EASHL Servers

Did something change with servers ? Are you now being connected to the closets server based on your location when searching for game ?

Recently I started to notice that either for 3’s or 6’s I’m only being connected to EU servers. Back in 24 or when this game was released I also got into lobbies with people from either US or Canada but now I won’t unless I play with someone from friend list who is in one of those locations.

Is what I mentioned above correct ? If it is, is there any workaround to get connected to different server ? The reason I ask is that I play in early morning hours and it’s hard to find EU game. Ping is not really an issue as at EU server I got 20 and at US/Canada I got 90-100 and honestly I don’t see any difference as the game feels the same as at 20.
