Further testing in this room indicates you can log into (and out of) this room. Also, if you are standing near one of the doors, when you log in, you come in through those doors (just like you do to get under the map in the first place). It is not a separate map, like instanced missions - the one under PI still uses the PI general map, and you can hear broadcast messages even inside the Matrix Room.
Now to decide what to use this room for in filming...

EDIT - Gah, nevermind, I was at the wrong door. There is one that looks suspiciously like the area you're supposed to be at, I saw another person trying to use the same one in fact, and I was trying to use it. Just got the right one. As everyone else has said, this room is AWESOME and I'd love to be able to use it in AE for a mission. Would make an awesome map for a straight up showdown with a virtual villain or something. |
No problem. I had a couple wrong doors myself as I don't have much directional sense using the coordinate system.
Clicking on the linked image above will take you off the City of Heroes site. However, the guides will be linked back here.

That depends on how you stack them - if you just bundle them into the room, you won't fit as many in - but if you arrange them standing upright and shoulder to shoulder around the walls in decreasing circles, and then place more in the same position on the heads of the first layer once it's full, and keep on doing this until the last layer touches the roof, then you'll be able to store way more.

No one has ever actually seen anyone gathering there - but it has been rumored that the accounts of players in the area when these meetings were said to have taken place have been wiped, and the account holders themselves have disappeared.

You know, the funniest aspect of this would be logging in while someone is already inside the room. The door opens up, and you come casually waltzing in.|

"Hey! How did you get here!!?"
"Through an entrance in Skyway City." Bonus points if it's during the Halloween event. "I was just clicking on doors while trick-or-treating, and next thing I knew, I ended up here. I don't remember which one it was, though. Wow, this place is really cool, what is it?"
We've been saving Paragon City for eight and a half years. It's time to do it one more time.
(If you love this game as much as I do, please read that post.)
I say add a 1% possibility to end up in there when trying to enter a mish, and to get out you have to pick a door which leads to a random hellish mish (hospital will set you free ), or if you pick the right one, a chest which rewards you with a random purple and exit to any zone you want.
...oh, and of course a 1% badge.
Any and all spelling, grammar and logic errors are intentional so this post will blend seamlessly into the Internet

I just want to say though, going under the map is considered an exploit, and you could get in trouble for that, specially since you can kill enemies from down there without them being able to touch you... |

So, as mentioned, you want to go here: -1630.5 1.3 -6497.3 Here's what it looks like.  Here's a couple of back shots.   Then log off. Log back on and you're falling.  Pop your map and select the Arena. Then fly towards it.  You don't want the box DIRECTLY under the arena. There's a pair of them below it.  Get all the way underneath and do a /stuck. Your system may freeze a sec, don't worry.   Metadata gives me this: coh:x=911 , coh:y=-1048 , coh:z=-3607   As noted, you're going to need some way out of there. The Ouroboros portal should work. The Market or Base teleporters should work. A teammate with Team TP or ATT should work. The Pocket D VIP Pass works.  |
I used to know how to get under Faultline, Atlas Park, Siren's Call, The Hollows and Cap but they fixed them after I had posted the directions to get under those places. Siren's Call was the fun one but I got a temp ban for that. :\

Ahh crap! I left my Blaster in there when I logged off.... He's a goner for sure...

This reminds me of when arena first came out.
Fun fact: The reflections on the floor of the arena aren't really reflections, but an upside down arena under the floor.
There should also be one of those matrix rooms under the other arenas.
Good times.. Good times...
