Instruction
The idea behind the guide is simple, we either need four instances(for "Who you gonna call") or two instances(for "That helped, right?") of the game running. The below steps are written with "Who you gonna call" achievement in mind.

  1. Launch the game, as you normally would. This instance of the game is where you will play the game and the other instance will just be idle.
    • Select the character of your choice and ensure the network mode is configured for LAN.
    • Update your graphics to low, cap the FPS to 60, enable "windowed" mode and change resolution to 800*600
  2. Go to the location where the game is installed, click on BorderlandsPreSequel.exe. Once the game is done loading, select the character, enable LAN network mode, downgrade your graphics, cap the FPS to 60, enable "windowed" mode and change resolution to 640*480.
  3. Repeat the above step to launch instance number 3 and instance number 4.
  4. Once you have all the four instance running, select "Find games" and connect to primary instance.
  5. Enjoy the game.

Issues
You may face issues with bifrost, I had my fourth instance crashing after selecting the character. Here is what to do to stop it from crashing.

  • Reduce the graphics to low on all instance, like crappy low.
  • [Optional] Try capping the FPS to 30 on secondary instances if required.
  • [Optional] I killed services(MS SQL etc) that I felt were hogging resources.

Okay i redid all the steps but slower and followed directions perfectly, and it worked! Thanks a million for this awesome guide.

The first one i launched normally as directed, but i am second guessing myself about switching it to LAN. I'm going to attempt it again.

You used LAN Network mode ? Also don’t launch game from the shortcut launch directly. Only the first game you would launch like you normally would and the rest of the instances are to be launched directly from the game executable.

i messed up somewhere, and i pressed find game on one of the instances, and i was met with a message saying i was suspended from SHiFT for a day due to logging in too frequently.
