Lobby Access Glitch Now Public

In a very bizarre move, Sega of America GMs have decided to allow all players to re-enter the Winter Mission Carnival event lobby if they wish to continue playing the event missions.

However, the door to the lobby is still locked. To get around that little issue, GM Edward actually posted the glitch that allows players to force their way into the event lobby.

The instructions can be viewed in this thread on the official forums, or you can read them below.

Hello, GUARDIANS!

As many of you now know, although the Winter Mission Carnival is officially over, the content is still accessible. This was due to an oversight on our part & so until the issue is resolved, we want to make sure everyone has access to it. Re-opening the door at this point through maintenance would require that the servers be taken down, which isn't an option right now. So, we're going to help you all get into the area as-is!

Some users may be able to access the event area if the door is already being held open by another player. If you can't access the event area, here's how:

1. Enter the Makeover Shop on the 3rd floor (the shop opposite the Event Area).

2. Exit the Makeover Shop, with the camera facing towards the Event Area.

3. Camera cannot be rotated (must face forward entire time).

4. Player can then approach the Event Area (with the camera facing towards the Event Area)). They will still receive the "tenet wanted" message, but then should be able to proceed into the Event Area normally.

5 ...

6. Profit!

It should be noted that another player must already be standing in front of the door when you attempt the glitch. Forcing your way into the lobby solo does not work.

There is still no word on when the event issue will be fixed, but for now, the Winter Mission Carnival continues (into an unprecedented seventh week).
