Does playing in the in-game offline mode unlock achievements?

In Borderlands 2, when playing in-game and hitting Esc, under Network Options there are several modes.

  • Online Friends Only
  • Online Invite Only
  • Online Public
  • LAN
  • Offline

Will Offline allow you to earn achievements? I am talking specifically about the in-game option, I am not talking about Steam's offline mode, which is something different.


Yes, you will still unlock achievements if you switch to Offline mode inside Borderlands 2. Achievements for Borderlands 2 are generally never disabled.

The only way to miss out on achievements is due to synchronization errors with Steam itself.
