    I had that once. I think it happens if you came fron another (non-helmsdeep) server and connect to helms deep without restarting the game. If you exit the game, start it and then join helms deep it works.

    I finally was able to join. Then the game shut off and went to desktop with no error message. :(

    It was a fresh install, no other games in my folder, dl from the links given.

    Did u try joining the server again and does it happen if you join a normal coop or VS server. Finally, do you have the correct version of Helms Deep and placed it in the addons folder?

    I double clicked the installer. Yes it was the version that was linked in the first post.
    It only happens when I try to join that game.

    When I try to rejoin, the server is always full.

    That is because they removed the ticket requirement. Back in the good days of HD if you had a ticked you had a saying in who you play with and were able to build up really good teams. Now without the ticked every tom dick and noob join and you have really good players left on the outside. Therefore all noobs want helm's deep because it's free XP without them actually doing anything!!!!!

    I don't agree. I just removed the ticket requirement for now because HC is very busy right now and we needed to give the servers a boost. Besides I can see a lot of level 200+ on it so most people just play it for fun because it's a great map with great music and there are no rewards like vending machines or anything. Sure, a Shaman spawns now and then but the server has exactly the same configuration as Extreme COOP only now it runs Helms Deep, Extreme COOP was always empty, Helms Deep is always full.

    So don't worry about it, I have the entire week off next week and I hope HC has some time as well then and then we can start doing some serious work and make some progress again :)

    iam off entire week too, and i believe HC was also. gone be a fun week


    btw people dont run the .vpk file. just copy&paste into folder is enough.

    I totally agree Marvel. The servers really did need a boost and HD is the perfect answer. That said, it is still possible to farm in there so making it just for 1 weekend is probably a good idea :)

    I think this servers have to be only for weekends , because ppl is lvling up too faster , and using the map a lot , the others servers are empty.

    Is a nice event but for weekends not forever

    Need confirmation if this will last all week with Shaman or not. Debating on buying 10x if it will stay all week with Shaman in it.
