Post Suggestion - No online play, but just LAN
I know that there is a thread that says there will NEVER be any..but cortex command already has skirmish where two people can play on opposite teams, how hard would it be to just make it a lan setup?

now I don't know anything about programming and how hard that'd be for you guys to do but it just seems like it would be easy to do. I really dislike having to use splitscreen to play with my friends, or could you add in some sort of support for 2 monitors?

And if this thread pisses you guys off just go ahead and delete it, I won't be offended =)

You can play LAN via remote screen programs. Search is your friend.

It wouldn't be really easy to code, unfortunately, but we have hacky alternatives for that :D

You could also use the "StreamMyGame" thing, though, that thread seems to have gotten deleted.

I'm guessing scoobster was trying to say "wouldn't." And that streamline thing, it works by having the Parent computer (the one with the best hardware) run the game and the Child computer simply send instructions, like movement and shooting. Am I right?
