Cross-region multiplayer?

[Malidictus]

I live in Eastern Europe, I have a friend in the US. I'd like to play Multiplayer together, but we can't seem to make it work. I suspect it's due to region locking, as we both see a different set of lobbies. We managed to get it working ONCE, and I'm not sure how. His lobby showed up in my server list and I was able to join it. Got disconnected when destroying a large structure, and then couldn't get his lobby to show up again.

The game gives us the option to invite and join each other through Steam, but that just doesn't work. Clicking the Join option closes the Steam overlay, but doesn't actually join. Is there anything I can do about this - like change my region or enable cross-region servers? I know the connection quality isn't great, but I'm OK with it as long as we can play together.

Probably fare to early at the moment multiclient is way to unstable even for neighbors.

I mean it worked just fine when the lobby showed up and I was allowed to attempt to join. This feels like an artificial region-lock.

When I try to join a public server either I can't connect it or if it works I get ejected from ingame. They have released multiplayer too early. It needs more playtests. So thew multiplayer mode is like in alpha.
