Please answer I really need to know it would be much appreciated :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Anarchyihdi 151 Posted September 19, 2012 LAN is a Local Area Network, if you're all using the same internet then i guess maybe it'll work? never knew you could just host a DayZ server though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

joeoblong@yahoo.com 614 Posted September 19, 2012 Sounds boring to start this game in LAN with your friends.I got a character n a password protected private hive server with like 15 other people. It is'nt that bad, although i do prefer live servers. We've had some funtimes, but it can get boring from time to time. We all play live servers as well. Just a fun distraction i guess.

christopherwright_75@hotmail.co.uk 109 Posted September 19, 2012 No your friends can't join your LAN just because they live nearby, seriously go read what a LAN actually is.You would need to make an internet server then password it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
joeoblong@yahoo.com 614 Posted September 19, 2012 so can i make a private server in LAN and people still join or does it have to be a public server just passworded?Renting a server is pretty cheap. I haven't a clue how to make it a private hive tho... thats just magic beans and flying pandas to me.No your friends can't join your LAN just because they live nearby, seriously go read what a LAN actually is.You would need to make an internet server then password it.This.

Michaelvoodoo25 3120 Posted September 19, 2012 I would like the standalone to have the choice of hosting the game for myself and a few m8s, It would have my brass either way. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
