I am wanting to host a lan party with friends for CSGO, but the location will have patchy internet access. Following the introduction of GSLTs and the removal of listen servers, is it still possible to host a game without internet access?
i.e. is there a way of starting a csgo dedicated server for a LAN game only, without needing to connect to the internet?

you can see details of your server (e.g. IP).connect <IP>
.Matter, that neither Achievements nor the EXP System are available off-line. Connecting should be also possible via the client (Community Server), but I don't have personal experience with that and heard that it is buggy.
Don't forget to allow CS:GO through the Firewall when the notification pops up.
