Forgot who said this while trying to take a base, but the quote goes like this. "I cant help you with ack, Im not in attack mode" This is with only 2 ack up in the town while troops were there, waiting. The rest of the town was down.

Let me guess.  He was flying an FW-190, right?  Failing that, an Me-109?  Because, reading that quote, I got this classic image of a cold, dark Hun flier just radiating pure evil, eyeing his next victim through his gunsight.

Agreee with most of the above. Everyone should always try and cover their own rear and not expect others to. That said, I'll try to give checks but my vox isn't working on my main computer and trying to type out warnings is sometimes impossible if you're engaged in your own battle.

What's the "check six" button? I actually gave one of those text check sixs to someone by accident not long ago but wasn't sure how I did it. I hit the wrong key but was so busy I wasn't sure which one it was and saw a check six, with my name on it, in the text message box.

That may, or may not be something I could do while I'm in a fight.

However, when a friendly whines about not recieving one because he expects them, well, he can forget ever getting one from me in the future.

i agree 100% and have my own "do not CK6" list. currently there are
4 names on it. one of the names on that list is a particularly sour fellow
who is constantly berating his fellow countrymen. i can't help it but every
time i see his wings fall off i LMAO. sorry but he deserves it.:D

I always try and  give a check 6 but do not expect the same thing in return, It's ok trying to pretend your the red baron and that your own skill or SA will save you, but there will come a time when you need a check 6, nobodys bigger than this game INMHO and a no check 6 will eventually catch you.

The key to it is simple
1- Expect Nothing.
2- Be Greatful For Any Help You Get.
3- Be Part Of THe Soulution Not The Problem.

I can honestly say that I have been pissed off by a lack of teamwork on more than one occasion. But complaining on about it 200 or ranged aint going to do anything more than make you as look silly.

I will admit, I get steamed and give a little "Thanks! You got yourself a kill by watching me die. Burn in hell you little..." but I always give check 6s. I cant count how many times ive died becaue im watching someone else's arse and not my own. But its worth it to hear the "Thanks, just in time, i got him!" over country. The utter lack of teamwork here is frustrating to no end!

bump for the answer.. I also did it by mistake somehow but don't know what the key is.

I normally just type out "chk6 " in the chat box if I'm not in a fight and can.
