weird behavior with vpn and game servers (only european servers show up with vpn on)

[bababooey]

No matter what country I select as a server, the game only detects a handful of european servers. Even if I switch to a server of my own country, only european servers show up.

It was working fine the day before yesterday. Switching to Miami servers was placing me on the US east servers.

Pic is with VPN on:

(amsterdam, paris, stockholm servers)

Playing with VPN on will always place me on those european servers. (even if im using any VPN servers but european)

 

Pic bellow with VPN off:

(lists servers from all around the globe)

 

Its like Kaspersky is intentionally screwing me up and blocking connecting with certain servers. I have a """"unlimited""" vpn plan, but it looks like its limiting me.

Game is Deadlock. (which uses same connection protocols as counter strike 2)

please note that this behavior does not happen when using VPN from other companies
