PC Cannot connect to Tripwire official AS/SG servers. Custom servers work properly

When I try to JOIN GAME that is being hosted on a Tripwire official server, nothing happens. I live in India so the ones providing me lowest ping are Tripwire AS and SG servers. This started to happen after the Halloween update landed. Earlier it used to show me "Connection to host lost" when I used to click JOIN GAME. After a few days, the behavior changed and now I don't see anything. However, if I try to join a custom server that is hosted in Singapore (SG) or anywhere else then I am able to join without any issues. This is troubling me a lot as I have to play games at a higher ping (around 200ms) when the ones providing lower ping are available :(
I have a 100 Mbps connection.
Before the Halloween update, all the Tripwire official servers used to work just fine for me.
LOVE THE GAME. Somebody help (0_0)
 
This likely indicates that your ISP has blocked connection to our GSP provider in some way. If you can try connecting via a hotspot/vpn that would help narrow it down to this likelyhood.
Thanks for the quick reply :) Appreciate that.
I tried using a VPN (via Romania and US) and I was still not able to join any Tripwire official AS/SG server. However, I got to know that I am able to join Tripwire's official US/USE servers with/without any VPN. Unfortunately, they also provide me with a very high ping. :(
I also tried using a hotspot and got the same results.
I also got to know that there are some of Tripwire's official NL servers that I can join and some that I cannot.
When you said what you said, it made sense to me and I thought that was it. But this all is becoming weirder :/

No, the game is simply broken. Several people right now can't join any servers through the browser. I was able to join just fine a few days ago. My ISP changed nothing.

Thanks for the information. We are attempting to replicate your experience to see if we can't identify what may be happening.

Which methods are you all using for connecting to servers? Which platform are you playing on, Epic or Steam?
I am using Epic. My handle on KF2 (as well as on EpicGames) is haZm95 if it helps somehow.
I am using Server browser to connect to a server. I did try with Find a match as well but it puts me to a high ping server which I can join normally as well. Also, it doesn't matter if the AS/SG server that I want to join is empty or not. I just can't join.
I have a friend who is also on EpicGames and he is having the same problem.

I'm using epic too, can't connect to anything from the server browser. When I use 'find a match' public I get through the 1st wave and get kicked out of the server.

Wanted to also report this issue. Unable to connect to official TripWire SG and AS servers but I have no trouble connecting to other servers hosted in the same locations. Here's my traceroute for the Singapore IP:
