[TF2 X64] Interregional Party Queue Issue
This issue is not 64-bit specific, but it is still present in x64, feel free to change the title's tag if it is being misleading or misused.
It is not possible to join a party leader's (from a different region) match if you don't initially queue together with them - pressing the "Queue for your party's match" button just leads you into an infinite queue waiting time, even if the party leader's match has both teams half empty.
Neither ping limit set to 350 in matchmaking settings, exiting and rejoining the match's queue, nor exiting and rejoining the party helps.
There's currently no way to work around this issue that I'm aware of. Tested over time attempting to join multiple NA users as a SA user after they've already joined to a casual match.

Seems like a partial dupe, as this issue talks specifically about joining a party that's already in a match (but that is also mentioned in a comment).
Joining a match in progress through a party always takes ages even if you're in the same region, sometimes never joining at all.
