Family Sharing

[krisstijan]

Hello,

I have a question. If I go ''Family Sharing'' some of my games of my fathers steam account, will I be able to play Call of Duty MW2, MW3, Black Ops 1 and WAW Singleplayer, Multiplayer and zombies mode? I just want to know that so I don't waste my time downloading all these games. Thanks a lot for the answers In advance!

Check the games individually. Not every game allows sharing.

Also, your father shouldn't do that in the first place. He risks getting his account trashed for YOUR misdemeanours, as VAC-Bans are applied to the violating account AND the account that provided the game.

If you can download them through Family Share, you can play them, as long as your PC meets the requirements.
Games that can not be shared will not appear in the list of shared games and can not be downloaded or played.

How can he get VAC banned If It's ''Family Sharing''...? Why?

All his games are shown In my library, so does It mean I can play anything with multiplayer with no problems?

Because he's held responsible for all actions done with his games, no matter who played them.
If you cheat on any of his games, you both get punished. You, for cheating, he for enabling you to cheat.

If they are shown in your library in the Family Share section, then yes, you can download and play them.

But I don't know will Multiplayer work or the Zombies mode... And why would I get banned for Installing a game and playing multiplayer or singleplayer of It when Family Sharing...? Still don't get It.

Again, if you can download them, you can play them. How often do we need to repeat that?
You only get banned if you cheat. Don't cheat and you don't get banned. Not exactly rocket science.

Of course I wasn't planning to cheat. Thanks.
