If you want to play with just your friends you will need to rent time on a server or a actual server, I think. |

![]() A LAN is a term used for 'LAN Party' where a group of people have their PCs in one room and play against each other. So if you are playing against each-other from 'miles away' you are playing 'online' not on a 'LAN' and thus are using the wrong terminology. |

| Yeah, rent a server, it's expensive though. You may be able to rent time from someone who rents their own server, which would be cheaper. |
