Did the Return to Castle Wolfenstein demo expire? I can't find any servers to join. I went to the activison site and it looks like they're still letting people get the demo so I don't know whats going on.

I doubt it, might be a connection issue, but then again, the full game is already available for pre-order, saw the "coming soon" boxes today at Electronics Botique(I hate those boxes, recently!! Looks like the real thing and it's like "AWESOME! GIMME!!" then "aww, damn").

I cant get any servers either. I tried it for the first time today, it sat and tried to refresh forever. Hopefully a temporary problem. If its working again for someone plz post here.

It's a "known issue". It's the trying to connect to -1 servers error. It has a clear workaround that the designers made, which doesn't work!!!:mad: Here's a quote from them:

"Known Issues

-I cannot connect to a server. I keep getting an error message that says "Connecting to servers (-1)".
---This is a known issue that we are in the process of fixing. You can get around this by opening the console with the ~ key and typing "ping wolfmaster.idsoftware.com", without the quotes. You will need to do this each time you start the game. "

Get around it my cat's @ss! :mad:

It was a problem for a lot of people, it was something on their (designers/maintainers) end, not ours (players). It's been solved now, at least for me.
