Payday 2 LAN/System Link?

[[U.Corp] Microtransaction]

Is there any word on if the PC or any of the console versions of Payday 2 has LAN/System Link support? That's a major factor in buying a game for me, and I would rather get a console version if, say, it supports LAN but the PC version doesn't because of piracy or something.

I believe at some point they mentioned no split screen on consoles at the moment. Can't remember where I read though.

Uh...pc version not having LAN...is not because of piracy...it's because the game uses P2P connections.

Alright, I didn't even know the PC version wouldn't have LAN support, I was just guessing it wouldn't because the first didn't. Any word on the console versions having LAN functionality?

Do you seriously believe that? Please, don't talk about what you don't seem to have any knowledge about. A P2P architecture means that computers connect to each other, instead of to a central server.

Do you know how windows home groups work? It's a P2P architecture and work through your LAN.

As far as games go, It's not like a game with LAN support released in 1997 named "Age of Empires" that also used P2P didn't support LAN. Please, don't say things when you don't know what you're talking about. Or maybe you've heard of "Starcraft"?
Please. P2P actually makes hosting LAN games easier.

@Shiraz : No just no :'-)

Since it's been bumped and nobody (thanks overkill) was able to give a definate answer, maybe I should: Payday 2 has no LAN or system link functionality on any of the three platforms it was released on. Dissapointing, as that was the only reason I would have gotten a console version of the game. If you're looking for a game to play over LAN with friends - this isn't the game for you.

P2P stands for Player to Player, a P2P architecture means that computers connect to each other, instead of to a central server. Do a little research before calling someone a "dumbshiit". By the way, you should check your spelling.

Same here. I didn't notice it was two years old until I reached comment #7.
