Coop LAN offline

[Kurr0]

in this case me and my brother want to play borderlands 2 coop LAN
but my brother doesnt own the game and i shared my game with family sharing.

the question is, can i play with my brother on LAN (offline) even if my brother doesnt own the game itself?

You can't play LAN, period.

And you can never access the same game while playing it, meaning as soon as you start the game, your brother will get a warning to save and shutdown the game and will be kicked out after a few minutes if they don't quit.

For online play, you need 2 games on 2 accounts. No LAN whatsoever.

but if you take a look in the game, in network options there is a LAN.
and if you get back to the main menu options number 3 changed from "matchmaking" to "find games" which is i believe that is looking for local area network only.
but im not sure tho, i've never done this before. thats why im asking this before i try

for offline play i mean steam is runnin' in offline mode and there is no internet connection.
