Does steam download region affect the dedicated servers you get connected to?

symptom101

I know that steam has way more regions than available DBD dedicated servers zones, but does changing the steam download region affect in any way the dedicated server the game connects you to?

I gotta wait 20+ min for a game as a survivor and it is driving me b@lls

I just checked with one of the network programmers, and he confirmed that the client pings the servers to figure out the best one to connect to. Your download region in Steam is irrelevant.

Thank you, I appreciate it! Guess I just have to get some pop corn and watch a movie while waiting for a lobby...Cheers
