Live Multiplayer Test #46: How to Play (and sneak peek of the flight tutorial)
Welcome to the 46th Livestream Multiplayer test for Rank: Warmaster. The original stream was on Twitch ( http://www.twitch.com/rankwarmaster ) but I recorded the video in 4k60 for Youtube. I realized that there aren't actually instructions on how to play Rank: Warmaster. So the main topic of the video is actually how to play. I start by showing a small piece of the flight tutorial as a sneek peek (Prologue 1). However, I eventually do a single player game and start to explain things as the enemy AI start to kill each other. I try to keep the rambling down, but sometimes I fail. ;) Unfortunately, OBS isn't showing my mouse cursor.
