You can use Sites and Services to create different subnets where these
Domain Controllers live. The clients will try to hit their local one first
and if get no reponse then they go to any that respond.

In a domain with a single site the client will pick a DC at random from the
site-wide DC list in DNS, it's not a case of which DC replies first.
Authentication requests are not broadcasts that any DC can pick up and
action.
In a single AD site it is assumed that all DC's are well connected and on
the same subnet so if this is the case all DC's should (in theory) be local.
If this is not the case you maybe want to look reconfiguring your AD sites.
What is your network topology like, are all the DC's in the same subnet?

Create new sites in AD Sites & Services that map to your physical office
location. When these are defined correctly clients will attempt to log on to
their local DC before trying a remote one.
