible?

Hi Guys,

i am new to OOTP so, sorry if this was asked before.

Is it possible to install the Game on 2 PCs at the same time?
Because at home i play on my Desktop PC and during the week i do a lot of business travels, so it would be cool to install it also on my Laptop.

you get 2 licenses - so yes, you can install it on two computers.
the issue is, you'll have to save or back-up your league files (.lg) to a USB stick and load/restore them to the other machine if/when you want to continue playing the same game from one machine to the other.
i've not done this, but others have. they may know of an easier way, or be able to describe the process better, but yes, it is possible to do what you mention.

Great, that sounds very good.
So i can install it 2 time with the same Serial Number?

Transfering the Save File should be no Problem.

(I think most of the time i use my laptop)

yes. in the past there were 2 licenses given with each purchase. same serial. so it's most likely the same with 19, when it comes out.
