Can you please activate the 'Return to Home World' button in the character screen?

Having the same issue. "Unable to select Hyperion as a destination for Return to Home World requests at this time." and also cannot log into the world they are currently visiting due to congestion (Error 3088).

The inability to return home message sounds like it's related to the server congestion status (set by the dev team) instead of actual traffic. The queue to log into Hyperion right now is 38 when I tried with another character, so it's either not reading the congestion the same way as it does for queuing or there's some delay on the status updating.

I would really, really like the ability to play the game as this character. Ideally by being able to return to my home world, but if I could at least queue into the world I'm visiting that would be okay for now until the returning issue is resolved.

I'm a traveller from balmung, and was unable to go back to gilgamesh before the maintaince because I continue to get denied before the maintance hit, this is 20 minutes ago before maintance.

Now I can't play or experience the expansion because my character is stuck in limbo, I can't log in to balmung, I can't return to home World, I can't even be able to move to a different world, I can't even move to a different data center to go to dynamis what don't have these issues.

I feel like I'm being punished for helping folks out.

They did suggest returning to your Home World before the update in order to avoid congestion issues.

From the pre-launch announcement:

Additionally, characters that were visiting another World prior to Patch 7.0 will still be able to return to their Home World regardless of traveling restrictions, but their ability to return may be temporarily impeded by periods of server congestion. As such, if your character is currently visiting a World that will have traveling restrictions, we advise returning them to their Home World before Patch 7.0 maintenance begins, as the restrictions will lower your login priority.

Same issue, unable to return home to Behemoth and will not queue me up to log in to Gilgamesh.

[DaemonMorden]

This is the kind of shit I would expect from Blizzard not SE....

Back to Elden Ring while my character is stuck in limbo due to short sighted decision making.
