Question about buying two copies and playing MP online over same IP

Post by UglyElmo »

I am thinking of buying a 2nd copy so my son and I can play together online, but I know certain servers, such as Steam have a problem recognizing two separate games from the same IP.

I am wondering if any of you have bought 2 copies and are playing online (not LAN or Direct) over the same network IP?

Should this work ok? I don't want to buy another copy and find out my son and I cannot play together against some of our other friends who have bought the game.

It will work fine. That's how I tested most of the time. I would even run two copies on the same machine :)
