Lan Play in RO:O

[Moz]

For playing on a Lan, you I have to have copies for each machine?

I have a home network with several computers and it would be a sore to have to purchase a copy for each of them if I wanted to play with family members.

you could do it with the old ut2k4 version, but now its on steam. I guess it'll be thesame way as hl2/cs:s/dod:s, i don't know if its possible with those games but if it is you'll most likely be able to do so in RO.

Yea great question id also like to know, how did people have lan games with counter strike source did they have to get multiple copies of hl2 because of steam.

Think you'll need individual coppies of the game and an internet connection to verify your steam account even tho its for LAN play, I'd like to be proven wrong tho, any1?

I'm afraid you're probably most certainly right.

I m pretty sure you can launch Steam offline, so i think it will playable in lan.

You can start servers in offline mode but steam will not let you join a server when you are in offline mode. Steam also makes it so you cannot be logged into on account multipul times. Ive tried my mate wanted to play CSS against me he doesnt have a steam account so we tried the offline mode and it wouldnt let you connect to a server. We tryed online and couldnt connect to the same account as soon as you try to login on an account thats already loged in the person that was logged in before is disconnected.
