:P Osu! should have a play on LAN option so that people can multiplayer with friends even when they have no connection to Bancho or access to the net.

EDIT: Just found another thread on this, though it seemed to be pretty old and i don't think the user is going to manage it anymore...

only useful for tag. Very limited use.

That's not the main use :P
The main purpose of LAN is so that Osu! is not only an online multiplayer game, but also turns it into a game that can be played by groups offline too.

Well it's indeed sad to be the bearer of bad news but:

When I started making osu!, this was a high priority feature. I lanned a lot with friends. This no longer happens. I don't know if this is worldwide, but gaming has moved to the internet. I know the benefits of having lan support, but it's not a simple move and requires either a local implementation of Bancho, or huge netcode changes.
So, sorry imma have to deny this as a duplicate.

It's highly suggested you do your research before posting a feature request, even better, before even spending stars on it.

Exactly what part of playing a single player game in a group requires people to be connected? You're not cooperating or interacting with people in any way. If you want to talk to people, use your mouth. If you want to play the same song, play the same song. If you want to compete, compare scores.
