When you get to the entrance for the loading bay, notice that it is blocked off by a line of large boxes. It is possible to drive over these boxes and squeeze the SUV under the security gate, which will trigger the cinematic for the Boss fight against Sgt. Dwight. After the cinematic, you will be on foot again. However, if you look at where you entered, you will see the SUV is stuck halfway in the room. Get in the SUV and squeeze it in the rest of the way. You can now use it to kill Sgt. Dwight.
When you go down the the tunnels, go directly to the second maintenance room on the left side, following the arrow towards the mission. There should be a Servbot mask and lawnmower outside.

Shortly after Snowflake is full, a cutscene will play, and you will get "The Skill To Survive" achievement.
To make your level skyrocket to level 50 go out to Fortune Park and head towards the Atlantica Casino. Don't go in. Instead, follow the wall right until you see a maintenance door. There should be a stick of dynamite and a hunk of meat right outside the door. Pick both of these up head inside and combine them, to get the dynameat. Leave and head right to the fireworks stand. Grab some firecrackers and jump up on top of the stand. Lure a large amount of zombies near you using the firecrackers, then when you feel your group is large enough, jump into the middle of the crowd and use the dynameat, and get out quickly. The resulting explosion will cause your PP bar to go through the roof with points. All of the items respawn when you leave Fortune Park and come back so you can do this as many times as you like. This trick is still very effective at levels 45+.

To do this you need at least one other player. Start up a save and grab a magazine you would like to duplicate. Now have your other player do the same in their own game. Both save the game. Player B joins Player A and drops the magazine and leaves the game. Player A saves the game. Now Player A has two copies of the magazine!
