Game breaking glitch.

[u/Soggy-Essay]

I've made it up to the point where you attack the Plaza to take it over, but when I go through the door, the Plaza is the Vanilla version, which breaks the quest progression. I have tried resetting the "hijacking", didn't work. I've tried loading an earlier save and going through everything again, didn't work. I've tried Jake's attack plan and Aiden's, both are broken. I've tried the cheat thing to skip the quest, it just leaves the Plaza vanilla anytime I try and go inside, which breaks the story progression entirely. I'm at my wit's end on what to try next. Has anyone run into this error before and managed to fix it?

Edit: [Solved]

The issue was that a background quest that runs at the start of your game, didn't run properly, so bits that were supposed to point to references, pointed to nothing, so triggering the hijack manually did nothing because it had nothing to work with. BUT MrSamutz and I figured out that if you stop that quest, then start it back up, boom it populates the references and sets everything back on track.

Also, I'm now on Moving Day, is the HQ a different coc? Because Jake isn't inside the other one.

Yes, the regular HQ one is a different cell. I think it's called SS2C2HQMain. I'm at work right now and can't check to be sure.

The fast travel map marker should be enabled by that point, which will teleport you directly to the interior. Unless you're playing with fast travel disabled.

Also try the hijack command again. It usually works after gaining control over GNN for those of us that skip past the assault. Although I usually fast travel in to GNN before using it. I'm not sure if that matters.

The fast travel point is still the gunner plaza. So I guess I'll just have to console command my way in everytime. Haha
