changedYou can now play BFF or Die online with your friends directly in Steam! Previously we told you that you can do that using Parsec's free service and now you can do the same using Steam's new "Remote Play Together" service. It's still in Beta so here's how you opt-in:
addedGo to your Steam settings and enable "Steam Beta Update", which will update and download a new version of Steam.
addedLaunch BFF or Die, open your friends list (press shift and tab together on Windows), and invite a friend to play with you by selecting "Remote Play Together". Your friend must also have Steam Beta enabled.
changedWe tested with 2 players in different regions of the UK and it was a good experience, there was some minor lag but not enough to affect the gameplay too much. We used Steam's in-built voice chat too and for the most part it worked well. Of course it's not the same as being in the same room and playing on the same PC, but it's the next best thing.

Which ever of your friends has the fastest PC and the best internet connection should host the game. Only the person hosting needs have the game downloaded and installed.
